It's true, #portland , Oregon doesn't have an "icon" like a space needle or any statues of liberties. But we do have a gorgeous, 99 year old temple of #film . 🙏🏽 https://www.spin.com/2025/10/portlands-hollywood-theatre-is-a-mecca-for-movie-lovers/

Hollywood Theatre has 70 mm screenings, festivals, cult classics, and an adjoining David Lynch themed bar!

I actually really like this one! A rarity in that none of the characters are annoying, they're actually fun, and you care when they die. Pretty brutal overall, too. Bear cg not great but far from terrible! (Not a fan of the cliched first death tho...)

Ha, it's basically interchangeable with the last M:I for me. Action is impeccable!

Rewatching SILVERADO via new 4K, and it remains a top-tier western w/a murderers' row of talent -- Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, Rosanna Arquette, Jeff Fahey, Brian Dennehy, Jeff Goldblum, Linda Hunt, Brion James, Richard Jenkins, Amanda Wyss, Lynn Whitfield, James Gammon...

Phenomenal creature design, a terrific Henriksen, solid/simple in general.

Am I keeping the new-to-me animal attack train going? Yes. Will I regret my movie choice? Probably. #NowWatching

I can see that. I'm a sucker for the setup -- SCARECROWS (which I love) is another one -- and better-looking animals are always welcome.

Night of the Rob Hunter @fakerobhunter.bsky.social · 1d

And CROCODILE 2? Yeah, it's still pretty meh. An improvement, tho, thanks to some gore, a better croc head, that sleepy eyed baddie, and Martin Kove.

One of these elite agents accidentally misses the people below and shoots the roof he's standing on.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Mmm, logical horror.

Night of the Rob Hunter @fakerobhunter.bsky.social · 1d

Not yet, and that's encouraging!

Night of the Rob Hunter @fakerobhunter.bsky.social · 1d

Oh, and he's playing a total prick. Very entertaining!

Night of the Rob Hunter @fakerobhunter.bsky.social · 1d

Tobe Hooper's CROCODILE, by contrast, is decidedly poor. Waited a quarter of a century to watch this one. Should have waited longer.

COLD SWEAT (1993) is a lot of fun, btw. Everyone having a good time, lots of double crosses, my boy Czerny getting naughty with erotic thriller queen Tweed.

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

Been wholly uninterested in TRON ARES and comfortable in my lack of interest, but that has now changed. Please respect my privacy as I desperately search for my nearest screening in IMAX.
