FALLING DOWN rocks. It’s practically a GTA movie. Don’t care if they’re problematic, Michael Douglas’ rants are amazing.
Bring Me The Head of Ramona Garcia@razorgirl1984.bsky.social · 38m agoFalling Down is free to watch on YouTube so if you got two hours to spare, go peep it, it's really really good.
The Netflix TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE deserves a reappraisal. It’s 81 mins, contains the ONLY actual chainsaw massacre in the franchise, and flouts elevated horror norms by flirting with em then going, “nah, a chainsaw man is scarier.” That’s a lot better than most slasher sequels decades later.
I have never listened to a Shane Gillis bit, so he can rank no higher than my third favourite Gillis

The current Oliver Jewellery ads are so lame. Russell Oliver’s sons have no rizz.
32 years ago today, we held the launch party for DOOM II at the Limelight in NYC, a former church. Happy birthday to DOOM II, but also, happy birthday to the Super Shotgun, the be-all and end-all of many a monster.

Scott D'Agostino@immortanscott.bsky.social · yesterdayHad an interesting experience with this type of jokers before. I went to the 40th anniversary re-release of E.T. & there was a pair of irony-poisoned teens behind me that were laughing at anything that looked old. The movie ended up defeating their irony & they were openly sobbing at the end.

why does this look like it's full of many many dead bodies
First watch: 52 Pick-Up (1986). Another John Frankenheimer joint and more successful, for me, than his French Connection sequel. It's also an underrated Elmore Leonard adaptation, with Roy Scheider playing a company boss who falls victim to a blackmailing scheme after an affair with an erotic dancer
nothing is better than buying a shirt on a whim, completely forgetting you did it, and having it show up a week later
The 1987 remix basically launched the entire Grocerycore concept, it’s this bigger version that became a standard youtu.be/xOTjkQMdF6o
