‘Karate Kid: Legends’ is fast, fun, and its NYC vibe feels legit—not like some bullshit backlot. Joshua Jackson steals the show til Jackie Chan & Ralph Macchio tag in. Only issue? Too many good guys. It's the bullies we love to hate that make these movies great, and there's too little screen-time left for them.

Meet your new Harry, Ron, and Hermione. I don’t envy child actors; especially as they step into such big and perfectly/previously cast shoes. But they’ll be overnight stars, so there’s that. Its a Faustian deal, kiddos. https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/harry-potter-hbo-series-casts-harry-ron-hermione-1236410755/

‘Dangerous Animals’ asks, “What if serial killer, but with sharks?” It also asks, “What if Jai Courtney, but movie doesn’t suck?” Both questions should have been addressed long ago — but better late than never. The answer? A fun and gory film that horror fans can really sink their teeth into.

At its best, ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’ is ‘Misery’ for dumb people. At its worst, it’s misery for smart people. Jenna Ortega is serviceable as a Gen Z Annie Wilkes, but self-serious star and co-writer Abel T. Weeknd too often invites unintentional laughs. Barry Keoghan? He just deserves better.

Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning has to be seen on the biggest screen possible, or what’s the point? Like the previous film, it just won’t work on a small screen without super sized adrenaline shots to breakup the blah blah blah exposition. See it in a theater or not at all. And in IMAX? Wow.

Bring Her Back is the most horrific movie I’ve ever seen, and I see a lot of movies. It’s from the Talk to Me guys, but has more in common with Hereditary. It’s like they saw that movie’s most traumatic scene and said, “What if that, but for 2/3 of movie?” Go in blind. Pun intended. You’ll get it later.

When did you last scroll through the contacts in your phone? How many of those names have you not thought about for a decade? How many of them are dead? For me, there are a lot. Happy Monday, folks! Text your friends while you still can; iMessage doesn't support Ouija.

The Brutalist is now on HBO(!!) Max … but if you cared about cinema you would have already seen its 70mm print in IMAX. Ya know what? Just go back to giggling at your TikityToks. You don’t deserve this film.

Final Destination: Bloodlines should make you guilty for enjoying all this Rube Goldberg gore … Or is that feeling ‘satisfaction’? Either way, it’s a bloody fun movie if you think absurd set pieces are enough to justify the cost of a ticket and large popcorn. You sick bastard.

Everything in this world we hold dear is controlled by billionaire arsonists. This is what happens when the guy who gave us Dr. Pimple Popper acquires the greatest brand in prestige entertainment. Fuck. This. Guy. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/digital/max-name-change-hbo-max-upfronts-1236216616/

Novocaine is now on Paramount+. It’s a fun, fast-paced action comedy that’s not for the squeamish. It stars Jack Quaid who is on fire between this and Companion (now on Max and also highly recommended).

‘Friendship’ with Paul Rudd and Tim Robinson of ‘I Think You Should Leave’ is a master class in cringe comedy. See it in a theater to enjoy the awkward chuckles of your fellow humans. It’s a wonderful communal watch.

"Missing Missy" is an iconic troll from an undervalued graphic designer. It's a fun read ... BUT I'm reminded of it because I've spent A LOT of time today trying to get ChatGPT to generate a graphic for me and I started wondering ... is the AI trolling me? Otherwise, it's dumb as fuck. https://27bslash6.com/missy.html

This movie has Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Fassbender, David Hasselhoff, Nazis, and dinosaurs -- but it's been on the shelf for 5 years due to legal issues. A 10-minute sizzle just leaked. 🥋👊💥 ENJOY Kung Fury: The Movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibBIvcNsChg

RIP Bandersnatch. Netflix is killing its last available interactive shows. I’ve never believed in “choose your own adventure” TV/movies, because that usually means it’s just a really bad video game, but this experiment was cool and on-brand for Black Mirror. https://apple.news/AcjarFOgKQK26mUoNXZTihQ

Clown in a Cornfield is a competent slasher that is just self-aware enough to work. When it veers into comedy it reveals the movie it could have been. As someone who grew up in a shitty redneck town that peaked well before I was born, it resonates.

Oh, come on you bunch of nerds. You're definitely sitting on a digital trash heap just like I am. Admit it.

Share a dumb domain name you’ve been squatting on and for how long. I'll start. I've owned gymnuts.com since 2007. I don't even go to the gym.
