New trailer for James Gunn’s #Superman just dropped! It’s still much too early to make any firm judgements, but this thing is kinda a vibe. If this is the direction of Gunn’s DC Universe, I’m totally here for it! #filmsky #moviesky #movies #trailer #superheroes youtube.com/watch?v=Ox8Z...

#JustWatched Fly Me to the Moon (2024), starring Scarlett Johansson & Channing Tatum. 🎥 🎞️ 📼 It’s a pleasant surprise! A fun premise and a strong ensemble make for a surprisingly capable comedy streamer. #letterboxd #filmsky #movies #moviereview #moviesky boxd.it/9Ex3wH

Time to look back on April’s four favorite watches: •The Shawshank Redemption (1994) • Singin’ in the Rain (1952) • The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012) • Bringing Up Baby (1938) #letterboxd #filmsky #moviesky #movies #fourfavorites #april2025

Rounding out my April watches with What’s Up, Doc? (1972) #nowwatching #filmsky #moviesky #movies #letterboxd #comedy

personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down

#JustWatched Bringing Up Baby (1938), starring Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant. An absolutely unhinged delight from start to finish! They just don’t make ‘em like this anymore. #letterboxd #filmsky #moviesky #movies #comedy #classics boxd.it/9x57Uf
