5, Global Majority director - Picking up on the original's ideas of urban legends, the legacy sequel "Candyman" (2021) also puts Black stories back in the hands of Black storytellers.

People in Israel and Palestine are suffering. It’s a war. It’s a genocide. It’s apartheid. It’s a state of permanent terror pitting neighbours against each other. It has to end. Is this motion helping with that? Nope. It’s pissing people off and making us look like we don’t understand the nuance.

30, 4K UHD - Sometimes a sharper image can make flaws that were never meant to be seen more obvious, but maybe "Hellraiser" is one of those films where it's part of the charm?

13, 1950s - The original "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" has been sat on my shelf unwatched for an embarrassingly long time, so made sure that got sorted pretty early on.

8, Psychological - Starting off with "Exit 8", not as horror as I'd expected, but still a clever film that does well with its limited source material. I've wanted to watch it for a while and it didn't dissappoint.

Ah yes, the mind is boggled by immigrants and tourists who don’t want to get abused and thrown into a secret nightmare prison for weeks or months before eventually being whisked away to a country they didn’t come from in the first fucking place. What a mystery!

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Wes Streeting continuing to push the govt line that the UK is not involved in the war on Iran. US bombers were taking off from the UK to bomb Iran & UK military forces have been actively engaged in blocking Iranian retaliation. "No part in this war" is a lie.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.
It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

Hey, who remembers that time that Arnold Schwarzenegger said that nazis and confederates were losers, and that if you support them, then you are a loser too? And then half of the GOP turned against him and said "Don't call me a loser?"🤡 And so Arnold told them again, louder this time? I remember!

“this government wants trans people and their families to feel safe and accepted in our society.” I think I can speak for most trans people and their families when I say, they don’t and increasingly they aren’t, precisely because of Labour’s decisions. How can they believe this stuff they type?

According to Merriam-Webster a terrorist is defined as ”a person who uses or advocates violence, destruction, and fear to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals”. Daniel Thomas is a terrorist, not a protestor, and if you support him, you support terrorism. bsky.app/profile/news...

The best kind of masculinity is the kind that doesn't give a fuck if you wear a tutu and have a beard because your daughter wants you to be a fairy princess. Or if your son wants to be on the dance team, not baseball. Men are not defined by what some idiot thinks is masculine.
