Genuinely think this might be the funniest gag in the entire show to me and I do not know why
Everyone is posting their favorite South Park clips so here’s one of mine.

Blocking every account that does nothing but yell at people about how M*chael is the best movie of all time just to make award season far less of a headache. I advise you to do the same.

The “Maga” in Krav Maga actually stands for “make America great again”

When Macgruber has sex with his dead wife’s ghost on top of her gravestone
What’s a sex scene that was genuinely essential to the story, revealing something about the characters or changing the course of the plot, rather than just being there for the sake of it?

Death Has No Master played at Cannes and has a producer based here in London, ON. This hellish slow burn about colonialism may be a little too slow, but it looks absolutely fantastic and builds to a really great climax. #FCFF #ldnont boxd.it/gV5MI7

Sorry, but both La Bola Negra and All of a Sudden leaking online on the same day is disgusting shit. See these films on a big screen, I implore you. Give them your money. They deserve it.

The defeatist mindset is more getting in the way than money. No one wants to befriend someone who is a downer, trust me. It doesn’t work. It is easy to make friends as an adult you just have to get used to getting out and doing things
This is great if you still live around people you went to high school or college with. Many, many, many people don't do that. And in order to make the kinds of friendships where you CAN just go to each other's houses, you very often need to start with activities that cost money

One thing that I think hampers a lot of film writing (especially social media takes), is that people often seem too concerned with how other people perceive their taste.

TV has always been mostly slop - makes sense that it gets replaced by more algorithmically personalised content. What’s interesting is that this correlates with a growing interest in cinema among young people as an artistic alternative (rather than the compromise of prestige TV)
Part of this is diminished attention spans, but also, short-form video is often more entertaining and interesting than conventional television. There are a lot of funny and talented and intelligent people out there, making their little videos, and I think that's neat.

Nathan: Do you understand why this is scary? Elizabeth: The girl is sick? Nathan: Sorta. The girl’s head is on backwards and she says the priest’s dead mother will perform fellatio for all eternity. Billy: [listening to Mein Kampf at 3x speed]: The 19th Amendment was a mistake

re: Ebert occasionally "missing" on a great movie, I think people forget that the point of criticizing art is not to be "correct," it's to engage with the work sincerely; a critic should be evaluated less on "correctness" and more the consistency/depth of their work

Filmmaking can never be ethical. You are stealing light and sound and putting it inside a little box. That is not nice
