Hot take: Even though PRIMETIME features a sometimes shirtless Robert Pattinson, Eric Rahill is the most attractive actor in the film.

Over at Substack is an article I've been nervous about writing on but is something I've been meaning to write into words: The debate involving celebrity activism and the nature of voice in our current political climate. Take a look!

Lon Chaney made a few movies that keep you on the edge of your seat~ The Unknown, Hunchback. To think we only have 30 odd of his films with over 100 lost. Preserve film. Buy Physical Media. Watch more Lon Chaney movies. 💪🏻🖤💿🎬

My first #FantasticFest review is of Agata Trzebuchowska's feature directorial debut SICK, which I preferred when it acted as a "growing old is scary" thriller rather than when it more risque mode. Take a look!

An uneasy “growing old is scary” thriller with skilled direction that outweighs a mixed script.

Still mixed on DIGGER even after that latest trailer. Either gonna be a bold masterpiece or an overwrought mess IMO Not just saying that because I hate that Tom Cruise has revealed himself as a pro-merger suit.

I know we're not in such a reality, but ideally, the Oscar race for Best Original Song would be a match between Charli XCX and...Charli XCX. WUTHERING HEIGHTS' "Dying for You" vs. "Burial" from MOTHER MARY.

With all the positive buzz that PRIMETIME is getting, including for Robert Pattinson, I wonder about Merritt Wever in Best Supporting Actress. We've seen actors who are Emmy magnets translate TV success into Oscar love (Bryan Cranston, Allsion Janney, Sterling K. Brown). Maybe Wever this year?

Yay to all the Telluride raves of Julianne Moore in THE DEBUT.. But also, oooohhh dear. Already, I shutter to think what a certain actress fandom will feel about Moore being the likely Actress frontrunner lol

Figures that Tom Cruise will climb the top of the Burj Khalifa and do a fight scene on a biplane but won't pull off the super risky stunt of using his leverage to call out a merger that'll be very consequential for the industry he claims to care about deeply.

Morning fam. An LGBTQ young man moved up here (DC) from Texas under the pretense that his uncle would house him and now his uncle is saying he has to be out end of the year. He has a stable job at one of my clients but needs affordable housing. Any resources you might have would be appreciated 🙏🏽

While Nicholas Hoult isn't totally off the hook, I'm glad he stepped down from Harry Potter S2. But also, Kit Harrington. You surely already have money from GOT and..already playing Gilderoy Lockhart on the HP Audible series. You did not need this lol.
