Caught it at the New York Asian Film Festival. It’s excellent, and definitely earns its many “mesmerizing” blurbs.

"Clearing" is negotiated between the distributor and a big theater chain; the latter is typically the main instigator demanding exclusivity. So it's notable that Imagine doesn't call out the chain conspiring with A24 (most say it's Cineplex). But these practices are alive and well in the US too.

Clearance practices have been a blight on cinema for decades. I watched several beloved indie theaters die because larger chains monopolized release deals with distributors. It's rich to now hear Regal, AMC, Cinemark etc lament "theaters are dying" after they successfully decimated the industry.

Is there an ethical way to get the answer without paying money to The MLM For YouTubers to sit through 2 hours of Ellis doing that exasperated millennial wine mom shtick?

A screenshot of a BlueSky post by Lindsay "Nostalgia Chick" Ellis, promoting her new Nebula video with the title "Yeah, But is Dolly Parton Really THAT Great?"

The answer is probably going to be "Yes, but with an asterisk," snugly buried inside hours of rhetorical packing peanuts and poorly lit cutaways to Ellis in Dolly drag smirking at the camera.

A more fitting outcome would be to leave both of them stranded on an island with nothing but a couple crates of Marlboro 100s and truck stop peptides

A YouTube thumbnail from the Apologia Comedia channel, titled “We’ve Never Wanted a Woman to Take Everything So Bad.” In the foreground of the image is recently divorced comedy podcaster Christina P holding a lit cigarette and baring her teeth in a strained Ninja Turtle grimace. Behind her are black-and-white images of her now ex-husband, extremely divorced comedy podcaster/trust fund baby Tom Segura.

The actual video is just dramaslop about their divorce and its implications for the Rogansphere. It’s not terribly interesting, and not even willing to reckon with P and Segura’s history of spewing hate and platforming fascist handmaidens like Andrew Tate.

There's a guy in the Brooklyn comedy scene (and promotes his shows using utterly atrocious AI) who often brags about being in the cast of OJ Simpson's prank show. In his telling, he was an innocent bystander to OJ's evil banality. Except it was 2006. Bro signed up to work with OJ in 2006.

In every festival lineup, you can always spot at least one instance of "A24/Netflix/Searchlight called in a favor"...

From the 2026 New York Film Festival list of Main Slate screenings, the Chris Rock directorial effort MISTY GREEN is conspicuously included despite 1) the very dire-looking trailer, and 2) Chris Rock's disappointing track record as a writer/director

Attention professional critics: the entirety of my next paycheck is yours, if your published review of the new Ryan Murphy series consists solely of the sentence “More like THE SHARTS.”

A poster for the latest Ryan Murphy migraine produced for FX/Hulu, an adaptation of the Bret Easton Ellis slip THE SHARDS. The image features a generic smooth-faced boy model wearing a collared shirt while submerged up to his shoulders in a pool, Blue Steel’ing at the viewer to let you know this is a very edgy character.

Not to bring down anyone’s fun, but how come we only get celebratory parades for sports or wars? Like, Scorsese didn’t get a parade when he got his Oscar. Is Marty unworthy of the Canyon of Heroes? Was Louise Glück’s Nobel Prize in Literature less impressive than the NBA Finals? You tell me.

Here’s my 100% sincere offer, @mayor.nyc.gov: if you finally ban the horses, I will quit my job and start a socialist co-op electric carriage tour company in Central Park. Our first carriage will be named “Fiorello Mamdani” in your honor, and we’ll give you and Rama the inaugural ride.

An electric “vintage car” e-carriage designed by Creative Workshop, first introduced during NYClass’s 2014 campaign to end the abusive horse-drawn carriage industry in Central Park and replace it with safer alternatives.
