I really think retro video games are onto something with their complete disregard for which artefacts of the medium are actually characteristic of which eras. I think we should extend it to other media – like, forget a GBA retroclone with a CRT filter, I want to see a black and white silent film with baked-in VHS tracking errors.

Alvin and the Chipmunks 2. It was my bfs 8th birthday. We went to Mc Donald's and the cinema. Drank coke, got a shit ton of helium balloons. Went to hers and tied them to her 4 year old brother. Thought he might take flight. It was a good day.

what's the first movie you remember seeing in theaters? don't try and be all edgy and cool and say like tetsuo: the iron man. be honest.

Go!!

I love practical effects as much as the next nerd, but sometimes I watch a making-of feature about a movie from the 1980s that's like "this rig could only be operated by a puppeteer with congenital dwarfism standing on their head, and they had to do each scene in one take because if they wore it for more than 25 minutes they had to call an ambulance", and I think, you know, maybe CGI has its place after all.

Handshake meme where the hands are "film and television adaptations of popular video games" and "the Star Wars expanded universe" and the meeting point is "weaving a tale of tragedy about a character named Bingbong".

You haven’t fallen down an actor rabbit hole until you’ve watched one of their movies in 8 or 9 parts on YouTube in 360p. Alan Rickman the man that you were.

Movie marathon idea: Favorite Actor Endurance Course. Watch all of an actor’s movies in order from best to worst Rotten Tomatoes score, find out how terrible of a movie you’re willing to watch if they’re in it.

I firmly believe that some stories can never be translated into a different medium and that's okay

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

My local theatre had that “Nosferatu | Flow | Babygirl”
