derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 20/02/2025i think i’m pretty happy with it and i guess that’s all that matters. but i’m hoping others will enjoy it too. 010
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 20/02/2025okay i’m almost finished with my new writing project for my zine. it’s a 10,000 word semi-autobiographical story that takes place over one day in 1998 and involves the remake of ‘psycho’ and a fugazi concert. 140
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 19/02/2025the fact that there’s some good stuff in it almost makes it even more infuriating because it was in service of such tone deaf dreck. i’m definitely avoiding ruben’s films from now on. won’t fool me thrice. 110
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 19/02/2025now that I’ve had a couple days to think about it…. I very much did not care for “heart eyes”. there’s more to like in it than in “scare me”, but it still can’t escape its own terrible script. 360

derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 06/02/2025“garfield: a tail of two kitties” has a pretty incredible cast that kind of elevates this little delight into a minor masterpiece…. but goddamn it, roger rees is so brilliant. he’s the anchor. you buy this ridiculous world because of him. 130

derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 02/02/2025ebert was so weird with sex. he acted like a 12 year old horn dog in that sense, but he was often at odds with films that showed sex in an explicit, challenging or thoughtful manner. 000

derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 02/02/2025yeah it’s corny… but this movie works. sure, the music does a lot of the heavy lifting… but I revisit it every few years or so and it always hits for me. 010

derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 27/01/2025there’s plenty of good ones, but the ratio is insane. musical biopics tend to be the absolute worst. for every “topsy turvy” or “yankee doodle dandy” you seem to get three dozen “bohemian rhapsody”s or that putrid judy garland movie. 000
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 27/01/2025are you messing with me? 3/4 of what they portrayed regarding newport is utter bs. Dylan “going electric” is just about the most overblown controversy in the history of rock and roll. and don’t take my word for it.. it’s all recorded. just listen to the records. 100
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 27/01/2025the leads are all fine except norton as pete seeger who is extremely fun to watch… especially when he is nodding his head approvingly with a knowing grin whenever he’s hearing a new Dylan song for the first time. 240
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 27/01/2025the dylan movie is so supremely stupid. the entire dramatic crux of the film is “will he go electric at newport 65”? there is literally nothing else to this insignificant piece of dress up hokum, except maybe a tiny guthrie side story that goes nowhere. 3150
derek demento @derekabbott.bsky.social · 26/01/2025honestly… if you think little things like laws and constitutionality are going to stand in his way, you really have not been paying attention. the old rules no longer apply. 010
