Daniel Chong’s #HOPPERS is the funniest Pixar movie in years, possibly ever, and packed with plenty of feel-good messaging about why we should never let the world convince us it’s not worth trying to make better. I’m obsessed with it. An instant classic.

This is not an adaptation of #WutheringHeights, but the result of what happens when you're playing an approximation of "Wuthering Heights" without a full grasp on the material but all the money in the world to bring your questionable imagination to life. https://t.co/rxNsylNVNf

Emerald Fennell's adaptation (and we use that term very loosely) of Wuthering Heights is both breathtaking and perplexing. Here’s our review.

I spoke with Harrison Browne about his plans for a feature, the impact of #HeatedRivalry on his activism and his creative endeavors, and how PINK LIGHT sidesteps the usual tropes of trans cinema to become the perfect story for the moment. https://t.co/9xyduVAjvv
slashfilm.com
Heated Rivalry co-star and trans filmmaker/retired hockey player Harrison Browne has a queer hockey short movie that's begging for a feature-length adaptation.

Not a fan of people telling journalists who just lost their jobs, “just start a substack,” or “learn new skills,” or “make your own opportunities.” As if this was a personal failure and not the result of the ruling class decimating media for their own benefit.

If you ignore the source material, Emerald Fennell's #WutheringHeights is a sight to behold. Luscious visuals and fantastic performances (especially Alison Oliver) provide a sensual, cinematic feast, but if you're familiar with Brontë's novel, you may be yearning for more.

By telling more intimate stories like #WonderMan, Marvel taps back into that core strength — reminding us that heroes matter most when they feel human first, and super second. Full Review at /Film:

Wonder Man is a grounded, mature character study that pulls back the curtain on the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Here's our review.

Thank god for Sam Raimi. #SendHelp is exactly the kind of bodily fluid freak shit I crave from him, and Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien are so committed to @shannonandswift’s script that it’s impossible not to have a blast. Delightfully disgusting disaster women 4 ever.

Hi friends, I’m about two weeks or so out from my finances completely drying up. I’m ready to work. I can produce, write, direct, I’ve even been a production coordinator etc. If you know of or hear anything please send it my way. Things are getting dire. Love you!
Hey look it’s my reel! I’ve worked everything from Netflix to new media. I’m familiar with everything on the production pipeline in front of and behind the camera. Hire me! I’m a fast learner and a hard worker. I’ll be a great part of your team.

I adore OFF THE AIR on @adultswim. After 15 years of weirdness, I'm thrilled that the series isn't slowing down or holding back after all these years. https://t.co/NVehznWm8V

If you're looking for off-the-wall curation and creation on TV, look no further than Adult Swim's Off the Air, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary.

I can’t imagine a better season finale of #HeatedRivalry than the one we got. I wrote about why I loved it so much, why Shane and Yuna’s scene hit way too close to home, and why this was the best way to end 2025. https://t.co/yrWHxMoYsp

In a time when things are so dark for so many real-life people, Heated Rivalry's revelatory season 1 finale has provided some much-needed sunshine.

The penultimate episode of #HeatedRivalry was, with no exaggeration, one of the best episodes of TV in 2025. Every element has come together with perfection, and I can't imagine anything else topping this for me this year. https://t.co/NhrrUr18O5

With its outstanding performances and spectacular visual storytelling, Heated Rivalry season 1's penultimate episode proves the show is the real deal.

.@CraveCanada/@HBOMax's gay hockey romance #HeatedRivalry, is the hottest TV show right now — and I'm not talking about the sex. “The show has become a force to be reckoned with,” @bjcolangelo tells me. For @YahooEnt, I dig into the #Hollanov craze:
yahoo.com
The Crave/HBO Max show has ushered in a wave of #Hollanov memes, steamy fan edits and passionate — and sometimes NSFW — fan reactions.

Crashed out so hard about THAT needle-drop in #HeatedRivalry episode 4 that I wrote an entire article about it. https://t.co/P05S8fVt50
slashfilm.com
The fourth episode of Heated Rivalry includes a needle-drop that evokes queer longing and desire like none other, and viewers are still reeling from it.

I love the steaminess of #HeatedRivalry, but there are more reasons to watch. Jacob Tierney's direction and the microexpression work of the actors is sublime — especially as mainstream American-produced streaming prioritizes "passive viewing." https://t.co/3A7bMvlxFY
slashfilm.com
The hit Canadian series Heated Rivalry is a breath of fresh air in a streaming landscape actively suffocating its audiences.

If Zootopia was a film teaching not to judge a book by its cover, #Zootopia2 is an exploration of how the stereotypes came to be, and the lengths the wealthy elite will go to maintain the status quo. Read More:

Zootopia 2 is the rare example of a follow-up film that can live up to the high bar set by the first movie. Here's our review.

WICKED: FOR GOOD has the same structural problems that Act II has always had, but Erivo and Grande-Butera are so committed to Gelphie that I truly don’t care. I will always be a musical theatre belt-singer who cries during “For Good.” 🤷🏻♀️ https://t.co/Jm9bsKVk96
slashfilm.com
While not as successful as the first film, Wicked: For Good remedies many of the musical's second act shortcomings through emotional power. Here's our review.
