Not only do you make your dog talk, you give them a rich, layered backstory in which they’re a pathological liar who has worked on every movie set and has gossip about “what really happened.” It’s a blast having a dog.
There’s an anus joke in this week’s Hacks that had me howling for about ten minutes. Gonna miss this show.
It truly is. Riveting stuff from start to finish.
I was on the edge of my seat as Robert Redford… conducts an ABSOLUTE BLINDER of a phone call.
Rewatched All The President’s Men the other night and feel this DEEPLY
Hadn’t watched this in years until the recent 4K release from Universal; was genuinely shocked at how well it’s aged. Soderbergh’s directing Oscar win should’ve been for this and not TRAFFIC.
That line is seared into my brain ☀️🐦⬛
Email from Amazon saying older kindles will no longer work after May 20.
In the grand scheme of things, not a huge deal but my Kindle 4 was a gift from my brother when I moved to the US and I love it. I use it every day.
This sucks, as does the 20% off a new kindle.
Love that there’s a couple on here I’ve never seen! The magic of top ten lists ✨
You know I’m always down to banter about Alien!
What a fascinating ranking! Genuinely. We are pretty much polar opposites on this series 😆
Hang on, AVP2 higher than Alien 3? WILD MAN.
Wait, did I already know this and block it from my mind? I feel like you love the sequels I do not and vice versa; but I WANT to love them all!
Mate, yes! Do it!
What a blast— love this cut. Blushes here and there of a dark savagery Fincher intended. It’s fucking great.
Matt, I said the exact thing when it ended! (‘82 baby here)
These are my favourite pieces and why I enjoy film podcasts so much— examining art thru personal moments, the lens of how it impacts us. It’s what matters most 💖
Todd— brilliant article!
If you live somewhere with a public library and you care about this issue, I urge you: contact your local library board and let them know how much you support a robust, diverse collection, and the librarians and staff who promote access to that collection.
The board listens to the public.
Film writer people— anyone else finding that The-Numbers.com no longer lists yearly release schedules? I use it a lot to find anniversaries, looking back over entire years and now it looks like they don’t do it anymore? I’m trying to find an alternative if anyone has a good suggestion. Thanks!
Can confirm this 100% helps ensure the continuation of programs and collection development
Something really fucking cool to hear today. I knew about the beagle rescue but didn’t know she was involved. More famous folks doing stuff like this, please!
Perfect album from start to finish 💖
The story of how Panahi’s “This is Not A Film” came to global attention is as crucial as the film itself— a vital filmmaker whose work will persist.
(And this Blade comparison is chef’s kiss)
It was so refreshing to hear Amy Madigan speak candidly — in the press room after her win— about the fact Weapons IS horror and the genre at large and how it’s often dismissed. Why was that the only time we really heard it mentioned last night?
Reminds me of the Blackadder scene where Bob says, "I want to see a war fought so badly", getting the response, "you've come to the right place; a war hasn't been fought this badly since Olaf the Hairy, king of all the Vikings, ordered 10,000 helmets with the horns on the inside."
SEEMS LIKE HORROR MOVIES ARE WINNING SOME OSCARS HUH.
Shrieked SO LOUDLY when Michael’s name was announced— HECK YES!! So happy for him. #Oscars
He’d be a GREAT choice to host next year
Anyone else’s #Oscars audio and picture out of sync?? Tried stopping and starting, rewinding, switching from Hulu live stream to Aerial live stream.
You know what? As a public librarian I’d have been moved by someone openly weeping at a movie!
I agree, 5 star movie for me too. It filmed near where I live which added this extra layer of WELP into my heart.
