Anyhow, I found PREDATOR: BADLANDS to be a lot of fun.
But you know, three dots from a Plasmacaster to my forehead, I kinda liked all of the Predator movies to varying degrees.

I’m still trying to make it out for Nick Cheung’s psychological thriller PEG ‘O MY HEART but there’s only one screening daily and always after 10 pm.

NOBODY (浪浪山小妖怪): China’s highest-grossing 2D animated film follows 4 low-level monsters striving for fame by pretending to be the pilgrims of “Journey to the West” and becoming heroes in unexpected ways. Funny and heartfelt, decent animation though overall I still like THE LEGEND OF HEI 2 more.

VIOLENT ENDS: the downfall of an Arkansas crime family is telegraphed right in the title but the journey there is still worth taking thanks to a solid cast from lead Billy Magnussen to James Badge Dale, oozing scuzzy menace even when berating a henchman an “incestuous donut hole”.

The return of BAAHUBALI in theaters reminds me of SS Rajamouli’s greatest artistic triumph and my favorite subgenre of advertisement: financial services ads featuring famous filmmakers.

Thank you for programming the intermission into the DCP.
BAAHUBALI is still great entertainment (especially when the audience hoots and cheers whenever Prabhas does something cool) and the re-edit works well save for maybe one or two really obvious abridgments.

Happy birthday to @robsaucedo.bsky.social, program director at the River Oaks Theater. A cinephile of impeccable taste and a leading light in Juggalo-American studies (as evidenced by this 2019 photo from his previous position at the Alamo Drafthouse).

The Taiwan Film and Audiovisual Institute is tackling the film scholarship I want to see with ENTER THE BRONATION, a 14-movie retrospective of lone heroes against long odds from Bruce Lee to THE RAID: REDEMPTION. A standout is a 4K restoration of Junya Sato’s MANHUNT (1976) with English subs.
