Gus Van Sant turning Columbine into an experience akin to Kubrick’s the Shining is why he’s one of the living legends.
ELEPHANT was released 23 years ago today.
Gus Van Sant’s austere, long-take drama won both the Palme d’Or and Best Director at Cannes, yet its refusal to explain or sensationalize school violence still divides audiences.

underrated joke in You Can See Everything is Billy saying “the prototype will be done in less than a year” and Nathan saying “well, let me know when it’s done” followed by the hard cut to TWO YEARS LATER

It really can’t be overstated how [REDACTED] is the heart of You Can See Everything—in part because she is the *only* character who openly wrestles with her own actions and potential regrets, expresses anger & uncertainty, and admits to lying sometimes. She’s a real human being!

At least with older MCU stuff I could sort of understand why people felt so passionate about defending it but I just do not get it for this movie lmao, what is there to defend here? Everything about it feels so desperate and cheap.
The Russos don’t get enough shit for how abysmal they are at blocking and basic composition.
Look at the state of blockbuster filmmaking lmao

Been 7 years since Sam got the shield and we're still doing the 'oh who's Captain America' gimmick as if Steve isn't even in costume and looks like he just left a motor-bike repair shop

Would be cool if the MCU would stop undercutting Sam's legitimacy as Captain America. Why does he have to keep proving himself? Why is that his sole character trait? Stuff like this is just cowardly. It's like, YOU don't even fully believe it.

My favorite visual gag in You Can See Everything is when Billy’s working inside a fancy looking office building and it cuts further out and it’s a WeWork

The problem with an Alien: Romulus sequel is that sooner or later you run out of Ridley Scott’s ideas.

If David comes back and Ridley is able to finish his trilogy I’ll be so happy, also RAISED BY WOLVES is massively underrated. Very hyped for this.
A new ‘ALIEN’ movie is in the works.
• It will be connected to ‘Prometheus’ and ‘Covenant’
• Aaron Guzikowski (‘Prisoners’, ‘Raised by Wolves’) is writing the script

it’s *wild* to me that Seyfried’s immediate gut critique of Charlie Kirk is that he was “performative when he was with people and another way alone” because the concept of “performance” is so central to the theme of the movie; you literally couldn’t have planned it better

I like Martin McDonagh and I’m sure I’m going to love Wild Horse Nine but my god I am tired of seeing that trailer
