The Bride! weirdly shares similarities with Todd Phillips' Joker movies in how it wants to say a lot with its social commentary, but ends up saying very little. Yet, the swings Gyllenhaal takes are far more admirable, even if it works less as a narrative film and more as an extended music video.
"If A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS is any indication of what can be done in Martin’s Westeros, I think we’re in good hands."
@edgorteg.bsky.social tells us why this George R.R. Martin adaptation feels special! 🥰
Do you agree?✨

#Bugonia depicts a kind of paranoia that should spark debates around systematic oppression, but ultimately favors style over substance.

Park Chan-wook et al’s #NoOtherChoice premiered at #BeyondFest, and the film is “a crowd-pleaser that asks its audience to push back against capitalism before it consumes their humanity”.

Would love to see Demi Moore win the Oscar. Not only is it an incredible performance from an actor who has put in decades of work, but, I believe, it’d be the first time an actor won for a horror movie since Natalie Portman won for Black Swan in 2011.
Another year went by, and with that, we look at the results for the 2024 fall/holiday box office season. Our hosts will break down the biggest winners and losers, along with predicting what films will perform the best at the box office for the first quarter of 2025!

Not that the Golden Globes mean anything, but publicists around town rejecting the offer to have their clients sit down with Sebastian Stan for Variety’s Actors on Actors is especially funny now that he’s been nominated for Best Actor in two different categories. Talk about a missed opportunity.
