Tried watching Mandalorian and Grogu and didn’t even make it 30 minutes before I got bored and turned it off.

If you had bet me that Canada would go further in the World Cup than Germany and the Netherlands I would have told you to kick rocks. We’ve done better than we could have hoped for and even though we’re probably going out on Saturday I’m still so excited! 🇨🇦

I haven’t seen Mandalorian and Grogu but if Red Letter Media is publicly apologizing to the prequels, sequels, and rogue one after watching it, that says more about the movie than any other review could possibly say.

Bugonia better win Best Score. Can’t remember the last time I heard a composer absolutely go for it the way Jerskin Fendrix did. Best score of the 21st century not composed by John Williams or Howard Shore. Full stop.

Did anyone have F1 on their Oscar bingo card? As someone who thoroughly enjoyed the movie, one of my favourites of the year, I never once considered it to be an Oscar contender.

This looks great but the fact that Jared Leto is in it means it’s gonna make -$1 Billion somehow

Maybe this will mean he’s too busy to write and direct stuff. Everything people praise him for he didn’t do any writing on. His first solo writing credit was in S3 of Rebels. Everything before that was written by writing staff. He’s best when he has someone to push back on him. Just like his mentor.

My film hot take for 2025 is that One Battle After Another would have been better if the Coen Brothers directed it.

Wow, a movie that’s been in theaters for two whole weeks and is dropping on Netflix in 2 days is half sold out on a Wednesday night. But people don’t actually want to go see movies in theaters, do they? Surely not.

My theory is that Netflix knew everyone was going to cancel their subscriptions as soon as Stranger Things ended because they don’t have anything else going for them and decided to buy Warner Bros. as a Hail Mary play. Ironically, this makes me want to cancel even more.

Am I the only one that misses the days when you you had to wait 6-9 months for a movie to come out on home video? It made me excited to go out and buy/rent it. The anticipation made it feel special again.

I’ve thought about this a lot and I think I’ve come up with a pretty clever solution. Go with me on this. All you have to do is… write a James Bond movie. Crazy, I know, but it just might work.

Had the chance to see GDT’s Frankenstein on 35MM yesterday and it was amazing! If you have a chance to see it in a theatre I highly recommend it. I hope Netflix continues to expand their theatrical distribution because films like this need to be seen in a theatre.

I can’t believe how few emotions I felt while watching The Mandalorian & Grogu trailer. I think the biggest reaction I had was “huh, that title design is kinda neat”

Since we’re fully committed to AI forever now can someone create an AI tool that will properly down mix a 5.1 to a stereo mix giving priority to the dialogue track so I don’t have to constantly ride the damn volume button every time I want to stream a god damn movie?

Love to see Andor getting so much love at the Emmys. I think Severance is probably gonna clean up but this sends a message Lucasfilm would be stupid to ignore. Also, Genevieve O’Reilly got snubbed hard.

Watching Friday the 13th on Friday the 13th is a must for me. Decided to go with part 6 today. Which one are you watching?

I, for one, welcome our alien overlords. How can they possibly make things worse than they already are?

My 2 favourite Star Wars shows are Andor and Skeleton Crew. Two completely different shows in terms of tone and style but they both did one thing: they didn’t let lore and references get in the way of telling a good story. Whoever takes over LF needs to have that mindset.

Filoni hated Andor. This alone should disqualify him from the job.

I would’ve paid money to watch Andor in theaters. I still would, honestly.

If I could jump timelines these are the alternate versions of movies I’d want to see - Lucas Sequel Trilogy - GDT Hobbit - Vincent Ward’s Alien 3 - Jurassic Park with Phil Tippet’s Go Motion Dinos - Freddy vs. Jason meet Jay & Silent Bob - Complete version of On the Silver Globe What did I miss?

I think after Andor is finished I might be done with Star Wars. I can’t see how we’ll ever get anything this good from Star Wars ever again.
