#ElCamino offers a meditative epilogue for Breaking Bad that feels less like a sequel and more like torn out pages from the original story. Aaron Paul is a silent joy and Vince Gilligan’s direction remains as sharp as ever. The cohesion here is remarkable. Review forthcoming.

the only pattern i see is a reality that hollywood and distributors need to accept: less is more. invest in 20-30-40M movies again and lower your ceilings. but that's like asking this country to create industries and focus on class issues.

“The Fall Guy” not doing all that well, “If” not doing all that well, “Furiosa” not doing all that well, “Garfield” not doing all that well… you know what this means for the Deadpool movie right? Are you following this trend? Are you seeing the pattern?

it's now clear to me that too many fans want TERMINATOR HALLOWEEN again and again and again. has always been my least favorite aspect of this franchise, and for DGG to revisit the human elements of the first one was exactly the "back to basics" approach we were sold on in 2018.
