I love the #movie #SuperTroopers! I saw it in theaters when it was released. It is still funny today.
Today I started watching the sequel.
Now, I'm only 45 minutes into it, but just you wait. 'cause once the jokes start, it's gonna be awesome!
and in the last one Buzzy fly in a science lab and land under a microscope.

$NPR All Things Considered just played their original review of Jaws by Tom Shales, which is an absolute gem for the ear. He liked the movie.
It’s a bit surprising to me (even being a lifelong NPR listener) that I still can recognize his voice, even from the ’70s.

I'm re-watching "Don't Look Up" and I had forgotten about all the small details in this great movie: that weird tech billionaire Steve Jobs type and his product presentation where the audience is told to not make eye contact and "no negative facial expressions".

A look at Apple's vision for Apple TV and its film business, as Tim Cook says the company's $200M bet on the F1 movie is about more than selling iPhones (Cynthia Littleton/Variety)

Part of the problem of selling a show or movie to CBS or Paramount or Skydance, or booking an acting role on a project of theirs is purely business.
If potus decides he doesn’t like a project, CEOs George Cheeks, Brian Robbins & David Ellison will kill the project regardless of how well it does. They did just now to Colbert & The Late Show (number 1 in its time slot).
Why start business w/them that hurts others & will hurt you the moment they feel like it.
I keep thinking about how great the #speedracer movie was.
New plan: take a fresh, original movie and turn it into a tired 256-episode sitcom.
Last Year I spend a little more than 10 Day on a Tiger Mosquito for e French TV documentary.

The cool old movie theater in town (celebrating their 93rd anniversary this year!) has a weekly summer blockbuster series. Tonight the whole family went to see The Dark Knight.

i was put in charge of three grandchildren for a few hours yesterday so we headed straight to ben & jerry's to split a milkshake, then explored the state theater (and even sneaked into a movie but later got thrown out for horsing around on the escalator), then i gave a nickel tour of angell/mason/haven halls, then they chased squirrels on the diag which took longer than you might think, then we looked in all the windows in nickels arcade. it all went slowly and well.

Totoro spoilers
Re the quoted post from @…:
The very first time I saw My Neighbor Totoro, it was because a friend cajoled me into attending the student anime club’s showing with absolutely no context whatsoever except “you •have• to see this movie, Paul.” I had no idea what genre it was. I had no idea that it was a movie considered suitable for kids. The last anime I’d seen was IIRC Ghost in the Shell; I was ready for anything.
When Mei went missing, I thought, “omg, is this a tragedy? I think this story is a tragedy!” The whole time they were looking for her, I was absolutely terrified. I thought for sure they’d found her sandal. I still tear up when they find her now, on every rewatching.
I’m so glad for that first viewing. It’s a much better movie that way. When you’re expecting an innocent movie about cute forest plushies, you see that. But when you see that it could be a tragedy — the mother’s shadowy illness, the lost child — it hits hard. https://wandering.shop/@Violinknitter/114792748619083661
Have you ever seen the magnificent movie "The Magnificent Ambersons"? (It is one of the great films of all times even after the studio hacked Wells and Hermann's full work.)
In the film, the kid George, is a self-centered, wealthy, narcissistic sociopath - not at all unlike El Presidente trump.
Everyone wishes that George will "get his comeuppance".
That comeuppance does indeed come - but so late that nobody notices or remembers.
It is pretty…

The original Jurassic Park flick was released in U.S. theaters today (June 11) in 1993. I was 13 at the time, and had actually read Crichton's book. I was psyched to see Jurassic Park in the theater, which I did, with my family. I loved it- it was wild. I was intrigued by dinosaurs then, and still am. But this was and still is the only JP movie I've seen- I never saw any of the sequels.
I've certainly had a crush on Laura Dern ever since 😍

Movie idea: Under the mistaken belief that all costs were covered by a Read & Publish agreement, a researcher publishes an open access article in a journal. However, he then discovers that color figures aren’t covered, and now he owes the Cartel over 1600 Swiss francs. The chase is on as the Cartel is determined to get their hands on the money, no matter what.

Just finished reading Dream State by Eric Puchner, and it kind of pissed me off. I think I can see exactly why it might be popular with a certain WASPy liberal "literati" type that probably includes a lot of influential reviewers, but to me, it's points about love & life, despite being much more complex, ring just about as hollow (and harmful) as a Disney movie.
I've got a lot of quibbles, but I think most galling to me was a throwaway line near the beginning about why platonic relationships get so much less glory in media than romantic ones, when so much of the plot proceeds to revolve around a stale agency-free romantic attraction model that's certainly more complex on its face than a Disney romance but which is ultimately just as misleading.
Go read Loveless or really any YA #OwnVoices romance (especially queer) and you'll be learning more & better lessons about the human condition.
We have not gone to a movie theatre in decades. Over-priced and even back then the price of munchies were outrageous. With the wife in a wheelchair there is a limit on where we can sit and enjoy a movie.
For the most part I will wait until the DVD or blueray video comes out and for a lot less than two tickets I can buy the movie and watch it any time I want, as often as I want, with pauses when we want and replay any section!

Say hello to the movie that grabbed me by the guts and never let go — Joker from 2019, my favorite film, raw and wild and real.

Why is there smoking in this movie? Two scenes and counting.
I watched the Disney, two season, series on the risk of Industrial Light and Magic (ILM).
It was interesting.
And last night I watched a Studio Ghibli film.
I am active in live theatre - living actors on a stage before a live audience.
It struck me that movie making a la ILM tends to glorify the scenery without necessarily adding to the impact of the story.
I can understand how filmmakers want to immerse the audience in a different reality. But I don't thin…
