Anime-Gunpla-Tokusatsu-Le cinéma dork

I curse a lot, make dirty dad jokes and repost horny art, so 18+ only please
Pinned
Re-introductions are in vogue so here goes:

I'm SolFilms everywhere online but y'all can call me Tom

I'm a cringe millennial (35) not-too-pretentious cinephile and gunpla builder (also a Forteana and shipwreck dork)

I'm "that guy who talks in movie quotes" but it's 70s Hong Kong Godzilla dubs

Lest there be any insinuation that Dems spared their own. It would be tough for Kathy Ruemmler—Obama’s WH Counsel from 2011 to mid-2014—to come off looking worse in these docs the committee Dems released. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

the last twenty years of film has been an attempt by every studio to turn "movie" into "franchise" and it's been great for the middle managers who sign off on action figures and Funko Pops, terrible for people who want to see a movie and not feel like they didn't take enough notes last time
listen to these overpaid hacks complain about a nonexistent problem. "This never happened to the other fellow" is fine. People want an entertaining film, not Lore Mythos Legend Continuity Fact Sheet Official History
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

I genuinely believe nerdism's insistence that story is a thing to be quantified, compartmentalized into tropes and trivia, to be literalized, has been utterly poisonous.

...Thinking over that silly James Bond news, that there's this *pressure* to retroactively justify how Bond could have survived a point blank explosion to Die Another Day-

[drum snare]

Sorry, I had to-

One of the first online anime stores I ever shopped at, and still up and running after 27 years.

It sure is a good sign that there's a new Osgood Perkins horror movie coming out IN TWO DAYS and there's almost zero advertising, almost zero buzz, and no press screenings this week.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

You get to burning
Face it proudly, as befits you.
Those days when you're enraptured are pieces of your dream
You get to burning
As you pick up those pieces,
I can see (you have) the courage to aim for tomorrow, to be...
Going your days. Grow up 🎶

For those of you who haven’t been following this fight, Ana has been leading the charge against censorship by corporations, specifically payment processors.

Recently it seems someone figured this out and has managed to black list them from almost any way of earning a living as an artist.

We promised a big announcement today, and it'll take a few posts in a thread to introduce a big one...

Project A-ko Perfect Collection 4K!

A-ko in 4K is a big deal & this is probably our craziest kitchen sink disc yet, so let's have a quick introduction to what the release will be...

This is also a subtle piece of Islamophobia. Shapiro played an aggressive role (against local Philadelphia government) in sending armed force to dismantle the peaceful encampments at the University of Pennsylvania and seeking repressive tactics against rallies for Gaza.
You have to understand what pieces like this from the NYT are and are not.

They are not an honest assessment of the state of politics today.

They are a negotiation tactic—an effort by a calcified, right-leaning legacy institution to steer the discourse in a direction more palatable to elites.

They are also a barely disguised attempt to set two marginalized groups against each other.

Happy anniversary to the end of the ridiculous bloodbath that finally taught Europe not to put men in charge of armies if their family tree is a barrel cactus.

Project 2025 explicitly wants to categorize everything they don't like as porn.

Laws that target porn will target you.
