Actually a fan of this take, because it forces people to logically conclude that everyone who opposes Mamdani from a direction other than the left is, categorically, a right winger

Every single Republican president in my life has started a war in the Middle East and crashed the economy. Why is ANYONE rightwing, I genuinely don't understand.
How are any young men left wing I genuinely don’t understand

cannot stress enough how much whalefall, both the book and the film, adores whales and wants the audience to adore them, too. if you'd experienced either you would know how ridiculous this take is
Setting aside the offensively stupid premise, there is something about the spirit of this plot — clinging to the monsterization of profoundly intelligent, social creatures that we feared for centuries and massacred in wanton ignorance — that is uniquely corrosive and hateworthy.

The time jump and cut from California beaches with phone calls and tech terminology to Texas with guns and Teslas and cyber trucks feels like a defining 2020s cinema moment

You can see Amanda Seyfried and Christopher Abbott in The Testament of Ann Lee

Frankly, this is how moving the Overton window is supposed to work and why it's imperative for the left to pressure left electeds, despite what DSA rightists/Progs say. If Mamdani becomes "the consensus center" then you've just moved the Dem party leftward. That's the point.

The Academy’s rules for the 99th Oscars clearly state that a film like 'You Can See Everything' is eligible — says THR's Awards Editor. But the Academy’s doc branch has long been resistant to reenactments, denying even best doc feature Oscar nominations to several all-time great docs that ventured into that style. Find out why there is an urge for the filmmakers and A24 to appeal to the full Academy for a best picture nomination: bit.ly/4i4w30d

During the Q&A Duffield said something along the lines that Abrams was stuck in this thing for like 5-7 hours a day, every day, for over a month

You guys don't daydrink with your extended family on Christmas?
There’s a TikTok trend where people are saying the correct order to spend their Christmas Day and some girl just said around 4/5pm her family has a few drinks (if they’re in the mood?!)

Unsurprised, but I gotta hand it to Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin for creating fake footage so convincing it took almost 60 years to officially confirm as fake. That’s talent.
The iconic Bigfoot video from 1967 is officially confirmed to be a hoax after new archival footage was found for an upcoming documentary. (Source: variety.com/2026/film/review…)

so what i’m hearing is digger made history
Tom Cruise’s DIGGER is tracking to drop -95% this weekend, the biggest third-weekend drop in the history of cinema for a movie released in over 3K locations. It’ll play in only 563 theaters, having lost an insane -2,758 theaters from last week.
