Imagining some kid in 1989 going to the theater, seeing The Little Mermaid and All Dogs Go to Heaven on the same day, and getting the worst whiplash of their life.

Worth pointing out this was the first time I've seen Zootopia since 2016.
Good movie.

I admire whoever made the trailer for THE BRIDE! for making what might be the most alienating teaser trailer for any mainstream studio film this decade.

Sometimes people ask me why I don't pirate movies more often and the simple answer is that I hate watching movies on a computer screen.

Calling childcare "goodies," like it's a decadent dessert -- Oh I couldn't possibly! ... Or could I? -- is straight up evil shit and if you think like this you got a fucking hole in your soul. Same with the "ice cream and ponies" shit they all pulled about M4A.

THE RUNNING MAN is Edgar Wright's messiest film, but it's also a ton of fun and a solid thrill ride all the way through.
