For @InRO, I wrote about DEMONLOVER, its eerie prescience, the brilliance of Olivier Assayas, and how everything feels bad. https://t.co/BH9Wf7eBC1

GODZILLA AGAINST MECHAGODZILLA (2002, Masaaki Tezuka): Essentially a feature-length episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion. A high point for the Millennium Era.

Threw on Now You See Me. Saw this in theaters in 2013, hated it then. But every so often, I get the masochistic urge to revisit it, and then I follow through on that decision. The most compulsively watchable movie I don’t even like. How did they ever pull that off.

When I was in high school, my film studies teacher said he hated Total Recall (1990) because it had “terrible continuity errors.” The lesson I took is you gotta learn to leave that shit behind.

I was also critical of the score in my LB blurb, but need to clarify that does not apply to this sequence here. (It’s mostly first hour stuff.)

“Isn't it sad what happened to Martha Stewart?" A most singularly incredible CBM, because everything’s wrong.

Pamela Anderson should win a "Best Original Song" Oscar next year for Sassafras Chicken in D. This is the only Oscar opinion I will stand by.
