It’s done. The Disney Renaissance season of INK & PAINT is finally written. Ten films. Eleven episodes. 487 pages. Three years of work. You bet I fuckin’ cried when I finished it.

David Lynch might have left our world, but we’re still living in his.

A tragedy that Sayombhu Mukdeeprom shot the fuck out of four films this year and wasn’t nominated for any of them by his peers

The fact there is no sign of a theatrical release of SING SING or NICKEL BOYS in Australia has gone from deeply frustrating to suspiciously conspicuous.

WALLACE & GROMIT - VENGEANCE MOST FOWL: Yet another slam-dunk for Aardman’s crown jewel. The story cracks with wit, the animation is sublime and the pastiche of noir cinema is, as always, pitch perfect. I laughed myself silly and gasped with delight. Give it the Oscar.

Also, I cannot tell you how much I love Gromit. I adore Gromit. I would die for Gromit. I want nothing but safety and happiness for Gromit.

BETTER MAN: Um… this fuckin’ RULES. Wonderfully imaginative, surprisingly moving, endlessly electrifying. The central conceit frees it from having to be conventional, an opportunity it fully embraces. There were moments I almost applauded. The unexpected surprise of the year.
