    I’d really like to watch a film about someone who lives in a big American city and goes back to visit their parents at their small town childhood home for Christmas, and then falls in love with someone who, at the start of the film, they didn’t even like. Shame there’s just no films like that.

    Tough weekend for David Zaslav. Shame Warner Bros. can't just pull a hit Memorial Day movie out of a box somewhere, like some family-friendly John Cena comedy about Wile. E. Coyote or something, I'm just spitballing here.

    Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender is a gorgeous, positively breathtaking achievement of animation. I am sincerely blown away by the sheer amount of work that went into every frame. The action, the character acting, the posing, the choreography. ❤️ Shame its story is "anime original movie" material.

    It's true: JUROR #2 is a rock-solid good old-fashioned movie, and it is insane that the studio treated it like an unpleasant obligation instead of a new movie from one of their most trusted filmmakers. Shame on them.

    Rewatched 'Tremors' with my kid. I've said it before, but that film is magnificent and an absolute fucking masterclass in foreshadowing. Deeply satisfying, not a second wasted. Shame it gets dismissed as a 'monster movie' because it is a solid Top 5 film of all time. Perfection.

    Tonight’s film, Verity. Kind of a bummer. I was really engaged with it until a twist ending that’s just so stupid it drags the whole thing down. Shame, especially because I really like Dakota Johnson and pine for the day that she gets to be in a good movie for once. Incredibly interesting actress.

    If I have one solitary complaint about this movie, it’s that when the hillbilly son gets beheaded while his mom is cooking stew in a big stewpot next to a window, Jason does not throw his head directly into the pot. A real missed opportunity and frankly I’m disappointed in the filmmakers. Shame!

    Shame its taken so long for most to finally catch up. Perhaps they can fill the absence of cinema releases by catching up on the Glazers or Mondelez whove been torching their leveraged empires down around them for two decades now. Should be an ideal replacement for a good horror film, right?

    While it doesn’t reach the same heights, Digger is this year’s Eddington. Shame that all of the marketing for the film makes it look like a Don’t Look Up clone when it has nothing but contempt for that satire. Riz Ahmed is a serious standout. Both the lion and the gazelle are evil for being alive.

    Perhaps I’m just desensitised to sex, and stories about sex, but for the most part the regular sight of a naked Michael Fassbender shagging, showering and/or wanking did nothing for me. His “Brandon” is a New York office worker who is obsessed about sex and who works in a team of permanently horny men led by his married but odiouly indiscreet boss “Fisher” (James Badge Dale) who also has a lot in common with a rabbit. “Brandon” has no problem attracting women, or paying for their services,…

    Has a good reputation among critics and film-buffs, but I thought this was duller than dullsville on a dull tuesday. Fassbender has got to be one of the most overrated actors in recent times. He's got a distinctive look and his eyes pierces through the screen I'll give him that. And a well-sized johnson (as proven on numorous ocassions here) but other than that he's fairly mediocre.
