Still here, still doing this (mainly because it’s useful to remind myself what I’ve seen so I can log it on letterboxd) but anyway starting again in 2026, thread of what I’m watching and rewatching

I posted this on Instagram yesterday and got flooded with comments of relief that this gag in The Devil Wears Prada 2 was created by an actual human (me), so I figured I’d also post it here because I think these companies should get their flowers when they hire an artist.

Does this also retroactively apply to past winners, or do I still need to find wherever Britain is hiding the statuette so I can give Jonathan Glazer his Oscar?

The Oscar for Best International Feature will no longer be awarded to a country or region. Instead, it will be presented to the film’s director.

It’s one of the disappointing things about Stardust, a 2020 biopic of Bowie that didn’t get the music rights, being a dud because I think a biopic that doesn’t get to lean on existing goodwill for the music has real potential, but that one sucked and lack of music was blamed

i actually think an MJ movie without the music would be incredibly interesting and probably what's needed to really get into the dark shit. don't give people a second to get distracted by that billie jean intro

Most of the people who get angry at critics for not liking any big movie these days aren’t even engaging with criticism. They’re upset about Rotten Tomatoes scores and crap like that. This isn’t art for them. It’s sports.

“there’s a part 2 coming that will be about the allegations”
“they wanted to include the allegations but legally couldn’t”
So both those excuses actually support the idea of it being a creatively compromised, hastily restructured film and neither reason compels me to see it
