Truly thought a graphic designer just did a comically bad job pasting in a hat from Google Images but pleasantly surprised to be proven wrong.

He probably won't get any buzz due to the film's low profile, but Rainn Wilson's performance in CODE 3 may be my favorite of the year. This movie rules, BTW.

Anyone who says there’s no such thing as a bottomless pit hadn’t seen the well of stupidity built by this fucking administration.

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Turtle-fam, @arrowvideo.bsky.social's Limited Edition #TMNT Trilogy box set is shaping up to be the definitive home video event of the year!

I've been authorized by the awesome folks at #MVD & Arrow to give you a little sneak peek at the booklet that will accompany the release.

"...feels like a down-the-middle American actioner with no particular authorial stamp... if you told me it was directed by, say, David Ayer, Renny Harlin, or Len Wiseman, I wouldn't question it. But I would consider it among their best."
THE RUNNING MAN is a Great Action Blast, It’s Just Not Quite Wright - Cinapse

I loved, loved, loved GOOD FORTUNE. An endearing mashup of IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE and TRADING PLACES. Laugh out loud funny, deeply empathetic, and an unexpected bromance. A personal top 5 contender for the year.

Guillermo del Toro's FRANKENSTEIN is MY Frankenstein.

There are some indulgences in this telling where @realgdt.bsky.social innately understands what the audience wants and gives it to them – small mercies that make it something to hold a little closer to your heart.

Guillermo del Toro is a filmmaker after my own heart. And while that kind of personal statement is hardly a compelling basis for a review, it's definitely the truest and most important assessment I co...

Amazing set! ALL of these movies are a blast, and 3 of them (TRUCK TURNER, COFFY, ACROSS 100TH ST) are straight-up ★★★★★, among my all-time favorite films.
