This reminds me that the exact moment I knew The Running Man was bad was the product placement for Liquid Death (which is like 10 mins into the film).
United Talent Agency has signed literal type of cheese Parmigiano Reggiano to its roster with the goal of finding product-placement opportunities for the brand in film and TV

Excellent audience question at a screening of The Testament of Ann Lee. To Amanda Seyfried: if Ann Lee [18th century founder of the Shakers] were alive today, what would her fashion sense be like?

It would be nice if Benny Safdie stood outside the cinema with a sandwich board for Marty Supreme. Josh really shoulda done it for Smashing Machine.

Really wanted to like this one, but just doesn't work. Didn't even have space in the review to address some of the most pitiful and thin women characters in a long time…

What about they find his identical twin?
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Thrilled to write even more about BUGONIA, this time over at @lwlies.com where I look at the film as a synthesis of the various strains of Stanley Kubrick running through the work of Yorgos Lanthimos. (Many thnaks to @daveyjenkins.bsky.social for helping focus the idea!) lwlies.com/this-just-in...
Yorgos Lanthimos, Bugonia, and the Long Shadow of Stanley Kubrick
Kubrickian echoes reverberate throughout the Greek filmmaker's oeuvre. With Bugonia, those connections are shaped into a singular package that transcends…

Relay is almost really good. Case of when a film has to stick or twist, and makes the wrong choice.

Guillermo del Toro handles Mary Shelley’s canonical text with the tenderness of a butterfly, exulting in the author’s wisdom and sense of high tragedy while bringing his own steampunk spin to the material.

Rose of Nevada is a fascinating Brexit movie, George McKay as the collective Ego (rejecting the nostalgic past) and Callum Turner as the collective Id (finding salvation in a mythical before time).
