digger is probably the most beautiful movie of the year and it’s a real shame about that script

well of course, the weird lesbians feuding in a rural massachusetts town is of far greater national significance than a group of men at one of the ivy league schools drugging and raping a woman and the school reducing the punishments for most of the men

In addition to likely layoffs, Disney staffers will soon face reduced benefits as the company plans to eliminate health insurance coverage for spouses of many employees. bsky.app/profile/thea...

photo of Josh D'Amaro with the text: "Disney staffers are on edge as CEO Josh D'Amaro prepares to make more cuts. Employees are being told to 'choose wisely' about whether to take Disney's time-limited voluntary early retirement offer. And starting next year, spouses will looks access to Disney health plans if they can get coverage through their own employers."

We've got an incredible lineup this year at the Virginia Film Festival. I'm SUPER excited to introduce the 30th anniversary screening of The Birdcage and moderate a Q&A with James Gray after Paper Tiger.

Jeffrey Katzenberg, the visionary who wanted to cut "A Part of Your World" from THE LITTLE MERMAID because he didn't understand the concept of an "I WANT" song? That Jeffrey Katzenberg?

The fact that every major news outlet includes vocal tics and hesitations when it’s a woman saying “like” and not when it’s a man saying “um” is itself wicked telling.

Digger? I dug it! Tom Cruise sails through as a man worth billions, just don’t bill him for the cost of saving the human race. Iñarritu, Bruté? Grab your shovel but don’t push and shove. When you get to the front of the line, dig yer ticket out of your pocket and tell ‘em your old pal Gene sent ya!

digger: didn't hate it, emmanuel lubezki is a genius and the film is beautiful. too bad it also has that script... what an incoherent mess.

Just thinking about how so many unionized media workers have been laid off, which means we can't pay salary dues, which really fucks over the whole "unions having money to do things" plan

By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

I assume anyone who points out how small the trans population is doesn’t know any trans people & I guess that’s what it takes to care? Because if you know even ONE trans person, like a person in your life, how can you think about that person and conclude it’s okay if they get thrown under the bus?
