GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON’T DIE (2026) 4/5: A vivid slap in the face to tech culture. Verbinski’s punk rock energy - along with a chaotically funny performance from Rockwell - gives the film a feel that lands somewhere between a TWILIGHT ZONE episode and the best of Sam Raimi.
A rewatch last night of NIGHTCRAWLER confirms that it is absolutely one of the best movies of the last 15 years.
I’ve never heard a human being talk about Mr. Beast in real life. I’m convinced his popularity is some kind of devious con to make rational humans question reality.
For some reason I’m watching HALLOWEEN H20 in February. Each time I see it I hate the movie just a little bit more. Dull as dishwater, lazy, and a production no one outside of Curtis seemed to want to be a part of.
The rightwing response to the murder of Alex Pretti is predictable: to outshout and talk over anyone taking another position. The shrillness on Twitter is especially grating, but again, not surprising. It's Orwell's doublespeak. If the man had a cell phone instead of a gun, yell louder.
It was literally founded on rebellion. Against tyranny. This isn’t hard.
These people have become completely desensitized to lying. It’s their go-to nature.
Trying to imagine any reality where I’m excited about a movie for babies like HE-MAN.
This babbling idiot is not well.
“There are lofty goals to be found within Sleepwalker, but unfortunately, the film is ultimately DOA due to a poor script, uninspired direction, and a complete lack of scares.” @brandonct.bsky.social has our review:
AVATAR: FIRE & ASH: Mostly a retread of WAY OF WATER only with a great performance from Oona Chaplin that ultimately isn’t serviced by the script.
For all of my readers out there, you need to get on the latest Joe Hill novel ASAP. What a devilishly fun ride.
After watching Kino’s recent release of SCARS OF DRACULA, I’m convinced we need all of the classic Hammer films on 4K stat.
Grown ass adults will non-ironically tell you one of their favorite movies is SHREK.
Trump "redacted" from Home Alone 2
EYES WIDE SHUT fucking rules. A great take on ego, sexual fantasy and anxiety, and the uncertainty around not truly knowing who anyone really is - even those closest to you.
Every single one of those country music superstars that fill stadiums look like they went to prom in their twenties.
Sydney Sweeney is indeed very attractive but we have boobs at home.
“When the film gets down and dirty – it does so with gusto and never forgets that there are characters experiencing the horror around them." Our @brandonct.bsky.social reviews Pig Hill, streaming this weekend:
A film called JINGLE BELL HEIST is supposedly the #1 movie on Netflix right now just in case you needed more evidence that it’s the CBS of streaming services.
THIS x1000.
The judgiest part of me in 2025 is very much “There’s not a chance in hell I’m watching something called K-POP DEMON HUNTER.”
On the scale of things that smell awful, weed is one small rung below the toxic sludge known as sauerkraut.
Hardcore (1979). George C. Scott as Jake Van Dorn. He’s wearing a tie-dye shirt, a fake mustache, and a wig.
thinking about this disguise George C. Scott dons in Hardcore and cracking up
It's 1987. PREDATOR and THE RUNNING MAN are in theaters.

I’ve long thought Trump is good at picking fights that benefit him politically but the fact he’s fighting right now to starve Americans is making me reassess
The perfect metaphor for the MAHA agenda
Still reeling from how dull and lifeless the last two MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE films are. As much as I love ROGUE NATION and FALLOUT, McQuarrie should’ve sat these two out. This franchise thrived on new directorial blood.
Tonight is beggar’s night in Columbus and it’s pouring rain and cold. Instead of passing out candy, I’m doing the next best thing: sitting at a bar.
