1000% worth it! definitely give this piece a read.
I’ve been thinking about the design of the visitors’ center in this movie for six months. SIX. WHOLE. MONTHS.
So I finally wrote about it.

WB not wanting their two films to go head to head in every category, lol.
How the fuck is One Battle After Another counted as a Musical or Comedy when Sinners is a drama?!? Make it make sense!

this is super random, but no less important for me to say:
thank you to all of you for knowing me. not because i’m going anywhere, lol. for knowing what i might say. knowing things i might like. knowing where i might be, what i might be watching, what i might be talking about or writing about.

wasn’t at all worried about MBJ. thrilled tessa’s performance hasn’t been forgotten. it’s a TOUGH year for lead actress (jessie buckley and rose byrne are poised to rack up awards), so the noms for her are impactful.

If you're watching Heated Rivalry and thinking, "Holy shit there's all this sex and pleasure and fun and yearning and character exploration and I think they might figure it out and find happiness, is this even legal???" I am begging you to start reading genre romance, you are going to be thrilled!

The WHY IS THERE SO MUCH BONING IN THE BONING GENRE "Heated Rivalry" takes are so much less interesting than the ones from young gay men being broken open in real time by discovering yearning.

all but TRAIN DREAMS and MARTY SUPREME — will probably see the former this weekend and i already have a ticket booked for the latter.
i won’t be seeing AVATAR or WICKED.

How many of these films have you seen? Sadly, only one for me (Sinners). I must catch up before the Oscars. This list is a good predictor for Best Picture nominations. I’ve heard great things about Bugonia, Train Dreams (filmed in WA!), Frankenstein and Hamnet.

tricky thing with Sinners is we end up centring "white vampires vs black musicians" in our conversations, failing to take into account that the movie is literally called "Sinners," opens with a guy choosing whether to stay in his dad's church, and every conversation in the movie is about choices
