It's been 4 years now since Sondheim died but I will always love that one of our great Peter Parkers sang Jonathan Larson's amazing tribute to him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xjv8...

Literally buying one copy of a book at your local indie bookstore can mean the difference in whether they buy future books from that author.

I love a bookstore where you get this variety.

RIP to Tom Stoppard, a titan of playwrights and screenwriting (I am absolutely convinced 95% of the historical jokes in Shakespeare in Love, like future bloody playwright John Webster, are from him).

Thank you to the person on reddit, a Patriots fan who remembers 1985 and reminded me that this was the response to the Super Bowl Shuffle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEOj...

#288: The Christmas Tree (1991) - Interminable, poorly animated, badly written and indifferently voiced. 1/2 star for Santa hitting villain with a bolt of lightning completely out of nowhere.

1/2 ★ / ★★★★★

A ½ review of The Christmas Tree (1991)
The level of care this movie takes is epitomized by one of the villains winning a poker hand with 5 aces. All hearts. This is one of the most weirdly lazy Christmas I've ever seen, to the point I thin...

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! My #LastFourWatched has revisiting Oz, one of the best movies of 2025, the single best Star Wars and a HDTGM choice that boggled my mind in its ineptitude.

Now watching: THE CHRISTMAS TREE (1991). I got a bad feeling about this one.

If you’re 6’ or taller the “no elbows on the table” rule shouldn’t apply. A dinner table is too low to comfortably rest your forearms. It’s bad etiquette to make me suffer

Dorcas Reilly was the hero America needed and I’m not joking.

C’mon… this is almost as asinine as Eli Roth’s “Like a surreal David Lynch movie” pull-quote for KEEPER.
Not to trot out the “people will tweet anything” meme, but…

Oooh no new other movie tonight. Because Episode II is on!

#287: Good Boy (2025) - I simply was not expecting a horror film from a huggable dog's perspective to be one of the best movies of the year.

A ★★★★★ review of Good Boy (2025)
For a decent amount of this movie I misread what was going on Indy's human. I thought, from personal experience, alcoholism. The sleep disruption, pushing close people away, coughing, vomiting. But oh...

Half an hour into GOOD BOY and every human is only seen from the chest down. Oh yeah, this move knows what it is doing.

Catching up on GOOD BOY (2025) and already this dog is one of the best actors of the year.

Also whomever is doing the light work is a master.

@hitchdied.bsky.social Weird question, listening to the Ghostbusters episode and I’m always curious about kids being exposed to older movies. How old is Kameela’s daughter?

It’s always a good idea to not be the main character of the day. This dude figured out how, instead of muting the word for a few days, to make it all about him.
November 26, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Absolutely easy choice. One is the brilliant 3 Feet High And Rising. The other is a Pixies album that I think is way, way over-ranked in the bracket.
