Like it’s an incredibly effective movie - jagged, aggressive, unpredictable - but whenever a movie’s inchoate evil force is ID’d as capital-T capital-D The Devil, I’m like “ok, sure.” (see also: Hereditary)

Spooky Szn Watchlist (3/ ) NIGHT GAME (1989).* It's rare to encounter a movie from during my lifetime whose existence I have simply no awareness of - especially when it's got Roy Scheider in it - but here we are. Let's fkn go. (*first time watch)

Spooky Szn Watchlist (2/ ) THE EXORCIST (1973). rw. Friedkin’s movies are so horror-edged that great as this is, SORCERER hits harder for me (maybe bc i’m not catholic, but the devil scares me less than nitroglycerine)

Look, if organized religion has no haters, I have died, but like ... ... even I know that telling the pope to shut the fuck up is, at the very least, inconsiderate.

With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

Axing Pam Abdy and Michael DeLuca isn't just dumb, but it shows how this entire process is based upon WB as it was the day Zaslav decided to sell. It ignores WB's 2025 - Minecraft, Superman, Weapons, OBAA and Sinners - or worse, treats 2025 as an easily-replicable formula without its architects.

Much like how we never hear the Monster Mash, but rather a song •about• the Monster Mash, we never learn what the Night Moves actually are. Probably because they’re still being worked on.

I’m mad that a lawyer framed it as “this is the law and we shouldn’t put these boys on blast” not “this is the law which famously and historically gives rape victims an uphill battle.” I’m mad she used her legal prowess (and platform) to speak about law in principle, and ignore its practice.

You’re in a city, walking along on the street. You look over. You see a Waymo with its doors open. The Waymo sits in the street, baking in the hot sun, flashing its lights trying to get its doors shut, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that, Leon?

I'm not suggesting we go easy on Sunny Hostin - she said what she said, it was dumb as shit and she should probably not have a mic anymore - but I believe she's being offered as chum in the water so that we lose focus on the quieter, more powerful men who agree with her POV.

Women spend their entire lives navigating a civilization that, for 6000 years, has been openly hostile to their wants, needs, comfort, safety, health, intake, and output, but "we choose the bear" is a bridge too far for you? How will they ever manage without your glass-spined support?
