Can't thank Keith Gill aka 'Roaring Kitty' enough. Thank you for changing my life.

It's definitely not a great film. You kinda feel that they quickly put all this together, before some other studio beat them to it. Got some A-list actors on board, bought an unfinished book by a famous author, quickly wrote a script, and bam!
We have a movie folks!
But for guys like me, who went through all this 'GameStop - AMC squeeze' saga in real-time,…

Barbie marketing will be taught in B-schools from now onwards.
That Snyder Cut dig got me real bad!
😂

I wasn't sure before, but it's safe to say, believe the hype. Gerwig and Baumbach have written a brilliant comedy in 'Barbie', that takes on topic that are usually considered a bit too difficult to discuss, but what they managed to achieve with their amazing writing was to make those topics approachable. Definitely won't be surprised if they land a writing…

Sinners

★★★★ Liked Rewatched

Yes, third time’s the holy charm and this time... in GLORIOUS 70MM IMAX.
My eyeballs have ascended. Sinners is a cinematic baptism—part fever dream, part art museum, part emotional slap in the face. It’s one of the most beautiful things you’ll witness this year, and I say that as someone who once cried at a Doritos commercial.
Do not miss this visual confessional. Your soul (and your retinas) will thank you.

A Witty, Wrenching Coming-of-Age That Proves Laughter and Grief Can Coexist

Every year, there’s that one film that blindsides you. At Sundance 2025, Sorry, Baby was that film. The kind of quietly revelatory, emotionally complex, and tonally daring project that reminds you why you brave the lines and shuffle between screenings in the cold. An astonishing and idiosyncratic debut from writer-director-star Eva Victor, Sorry, Baby isn’t just a great first film — it’s the confident announcement of a singular new…

Update#1:
Universal - Blumhouse Crew Screening

I know I'm not supposed to talk about the movie right now, but I'm going to take it upon myself to save some lives.
What was the purpose behind making a campier, wayyyyyy more boring and dull version of an already existing below average movie from the 80's!?
We all know this ain't coming out in theaters like this, instead will show up suddenly one day on Amazon Prime as part of the Blumhouse…

Funny, raunchy and heartfelt.

It's so good to see Lawrence performing at her absolute peak, and having a ball at it!
Both Jennifer Lawrence and Andrew are amazing in their respective roles. All the ing cast were fantastic as well, especially Scott MacArthur, Natalie Morales, Matthew Broderick and Laura Benanti, as Andrew's rich and possessive helicopter parents.

Been a fan of Gene Stupnitsky & Lee Eisenberg's writing ever since 'The Office' days, became a bigger fan of their work after…
