This “trailer” is nothing more than a privileged rich boy bragging “look at all the expensive stuff I now own!”

Former South Park writer, Toby Morton, created a website to track and hold the 7 Cornell r*pists (Matthew Ingalls, Johnathan Newell, Winston Lee, Gillio Lopes, Diego Sarabia, Scott Norris & Scott Kretzschmar) accountable. It's still being built but, here's the link: www.thecornell7.org

Apparently the biggest chode to ever chode it up doesn’t want people seeing this trailer, let alone the documentary. Which of course means you should share it with everyone you know. #Musk youtu.be/eY_8SyndC10?...

After seeing #ResidentEvil today, here’s my Top 12 of 2026, so far…

#ResidentEvil proves that you can make a nasty horror film and be funny and not be sooooo self-serious. Maybe we can give the horror films that focus on our “shared trauma” a break and just have creepy, gory fun again? This one also nails what it’s like to actually play one of the games. Loved it.

Everyone’s complaining about Jon Watts when they should be complaining about Simon Kinberg (Dark Phoenix) penning the damn scripts for the entire trilogy. 🤮

James Gray's Paper Tiger (tonight @ NYFF64): For me, his best--an exceptionally mature, grounded, emotional crime/family drama. Beautiful work w/ actors: Adam Driver is characteristically great, Scarlett Johansson is impeccable in a surprising character role, and Miles Teller does career-best work.

Today I saw the new 4 hour documentary Musk, directed by Alex Gibney. There were too many times to count that a sold out theater burst out laughing at Elon Musk, something he said or did, even sometimes just how he looked. I believe that is his worst nightmare come to life.

When I was younger my Papa had a duplex in Trenton, NJ. Every summer vacation we’d visit him, and every summer we’d take the train into NYC and come up through MSG. I haven’t been back since the towers fell, so my last memory I have of NYC the Towers are still there. (That’s me in the middle in ‘94)

#Tony breaks the monotony of recent biopics that place heavy emphasis on imitation by focusing on character, nuance, and learning from mistakes. He’s a little shit, but the heart and morality of the Bourdain that would later became a global sensation is there. Also Banderas should get an Oscar nom.

A ★★★★½ review of Tony (2026)
There are many life lessons this wonderful film can impart on both the young and old alike: 1. As important as it is to have someone in your life you can aspire to be like, it can be just as important...

I started my PhD program with an eight week old at home, sole income being my doctoral stipend, in a history program, in Knoxville, TN. And every month we got a new book to read to my son, free, mailed to us, so my kid, my kids, grew up in rooms full of books even when I had no money. That's Dolly.

It's a cliche, but I really did think Dolly Parton would live forever. What a force of light, energy, and creativity, whose power will continue to reverberate with resonance of the surest strum.

One episode in and #Lanterns is already cementing itself as a top tier DC project. If the rest of the show is this good or better it’ll be my favorite DCU project thus far, even over last year’s Superman. Aaron Pierre is great as John Stewart, but Kyle Chandler IS Hal Jordan.

This one’s a proper summer crowd pleaser. Full of moments that’ll have you gasp, and moments that’ll have you cheer. All of the old school Spielberg comparisons are apt, but DRM successfully imbues his own twisted sense of humor to make it feel fresh. Mean and fun in all the right ways! #FilmSky

I don’t know where this weird metric has come from that a movie is now successful if it only makes $1 billion or more. In the history of cinema, not counting inflation, only 65 films have hit that mark. 65. Yes, I know budgets have ballooned, but that is an insane ask of the majority of films.
