I have kind of kept this fact hidden because of what it says about me but I have never seen myself reflected as comprehensively in a character as Diane Keaton in Looking For Mr. Goodbar. Like that’s just me sadly

the irony of cutting so many critic roles? sure, every publication might have a review of a new show, but at least they are *different*. you can't say the same about silly celebrity news items that no one will ever return to.

Why do "personal" and "culturally specific" animated movies often fail? Because executives are terrified of them and often micromanage them into bland irrelevance that's neither personal or mass-appeal.
In this case, they accidentally let a voice through and got so scared they threw away billions.

We can either have informed film critics who are beholden to no one or we can have influencers whose livelihoods depend on staying in the good graces of studios’ marketing departments. The moment to choose was yesterday, but we can still hold onto some small patch of grass.
The city that gave the world Siskel & Ebert no longer has a full-time print film critic.
Chicago Tribune film critic Michael Phillips announces he has taken a buyout and the Trib is eliminating his post. Unless I am missing someone I believe this leaves the nation's third-largest city without a single full-time film writing gig.

If you care about film writing -- or you know ANY AND ALL OF HUMANITY -- please skip those summaries and go to actual websites
The missing piece of the equation explaining why so many critic positions are being eliminated is the little AI summaries at the top of Google results, which reduced click-throughs drastically. Once again, a tech company has stolen human labor and monetized it and doesn't care about the impact.

covered The Siege as a potential five-star three-star movie, but discovered it's actually too good for that distinction (though still imperfect)

THE SIEGE is the kind of good movie you get when Hollywood is accidentally a lot more honest about America than it normally is. (On all levels, you literally couldn't make the movie after 9/11.) I am duty-bound to always shout out this video essay by @honorszombie.bsky.social: vimeo.com/420865434
