I completely understand why folks want to interview Kane Parsons about Backrooms, but it saddens me that I can't find a single interview with the movie's screenwriter.

I love Blade Runner.

Seinfeld 2026: George rents a wheelchair to attend an otherwise sold-out screening of The Odyssey in IMAX 70mm.

If you still have a local comic shop, I heartily suggest picking up Darrow's latest Shaolin Cowboy offering, "Stayin' A.I. Live". I think it might be his best work yet.

Happy 20th, Dead Man's Chest. Here's one of my favorite deleted exchanges, from Ted & Terry's screenplay:

Hard to believe, but it's 20 years today that Pirates of The Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest was released into the world. Lightning in a bottle, as they say. #VFX #Film #Animation #PiratesofTheCaribbean

I love Ghostbusters.

Following today's reveal of Ghostbusters: Night Shift, Netflix has shared higher-resolution images from the upcoming animated series, offering fans a closer look at the show's gritty 1994 setting and supernatural threats. 👻🚫 MORE ON GHOSTBUSTERS: NIGHT SHIFT: ghostbustersnews.com/2026/06/24/n...

Toy Story 5 rocks, so allow me to recount my favorite Toy Story memory: The Comic-Con panel for Toy Story That Time Forgot was moderated by Michael Giacchino. While introducing Kristen Schaal, he mistakenly referred to Don Knotts instead of Don Rickles ...

I was charmed by the wholesome chaos of Six Flags' DC Heroes & Villains Fest. It's a testament to the power of live entertainment to transform the feeling of a space, even when there isn't an explicitly interactive experiential scaffolding.

We lost Joe Negri yesterday. I've been thinking a lot about the neighborhood recently. I had made myself his hat just a few weeks ago. Makes me feel good, wearing it around. Rest in peace, neighbor.

Thrilled to see THE ANIMATRIX on the big screen this morning, thanks to @secretmovieclub.bsky.social! Also, the hallway to the subterranean restrooms at the Million Dollar Theater felt thematically appropriate.

I attended @thedorkydiva.bsky.social's Dagobah Swamp Social as Irvin Kershner, after last year's appearance as Larry Kasdan at their Hoth Bash! (You may be able to guess what madness will be committed upon my facial hair next year....) Please note the stack of Saja rocks I added to my build-a-bog:

Visiting the Barnsdall Art Park for a screening of The Rocketeer! There's an exhibit of artifacts bookended by a comp sketch for the cover of Howard Hughes' jetpack blueprint folio and one of the four final props made to be burnt on screen. (It was rescued from the fireplace after an early take.)

I saw Laraine Newman play Dobbu Scay tonight, and all is right with the world.

Werner Herzog should be in every wrestling documentary.

Reality Escape Pod did an episode with someone who helped bring the book S / Ship of Theseus into the world, and one of the wildest revelations? Rumors of the book using scent to make the book smell older was just that - rumor and apophenia.

I know they aren't likely to bother offering a popcorn bucket for the one-night Speed Racer IMAX rerelease next week, but if they did it should be this prop from the movie:

I saw someone bemoan the current, combat-free state of The Matrix Online fan-hosted emulator as a "walking simulator," and I thought that sounded like heaven so I jacked in for a few hours.
