finally listening to the Trylove dirty dozen episode and it’s so wild that the podcast is just an hour and a half of static!

I liked THE KEEP considerably more than any of my co-hosts and was frustrated with my inability to more completely articulate why. If you're interested in hearing me try and fail to describe how something makes me feel, boy do I have a podcast for you (though really, listen to any ep)

No ghosts here — just special guest Tony Wagner! Back to help us dissect another movie compromised by studio meddling: Michael Mann’s very weird THE KEEP (1983)!

Is it a Mannsterpiece of vibecraft or a cult clunker?

THE DIRTY DOZEN (1967) still delivers hugely influential ensemble action, despite the action not really being the point.

Episode 348 covers this classic with both respect and cynicism!

Jackass 3D is back in theaters this weekend, so now's a great time to revisit one of my favorite things I've written this year about the series ❤️

Natalie @nataliesnotinit.bsky.social · May 30

Hi, I'm Natalie Marlin, and this is Laughing With The Pain (my @bwdr.bsky.social essay on Jackass being an unconventional form of community, finding queer belonging, and displacing the prevalence of trans pain)

Jackass: Laughing With the Pain

One of Jackass’s perpetual charms is that it feels like it can belong to anybody, that anybody can become a part of it.

I couldn't muster any enthusiasm for the preview screenings I had invites for this week. Instead I watched some pretty good movies that don't have much to do with each other. #LastFourWatched

Was so so fun putting this poster together for my favorite place to experience a movie—Twin Cities folks, I highly recommend coming out to see these films this weekend, especially THE INTRUDER!

Abbie Phelps designed this poster for our upcoming weekend dedicated William Shatner, before he would become known as Captain Kirk. Two long neglected and consistently underrated films both newly restored and deserving of a second look.

Today, your favorite navy of four is discussing THE LAST DETAIL (1973), Hal Ashby's ‘70s military bro drama with an unmistakable warmth and melancholy — and maybe Jack Nicholson's best performance.

The singing horse.

"Find Him and Kill Him".

Even just the cow suit.

It's crazy how funny TOP SECRET! (1984) still is.
