Ok. Now I know he’s only producing Supergirl, but James Gunn does (sometimes unfortunately) love his needle drops to songs in films. All I keep thinking is that there’s a solid chance that XTC’s 1986 That’s Really Super, Supergirl may be a needle drop in the forthcoming film? I did not predict Teddybears Punkrocker in…

I think it is a great reimaging of a character.
I wasn’t a huge fan of the last Black Panther film. I mean, it was fine and all, but they should have just recast the lead. Treating actor Chadwick Boseman like he was some sacred actor who couldn’t be replaced and all just was… odd. This is show business. Not show friends. Anyway… the one…
This is how you get a Butlerian Jihad!
This is how you get a Butlerian Jihad! Seriously though, don’t we all want to start a jihad for Christmas? Especially now… against AI?
📼 Chad Stahelski’s “John Wick” (2014) 📼
I came to 2014’s John Wick years after it was released. Though I knew there was a film series out there, I don’t know why, but it was just not on my radar as something to watch. I typically am not into pointless gore/action films and I assumed it was just that in a long…
📼 Martin Scorsese’s “Casino” (1995) 📼
Rewatched Martin Scorsese’s 1995 film Casino today. I had forgotten what an incredible film this is. It is amazing he Scorsese intercuts the casino operations early on, building up the whole thing and then as time progresses so much of that slowly falls until it crashes down. De Niro and Pesci are fantastic. I had…
KILL BILL: The Whole Bloody Affair
I am very much loving the new poster art for the combined re-release of Kill Bill as one film! Not sure if I’ll go see it or not. I mean, I’ve seen both films multiple times and am not sure I can sit through a single version of them. That’s a long time sitting in…
Our Gang!!!
Cool! Shout! Studios id livestreaming old (no… ancient) Our Gang (Little Rascals) shorts! Another world. Another era. But they have a charm that has never really been duplicated. I would LOVE an actual South Park episode in the vein of an old Our Gang episode! That could be fun in an anachronistic kind of way….
KPop Demon Hunters was unexpectedly great!
So this was never going to be on my radar since 1) I don’t like girl/boy bands, 2) I have no interest in corporate created music “groups”, and 3) I’m not really into anything that would today be considered pop music. And yet, I saw various rumblings through the YouTubers I watch that it was…
🎧 Graham Gouldman’s 1980 Soundtrack to the film “Animalympics” 🎧
I have been an Animalympics stan since I was 11. I replayed endlessly on Showtime in 1981 and I must have watched it 150 times that summer. It is great animated comedy/spoof with a soundtrack and incidental music by the Yardbirds’ Graham Gouldman that is a billion times better than it has any right to…
Terrance Stamp (1938-2025)
The great Terrance Stamp has died. I cannot think of any role he ever was in that I did not enjoy. He took on so many different types of characters. He was the one of the GOATS of cinema! And quite frankly, nobody else could have played Bernadette in Priscilla Queen of The Desert quite…
