It's worth noting that the Clint Howard ICE CREAM MAN is pretty lousy, and doesn't need to be held up as a "watch this instead" re the new one. It's hardly a better use of your time. Just, you know, go for actual ice cream.

In four days, BRAND NEW DAY has already outgrossed the worldwide totals of all but three of the MCU movies released post-Endgame. Two of which are the previous Spider-Man movies. (Deadpool and Wolverine being the other.)

BRAND NEW DAY didn't need Hulk and turning it into a two-hander in the last hour didn't do the pace any favors, but the action and Peter's dramatic arc (plus his interplay with Frank) made it a good time all the same. Also the "NY loves Spidey" aspect was lovely.

Hell yeah, that magical moment when the last trailer ends, heralding the chain of three (3) advertisements for the theater I am already sitting in before the movie finally starts, 30 minutes after the posted showtime. POWER OF AMC, BABY!

Stoked that Vinegar Syndrome is putting OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN out in 4K with new extras (Weller interview!) but alas, I can't justify the cost of their discs when it's an upgrade from a Blu I already paid for. The subscribers who haven't seen it yet are in for a treat though. That movie rules.

I promise I'll stop sharing this soon, but we're really close to completing the current phase and I (think) unlocking the final stretch. This cost about what I make in a year as a freelance writer. Anything helps, even a share. <3 www.gofundme.com/f/bj-needs-a...
