Before Potter and Downton most millennials knew Maggie Smith as the elderly Wendy opposite Robin William’s Peter Pan in Spielberg’s Hook. Her early scenes were so strong that everything else in the film seemed to pale by comparison. #RIPMaggieSmith youtu.be/fwgz_87qelw?si=07Lc…
One of the few pieces of original comic art I own is this final group page of Astonishing X-Men, in which Cassaday effortlessly captured the distinct personalities and capped off one of the all-time X-Men comics. #RIPJohnCassaday

#RedOne is peak algorithm filmmaking: Something for everyone, but I can’t think of a single real person who would want to watch it.

In my first-year @ScreenSwin unit students select the weekly screenings from a range of options. This was what they picked in 2023.

Roger Corman was so prolific, inventive and influential that he manages to appear in nearly every Screen Studies unit I teach (this week it’s Teen Movies). I can’t imagine that’ll ever change. #RIPRogerCorman
