I really like movies. They're literally my favorite thing in the world. Hoping to make my own some day soon!

On one hand, it’s wild that Jim and Pam invited all of their co-workers to their wedding, on the other, it’s even wilder that they invited all their co-workers to the rehearsal dinner too!

I want Kendrick replacing: "say Drake, I hear you like em young” with: "say Trump, I hear you like em young." I want the crowd booing Trump and Elon. I want them leaving the game after halftime. I want Elon tweet angrily all night

I think most reasonable people agree that whatever edgy or dumb thing a teenager said years ago reflects who they are now as adult. People change. Grow and reflect. I do think what a 25 year old man posted publicly less than a year ago is reflective of what he actually believes

I really hate Bill Maher. Maybe my least favorite celebrity. Joe Rogan is too dumb for him to really get under my skin, but Maher’s the worst mix of boomer ignorance and smugness that just pisses me off. I wanna punch him every time I see a clip of him. I wish HBO would just cancel him already

We’re about 2-3 months out from civil unrest I feel. Crazy that it took 3 and a half years last time for Trump to get there. This speed run is crazy

Greta Gerwig seeing the Emilia Perez discourse and hoping nobody looks into who voted for it to win Cannes

“This Oscar race has everything. AI Architects, blackface, twinks singing Bob Dylan, intersex popes, pop stan wars, the peeing kid from home alone, and the entire nations of Brazil and Mexico against the French film industry. Also, no sex coordinators.”

I think the Oscar race being so petty this year is both entertaining and really sad. I’m not trying to make it sound like the academy awards are some sacred institution, but the amount of hit pieces and “discourse” over every little thing is becoming too much

Xi Jinping! Destroy Elon Musk’s wealth and my life is yours!!!!

I think what we’re seeing happen in the US now is similar to what happened to Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union. China’s now the world leader, so there’s no need to keep up any social contracts or pretentious. Oligarchs are just gonna strip what’s left to make themselves richer

The trend of “x-show as the best picture noms” really shows that nobody has bothered to learn what Nickel Boys is actually about. It’s not about coins…

Being the only non-Wicked fan in your friend group

Here’s how I see I going

I don’t know if I can deal with Donald Trump becoming president again, Emilia Pérez winning best picture, and the Chief’s winning another Super Bowl, all in the same year

I think what’s keeping me going is the knowledge that eventually all the ghouls and fascist in power right now will face retribution one day and it will happen in our life time. That’s not wishful thinking. It will happen. Not soon enough, but it will. It’s inevitable.

Feeling mixed on the AI Brutalist controversy. On one hand, after actually reading into, I don’t think it’s as a egregious as people are making it out to be and this seems very reactionary. On the other, it’s kind of hypocritical to prop your movie up as this savior of true cinema and use AI

Well, since TikTok is getting banned there’s one thing I need confess, I never found this girl funny

One of the funniest things about Asmon and Sam Harris feuding with Elon is that both have take moments out of calling him out to go: “but I still think Elon’s like the super smartest specialist boy.” They hate him, but still buy into the hype. It’s a cult of personality as bad as any dictator

“If Emilia Perez wins best picture, it’ll be Crash all over again.” “Wicked has the wind behind it.” “Wicked? The movie that looks like ungraded raw footage? No. Wicked isn’t the answer to anything. You know that. If you want to defeat…” “Defeat? This is award season not a war…” “THIS IS A WAR!”

American’s will say North Koreans are ridiculous for believing Kim Jun invented the hamburger or whatever, but then turn around and believe that Elon Musk is top 20 in Diablo 4

I don’t think RedNote or Bluesky are ever really gonna replace TikTok or Twitter no matter what happens because the real sell to those apps is: 1. The built in user base 2. The algorithm That’s why every Vine successor failed and why ever “rightwing twitter” failed before Elon just bought twitter

Maybe Emilia Pérez winning at the Globes is a blessing in disguise, because now Oscar voters are getting a taste of the discourse and articles that’ll be written if they let it win best picture.

I don’t think Trump is actually going to invade Canadian or Greenland or whatever. It’s obviously a distraction to take the heat off the “President Musk” headlines or the fact that the GOP has given up on lowering grocery prices before even taking office. You know? The reason they won the election.

Joe’s gonna use his final weeks in office to put American troops on the group to reclaim Northern Ireland from the crown!

I hope Sonic The Hedgehog 3 opens with Sonic giving a “thank you for seeing our movie in theaters the way it was meant to be seen” message like Tom Cruise in Top Gun

This definitely happened in real life.

A movie you were lukewarm about a first, but then grew to love (I feel like there’s a lot of this take going around these past few days)

Post your Queen 👑

It's rare you get such a clear illustration of whose lives have value in America and whose don't

You can completely disregard the opinion of anyone’s who’s been cheering on the death of Palestine children for over a year, but is now shaming people over celebrating the death of one health insurance CEO. I don’t think there’s any bigger hypocrisy. You set the rules. Not us.
