I know “un biopic really really bad” is a reference to MJ lyrics, but it is funny to imagine a French critic being like
“Mon Dieu, zis filme est so sheetee, la belle langue française is insufficient to descroibe. Zis requires la vulgarité de l'anglais!”
still think she's onto something
Your phone will never take a good photo of the moon except for this one rare exception.
Some seminal children’s texts that get referenced, riffed on and repurposed constantly, like especially Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz (and also the movie).
Ideal relationship dynamic
Mike Nellis @MikeNellis "I'M NO LONGER CATHOLIC!" Hannity ABANDONS HIS FAITH for Trump NELLIS X.com • +*+
Amazing that in the national divorce the libs are getting the NFL, butter and cooking oil, being attracted to adult women, standup comedy, Bud Light, and now also Catholicism
A man with his nasty bare feet rubbing against the footrest at a movie theater, his flip flops discarded below
Straight to reeducation camps for men who do this at the theater.
mans best poster
2026 watch #68: mans best (at the Phoenix Film Fest). Eric Roberts is in this movie about a man who turns to crime to pay for his dog’s cancer treatment for all of 2 minutes. That somehow led to me leading a Q&A with him and after he posed with me like we were at prom for a photo. Life is funny!
Baby Love poster
2026 watch #67: Baby Love (at the Phoenix Film Fest). MMA fighter on the ropes ends up in equine therapy and becomes a horse girl. I respect the arc.
It’s good and you should do it
Doc ock
2026 watch #66: Spider-Man 2. Hey, quick thought, sorry if this has already come up, but what if we made comic book movies fun again? Maybe filled them with god-tier character actors?
A monstrous man inexplicably playing a guitar made out of corpse parts
2026 watch #65: From Dusk Till Dawn. ngl that corpse guitar whips ass.
Johnny Depp is in a lot of cologne ads for someone who looks like they just hit a Febreze bath after a smoke break
My Allbirds shoes telling me to kill myself
Dammit it’s already happening
If you are too anxious to figure out your own drink order, then you are too wound up for coffee, sorry, it's just water until you regulate.
I feel like Fiona Apple would be so good at this
The fry kids who were part of the old McDonald's mascot. They are three differences colored puffballs on legs with eyes
I would have killed the fry kids with a flamethrower
Yeah, stoic Gosling isn't my favorite either, he works best in silly lil' guy mode. But it's such a well-crafted film that captures the harrowing insanity and daredevil antics of early space travel, and while he wouldn't be my first choice, i don't think he detracts from it.
The score is really quite beautiful
Ryan Gosling playing Neil Armstrong, in a spacesuit on the moon
2026 watch #64: First Man. Revisited Ryan Gosling's OTHER space movie, which I find tragically underrated. The film does a phenomenal job of capturing *just how insane* it was that we sent men to the moon in tin cans powered by math and showing the undiagnosed mental illness it required to go.
Charlie Kirk memorial pez dispenser would go hard
The Fabelmans
Perfect Days
The Zone of Interest

Instead of asking chatgpt, why not ask a librarian? You'll get real answers and they won't tell you to kill yourself.
Robert Redford with an expression on his face like he's questioning every decision that's led him to this point while wearing a flamboyant purple cowboy outfit
2026 watch #63: The Electric Horseman. This started out so good, a pitiful portrait of the horrors of minor celebrity as a cowboy cereal salesman circles the drain of substance abuse. Wished it had stayed in that lane instead of turning him into a wandering mystic in a buddy comedy with Jane Fonda.
Yeah, I simply wasn't meant to know how much Hermes bags and Cartier watches cost because they were never meant for me, but shit like TikTok unboxing videos that happen across my feed make me feel poor when I am simply not rich.
“We’re training an AI to ape Zuckerberg’s mannerisms” well this is AI’s easiest task yet because he speaks and moves like a Skyrim shopkeeper.
I can’t believe I’m rooting for the Pope. Weird fuckin’ times, man.
Better Call Saul is superior to Breaking Bad for many reasons, but chief among them is that BB isn’t that fun a rewatch. Walter White is so cartoonishly evil, such a dogshit husband and father enslaved to his own ego, that he’s miserable to be around. Anyone who hates Skyler is telling on himself.
Cat Daddies poster
2026 watch #62: Cat Daddies (at the Phoenix Film Fest). Charming documentary about a handful of random men and their relationships with their cats. The greenest of green flags, not a loser in the bunch.
