Just when i thought AI could take over the poster industry, i see (in a kids animated movie no less) a donkey with sideburns brandishing a Danelectro-style guitar but with off-brand singlecoils to probably evade copyright stuff. Anyway, whatre yalls ADHD symptoms?

My daughter loved those Descendant movies. When I saw the poster here, I said out loud, "Oh, they did make another Descendants movie!"

Gawd, my life has not turned out well. I'm gonna go walk straight into a deep pond now.

- I bailed on Transformers after the second Bay one, and jumped back in for Bumblebee, which everyone said was good (it was fine) and Rise Of The Beasts (which I saw solely because my husband was a Beast Wars child). The stinger at the end of Beasts, which ties it into another Hasbro franchise, is the closest I've come to shouting "oh, fuck off" in a theater. Husband hated that it was a bait and switch - it's still centered on Optimus Prime and the same fucking Transformers as the last seven movies. No thanks to any more. I close by mentioning that I attended a Broadway play with Brian Tyree Henry sitting ten rows in front of me, and he is very handsome.

- Re: Glen Powell/gay porn face - is this the crowd for a Sean Cody reference? Maybe? No? Well, just know that Glen Powell looks like someone who would have been a model on that mid-00s gay porn website.

- Something something Better Than Ezra joke. My brain's not firing today.

Are they trying to Sam Worthington Glen Powell on us?

"No matter how Glen Powell dresses, he always looks like a gay porn star to me. Is that projecting? Maybe."

What does "projecting" mean here Vince? You got a second career we don't know about?

Cheech Marin better show up in that pot horror movie looking for some Trim.

Speaking of AI, that hand in the Trim Season poster looks uncanny to me. I'd examine closer but I can't pinch-and-zoom for some reason.

Which leads to another topic, how come I can't pinch-and-zoom on this site? Is it my phone? I hate when they do that and I don't understand why it's even a thing.

Hit Man is giving off a Val Kilmer's The Saint meets Argyll vibe.

Something in the Water is clearly the woman trying to dispel her fart bubbles. Sharks are attracted to that by the way.

I am kinda glad to see they went with the weird 70s lookin' beach boys and not the pretend surfer look.
