On reflection I think a lot of second-world fantasy stories vastly overestimate how many professional assassins the local economy can realistically support.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: 5 million years ago - a bunch of bedbugs lounge around in a living room, looking totally bored. Panel 2: another bedbug excitedly bursts through the front door and exclaims, “someone invented beds!” Panel 3: one of the bedbugs looks over their shoulder at the other and says, “you’re joking”

I find our peers' zeal for this man and his work both baffling, because are you really missing out on much if you skip Top Gun Maverick, and embarrassing, because he's the public face of a cult with slaves. I feel like this at least merits mentioning, at any rate.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

Viewing Carnival of Souls and Messiah of Evil as a double feature really did rewrite my brain chemistry. The pair are so in sync, perfect synergy and ghoulish symphony. Zombie apocalypses as the relentless void where the highway runs out, gas station signs against jet black. Goddamned Americana.
An eerie red sun An eerie, surreal hallway A man in the front row of an otherwise empty (and claustrophobically red) movie theater The sub over an eerie apartment

The push for Harry Potter the TV show is going to be completely enormous—they're debuting it on fucking Christmas—and it is the responsibility of TV critics to contextualize this as rewarding the world's most transphobic billionaire (which is saying something) in everything we write about it.

When the weather gets colder i think of one of my favourite horror novels, THE AUCTIONEER by Joan Samson. A quiet little nightmare about giving your soul away in pieces so small you don't even realize you're doing it. Wintry rural horror. Can't recommend it enough.
The cover to The Auctioneer by Joan Samson. Giant red letters dominate the cover, standing out against a bleak snowy rural landscape. in the top right corner is a barn and a man loading up a red truck with Perly's written across the front.

The text on the bottom saysd "explosibe...chilling...i challenge anyone to resist it after readfing the first few pages" - the new york times

I understand that it sucks to have to read a book you didn't choose as a kid but when people are like 40 and still going, "well assigned reading turned me off from reading" it's like, ok but you're 40. No one has assigned you a book in like 20 years.

You should absolutely watch The Prisoner, partly because it'll unlock so many pop culture references and influences over the years, but also because it is a timelessly gripping watch. You'd be shocked how good it holds up.

watching/reading JoJo's Bizarre Adventure makes me think critically about how often we worship at the altar of the Perfect Narrative, the Perfect Show, the Perfect Drawing. i find "imperfect" works like JJBA more inspiring. they make me realize a messy, retconned, wayward story can still be beloved

I recall some folks complaining that Eggars made a movie where New England witches were real, but that's what makes The Witch interesting: it's an exercise in taking the worldviews of the Puritan settlers seriously, in all of their repression, hysteria and terror.

Javier Bardem, Patrick Wilson, Amy Adams, Nick Antosca, produced by Scorsese & Spielberg, music by Bernard Herrmann AND Elmer Bernstein AND Jeff Russo — on paper, everything about Cape Fear works. In practice...it's even better. My review of a series premiere that feels like the fist of an angry god

Continuity and canon are imaginary. For me, Star Wars is the George Lucas movies and Andor/Rogue One and that's it. The Zahn novels and Dark Horse comics are realer than the Disney trilogy or the FiloniVerse. Do not say to me Exegol or Ezra Bridger. I don't know her
