Bring Her Back (2025)

This is the MAGA version of Kendrick versus Drake except they're both Drake and both think they're Kendrick.

Everybody needs a little Monkey D. Luffy figure.

It’s all playing out just like the movie

yes, drop this news now, exactly at this moment

Wrote about The Life of Chuck, the best movie of the year so far. Watch it, love it, embrace it. A special kind of flick. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

I effing loved Ballerina. Ana de Armas is aces with an ice skate or a dinner plate, and one scene in particular is my favorite action bit of the year. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

YES THIS!

All in for Galactus there.

Trailer time, mother fuckers! Dead is just a word. www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0kq...

The Loved Ones has been added to Shudder. Run, don't walk, if you've never seen it

hey all. this shelter needs some help feeding its kittens. there's a Chewy wishlist and a donation link in the thread. help out if you can!

youtu.be/x--N03NO130?... Only Monsters Play God…

It's totally great, and Mark Hamill is great IN it.

Yes. More of this.

If this goes the way it seems to be going, a sort of inversion to the "megapowers explode" angle, and down the line Swerve and Hanger shake hands or hug as friends, the roof's gonna blow off the place.

An interesting fact not a lot of people know is that there are usually more words in an article than the headline. And if you read those additional non-headline words before responding, you may find that the point you were about to make was, believe it or not, already addressed in the article.

Fandango at Home has an amazing deal today on the OG Universal monster movies. athome.fandango.com/content/brow...

I chopped it up with Tramell Tillman. Put this man in everything. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

BOTTOMS, one of the best comedies of the last few years, is finally available on Blu-ray today. It features audio commentary from cast members Rachel Sennott, Ayo Edebiri, Ruby Cruz, Havana Rose Liu, Kaia Gerber, and director Emma Seligman. You can order here: amzn.to/4kvOCIO

Stephen King's new novel Never Flinch is out today. Did a little review/essay on how Holly Gibney has reached that upper echelon of literary detectives. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

Just saw this dropped this week. Rent it on VOD or see it in a theater near you if it is! THE SEVERED SUN is well worth seeking out.

I am delighted that among all the horrors that trend on this site, “World Goth Day” nevertheless made it on the list. You have all made Robert Smith very happy. Never change, Bluesky.

Ummmm...

SATIRE IS DEAD; LONG LIVE SATIRE #filmsky 📽️

Put the car shop dude in charge.

I mean, let's just be absolutely blunt about this: anyone who says "they checked" the outputs of a chatbot before they used it in something they submitted should be assumed to be a massive liar until proven otherwise. NO ONE IS CHECKING www.404media.co/chicago-sun-...

The original Lilo & Stitch might be my favorite Disney animated movie ever. The new remake is like the less charming, Disney Channel version of that. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

We used to have a country.

Although it's not out yet (two more weeks!), The Life of Chuck is my favorite movie of the year so far. And we've got an exclusive peek at one of the best scenes in @mikeflanaganfilm.com's adaptation of a Stephen King all-timer. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

'Scooby-Doo' did something that 'Sherlock' never could: effectively separate solving mysteries from the police and copaganda.

Perfect time for a look back at every winner ever. Or at least like a 15-minute ABBA tribute or something.

2000% yes.

👀

I'd watch that.

I saw Sinners this weekend. Am almost done with the amazingness that is @sgj.bsky.social ‘s Buffalo Hunter Hunter. Halfway through @tananarivedue.bsky.social’s incredible The Reformatory. The conversational connections between these three works is so incredible to see! I am learning so much.

This shit is hitting a lot of us HARD today

The airplane I will accept as a bribe

Seems like the new Mission: Impossible is dividing folks. (Which I kinda get. The beginning is a little rough.) But count me among those who dig this Final Reckoning. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...
