Conspiracy-minded thinking has infected everything. “I didn’t like this movie, and I *must* be right, so everyone who says they liked it must be lying/have an ulterior motive.” Brain-damaged society.

So all of it started because they decided to push the woman, and when the dude stepped in to stop them from assaulting her, they killed him. Insane.
Drop Site obtained harrowing footage of the latest killing which appears to be from the perspective of the woman in pink filming from the sidewalk

Actually I think most of film twitter spends too much time watching new releases and not enough watching old movies
film twt when awards season hits and they’re forced to binge the oscar nominees instead of watching silent films from 1920s and european movies that only 30 people logged on letterboxd https://t.co/9vaT8NxU6i

I think I'm just really tired of endlessly ingesting the disingenuous entertainment opinions of people who clearly have ulterior motives, axes to grind & unrelated beliefs that are driving those opinions. If you're being honest & pleasant, great. But the rest is just exhausting.

This might be the most perfectly curated Best Supporting Actress lineup of the decade, with a strong and distinct narrative behind every woman: Elle Fanning: She’s been working steadily since childhood, and this nomination feels like long-overdue recognition for years of
Can we talk about how strong and powerful is this lineup? Literally the most powerful and talented “Oscar’s- Best Supporting Actress” lineup in yearssss

I’ve seen several people make this point, but it bears repeating: a staggering number of Americans are about to realize that the government had the capacity to help them all along simply chose not to, because those in power did not prioritize their lives or well-being.
Mamdani on The View on new funding for universal childcare: "We actually have a mother in the audience -- Mallory -- who when the announcement was made, texted her husband to say, 'It might be time for a second kid.'" Hosts: "Awwww"

Europe took on Trump — and won. Total surrender by Trump after he humiliated himself and the nation on the world stage.
The is not a new deal - this is Trump surrendering. For now. They have always said that the US & NATO is free to do what it wants in Greenland from a military perspective. Trump said that wasn’t good enough because he needs the US to “own” it. So this is simply Trump backing down

Nigel Farage hid away all weekend when his puppet master humiliated the right-wing over Greenland. Farage today found his voice again clapping like a performing seal to Trump's bullying the Uk over Chagos. Farage is the opposite of national sovereignty.

why do ppl not realize that 95% of film workers are fleeting from job to job just barely scraping by, something you hated about a show was 6 degrees above our paygrade and harassing us abt it on twitter is like yelling "Jeff Bezos is evil" but at the checkout person at wholefoods

If we had met Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi as exactly the same person he was in Return of the Jedi—just with gray hair—it wouldn't have been heroic; it would have been stagnant. Thirty-five years changes everyone. To expect Luke to remain the optimistic youth forever is to

It is genuinely embarrassing to watch the wealthiest man in history pretend to be an underdog. He owns the satellites and the social media. He also has the ear of the President. Yet he spends every day posting like he is a helpless victim of a system he literally controls

"The Last Jedi ruined Luke's character" No Chad, it actually made him a more interesting, complex, and realistic hero.

@JoshDenofNerds That's a pretty strong, and, sadly, wrong, opinion on Andor. Having conversed with everyone from George, to my producing partner, the late, great Gary Kurtz, to the best man at my wedding, John Knoll, who created the original story for Rogue One, about what Star Wars "is" or

Any "opinion" that starts with "Women killed [insert media here]" should not be taken seriously. Women have been apart of these spaces for a long time...and this is a man in his 60s saying this bullshit. See what happens when you're brainwashed? The pfp says it all.

film education is a lifelong process. we’re always playing catch-up with each other. I have so many blindspots that I want to fill. my formal film education was very limited. I used to feel anxious and bad about everything I haven’t seen yet. but now I’m just excited.
