As a 60-year old sitting in bed *right now* with Covid (first time I’ve gotten it, too) this really pisses me off.

@benmank77.bsky.social The Pam Grier podcast was fantastic. Seems to me there should be some movement to get her a lifetime achievement Oscar.

I’ve now gotten to see Sinners at two of the theaters Ryan Coogler mentioned in his short video: 70mm at the Grand Lake last month; Imax 70mm at the Metreon SF today. Both experiences were amazing. 🎥📽️🎬

If we lived in an age of physical media, the #Sinners soundtrack would be selling as many units, if not more, than the O Brother Where Art Thou? soundtrack. 📽️🎬🎥
