Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos says BARBIE and OPPENHEIMER would have been just as big on Netflix.
“There’s no reason to believe that the movie itself is better in any size of screen for all people. My son’s an editor, he watched ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ on his phone.”

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

The first must-read best-of film list of the year is here, and it’s John Waters’. Spots one and two won me over completely (even if he sees fit to put the terrible Empire in there at number ten). ❤️🔥

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

This week, Netflix will drop a western with Lena Headey and Gillian Anderson as warring matriarchs of opposing clans. Not a one of the dozens of media writers I follow online has ever mentioned this show, and yet its three-week-old trailer has over 1M views. Make it make sense.

Very excited that my first narrative film is not only premiering on @shudder.com tomorrow, but that it's also getting so many screenings!! Being a 30-minute film I didn't expect it to get any theatrical play, so the fact that all these venues programmed it to support features is a huge deal to me.🖤
Upcoming screenings for THE OCCUPANT OF THE ROOM, beginning tomorrow with its premiere on @shudder.com as part of annual series THE HAUNTED SEASON (in all their territories!)
Scan through the list to see if it is coming to a theatre near you!

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

The futility of compassion in the hellbound frontier. A powder keg moment between the Mormons, indigenous peoples, and the U.S. government. Betty Gilpin. Shea Wigham. Kim Coates. Music by Explosions in the Sky. Relentlessly brutal and beautifully poignant. One of the best things I’ve seen all year.

My girlfriend tried to show me Takashi Miike’s Audition. The second time the dog appeared, I searched Does The Dog Die. Needless to say, I shut that shit down. I know it’s an essential film but I’m just too emotionally fragile near the holidays.
