it just doesn't feel right seeing Jaylen on the other side of the court. you can tell it really hurts him even if he's being unnecessarily petty about it. oh well.

Atletico forwards trolling way too much, you can’t waste chances like that against Barcelona and hope to survive

According to the official Wakaliwood instagram, the actor that played Captain Alex in Who Killed Captain Alex died. Rest in peace to a man who played a very unsung role in action movie history, who helped prove that no matter the hardship, filmmaking can be for everyone.

I've been dying to see this movie. Ala Eddine Slim is such a beguiling filmmaker, way more people need to check out his work. New Yorkers don't miss this!
The next screening for Cinema Arabiyya is AGORA (2024) by Ala Eddine Slim on 11/18! In a remote Tunisian town, people who were previously thought to be missing make a sudden return causing growing tensions within the families, community & local police. nitehawkcinema.com/prospectp…

Not been in Algiers for more than five minutes and already got a bad allergic reaction. It's good to be back.

This post reminded me to write this piece that I’d been putting off for a couple months. On my favorite film discovery of the year and its weird twin, with slight divergences towards the dissolution of the USSR, modern Kyrgyz history, and the fate of KG: sillyilly95.substack.com/p/k…
What’s your favorite new to you movie you’ve seen this year? (2026 releases don’t count)

i love this image from Shinoda's Double Suicide. the beauty, the simplicity, the way it bridges the theatrical and the cinematic.

xG is something like 4-1 at some point you just gotta finish your chances. Really poor game from Kane.
