*watches NOPE, the movie about a giant monster whose core looks like a camera that hangs over Hollywood and quite literally chews people up then spits them out*
Is this movie even about anything
PREY should be the template for ALL the horror franchises. Drop a xenomorph into feudal Japan. Do Final Destination on a 17th century pirate ship. Let the ancient Greeks crack open the Hellraiser box
There really isn’t a comparable place to Twitter. Am I supposed to hop on Instagram and write like “the only slasher icon who believably eats ass is Jason Voorhees” underneath a photo of some nice leaves I saw
James Cameron emerges from the bottom of the ocean every few eons like Film Cthulhu, calls everyone an idiot, and pockets a cool billion before submerging once more.
A king, an icon, a legend.
James Cameron on ‘AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER’ being 3 hours long.
“I can almost write this part of the review. ‘The agonisingly long 3-hour movie…’ It’s like, give me a fucking break. I’ve watched my kids sit & do 5 one-hour episodes in a row.”

*watches the arc of Jupe, a man who barely survived child acting but feels the allure of fame so strongly he makes the same irresponsible mistake the adults around him did as a child—with the same disastrous, bloody consequences. The cycle continues*
why was that in the movie
On the three-year anniversary of THE LAST JEDI, would simply like to reiterate that this moment rips so hard it should be illegal. Rian Johnson should be in jail for making Star Wars this cool.
*watches Keke Palmer feed the Hollywood beast a 20-foot-tall cowboy effigy until it EXPLODES and when the dust settles what's left is a Black man on a horse framed like a Western hero*
🤷
Pretty wild how THE REHEARSAL is better at interrogating Nathan Fielder's comedy than literally all of the think-pieces interrogating Nathan Fielder's comedy
There’s a cut in
#HalloweenEnds
that led me to believe Michael Myers was riding on the back of a motorcycle for a second and that brief moment was the most alive I’ve felt in months
You can tell making movies is nearly impossible because right now some of the best minds in the business are struggling to crack "Mahershala Ali fucks up some vampires with a sword"
Watched DR. STRANGELOVE for the first time over the weekend (I know I know) and was shocked and delighted to discover Tim Robinson is usually just doing George C. Scott from this movie
“I enjoyed the new SPIDER-MAN, it made me happy, but I’d also like some variety in movie theaters” is not a hot take but it is the only one I have the energy for
Simply awed that THE LAST JEDI exists and that so many people still volunteer, of their own free will, to log on to this website and be wrong about it every single day.
Have you ever told someone that Indiana Jones has no effect on the outcome of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK? Check out this piece, in which I implore you to please shut up forever.
Less than a month after premiere, MA RAINEY’S BLACK BOTTOM is in Netflix’s “Hidden Gems” section and it’s like...that is your movie. You are hiding it.
I feel like the truly insane timing of GLASS ONION dropping right now is the universe rewarding Rian Johnson for handling the reaction to The Last Jedi like a boss
(Because the internet is a cesspool just wanna make it clear I don't actually think Rian Johnson should be in jail I think Rian Johnson should be gearing up for at least 17 KNIVES OUT sequels)
So, the BAD NEWS: My previously-announced podcast guest had to reschedule. Stay tuned!
The GOOD NEWS: I called in a literal Avenger for backup. Joining me *tomorrow* on
@InTheEnvelope
is Bucky dang Barnes himself...SEBASTIAN STAN
I’ve got about one million conflicting thoughts about
#TheBatman
but all I actually want to talk about is the car chase. Easily the most thrilling filmmaking in a comic book movie since…2008?
Suuuuper excited to announce that this week’s guest on
@InTheEnvelope
is none other than… BELLA RAMSEY
We’re talkin The Last of Us, their acting secrets, and Pedro Pascal bonding moments this Thursday
A lot of people correctly pointing out that Freddy Krueger also 100% dumpster dives on occasion. I regret the error.
@elonmusk
can you help me fix this
I'd like to personally thank each and every person who let me know the lament configuration wouldn't be around yet in ancient Greece, actually. I'm taking some time to reflect on my crimes against The Canon. Grateful to everyone on the front lines protecting The Lore ❤️
@ScottWamplerBMD
On set of The Punisher someone asked Jon Bernthal if he saw himself as a role model for actual marines. The look on Bernthal's face could've killed a full grown human being
This really isn't a dig at anyone involved. It's what makes Hollywood *fascinating* to me. Sometimes you start with "dinosaurs are invading the Earth" and end with "big locusts" and nobody who wasn't involved could possibly explain how
The MCR tour sold out because a whole generation of depressed 14 year olds just grew up to be even more depressed adults who wanna sit down at concerts
So dang excited to announce that our next guest on
@InTheEnvelope
is... JODIE COMER
We're talking her Tony nominated PRIMA FACIE performance (and, if I have anything to say about it, THE LAST DUEL) this Thursday
@howintensive
You can make the "why didn't they" argument about 99% of movies ever made and it will never mean as much to me as a beautiful, thrilling image.
Here's my hour-long, *extremely* wide-ranging convo with Sebastian Stan about Rutgers University, the theatrical experience, PAM & TOMMY, his disdain for actors who create chaos on set, and what his life will be like without the Winter Soldier*

Saw Jodie Comer in PRIMA FACIE last night and I'm afraid it's possible that we're STILL underrating her as one of the best actors working today (/ever)
