Not surprised that Trump likes the Rush Hour movies which play into very obvious and lazy stereotypes about black and Asian movie characters and whose creative shepherd is a sex criminal
I teased this last night in What I’m Hearing but now confirmed: Paramount WILL release Rush Hour 4 after prodding from Trump on behalf of Brett Ratner. Distribution deal. Producer Tarak Ben Ammar is lining up financing. Get ready for the dumbest possible state-controlled media.

The local priest kicked the bucket and a colleague who runs the afterschool Catholic classes said a lot of parents are keeping their kids out “as a mark of respect” and I had to laugh cause there’s absolutely nothing that that aul self-important racist blowhard would have hated more

James Cameron has co-directed a Billie Eilish concert movie that will be released in theaters on March 20, 2026.

The concert movie will also be presented in 3D.

Piracy of film and tv has seen renewed support in the era where studios permanently remove availability and streaming services are gatekeeping content. It feels like hitting out against corporations and not at creatives (maybe dubious, but logical)

Pirating books DIRECTLY damages creatives.
I posted a buy link here to "A Magical Inheritance" a few days ago, and 24 of you immediately went to Anna's Archives and fucking stole it from me.

Yes, stole it.

I do not get paid for your download there because YOU ARE STEALING FROM ME.

Wicked For Good opens with jackbooted thugs bullying oxen into building the Yellow Brick Road like it’s the reichsautobahn so who’s to say if art is dead or not

Callaghan’s new “tough on immigration” rules will only affect a tiny proportion of immigrants—who also happen to be among the most vulnerable. The gov know that drastically reducing inward migration would be an act of self harm so they’ll pick on these asylum seekers as an act of performance. Sick

In addition to being dumb this was so laughably ineffective. Yer wan from Countdown, an avowed Zionist, wears a tshirt with a doctored image of Corbyn BEING ARRESTED AT AN ANTI-APARTHEID RALLY and the slogan is neither funny nor clever. Dopes hiring a dope
The actual real explanation always turns out to be way more dumb and insulting than you imagined it was.

In praise of this legend who I’m missing right now: the best song from her unfairly maligned third album, a real masterpiece of zillennial malaise, her utterly magical voice crooning out pure summer-sunset melancholy

My fucked up back means I’m missing Lorde tonight meaning that by the end of December I will have missed as concerts this year due to illness, injury and funerals as I’ve attended which, I won’t lie, doesn’t feel great!

Enoch and Isaac will obvs be ostracised in prison for being annoying little weirdos but I could see Ammi getting a little power and turning into Bev Keane from Midnight Mass
Four members of the Burke family could face jail time after a fresh round of High Court hearings involving Enoch Burke.

A judge recommended civil contempt charges be brought against the family after a series of outbursts in his courtroom:

Being a cinephile means spending a Friday night watching a contemplative piece of slow cinema like Train Dreams, but being a wife guy means getting drunk on hot whiskeys and watching the dumb new Mark Wahlberg Apple TV movie and I am steadfastly a wife guy before I’m a cinephile

Enoch pulling an Osama bin Laden on this one
i think Enoch Burke hiding in his house is the best possible outcome. Just keeps him away from annoying everyone but his family.

Alien races will never possibly understand the human capacity to dress something up as “law and order” when in reality it is naked spite, vindictiveness and childish malice
