Can we get these two to record a feature long commentary together on the Odyssey 4K disc?
Here is my interview with Christopher Nolan: are you a bard for a civilization at dusk?

After a great lead role in Tuner and now many praising his work in Tony, I’m fairly convinced this guy would crush as the next Bond.

Next year’s below the line categories at the Oscar’s are shaping up to be a battle to the death if Dune Part Three can deliver even half of what’s been achieved here with The Odyssey.

Up until yesterday PTA had zero Oscars from 14 total nominations. He now has three. All is right in the world. #oscars

We're still over a MONTH(!?) away from #TheOscars. When will the Academy move with the times and realise the current awards season model is needlessly prolonged, outdated and benefits no one. Just move the date forward 3 or 4 weeks, who says no?

Does Todd Woodbridge ever sleep? Dude is everywhere. Like the Channel 9 version of Pedro Pascal. #WinterOlympics

Another week, another brilliantly depraved episode of #industryHBO. True maximalist television that pulls no punches.

There is nothing like #industryHBO on TV. What a weird, thrilling, fucked up episode that was.

As always the song choices on #IndustryHBO and impeccable. Starting from the jump with a mega-mix of New Order's 'True Faith', then into 'Firestater' by Prodigy before taking things down a notch with Beach House's 'Space Song' was one hell of a way to open the new season. 🔥

if you’d told me 10 years ago that PTA, Park Chan-wook, Josh Safdie/Ronald Bronstein, Jafar Panahi, Ryan Coogler, and Chloé Zhao would all be nominated for major Golden Globes in 2025 I would’ve said “sounds like the future of movies is awesome please don’t spoil anything else.”

Today, Netflix announced our acquisition of Warner Bros. Together, we’ll define the next century of storytelling, creating an extraordinary entertainment offering for audiences everywhere. about.netflix.com/en/news/ne…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
In February 2026, Paramount offered a higher sum of money than Netflix offered to acquire Warner Bros, but Netflix refused to increase its offer. Because of this, Netflix will not acquire Warner Bros. reuters.com/legal/transact…

Everyone acting like this is a new take from Tarantino, he's been picking on Paul Dano as far back as 2009, when he programmed a season of films on SKY TV.

It’s hilarious how much this thing has blown up. It’s like the film version of the Drake-Kendrick beef, except we don’t need a dis track to tell us how bad QT’s take is.

People talk about legendary collaborations like Newman and Redford or Deniro and Scorsese. But all I want in this world is for Tim Robinson and Nathan Fielder to make something together. Only then will we reach the cultural zenith of cringe comedy. #TheChairCompany #TheRehearsal

This new Scorsese docuseries is pure cinematic crack. Getting new insights into the origins of the great man's work adds a whole new layer to what was already a legendary career. Highly recommended. #MrScorsese #AppleTV
