I am informed that #SmashingMachine opens in the UK before LFF even starts, so this definitely isn't the Surprise Film! 🤣

#DailyStream: if you can't get to the multiplex this weekend, get that #Creed3 feeling with Ryan Coogler’s 2015 #Creed. It's a satisfying new chapter in Rocky’s tale — one that feels natural and organic, not forced by the dictates of movie franchises. @hbomax US, @primevideouk

#DailyStream: are you ready for some football? For its 20th anniv, celebrate #BendItLikeBeckham. It’s sporting! It’s crosscultural! It’s funny, sweet, heartwarming. Parminder Nagra is delightful... and should have been a big star afterward. @DisneyPlus US, @lionsgateplusuk.

#DailyStream: my most-romantic-movie-ever. On Valentine’s Day I wonder why cannot I not have a tragic ghostly lover, like Juliet Stevenson has in Alan Rickman in 1990’s #TrulyMadlyDeeply. Dead boyfriends for the win. Streaming in UK but not in US, which is criminal, so sorry.

#ParisMemories (aka #RevoirParis) is a deeply humane, delicately constructed journey through trauma and recovery that cuts like a knife and soothes like a hug, somehow, miraculously, managing both bundles of feeling at the same time. My review: https://www.flickfilosopher.com/2023/08/paris-memories-revoir-paris-movie-review-healing-after-horror.html [cinemas+VOD US; cinemas UK]

O. M. G. Back in the day, like 30+ years ago, #StarTrekTNG had an open submission policy, and I submitted a spec script revolving around #FederationDay -- an idea that I'm pretty sure had not been mentioned before -- and featuring a journalist visiting the Enterprise D. /1

It's Sunday on a UK bank-holiday weekend. So tomorrow shouldn't feel threatening.
But because I am inescapably #EasternStandardTribe, I am feeling Monday morning looming. I am panicking that I've done nothing "productive" today.
Late-stage capitalism can go fuck itself.

#LoadedQuestion: What bit of pop culture (movies, TV, books, comics, games, whatever) best captures the feeling of being disconnected with the larger world? (Cory Doctorow’s 2004 novel #EasternStandardTribe speaks to me, as an American expat.)

#DailyStream: I'm back! And just as the global-warming shit is hitting the fan. Rewatching 2006's #AnInconvenientTruth now is a reminder of our self-destructive inertia in the face of #ClimateCatastrophe; the film feels more urgent than ever. @Kanopy US, @ParamountPlusUK

#DailyStream: a Pedro Pascal flick you’ve maybe never seen. The goofy good fun of #TheGreatWall -- sorta Lord of the Rings meets Aliens via Zhang Yimou -- is leaving @NetflixUK next week. And did I mention Pedro Pascal is in it? Also on @PrimeVideo @primevideouk.

#Nightbitch is in cinemas on both sides of the Atlantic now. #AmyAdams is a goddess, as always, but I wish the film leaned more into the rage of the novel, and less into gentle humor. My review: https://www.flickfilosopher.com/2024/12/nightbitch-movie-review-live-bark-love.html

#Nightbitch replaces the novel’s rage with gentle comedy, biting its tongue and undercutting its protagonist. Still, mundane truths about women’s realities that rarely get public airings are on welcome display. My 🟡 review: https://www.flickfilosopher.com/2024/12/nightbitch-movie-review-live-bark-love.html. In US/UK cinemas Friday.

If you're despairing over the cruddy, ugly mess that is #RedOne, I invite you to recall that The Rock has starred in so many shitty family fantasies. *cough* Jumanji *cough* I haven't gotten about 2010's #ToothFairy, and now you have to share the horror: https://www.flickfilosopher.com/2010/01/tooth-fairy-review.html 📽️
