Weve all showed up to the wrong shift before. Its not like he could rely on his assistant for the right call times if he’s the kind of guy to make family guy cutaway joke-ass movies
That's a Woody Allen-ass looking poster for "Between the Temples."
Which demographic is "Red One" aimed at? It looks too violent for kids, but are adults really going to want to pay to see a movie about Santa Claus getting kidnapped? I know "Bad Santa" was a big theatrical hit, but there was something kind of transgressive about going to see a movie about a sweary, drunk Santa right before Christmas. This just looks stupid. I look forward to the inevitable puff pieces about J.K. Simmons' workout regimen, though.
- Ironically, Red One's the kind of movie I'd happily watch on Amazon while perusing Twitter some sleepy Friday night, much like Jungle Cruise and Red Notice (I did draw the line at Black Adam, despite my long-standing crush on costar Aldis Hodge). But unless a friend really wanted to go, I'd never pay money to see it in theaters. That was the biggest surprise of the trailer.
- Listen, I want to support art by my fellow queers, but there is nothing more tedious and circle jerky to me than stand-up comedians discussing stand-up comedy.
- Both A Real Pain and Between The Temples were Sundance movies I couldn't watch on their digital platform, the firstiest of first-world problems. Instead, I saw a few other things, including the best (Exhibiting Forgiveness, out this fall) and worst (Stress Positions) movies I've seen this year by a mile, which feels very Sundance.
- My Spy was one of those trailers that played before what felt like every movie for six months.... and then its distribution company (STX) went bankrupt, they sold it to Amazon during COVID, and it disappeared. It's forever depressing that Anna Faris never really popped.
- White Bird's also been delayed a bunch of times (it was shot in 2021 and originally slated for fall 2022). Its original subtitle was A Wonder Story. If you've seen Wonder (and if you haven't, it's pretty much the Cher/Eric Stoltz Mask for the 2010s), the trailer for White Bird, with that subtitle, is baffling.
I'm holding out for Faris to eventually get into that Alison Janney track and pick up a career Oscar for a showy dramedy role in about 15 years. Gotta play the long game.
I too have always liked her. Never would’ve pegged Chris Pratt to eclipse her in the fame dept, but it’s a man’s world I guess. She was so good in Observe and Report.
Monday night storms ripped through my area knocking down trees and leaving thousands without power, including myself. I am the bespectacled blue Muppet in the cowel neck sweater.
I like how the rest of hollywood still thought action santa was a good idea while Red One was in development and made “Violent Night” in the interim, which played like one of those bloody SNL sketches made feature length
The queer comedy doc is a bit of “smelling our own farts” but it’s also good.
I genuinely want to know how you justify showing up 8 hours after call time
I felt like I was taking crazy pills reading that. If you're 8 hours late didn't you just miss it?

Woody Allen font is the new Faux Hebrew I guess. C.f. “Fleishman Is in Trouble.”

"Never would've pegged Chris Pratt" yeah right, we all would if given the chance.
