And there went most of my interest in the DCU. With Lanterns and Superman, there was a real personality at play in DC movies I was excited to see continue and now I fear we'll just get a copy and paste of the MCU's tv style of storytelling with no real stakes or character growth.
James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down from DC Studios. (hollywoodreporter.com/movies…)

Me: CIVIL WAR was intentionally vague to the point of ideological incoherence to avoid mapping on to current culture war nonsense. Alex Garland: I literally foresaw California and Texas rising against the populist fraud in the White House.
You all owe Alex Garland an apology

I'm so mad because Hollywood just arbitrarily decided my city didn't deserve this movie in any theaters at all.
This movie was better than Odyssey and I don’t see Dune beating it

100%. I get so mad when I see people call this show trash without having even seen season 2. It has some incredible moments of filmmaking.
Feel bad for everyone who wrote this off after the first season. S2 was a genuinely incredible interpretation of the lore, despite some pretty sizable liberties taken with the timeline.

This season, One Ring to rule them all. Watch the official trailer now, then witness Season 3 beginning November 11.

My brother told me today that he watched Shutter Island on an old black-and-white TV, so I got curious and recolored a few clips. Are we sure Scorsese didn't originally intend for this to be black-and-white? Because it works so well.

Oh no this hurts my soul
RJ Mitte, who played Walter White Jr. on “Breaking Bad,” has died. He was 34. • A cause of death was not immediately disclosed by his representatives. • Like his “Breaking Bad” character Walt Jr., Mitte had cerebral palsy. Throughout his acting career, he was an advocate for disability representation in Hollywood. variety.com/2026/tv/news/rj-…

Oh dang! This fills me with joy. Really the over the top comedic world building was always too vibrant for live action (i.e. the dirt eating dwarf with the unhinged jaw).
First look at an ‘ARTEMIS FOWL’ animated series. Coming soon to Disney+

"We really wanted to make sure all of the overrated white people restaurants were under one roof," stated a representative of Starbucks.
Starbucks is exploring a potential $41 billion takeover of Chipotle, according to Financial Times. The deal would become the largest restaurant acquisition in history. (ft.com/content/79cef26a-e5e9…)

Absolutely thrilled to hear this. I met Craig at a film fest and he was such a nice guy. Both The Hunt and Compliance are criminally underrated and misunderstood.
Craig Zobel (‘The Penguin’) is set to direct a film adaptation of ‘SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN’. The story follows a town where children go missing & the few that return have terrible stories of terrifying creatures. Filming begins in Spring.

Both Artificial and Werewulf premiere on Christmas and I'm not sure why Hollywood thinks I want to feel intense dread during the holidays.

Russell Crowe in Les Mis is actually so good and I will never back down from that opinion.

The thing is this tweet is correct
The "Get On Your Feet" ice rink scene is the best scene on any sitcom.

Really struggling here between my belief that artists should take big swings and own their adaptations and my desire for fidelity to one of my favorite childhood stories. Hope "rock and roll" and Narnia mix better than how they mix in my head.
