Let's Visual Storytelling with #TheLastOfUs! This motherfucker dead. 100% donezo. Ceased to be, run down the curtain and joined the bleeding choir invisible.* *pending future flashback sequences

I'm no fan of Catholicism nor papacy nor Christianity nor religion in general, but I'm always here for a solid, nail-someone's-ass-to-the-wall dragging when the dragee is so desperate for the approval of the dragger

And then some evenings you watch a highly experimental and almost entirely plotless film both about and narrated by a dead hippo

Pro-tip for costume designers: try to avoid putting your male lead in trousers that make it look like he's shit himself.

Re: 28 DAYS LATER 4K, I found an interview with DP Anthony Dod Mantle that gets deep into the production pipeline, and the minute attention to detail in the lighting to work around the inherent limitations of the prosumer Canon XL1 MiniDV camera chosen for its size theasc.com/magazine/jul... 1/5

Finally caught THE RETURN and it is excellent: narrowing the scope and eschewing the mythological adventure of The Odyssey in favour of a human tale of a man broken by his quests just trying to return, reassimilate and rekindle his life and love. So much incredible acting and beautiful imagery.

1/3 Things to bear in mind when bitching about the look of 4K HDR releases of films made before digital end-to-end: • Was that print you remember perfect? • How old was the projector bulb? • How clean was the screen? • How good is your colour memory? • How accurate is/was your colour perception?

I may have found the absolute nadir of both Jan-Michael Vincent and Cybil Shepherd's careers: 1980 DTV alien abduction flick THE RETURN. It's always important to remember just how much MOONLIGHTING was considered a career resurgence for Shepherd, as AIRWOLF was for Vincent

That the second season of LIGHT & MAGIC only runs to 3 episodes underlines the way digital VFX have unleashed ever greater possibilities in realistic effects-based filmmaking while also becoming rather less interesting to watch people actually make than their practical equivalents

Some days you just gotta exact justice on your cousin whose going full Nazi gave your grandpa a fatal stroke by heading to Paris to chill and party for a couple of years, cuckolding your pa's best buddy who got called up, then joining the Resistance and calling in an Allied airstrike on his ass

Found the inspiration for the interior design of Jeff Bozo's cock-rocket. Note the absence of controls on the sturdy central console with its grab rails for the passengers to grab onto as they are flung about with no provision for them to control anything whatsoever during their joyride

Best time travel movie I saw last year, hands down. And also the best samurai movie I saw last year.

"Uncensored", huh? Well, I'm sure that's going to: a) be stress-tested hard the second it opens up b) use more lettuce emojis than have even been used before c) go well... Can't wait to sign up and join the fun. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I really need reviewers of #TheLastOfUs to stop opening with "I know the TV show isn't a one-to-one translation of the game" before writing a list of grievances about differences between the show and the game and how the events of the show hit differently as a consequence. Clear your minds...
