Noir Alley had Sudden Fear a week or two ago & her facial expressions when her character realized her husband was plotting to kill her were priceless, Nobel-winning eyebrow action

The jokes in the Code Name Diamondhead MSTing deflected from how MUCH of an asshole his character was--watching it straight was like, any woman in her right mind would look at Ian McShane's antagonist & say, "at least he actually likes my company, let's go"

Whoever first described the White House as the world's most luxurious memory care unit was spot on, grandpa lives in his own universe now & he's never coming back to ours

One of my best Discord movie nights was introducing @prairiehamster.bsky.social & @phosfate.bsky.social to Motern Media via Don’t Let the Riverbeast Get You!, worried they’d hate it, & now they’re all over me like “did you hear about Evil Puddle? Where’s Evil Puddle? Is Evil Puddle on Tubi yet?”

“We’re launching a huge investigation so if your leftist antifa groups suddenly get a lot of new members out of nowhere LOOK OUT—wait ah shit”

Re that scene, was just reading that Pete Postlethwaite was insistent on set no father would ever do that to his daughter & Davies handed him a piece of paper: “Here’s my sister’s number, go call her.”
