Words cannot describe the terrifyingly wonderful influence this book had on my 6-year-old psyche

Without hyperbole, in context of our current puritanical political landscape i think this is one of the most important, damning and prophetic books ever written

Do you have any idea what I was writing about Snow White here, because I don’t.

I say this as someone who loved Elio: the most important and pressing issue in world events right now is that someone at Pixar absolutely, direly needs to leak the Molina cut

We are getting low effort, lowest-common-denominator corporate sludge forever as animation and original storytelling will die. People make me legitimately so sad

I tried to get into this a bit in my review. It is maybe Sinners’ greatest strength that it at least pokes at why Christianity became an unshakable tenet of black identity — something almost no one has been brave enough to even bring up, let alone challenge.

Text that reads:

Blues as a religion

This isn't even grappling with the monologue given to Sammie by Delta Slim (Delroy Lindo), identifying blues — brought from Africa to America aboard slave ships — as a sort of religion, separate from the Christianity forced upon them when they arrived.

It's a bold, if potentially inflammatory statement: Coogler calls out a religion partially used to justify more than 400 years of slavery in the United States, against a people who so universally adopted it that there is now little more lonely an identity than the Black atheist.

It is also calling out the appropriation of Black music, borrowed from and exploited to the point that the genres it helped birth (including country) would come to be associated with anti-Blackness. In that monologue, and Coogler's choices on songs and who sings them, Sinners connects its vampires squarely to that idea, and the potentially damning cost of rebelling against it.

Watching Owning Mahoney for the first time, a movie where Philip Seymour Hoffman plays a Canadian banker with such aggressive commitment you can’t ignore the washrooms, sorrys and Swiss Chalets.

I was a late adherent to the Feiffer canon, but instantly fell in love after finding it. My profile picture is from a comic I discovered in a used bookstore. Felt too funny, honest and accurate to pass up. Here it is.

Fertile cinematic ground. Charter and Custody would both be good follow ups if you’re looking for more. Both fantastic, both conflicting

Mental gymnastics aside, literally the only requirements a movie needs to satisfy to become a Christmas movie is for it to feel like Christmas when you watch it. Die Hard’s “ho ho ho” lines are irrelevant; it’s snowy and feels nice. That’s why The Prince of Egypt is the best Christmas movie ever
