Basically the plot of Crash (1996)


Well the airforce did build a PS3 supercomputer


Spider-Man: Brand New Day 3/5 - After the last movie brought in all of the people associated with Spider-Man I knew this was going to have to tone everything down and it did. It’s a good Spider-Man movie with an interesting villain, better than most of the MCU stuff right now
Ice Cream Man (2026) 1.5/5 - It’s in the splatter horror genre like Terrifier which I’ve found to be disappointing in general. Usually there’s an emphasis on over the top gore but it often comes around to being cartoonish because it’s so unrealistic and that’s the case here. Add in AI scenes, child sexualization, and vague racism and there’s not much redeemable here
The Hobbit (1977) 2.5/5 - Watched this in honor of the new magic set. It’s goofy as hell, but has a lot of hand drawn charm. It’s been a long time since I read The Hobbit but if you told me all the songs in the movie were from the book I’d believe it. The Gollum scene drags on for far too long, but overall I appreciate it as being pretty faithful, if not abridged
Heat 4/5 - My first time seeing this and it was pretty good. I think an hour of build-up and character building is on the long side for what the movie needed, and the heist itself was a little simplistic for my tastes. Overall still very well executed
SOULM8TE 2.5/5 - If you’re going to rip off movies like Companion and Ex Machina you gotta do something to differentiate yourself, and the opportunity was right there considering this is (supposedly) in the M3GAN universe. They don’t really bother taking advantage of the crossover and while there are some interesting kills and funny moments, overall they don’t really capitalize on the premise
The Dink 4/5 - What if we made Challengers palatable for Republicans? I jest, it’s funny, pretty self aware, and manages just enough swerves to keep you engaged. I appreciated that the main character was a fucking moron and that they never redeem that. He is just so dumb. Also John McEnroe is fucking hilarious in every movie he’s in


They had a pretty limited musical run (and a 1 season IFC show) but Garfunkel and Oates had some funny songs


I was playing video games with a friend while listening to music and said out loud “is this a Tom Jones cover of Burning Down the House?” and her immediate impression of the song was dead on even though she’d never heard it before


Start off confusing them with a cacophony of sound, followed by high energy, into Tom Jones shouting. Should be pretty hard to sleep through all of that
Dropout is one I have no issues paying for too
My work was matching donations at one point and Wikipedia was an option so I donated $50 + $50 of corpo money to Wikipedia at one point. They’ve never stopped asking me for more
Elijah Wood is in Back to the Future 2 as one of the children playing an arcade game at the throwback cafe


This one sees a lot of use lately (Fight Club): 
A good Hell Yeah! is frequently warranted (Harley Quinn): 
Of course surprised Pikachu is a classic but recently I like this remix: 
And this is for when people invite me to make questionable decisions (Rick & Morty): 


According to his website there are 56 movies based on his stories


Additional fun fact, he has had 4 years where he had at least 4 movies he did the original story for: 2025, 2019, 2017, and 1990


I really liked The Long Walk, it did a good job of sticking with me and I’ve come back to it a few times. I think it was probably the best of the 4 movies King had last year, but I liked Life of Chuck more


Seven Samurai 3.5/5 - Look, I know that sounds crazy. The last hour of this really is incredible and I’m not opposed to a long or old movie. However before the intermission there’s a lot of retreading ground and hammering the premise into you. It doesn’t help I found several of the samurai annoying along with the constant whining of the villagers
There Will be Blood 4/5 - This is one of the most American movies I’ve ever seen. Daniel almost immediately identifies Eli as being just as ruthless and craven as he is. They are constantly trying to exploit the other at the expense of everyone around them while both ultimately end up miserable and alone
Tour de Pharmacy 4.5/5 - Short, hilarious, and everyone is totally fine taking the piss out of bicycling. The old/young versions being separate actors has some very funny payoffs
A Few Good Men 4/5 - Sorkin is at his best when he’s writing and not writing/directing which is admittedly a pretty lukewarm take. I like the build up to give the court case the punch it needs to close the movie. I would personally move the “code red” scene to the beginning of the movie, it feels out of place as an unlabeled flashback
M3GAN 3.5/5 - It’s good horror/comedy and does a better job at modernizing Child’s Play than Child’s Play does. I’m excited to see what SOULM8TE does in a few days
The Matrix Revolutions 4/5 - I would love to sit down and really talk about this with someone. Neo descending to hell to confront the Merovingian (who may be a previous iteration of The One), the dual filming of both movies, where the messiah allegory stops/ends, the INCREDIBLE highway fight scene. There’s so much that’s just so interesting going into this it’s just a shame Reloaded and later Resurrections don’t quite land
One Night Only 3/5 - Even ignoring the batshit premise of the film it still is held together by insane coincidences that it doesn’t really have the narrative strength to justify. It is funny for most of it, but it’s also surprisingly chaste for being an R rated movie about every single person in the country fucking for 12 hours. I think I saw a single woman’s nipple in the whole thing and neither of the main characters gets seriously nude in the entire thing


Seconding Lumines. One of the few puzzles games that captures the feel of Tetris while still being it’s own thing


I’ll take a cool homage poster over the generic floating heads or the old Orange/Blue gradient


Being incable of winning a primary hasn’t stopped the last 3 Democrat nominees from being the candidate


I was really surprised industry darling Brendan Fraser didn’t get nominated for this. His performance was very good
