MaXXXine
As someone who has not seen X, but did see (and love) Pearl I was excited to see MaXXXine. I thought Mia Goth was absolutely robbed in awards season for Pearl, it was truly one of my favorite horror movies that I have ever seen. I expect that X and MaXXXine can’t be that different in quality (she said hopefully). It has taken me all year to get to something that was released in July, but I fell way behind on movies so here we go.

My Spy: The Eternal City
Dave Bautista is undeniably the best wrestler turned actor. He is genuinely incredible, that said he is in a deep danger of being typecast with the other wrestler/actors as an action star. Not that he isn’t good at it, he most certainly is. But he was the best part of Knock On The Cabin and he has an amazing range so I would love to see him do more softer things. All that out of the way he did get a sequel for My Spy which actually seems to balance the two things pretty well. So we are watching My Spy: The Eternal City.

David Lynch (January 20, 1946 - January 16, 2025)
“WHAT?” That was my reaction to the death of David Keith Lynch. I was at home on the one real day off I had this week between recovering from a very bad cold, teaching, prepping and cleaning up after the vacation that was time spent with my family. I was about to take the laundry out of the washer when I saw the message on Facebook that he had died and all I could think to say (or at least type) was one loud blurt from the heart. And it seems appropriate now that the person who put that notice up happened to be one of my former media students. She seemed to understand his importance not just to me, but to a host of us suburban weirdos who could see what was bubbling under the surface of all that brown and grey.

Silo Season 2's Bird Painting Explained
A bird artwork in Solo's vault is briefly shown in the penultimate episode of Silo season 2, which appears to hint at a number of things from the show's upcoming story beats. Since the first episodes of season 1, Apple TV+'s Silo has made sure that every single aspect and plot point is purposeful. Because of this, it is difficult to resist the notion that Juliette's gaze on a picture of birds in Solo's vault in episode 9 of season 2 of Silo will eventually have a significance in the sci-fi series on Apple TV+.

The End of The Tour (2015). Top Story - January 2025.
I have a confession to make: I was yesterday years old when I discovered David Foster Wallace and his significance as a contemporary American writer. I'll turn 55 in a couple of weeks. I know, it's embarrassing. My only excuse is that I lived half of my life in the Soviet and post-Soviet cultures.

Girl Haunts Boy
Netflix has been really liberal with their content lately. And some of it is actually good. It's all pretty mid to low budget but they do have some gems in the mass of content that they keep putting out. Among them is Girl Haunts Boy, it is an absolutely adorable romantic comedy/buddy film that does a really great job of exploring themes of grief and loneliness.

Timecut
When Timecut was released I remember the internet being very angry about the year 2003 being used for a couple of reasons. The obvious one is that they didn't actually get the aesthetic right and those of us that were there could see the big gaping flaws in the production. The other reason being that we don’t like feeling old and 2003 was not that long ago, so fuck you a little bit.

Between 2010 and 2016, Zellweger took a deliberate hiatus from Hollywood at the height of her career. Her decision wasn’t driven by a lack of opportunities or public scrutiny, but by a profound personal realization: she had grown tired of her own voice.

American Primeval Ending Explained. Content Warning.
The heyday of Netflix Sara, Devin, and Two Moons take a startling detour toward the Golden Coast at the finale of the Western television series American Primeval.
