James Gunn's new "Superman" film debuts next week. "While the likes of Batman and Wolverine are popular because they break the rules, Superman has to be a law-abiding, upstanding all-American Mr. Nice Guy," Nicholas Barber writes. But that hasn't always been the case for Man of Steel. Read more from @BBCNews:
Someone just reminded me that as we are now in 2026, we are in the future the iconic, 1920s classic Metropolis was set in.
Meanwhile the far-future world of the original Blade Runner is now seven years in our past, and the future of Space 1999 was the last century! A funny thing, time...

“A man ready, willing and able to walk bravely into familiar genre territory and then ingeniously rearrange everything that makes it familiar, Scotsman Alan Sharp proved himself an astute chronicler of America’s dark heart, and captured it with a stunningly honed outsider’s eye.”

Cold? Bored? Scrolled long past your doom threshold? How about… a movie?
finished watching Nosferatu 🌕🌑🌑🌑🌑
Maybe, if I cared about any of the characters, I could appreciate everything this movie is excellent at. But I didn't and I couldn't.
Or maybe not, maybe I didn't care because I'm too tired of remakes and new takes and retellings and the same thing under another perspective or whatever excuse producers use this week to hide their fear of not making their ROI.
Fuck you, suits, I watched this for Eggers and Skarsgård, because I like them, because they're current, there was no need to squeeze the past yet again.
Minus too many stars because you're cowards.

“Not your typical social issue film, this documentary utilizes a touch of humor & a wide diversity of perspectives to call upon people to stand up for their neighbors. In a time when xenophobia & authoritarianism are on the rise, the power of collective action here is a global rallying cry”
EVERYBODY TO KENMURE STREET wins the World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award for Civil Resistance at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival

A new documentary at Sundance Film Festival shows a community coming together to stop immigration officials snatching their neighbors. But it wasn't shot in Minneapolis or Chicago. "Everybody To Kenmure Street" tells the story of a "dawn raid" in Pollokshields, Glasgow, in May 2021, where Home Office agents attempted to detain two Indian Sikhs who had been in the country for a decade. Hundreds of members of the community surrounded the vehicle for hours, after which the two men were released. Here's more from @AVClub.

Here is a rant about why I not watching the oscars:
The Oscars are a popularity contest. The preferred oscar winner is slightly above average artsy junk. For years that never winning an oscar is what save Scorsese from mediocrity, but as he got older the quality of his work declined enough to win an oscar.
The most interesting movies rarely wins most of the time they are not even nominated. 1/*

New Projector Short! Did anyone really ask for The Purge, but hairier? Well, you've got it with Werewolves, even getting Frank Grillo to fight his way across the city. Sounds like prime B-movie schlock, but I found this obnoxious and exhausting rather than fun. #film https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZAxJ_OvSLE
