One of my biggest gripes with the MCU is that, by and large, there's no conviction in its story choices, because that would mean committing to something beyond setting up the next thing. The Marvel machine must keep on churning.

I don’t think of Jon Watts as a director, but rather as a group of producers disguised in a trench coat and operating under a pseudonym.

Brendan Gleeson points a gun at Colin Farrell who is also pointing a gun at his own head. Brendan Gleeson and the gun he is holding is labeled “Star Wars.” The gun Colin Farrell is holding is labeled “Star Wars.” Colin Farrell is labeled “Star Wars fans.”

John Carpenter is a big fan of Godzilla and wrote a lovely foreword for the book "Godzilla: The First 70 Years." Here’s an excerpt.
“Godzilla is the longest-running movie franchise in the world. Today, Godzilla is respected the world around, but the truth is that these movies were appreciated in silence for many years. It wasn't cool to be a fan of Godzilla. Well, I was not cool-but that was fine with me.
You now hold in your hands a comprehensive history of Japan's King of the Monsters, authoritatively written by two genre his-torians. This is, of course, a well-deserved tribute to a cinematic monster of unparalleled influence.
In 2024, Godzilla Minus One received an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. Fi-nally, in my lifetime, the big guy is getting the respect and admiration and ovations he is due. I'm a happy man.”

A world where a twist ending is repurposed as a video title. where a thing's climax has been removed, leaving an advertisment for the gap where it used to be. such things are commonplace in. the twilight zone

my love and respect for Larry David grows all the time pagesix.com/2026/09/22/h...
After the dressing down — which ended up having the crowd in tears, of laughter and joy, the agent writes — Emanuel recalls, “Seating Larry at the same table as Elon Musk: Not my best decision.” 
As soon as the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star sees the Tesla mogul,”he starts cursing, yelling, saying things many people would like to say to Elon” about the SpaceX’s leader’s politics. 
David was “right up in Elon’s face, before the dinner starts,” and, guests had to separate them.

Everyone suffers when mega corporations merge. The only “winners” are the executives at the top, and even then, the long-term ramifications ultimately carry a significant cost. It’s a short-term gain for a few, with long-term consequences for everyone.

Streaming really is the worst version of watching things at home. You own nothing, the presentation is subpar, there are advertisements, and the price regularly increases.

Disney bought Fox in 2019 so they could compete with Netflix. Since then they have laid off at least 7000 people, jacked up prices, repeatedly introduced ads until they're on every tier, and only last year turned their first streaming profit. The mergers haven't been good for anyone.

It’s the 50th anniversary today of the debut of The Muppet Show. One curious theme running through the recent J. Reitman movie about the launch of SNL was the contempt the film had for Jim Henson, who was aboard the first season and who is depicted in the film as a Hippie Artiste (derogatory)
