I’ve accepted it. The Batman Part 2 will never happen. I will persist despite. But I will not forget what could have been.

Give a man a fish, shame on you. Teach a man to fish, shame on me. Fool me once, I eat for a day. Fool me twice, I eat for life. Give a shame to me once, I fish for a day. Shame me for life, and I fish twice.

I don’t think Karl Marx could’ve ever predicted this.

One banger after another this week! #letterboxd

The train from L'arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat will return in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY

Saw this cool bird a week ago, but I’m not sure what species it is.

At the end of Spring Break, the usual, benevolent weekend is killed and replaced by Evil Weekend!

if you thought americans couldn’t get any stupider we’re about to fucking surprise you

The world was so much better before old people knew about crypto. Because that was also when I didn’t know about crypto, and sports betting ads and cyber trucks didn’t stain my vision all day every day. Anyways while I’m up here I’ve got this great soap box I’m selling, very sturdy very reliable

Watched too many good movies recently. My senses are dulled. I should watch The Electric State just to feel something again.

Man, being the second flying facial hair commercial of the Super Bowl must be so embarrassing…

Big variety this week! #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched

waiter: can i get you more … pac-man: keep … coming

Last summer I was so upset that I missed the premiere of Sing Sing at a Regal Monday Mystery Movie. This weekend it is showing in theaters 2 hours away from me by train, and you bet your bottom dollar I’m not missing this opportunity.

Remember: It’s always more important to identify actors from their previous roles than it is to watch the current movie on your screen.

(Almost) every movie I’ve seen this year has been an 8/10 and it’s making me questioning my own intuition. Like you know when you fill out multiple choice questions on a test and put one letter too many times in a row and you start questioning it? That’s me right now with my own opinions #letterboxd

Red underwear. 12 grapes under a table in under a minute after midnight. I CAN’T KEEP BEING SINGLE.

Here’s my 12 favorite movies of 2024! Looking forward to next year and all of the movies it’ll bring. #letterboxd

New conspiracy theory that Jimmy Carter is actually still alive.

Don’t you just love when the movies you’re watching keep getting better and better? Mwah. Chef’s kiss. #letterboxd #lastfourwatched

what if you get to heaven and st. peter tests your knowledge of obscure internet references

Medieval hangmen would love my movie reviews with how often I end up writing that something was “well executed.”

Nobody can convince me this isn’t peak.

“Does pineapple belong on pizza” walked so “Is Die Hard a christmas movie” could run.

There is a time in my life where I woulda told you, in a zombie apocalypse, that I would become an impromptu survival expert. There was another time where I woulda told you I’d end it myself before I get bitten. Now I reckon I last a couple weeks then trip down a huge flight of stairs and die.

You will never have a better conversation about the movie you just watched than with a pair of old men who left the same showing as you and are also hovering outside the theater talking about it.

bongo has been acting strange lately

Seeing the trailers for the live action Minecraft, Snow White, and How To Train Your Dragon movies back to back was so painful. Will Hollywood ever recover from this era of derivitive-ness? Can we dig up the hearse of originality from its grave?

Fabio and Kenny G occupy the exact same, rarely accessed region of my brain. The vibes are good there.

Caught SNL for the first time last night (I thought it only aired at midnight and had forgotten I lived in Pacific Standard Time): really good! Great to catch a weekend report live instead of as clips on TikTok.

Guy who just got tarred and feathered but is discovering something about himself and is about to become the first furry: Y’know what…

Ernst Mach, whose name you know from the Mach numbers (Mach 1, Mach 5 etc) was also a philosopher and artist who was obsessed with sensation, the below is a self portrait of him called "View from the left eye."

God forbid I want to buy 7 eggs. Now I have 5 extra eggs. Buy 7 more? Now I have twice what I needed and 2 extra eggs. This madness doesn’t stop until Big Egg has convinced you to buy 7 cartons of eggs. Madness.
