Rewatching GREMLINS and on top of it being a great movie, it makes me want to make an on-the-Universal-backlot small town movie so badly. I think there would be so much goodwill towards a movie made this way in 2026.

I strongly recommend seeing this in theaters while you still can! I’m sure it’s a perfectly lovely home experience, but it is such a fun big audience movie!
#WakeUpDeadMan is now on Netflix, and is still in 500 theaters nationwide this week! See my pinned post for a theater finder link. ⏰💀🪦🍿🎟️

I know there is a lot of Media News today, but I hope it doesn’t get lost in the noise that @letterboxd.social is launching a Video Store by profiling unreleased gems (including IT ENDS!) and rare bangers. Some companies love movies, and it shows. So excited to be a small part of this!
💥 Letterboxd Video Store launches December 10 (ET). 👀

Announcing our Unreleased Gems shelf: rent these must-see films you can’t watch anywhere else. Available for a limited time only, through January 2. Regions and prices vary by title.

Netflix buying Warner Brothers is the day that Netflix officially becomes the establishment. It is both the day of their ascendancy and also the day that Netflix admits that they are now the incumbent power yearning to be disrupted by whatever comes next.

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'm happy to CG some vomit wranglers into both seasons of Blindspotting if HBO Max wants to add our show to its streaming platform.

Final day to back starfriends on kickstarter! @robdubbin.bsky.social and @garrett.bsky.social have made a party game classic.
Looking for a party game that combines social deduction with the pleasant absurdity of rating animals, films, and the weather on a scale of ★ to ★★★★★? And it's just a simple deck of cards? AND it's live on Kickstarter now?!?! Guess what, STARFRIENDS has launched! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bra...
Starfriends: The 5-Star Game About What Everyone Else Thinks
A party game where you get into your friends' heads. Kinda like a blend of Wavelength and Letterboxd that fits into a deck of cards.

I will be online a lot less over the next three months. Going to take some time to rebalance my relationship with computers, smart phones, and social technology. I will still check DMs every now and then, but otherwise see you in 2026!

Movies! Some absolute bangers that I’ve seen recently: One Battle After Another, Wake Up Dead Man, Sentimental Value, Sirât, The World of Love, and Left Handed Girl. I recommend all in theaters if/when they are available near you!

My friends made a game to play with friends!
our new game, in brief! friend 1 gets a card with say ★★ on it, friend 2 pulls a ★★★★ card. then you draw a topic, maybe “animal,” and pick one (1) animal you think friend 1 would rate ★★ and friend 2 would rate ★★★★. guess right and win their card(s)! on KS soon: www.kickstarter.com/projects/bra...
Coming soon: Starfriends: The 5-Star Game About What Everyone Else Thinks
A play-anywhere fusion of Wavelength, Letterboxd, and Apples to Apples, for friends and strangers alike.

This is one thing giant movie studios can still do--the crazy big swing that costs a lot of money and is not tied to an algorithm or concern about "viewer retention rate at minute three"--that no other entity can. It is one reason the film ecosystem still needs them.
if you're a person who doesn't see the unalloyed good in Warner Bros spending $150 million on a loose Pynchon adaptation by Paul Thomas Anderson, we simply do not occupy the same reality

A few months ago I had a chicken poutine dish at Ma Poule Mouilée in Montreal, and I have thought about it almost every day since then. One of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten in my life. If you’re ever in Montreal, I highly recommend stopping by.

I’m hearing from high up confidential sources that the rapture DID actually occur today, but the big G decided to leave all of us grimy worms to our squirming wriggly mortal lives.

I have been following the pace of development of video AI products, and I think we are a couple years away from blockbuster quality VFX trailer shots being cheaper and easier to do than a close up of a good actor doing good acting.

PREDATORS is coming out in a limited release this weekend! A smart, powerful, and unsettling documentary.
Paramount have an incredible documentary called PREDATORS that they picked up at Sundance, all about the complicated legacy of To Catch A Predator. I hope it doesn’t get somehow lost or forgotten in the Skydance merger.
