Showing RFK Jr. The Accountant would make his head blow up like Scanners

Girls Will Be Girls is really good! Great pick www.pastemagazine.com/movies/sunda...

Follow up Don’t miss deadlines Be polite, be specific Don’t miss deadlines Stick up for your ideas Don’t miss deadlines

Good weekend to watch Hale County This Morning, This Evening. It’s my staff pick this week: www.avclub.com/staff-picks-...

when people ask what I’m up to this weekend

the limit to The Bigger Reacher Hypothesis does not exist

Another hyper-educational longform piece from Nandini Balial:

solid week of antics

Grand Theft Hamlet is streaming on MUBI today and it's a lot of fun if you like Shakespeare, friends goofing off, and/or thinking about machinima: www.avclub.com/grand-theft-...

The name's Guidelines, Unfortunately I Do Not Have Enough Information To Summarize Further Within The Provided Guidelines

going to learn how to make fancams so I can do one for Reizl Bozyk in Crossing Delancey

I am never going to be able to watch Deep Blue Sea again without thinking of this Genius annotation

Now that it's on Criterion and not just available from rips of a decade-old Italian MGM DVD, I dug into Godard's King Lear for The A.V. Club: www.avclub.com/cult-of-crit...

The Rules of the Game, in which a handsome French Tim Robinson has a terrible weekend

saw some box office data going around that made me revisit this, and the number has actually gone DOWN since I wrote this. Frozen and Gravity are beyond the 10-year mark, and have only been replaced by...Sound of Freedom. So, 7 movies out of 100 www.pastemagazine.com/movies/intel...

did a small bit of pre-Oscars Service Journalism (but mostly you should just go watch the new Wallace & Gromit)

missed connection: Our eyes met across the bar. I was nervous. You were wearing the Hackers shirt

Love this series, love getting to edit @carolinesiede.bsky.social

actually maybe I'll just walk to SXSW

writing break with the assistant

Surrealism CAN remind you to care for yourself, your neighbor, your home. It's our Universal Language: www.avclub.com/universal-la...

when I cite a single book in my argument

what a week

it's an insular thing - these boxes really only go to critics - but I respect a company willing to invest in their own legacy when so much of what's happening in new releases is either ephemeral or merch'd to death

no more vaccines, more X-Stream Blu

The slimeball trying to sell everyone out in Die Hard:

The circumstances are “we’re not sure if there is a Federal Trade Commission anymore and we’d like to try something”

every once in a while I'll go watch this or the Prince Super Bowl performance and get myself all riled up for no reason

probably not a good thing that Marvel movies are now assembled like the meals you make when you need to clean out your fridge

this is me taking notes in The Roottrees are Dead

Two Columbo writers came up with a mid-'70s pilot where an idiot cop gives himself a very specific kind of brain damage and becomes Sherlock Holmes. It is not very good but it does have oddly sexy Sid Haig rocking a turtleneck
