cineplex is honestly so detrimental to how independent cinemas operate but also how smaller films can get proper distribution/attendance so many indie films this year playing at cineplex werent announced until the week of, no trailers to be seen, and the poster on their app was a grey question mark

what nsfw movie screener should i watch for work before noon today? - vintage cartoonish sexploitation about big bazonga beauties - an immersive scent-filled exploration into VHS age porno - a trans epic exploitation about sw, romance, and mutilation you know... typical weekday fare here

Can’t stop thinking about this woman at the City Commission Meeting about the Mayor trying to shut down O Cinema yesterday. We truly need more people to be this nakedly contemptuous of our public officials wasting our time and money.

this isn't to shit on the big crowd pleasers, you know i love me a good FACE/OFF screening every single time it plays, but i really love when all the programmers get to dig in and really show you why we're so good at our jobs and introduce you to movies we really fkn go hard to bat for

my favourite time of year for film programming is that little wedge of time from fake spring through to just before summer really kicks off It's the time when all the local curators pick the more obscure, interesting, unique, and true to their taste films as opposed to butt in seat blockbusters!

Q: How many movies directed by Peter Jackson are there that are TRUE STORIES about teen lesbians turned evil... that also feature Melanie Lynskey and Kate Winslet being chased by Orson Welles? A: Just one. HEAVENLY CREATURES You can see it at Paradise on Sun Mar 30th 🎟️: tinyurl.com/pvyty4du

An EXTREMELY hot mess of a movie, but nothing beats the milkshake sequence. Definitely a DR screening that @meakoopa.bsky.social has programmed that you won't want to miss

Black Porn History is Black History #whoribledecisions #decisionsdecisions

i don't want to wish summer to come on too quickly but the only thing i'm looking forward to is seeing @stevievalentine.bsky.social and a space disco princess so, uh, HOP TO IT, cunts

does anyone wanna try and run a double bill with me? I'm off to see Goodbye Horses at 6:45pm (so realistically 7pm...) and then Tea and Sympathy is slated for 8pm (so realistically 815... 830 if i'm lucky). I wanna go see both... but there is the risk we miss the second opening

it should be illegal to tempt me with t-shirt designs

I'm glad this announcement is finally live! There's a lot of titles Liz has in her catalogue that I'm itching to play for upcoming screenings, so get ready for some more amazing spicy content coming to the big screen in the near future

Yeah im GAY and that’s an ABOMINATION but im still LIVING MY LIFE and GETTING MONEY $$

whispers are that our new PM (that most people don't even know we have a new PM) is gonna call for ANOTHER early election... so the time is now to yell loud

have your MP candidates started canvassing in your neighbourhood yet? Mine sure have. Make sure to PRESS them for information and letting them know what you want from their representation and what they need to do in order to earn your vote, even if it's a party you would never vote for

when they tell you that IUD insertion is painful they truly aren't kidding. i am actually shocked that they are allowed to do those insertion procedures sans any sort of pain killer / anesthesia so far it seems like it was done fine and the pain is gone but i won't know for a month until they check

That said! Join us on Friday for an out of this world screening! Maybe we can manifest the aliens coming to save us for real, but at the very least we can escape in the best queer haven that is the Paradise Theatre
