iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

What the blurp omits that said journey involves stealing his late sister's body with his friends and hauling her along in a passerger's seat of a beaten up old car. A worthy addition to venerable genre of "dumb shit happening, everyone is mentally ill and incredibly stylish", I had a blast

A cold, sharp, sad examination of broken vulnerable people slipping, exactly what you come to Hiroki for. A second work recently about grooming, grief, confronting adulthood, individuality, yearning and collaborative creative process, funny how they came from such drastically different places

Coming back to the beginning and seeing the echo of Miao Tian (truly all time great movie dad) picking up the beaten up kids in the transcendental motion years later at the end of What Time Is It There made it hit all the harder. Tsai is simply such a blisteringly empathetic filmmaker.

Speaking of Shyamalan, I'm hopeful for Remains being geared more towards a character drama with a cool gimmick than a wild ride where the gimmick is the driving force, because those are the Shyamalans that hit for me Still not over everyone collectively memoryholing Knock at the Cabin

I'd dump the SW news on the pile of unrealized shareholder value juicers, but they ought to be desperate to get anything out at this point, so yeah, this Watts movie will probably get made. Franchise installments made for the sake of it, famously an oasis of creativity.

rotating an idea that halo is the defining media franchise of the 21st century. i look at how its been mismanaged for 20 years, no one working on it has a job, its games don't even sell anymore but. they cant let it die. the IP must continue. everything becomes halo on a long enough timeline

I have a new piece on Film Obsessive! This time I'm looking at Richard Kelly's cult classic Donnie Darko 25 years after its original release. Absolutely love this film and so happy I got the chance to write about it: filmobsessive.com/film/film-fe...

Richard Kelly's Donnie Darko: Pay Attention, You Could Miss Something

Richard Kelly's DONNIE DARKO remains as narratively mysterious as it is emotionally forthright, as seductive as it is unnerving.

You can be a normal big company publisher, run a major ad campaign, schedule events and then you get clogged up on the release day and Google will tell you "I dunno, in the evening maybeee, stay in line, we gotta review all this slop first", what a time to be alive

Veering into later Aoyama and I'm pleasantly surprised, the typical voyeuristic premise gives way to something more slippery, offbeat and novelistic, a studious exploration of stunted relationships, interpersonal distance and emotional unavailability, while retaining lighter sensibility all the same

Spoc @spoctavius.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Patlabor EZY continues to be pleasantly fine, finely pleasant, but also can't help but ask why even bother. Hate to be that guy, but man, Oshii did more with this a decade ago while straight up just remaking a lot of classic Patlabor. It shouldn't be that hard.

Really good!!!! Plenty of easy and harmonious comparisons to Kiyoshi Kurosawa, but this is such a unique and new sterile trapdoor spider patience of truly frightening evil preying on our shared 2020s miseries. So chilling, SO sad. MAJOR Feel Bad creep and ache. So many of y’all would love this.
