marty supreme wanted it too many different ways and lost all tension or propulsiveness as a result. the performance anxiety clung to it like grease in a dirty kitchen. absolute killer set/costume production, though. gowns, beautiful gowns

One month till we get a game for the elder Millennials who moved to New York City, read Pitchfork at night and Last Night's Party in the morning, and regularly had panic attacks on the subway because they would never make a dollar off their writing and shit shit shit what are they doing here?!

predators 2025 succeeds in complicating the subject matter and foregrounding empathy... but leveraging your own abuse to do the kind of gotcha you're trying to critique seems misjudged ngl

Ninja Gaiden 4 was one of my most anticipated games of the year and I'm not playing it in accordance with the BDS Microsoft boycott, and it turns out that actually nothing bad happens to you if you don't play a video game.

Caught Stealing out here showing that a film can get away with a lot of flaws if it's very entertaining. Maine Coon excellence!

Returning to Kurosawa after a Cuckor diversion and god damn Charisma is a beautiful film. Surreal and genuinely beguiling; did not expect to laugh so much, so hard. Only Kyoshi can make naff CGI feel so profound

But we don't care, because we won't buy them anyway, because we don't support companies that nakedly profit off of genocide and are specially marked by BDS for targeted boycotting, RIGHT?

And I've obviously been saying this a lot lately, but BDS does not expect anyone to drop everything made by Microsoft all at once. They pick very specific targets in order to get as wide a coalition as possible, and in the case of Xbox, even suggest different tiers of engagement.

Holiday (1938)

✔️ Razor sharp dialogue
✔️ Gorgeous people
✔️ Ciggies

Truly the essential factors of all good films. We've lost our way. Materialists EAT SHIT

Bigger Than Life is striking in how it eviscerates so much of America's bullshit so directly given the decade it was made. Genuinely disturbing ending sequence, too. Lynch was taking notes
