Thrilled to close out @cinapse.bsky.social's CINAPES month with my favorite Apes film, Matt Reeves' DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES! Major thanks to the incredible Nathan Flynn, Ed Travis, Austin Vashaw, and Calum Syers for their thoughts on a modern sci-fi classic! cinapse.co/2024/05/two-...

Binging the Planet of the Apes series for the first time for @cinapse.bsky.social, and so far the MVP throughout this series is Kim Hunter as Zira. She's kickass, rightfully champions her credentials as a scientist/psychologist, and always knows how fallible she can be. On Escape now!

Adored the barren beauty of EVIL DOES NOT EXIST. Hamaguchi sets his insightful eye on the ever-brimming tension between Nature and humans–asking how we can preserve/give back to Earth if conservation still retains an element of consumption. Now playing from @sideshow.bsky.social and Janus Films!

this is why the “follow the rules” stuff is so transparently full of shit if they don’t like what you’re doing, they will simply change the rules until you can’t do it anymore

As part of APE-RIL on @cinapse.bsky.social, I'm leading our next Two Cents piece on Peter Jackson's KING KONG! Does it make you want to climb a skyscraper with joy? Or does it deserve to languish in a pit full of creepy crawlies? Let me know if you want to send in 200-400 words by this weekend!

Turned in the first pass at a project I’ve been working pretty damn hard on for the last few months. I’m so excited for y’all to get it, but for now I gotta put my brain back together.

The "Willy's Chocolate Experience" organizers blamed some last-minute difficulties in fulfilling the promises advertised. Given that the AI-generated imagery promised such wondrous items as "exarserdray lollipops, carchy tuns, and a pasadise of sweet teats," I don't blame them.

I'm more Team Pete in this debate–but I was thrilled to see @tasharobinson.bsky.social bring up how Strangers' pivot into a Queer context makes it uncomfortably (if unintentionally) resurrect the "Bury Your Gays" trope. I wrote about this aspect of Strangers here for @cinapse.bsky.social:

It's awesome to see the ending of ALL OF US STRANGERS still provoke fierce debate all these months later. It's an aspect of the film that I feel hasn't been truly reckoned with in a ton of discourse about Haigh's film–and both Tasha and Pete make excellent and necessary points throughout.

This will never not be a pilgrimage. Truly wondrous seeing Magnolia again in 35mm. And the book says, “we may be through with the past, but the past is not through with us.”

One of the key things that unlocks the character of Greg Abbott is that he fought to ban the sort of injury lawsuits that he himself benefitted from, specifically targeting the kinds of lifetime disability annuities that he himself has.

Ohio has basically defacto banned trans healthcare for adults using a similar strategy to why there was only a handful of abortion clinics in the entire Midwest before the Dobbs decision (TRAP laws) cis people please repost this so this info doesn't get stuck in the queer social bubble

Halfway point on 2023: 25 Films! This 10th annual video is currently the shortest and most challenging one yet, but I'm enjoying the creativity imposed by the limitations :)
