I refuse to believe this is reality and not a scene from VEEP

Only bangers in here, but Soi Cheang’s TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN is possibly the best pregame for THE FURIOUS that one could ask for

Terence Stamp in THE LIMEY is what cinema is all about, RIP to a great

Just so long as we get regular behind-the-scenes dispatches from Bobita

Sam Neill in POSSESSION, one of the great performances of all time up there alongside Isabelle Adjani’s in the same film, he was an absolute legend

Hardest I laughed at a punchline this year

For his work in BLACKBERRY, Glenn Howerton is nominated for Best Supporting Performance at the Independent Spirit Awards

Soderbergh’s BLACK BAG is probably the new film I rewatched most last year, both for its profoundly satisfying sense of formal and narrative efficiency and for the polygraph scene that Marisa Abela steals out from under everyone

James Gray distilled so well what’s going on with the limited “mass appeal” of superhero films: studios oversaturating one genre, homogenizing the cinematic experience, getting wider audiences out of the habit of going to theaters. This is the end result.

It’s a dark day for fans of the year’s best original song: “Dear Alien (Who Art In Heaven),” from Wes Anderson’s ASTEROID CITY

Anyway, remember that time David Lynch read out Bob Iger’s mailing address on Letterman in an effort to convince him not to cancel TWIN PEAKS

THE MUMMY’s IMAX trailer with some audio tracks missing is still Universal’s crowning achievement

I am patiently awaiting Park Chan-wook’s Vietnam War espionage thriller series co-starring Robert Downey Jr. in multiple roles

“You corporate lackey! Who told you your incompetent little fingers had the requisite skills to edit me!”

For anyone doubting that’s Robert Pattinson’s real voice in MICKEY 17, reupping his voice performance in the English dub of THE BOY AND THE HERON, goblin mode is his default

The atomic breath scene in SHIN GODZILLA is probably my favorite Godzilla scene of all time.

Funniest scene of the year is a tough call until you remember that HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS exists

It’s almost time for the feel bad movie of Christmas (still one of the hardest trailers I’ve ever seen)

STARMAN must have one of the most beautiful, breathtaking final shots in cinema history: Carpenter’s camera on Karen Allen’s face as she watches the ship lift off, wonder and loss shining in her eyes, the theme soaring as she’s bathed in a halo of light

Anyone who doesn’t think Ryan Gosling is one of our funniest leading men clearly hasn’t seen THE NICE GUYS
