Power and conquest - Mekong Review Ferdinand Magellan was a famous explorer, but Diaz makes it clear that his film isn’t some graceful portrait of the man.

I wrote about Lav Diaz's MAGELLAN, a marvelous film, for
The Mekong Review. You can either access the full article through subscribing here, or getting the (gasp) print edition:

It's genuinely an epidemic within critics and festival programmers (Sundance/TIFF in particular) where famous actors turned directors are graded on an INSANE curve.

The Bride(!) reviews by dudes doing that thing where they are all trying desperately to ensure the readers that the movie sucking was *not* because Maggie Gyllenhaal is bad at directing. Sure man πŸ‘

In what Hollywood considers the β€œdumping ground” months for film releases, horror movies have tended to thrive. So, for Fangoria I listed some of the best Jan/Feb horror releases of the 21st century so far:

I feel like there's been less overlap in voting bodies of SAG vs the Academy this decade. Actor still lines up except for last year and 2020, but in Actress only one person has won both since 2017 (Michelle Yeoh)

Every single expat/influencer who comes back from Dubai should be put to work as indentured servants in a mine or sewage plant

I love breakfast spreads in movies where it's like a normal plate of eggs and bacon but then for some reason there's a side plate of no less than 8 pieces of toast.

Olivier Rioux on Florida is fun but also kinda sad man. They gave him a full ride scholarship bc he’s 8ft tall and they just trot him out in garbage time like a circus attraction and the fans have to pretend like he’s not terrible at bball.

Bombing Dubai must be a no-lose situation bc even if you miss striking a U.S. soldier or a pedophile Emirati, you’re guaranteed to at least hit some β€œlifestyle” douche from instagram

I speak for all sensible citizens of the world when I say I stand with IRAN against the child-raping, blood-drinking pedophile ZOG governments of Israel, the United States, India, the UK, France, Germany, Canada, Argentina, and the UAE

No, not really. Only the first 30 min is like that. In typical Aronofsky fashion though he crescendoes it into some Catholic bullshit and then flips it into the corniest ending possible
