The Mayor of LA has issued a curfew tonight — not because the citizens are out of control BUT BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT IS.

Well said. Everyone - Democrat, Republican, whatever - needs to stand up and stand together in this moment and say enough is enough. No kings in America.

Looks like the fire in the Burbank hills is now more contained - thankfully. Stay safe, fellow Burbank-ians!

Seeing some of the first full pages of art come in for HALLOWEEN TEAM Vol. 2. And they are looking incredible! Our new artist Buğra Batuhan Berah is doing some amazing, epic work - and it's been so cool seeing his take on the returning characters as well as his designs for the new ones.

The fact that Trump thinks this way should be, in and of itself, grounds for impeachment and removal from office.

What in the af is Trump talking about. Los Angeles was sunny and peaceful and tranquil today … save for a small area in downtown where Trump tried to manufacture a violent conflict for his own selfish reasons. The ultimate drama queen. If conflict and violence indeed escalates, it’s 100% on him.

Also, thanks to The Life of Chuck, “Dance Hall Days” will now be in my head for all eternity (as if it wasn’t already).

Sometimes, it takes those who dwell in darkness to show us the light. And in the case of THE LIFE OF CHUCK, two masters of horror in Mike Flanagan and Stephen King use their innate understanding of terror and dread to craft an unlikely, timely story of hope and inspiration. I loved this movie.

Happening right here in LA. Trump’s war on non-white immigrants is an absolute stain on this country and what it is supposed to represent.

Read a screenplay for a major upcoming movie by a highly regarded writer. It was really good, very funny. And it also had a few typos, which made me, as a writer, feel great.

Just saw THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME. Really enjoyed - as the film showcased Wes Anderson’s trademark eye for visual detail, and also had tons of great comedic performances Bonus: there’s a whole Phoenician Scheme exhibit at the ol’ Burbank AMC 16 - filled with props and sets from the movie! Pretty cool.

#SummerGameFest … pretty weak this year overall. Some gems, but the show felt plodding and there was a ton of same-y filler. Very little in the way of games that looked truly next level or jaw dropping. Sony’s State of Play was stronger - but man, this is a far cry from the E3 showcases of old.

I was really lucky to be able to attend E3 (including some of the big Sony and Microsoft events) several times over the years through work. But even just as a fan, I definitely miss that annual sense of excitement and anticipation that E3 delivered. A few photos from years' past ...

Also filed in the “yeah, we all know this” column. But if Elon wants to remind people about it and go to war with Trump… by all means.

Okay, so yesterday I mentioned that I've been working to get classic movies live to buy/rent digitally for the first time ever. Some of these launched today! Like The 'Burbs, The Four Seasons, Sweet Liberty, and This Island Earth. Also newly live today: 4 films in the INVISIBLE MAN franchise!

One more exciting new-to-digital movie, out now, that I'll mention tonight. It's one of the all-time sci-fi movie classics - 1955's THIS ISLAND EARTH. You can now buy or rent it digitally for the first time!

Earlier I mentioned The 'Burbs. Now, another great movie gem that just released for the first time ever: THE FOUR SEASONS. Yes, this is the Alan Alda directed movie - starring Alda and Carol Burnett - that inspired the recent Netflix series of the same name. Finally available to rent/buy digitally!

Okay: something fun! For my work I've been spearheading a major project to finally release a lot of movies for the first time EVER on digital transactional - meaning you can buy or rent them digitally for the first time via Apple, Amazon, Fandango, etc. As they roll out, I'll try to post highlights.

Oh man. Been a listener of WTF for a long, long time now. Few interviewers have the ability to get guests to open up and be honest and open and revealing like Marc Maron - and some of the most fascinating interviews I've ever heard have been via his podcast. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

3 years now since I got COVID that would become an ongoing struggle with Long COVID. 3 years of debilitating symptoms - chief among them elevated BP and easily-triggered lightheadedness - that just won't go away despite various incremental improvements. I tell my story. I hope some will listen.

So I went in with pretty low expectations (marketing for this one was ... not great) but I actually quite enjoyed KARATE KID: LEGENDS. Charming, brisk, and with a good amount of heart - Ben Wang gives us a likeable new protagonist, and Macchio + Jackie Chan are really fun together. A crowd-pleaser.

DC’s ongoing METAMORPHO series - brilliantly and hilariously written by Al Ewing - has become one of my favorite monthly comics. It perfectly captures the silly campiness of silver age comics - as well as stuff like the classic Adam West Batman series. If that’s your bag, it’s a must-read.

Watching the clips from the final installment of The NBA on TNT / Inside the NBA. Man ... in its heyday, nothing was better as a young basketball fan than Inside the NBA. If NBC was the NBA as blockbuster movie, Inside was the NBA as smoky late-night comedy club. Often, it was TV's funniest show.
