The Razzie Award founders say they'd take back Shelley Duvall's 1981 Worst Actress nomination today. “Knowing the backstory and the way that Stanley Kubrick kind of pulverized her, I would take that back."
Chalamet's completely inability to tap into any sort of genuine eccentricity, delivering every line like he's a more cheerful Paul Atreides, could turn out to be a liability here.
Look at this. Ke Huy Quan is screaming at Harrison Ford "Why didn't you help me get more roles! I begged you to help me!" He's actually crying and Ford is just laughing at him. Disgusting.
tfw you're watching a movie and the main character is listening to a great song on the radio and the song suddenly gets a little bit louder and changes from diegetic to non-diegetic
I don't think I can take another round of Scorsese reflecting on his mortality and his desire to save the artform he loves more than anything in this world, thereby making people angrily declare that "there's room for both THE FLASH and whatever it is you do!"
this is very fair since we all know for a fact that Coppola begged Lucas for the money, and Lucas laughed at him and spit in his face. we all saw it happen with our own eyes.
If you thought the teaser for the live-action remake of
#TheLionKing
looked VERY familiar, you're not wrong. This video puts it side-by-side with the original:
Remember when James Franco started making a film of BLOOD MERIDIAN until a bunch of agents and lawyers loudly cleared their throats and reminded him that he needed to pay for the rights to the novel before he could do anything and he was like "Well this is news to me."
A ROSEMARY’S BABY prequel is coming, it’s called APARTMENT 7A and stars Julia Garner. It’s also directed by Natalie Erika James who helmed 2020’s RELIC. An attendee at a recent test-screening for this prequel called it “very intense.”
Just saw a tweet in which the tweeter talked about her "uncomfiness" regarding the very existence of the film OPPENHEIMER. People shouldn't have to go to movies fearing that they may become uncomfy.
I still can't get over Tarantino saying that Aaron Sorkin writes the "best dialogue in the business." I'm an unapologetic QT fan but he has the worst fucking taste, I swear to fucking God.
Please, PLEASE, for the love of God, purge from the discourse such phrases as "who was this movie for," "who asked for this movie," "this movie didn't need to be made," and all other variants on this idea that art is a "supply and demand" commodity.
We're watching THE HATEFUL EIGHT and inside I'm laughing at all the people who balked at Tarantino shooting a film in 70mm that mostly takes place indoors. Whatever you think of it otherwise, how can you not notice how good this fucking movie looks?
The idea going around today that Toni Collette was somehow bad in HEREDITARY is just further proof that the vast majority of people who talk about movies on this website are just a bunch of stupid punk-ass bitches.
He was the best Holmes. He trumped everyone who came before him, and everyone who has played the role since has done so in his shadow. There is no possible counter-argument. That's it, the end.

That's not my view. My point us with the proximity of their deaths, they obviously didn't kill one so they could replace him with the other.
Watching Siskel & Ebert. Just about had a heart attack when Siskel, fed up with bad children's movies and slasher films, wishing for movies for adults, said "I'm 35!" What they fuck are you talking about, "I'm 35"???
I've recently seen more than one person express disdain for Joaquin Phoenix's performance in THE MASTER. That is a truly remarkable piece of acting, and I do not think I can accept what this world has become any longer.
"Well, if the pay's right, and it's legal, I'll do it."
"It ain't exactly legal."
"Well, if the pay's right, I'll do it."
RIP M. Emmet Walsh, one of the all-timers.
This mildly terrifying CT scan was made by Scott Echols capturing tiny blood vessels in the head of a pigeon, created by a special ‘contrast agent’ to highlight the microvasculatory system [read more: ]
I feel like people aren't bringing up MOONRISE KINGDOM much the past few days, but it's easily one of Bruce Willis's best performances. As far as I'm concerned, he's the best thing about the whole movie.
I've seen a lot of people making fun of this, but he's talking about actually killing animals on-screen. Like CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST type shit. That doesn't strike me as especially hypocritical.
Just saw a tweet about The Blues Brothers that said the joke was that they were making fun of that music. Now I shall leap from a bridge. This is from the guy who made the whole "this is what the Eagles joke in LEBOWSKI was about."
I can't take it, guys. I cannot take it.
On the evening Robert Mueller submitted his report to the Justice Department, President Trump was on the tiled patio of Mar-a-Lago, bathed in golden light, with his wife and son Barron, who had reached teenagerhood two days earlier
OK Go recorded this music video shot in near-zero gravity aboard a parabolic airliner without using CGI, wires or green screen: the video was cut from one take filmed over 45 minutes of continuous flight.
Has any film critic ever written anything stupider than these opening paragraphs from Stephen Hunter's "revisit" of 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY? (he has a Pulitzer!)
I don't expect everyone to like Wes Anderson, but I can't fathom the people who dismiss him outright, considering how beige everything is right now. Like there's a dozen Wes Anderson clones peddling the same shit in Hollywood right now.
Anyway, loved THE FRENCH DISPATCH.
Beavis and Butthead upsets me. it makes me feel like an incompetent alien anthropologist: i genuinely dont know what I’m looking at. What does it mean?? Like yeah I get that it’s a hauntological persistence of Offensive Media MTV ‘80s culture but still
Were I asked, pre-BARRY, which SNL cast member, past or present, would be best at playing unnerving, uncontrollable rage, I don't think I would have said Bill Hader. But it turns out the answer is Bill Hader.
I know I'm a Coen brothers superfan, but I'm not kidding, and this is not hyperbole:
I'm not sure I've seen a more perfectly directed film than NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. It is *exquisitely* made. Immaculate. Should be studied. Et cetera.
remember how THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND finally got finished and it was on Netflix and we all watched it and thought it was great and now it's still there on Netflix and nobody ever talks about it?
