"TRANSMITTER" in bold red text top left, "CUT WORMS" in bold red text bottom right, black borders top and bottom.

Book cover for "Kahi and Lua: Tales of the First and the Second" by Melissa Llanes Brownlee. Dark blue starfield background with a abstract black outline illustration of an organic, rounded shape at center. Title in bold white text at top, author name in white at bottom.
A novella-in-flash about Hawai'ian gods navigating late-stage capitalism.
Through keen observations of modern life and immortality, Brownlee uses the characters to reflect on the beauty and sadness of existence.

Movie poster for The Secret Agent. Painted in warm amber and cream tones, three men's faces emerge from loose brushstrokes — expressive, slightly weathered, each gazing in a different direction. Below them, two small silhouetted figures walk together against a white background, suggesting a father and son on the run. A faded government stamp marks the lower right corner. The design evokes vintage 1970s political cinema.

Wagner Moura delivers the most charismatic lead performance of 2025 in a film that trusts its audience the way 70s Hollywood political thrillers did.

Promotional image for Shoresy. Five men in hockey training gear pose against a snowy blue background. The central figure stands tall in a light blue tracksuit and black cap, arms at his sides, expression deadpan. Four teammates flank him on either side, seated and standing, arms crossed, equally serious. Bold red block letters spell SHORESY across the foreground.

Drop someone cold into Shoresy Season 5 and watch them cycle through profanity, laughter, tears, and "are we drinkin' beers?"
I'm reviewing every episode this season.

New Larry's #100WordReviews of novel Brooklyn Motto by @haciendafilms.bsky.social
"A damn fine gumshoe yarn that tweaks expectations, updates archetypes, and features an evolved masculinity that detoxifies the genre."
