Arguably the essential DVD Movie.

Donnie Darko (Film: 2001 / DVD: 2002) 🔊

Seeing this movie on a UHF station at three in the morning is one of the best things that happened to me as a teenager.

In case you wondered.

Gene Shalit died because his “oughtta see THE ODYSSEY” joke would have been too powerful.

MOLLY SURPRISED ME WITH A @cashbrowns.bsky.social ORIGINAL AAAHHH!!!

I’ve never heard of this platform, but any opportunity for more people to see Hertzfeldt’s work is a good thing. I’m proud to be quoted in his Wikipedia entry.

Cartoon Brew@cartoonbrew.bsky.social · yesterday

Don Hertzfeldt’s full catalog of films has found a new streaming home. Dropout has acquired a collection that includes ‘Rejected,’ ‘World of Tomorrow,’ ‘It’s Such a Beautiful Day,’ and more, with Annecy winner ‘Paper Trail’ arriving September 1. www.cartoonbrew.com/shorts/don-h...

Some enterprising theater needs to book a Travis Scott double feature of THE ODYSSEY and AGGRO DR1FT.

Pass the ball to Joe Dante so we can finally get JAWS 5: PEOPLE 0.

let's pretend: Universal announces a screenwriting contest for Jaws 5. What's your pitch?

This movie rules, and learning that it was made by Panos Cosmatos’s dad explains a LOT.

Vinegar Syndrome@vinsyn.bsky.social · yesterday

Director George P. Cosmatos' OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN is a wicked man-versus-rat thriller starring Peter Weller in his first lead role. VS is scratching and gnawing to deliver you this fast-moving chiller in 4K UHD, newly scanned from its original camera negative. 🐀 Order link in comments 🐀

Between this and the Marblehead guy, “Righteous Schlub at the Town Meeting” is becoming an important archetype of the 2020s.

chat can anyone verify that every single Flock camera has about 2-3 Ibs of copper and about 1-2 grams of gold

This is the moment my dad, who tuned into the TWIN PEAKS pilot as a fan of Mark Frost’s work on HILL STREET BLUES and who had never heard of David Lynch, realized he was watching something very special.

They should include this title card whenever an actor returns to a franchise after their “serious” career takes off.

It’s not my favorite movie of the year, and I’m not even sure it will make my top ten once the smoke clears, but I can see BACKROOMS being the one I end up rewatching the most.

Amazing that Marvel is learning the lesson of “people want to see movies about characters they like” at the exact same moment they’re pronouncing the Blade movie DOA.

Completely bonkers that I was alive at a time when the *Butthole Surfers* had a *number two hit* that you could hear on the *radio*.

One of my most deeply held crackpot theories is that people in general would be a lot less deranged if TV channels went back to having stable daily and weekly schedules. You can only get in so much trouble when you have to tune into the 1:30pm rerun of WHOSE LINE.

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

Currently sitting and reading in a non-corporate coffee shop in Harvard Square while the first Modern Lovers album plays in its entirety, and I’m pretty sure this is what patriotism feels like.

Gregg Araki’s delightfully smutty I WANT YOUR SEX is the rare satire of Gen-Z sexual hangups that feels more affectionate than mean-spirited. Review in Boston Hassle— catch it at @thecoolidge.bsky.social! bostonhassle.com/review-i-wan...

RIP Jeff “Monoman” Connolly, lead singer of the Lyres, certified crazy person, and writer of some of the best snotty rock & roll songs ever to come out of this town.

Been watching a lot of 80s/90s movies for a thing, and I know I’m not saying anything original here, but it really is astounding how far the base level of craftsmanship has dropped. Like, even something as trashy as THE GOOD SON could have shots like this and a sweeping Elmer Bernstein score.

Fun fact: this is the post office I walked to in high school to fill out a money order for a VHS copy of RAT PFINK A BOO BOO.

I'm not anywhere near the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge, but if I were? I would drag myself across the ground *by my teeth* to see a 4K screening of Mikey and Nicky. My goodness, how I love love love that movie. If you can't make it out to the Brattle Theatre, you owe it to yourself to stream it.

In preparation for this week’s column I watched FIRST BLOOD for the first time, and I am 100% convinced today’s online right-wingers would decry it as “woke.”
