Okay horror fans, it’s time to cross over your @joshruben.bsky.social love! Dropout fans turned up for HEART EYES, so it’s your turn to tune in to MAKE SOME NOISE!

I respect The Troops

I unironically enjoyed Crystal Pepsi & would like it to come back.

HELL YEAH! Tickets acquired! See you Peacemakers at High Noon! #RCPM #HeresToLife

Also, for anyone looking for something free to read, my piece on BECKY/THE WRATH OF BECKY just opened up yesterday to all subscribers (I can’t believe how relevant these movies are years later). Again, any and all subs/shares are greatly appreciated: thehorrorchick.substack.com/p/indie-horr...

The Quick and the Dead is currently on Hulu & Disney+ right now, couldn't recommend it more. perfect movie featuring an immaculate Hackman performance.

RIP Gene Hackman. Always a bright spot in anything he did. An absolute titan. What a loss.

first article i've ever written about wrestling and it's a heavy hitter. i didn't hold back about being an AEW fan. & i dove into something that's very important to me as a black wrestling fan for @butwhytho.net. check it out below! butwhytho.net/2025/02/aew-... #wrestlesky #aew #wrestling

There is a line of criticism in this essay that I feel is unassailable - that no matter how ride or die you are for Friedkin, you can't deny that this is where he went wrong. And it completely re-contextualized the movie for me. I love good video essay criticism and this is the very best kind of it.

This is grim but worth considering.

creating people with nothing to lose not the smart move rightoids think it is

Hey @joshruben.bsky.social! Give this a read & smile!

RIP George Armitage He directed two of my favourite films, Miami Blues and Grosse Pointe Blank. He’s also responsible for my favourite scene involving a baby & Under Pressure. Just beautiful. youtu.be/DWyuAq5Yq34?...

what a great character actor. he will be missed.

The #HeartEyes mask just fuckin rips. I really love it.

I don’t want to alarm anybody but TENNIS HAS A NEW RECORD COMING!! REPEAT: NEW TENNIS COMING IN APRIL!

This fuckin’ guy.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER - a movie where a buncha Nazis are revealed to hold key law enforcement and government positions and are immediately neutralized or arrested - is now an outdated period piece, happy Tuesday.

You ever think about how many prosthetic dongs are stowed away in bins at various f/x shops in Hollywood? Me neither

Toni Storm is the best character work in wrestling today. Bar none. Period. No questions or comments at this time.

An important first-person account from someone inside OPM:

DEN OF THIEVES is HEAT. And I’m not mad about it.

Draft 2 is done! I’m really happy with the changes based on initial feedback. Production meeting this week for another script review & that means one step closer!! #NoXPMovieMaking

ICE is raiding elementary schools in Aurora. When all of this is over and done, whatever over and done looks like, we should never forgive the people who supported this. We need to make it clear that this kind of moral monstrousness, or cheering enthusiasm for it, makes you a social pariah.

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.
