I was pretty skeptical of Mike Flanagan's take on #Carrie going in but I'm really enjoying it so far, franchise scaffolding aside.

Apple TV’s social accounts are including additional text descriptions in posts for their forthcoming biopic Being Heumann, but not for any social posts for any of their other shows or movies. That’s weird, right?

Sometimes you think so much about what you want to talk about in the recording ahead of the recording you use up all the really cool thoughts ahead of time and remember you’re running on minimal sleep but nonetheless you keep going.

Emily Wilson's piece on Christopher Nolan's THE ODYSSEY for the LRB went viral and was received very positively by many — but not by virtually every film critic I know. For @animusmagazine.bsky.social I wrote about why: animus-magazine.ghost.io/a-tale-as-ol...

Emily Wilson’s piece on Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey evinces an archaic perspective on cinema’s value as art

It’s easy to forget how good this movie is with the vast marketing apparatus behind it and the overall flood of comic book movies, but damn, this one really holds up. Also it’s wild this came out close to a decade ago.

🚨 New Episode Alert! 🎥 The Matrix (1999): Podcast This 🎙️ According to Ben, the Matrix is the most influential movie of the last thirty years. It's cool, it's gorgeous, and it might go overboard on the philosophy but, like, we can think of worse things. Listen where you get your podcasts 🎧️

Sekiro is the best From game by a lot. This is not dismissing the rest of the catalogue: however good you think the others are, Sekiro is just that much better. It really is a singular masterpiece.

Worf is looking cautiously/suspiciously at Riker. Riker has raised brow and a cheeky grin. Thier eye contact is strong as steel. Closed caption reads, "It's jazz."

Watched the Godfather again recently and it’s still a great movie, but post-Megadoc, you can definitely see the roots of some of Coppola’s later creative indulgences

Getting conspiratorial about "what's in the food" is a big, blinking warning light for impending chud-dom. What, you thought that Cheetos were good for you? You eat them because they're one of the most perfected lab-perfected foods that mankind has created, like the humble Dorito.

I also believe that our current trajectory could lead to a 'post-human world,' but maybe not in the way they mean. Further impoverishment, literal and figurative, of global humanity. A terminal devaluation of human labor, human ingenuity, and human value, survived only by the amoral and inhumane.

I tried giving Google’s AI a fair shake to find shoes in my hard-to-find size. Instead of sifting through the Internet to find stores carrying shoes in that size in stock, it just listed off the top ads and said “good luck.”
