This article confirms TCM will be part of the Discovery Global spinoff, not Netflix.

For the first time it in its history, TCM will not be owned by a company that also owns a film library.

After a banner year of Warner Bros putting unique, filmmaker driven original movies into theaters and getting giant audience turn out for them, the corporation that now owns them would like you to know that actually you didn’t like this and that what you really wanted was to watch at home.

As Netflix confirms plans to buy Warner Bros. for $82.7 billion, the streaming service has said it expects shorter theatrical runs for movies in future "to meet the audience where they are, quicker." https://bit.ly/3XCvY8M

Friendly note to #WarnerArchive: now that in the next six months, the amount of people putting "Don't crowd me" into their vernacular is going to multiply exponentially thanks to its ubiquity in THE MOVIE ORGY, you should start finally preparing SPEED CRAZY for BluRay soon and cash in.

A lot of the people bemoaning Netflix's possible acquisition of WB are ignoring the fact that if WB goes to Paramount, it will be Disney buying Fox all over again--WB will become a "label" within Paramount and then simply disappear. Ellison hasn't shown he can run one studio. Don't give him two. >

But the memes are somehow still worth it right gang
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Many years ago @drewmcweeny.com encouraged me to attend a rare public screening of @thejoedante.bsky.social's THE MOVIE ORGY and it was honestly one of my favorite theatrical experiences of all time. A legendary and massively influential mashup movie, decades ahead of its time.
***ANNOUNCEMENT***

Now available to order on the @vinsyn.bsky.social website on Blu-ray in the US from #OCNDistribution #PartnerLabel #AGFA: #TheMovieOrgy (1968)!

THE MOVIE ORGY is a legendary found footage triumph from Joe Dante—one of genre cinema's most significant masterminds.

I think it’s important to understand that accommodations are typically limited to extra time on an exam, taking the exam in a controlled private setting, or using a word processor instead of handwriting—it’s not an advantage.

The thinking below just harms students with disabilities.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

Paul Dano is amazing in THE FABELMANS, truly tragic and sad but full of love for his family.

Also, Dano is INCREDIBLE in THERE WILL BE BLOOD. He does exactly what the role requires and goes beyond.

Finally, Dano brings real relatability and empathy in SWISS ARMY MAN.

Paul Dano - great actor.

It always gets on my nerves when people say the “Old Testament” is so violent and disturbing, compared to the supposedly much more peaceful and loving “New Testament.”

I think we have to look at them as different genres. One is a warts-and-all family memoir, while the other is more like self-help.

I'm not going to pretend these are bad films (I don't even mind the Woody film) but this doesn't exactly scream "voracious cinephile with a near-encyclopedic knowledge of genre and world cinema" so much as "dad who watches a lot of TNT."

Tarantino loves the sound of his own voice. He doesn't like to be challenged. He likes stacked-deck conversations with acolytes. Every interview is a sermon. He knows shit, but he's also incredibly full of shit. And, worst of all, mean.
