Definitely a capital-F, Capital-D Fashion Decision.
Brendan Fraser played a whale?
Totally deserved. Who could have foretold this when he made those 58 horrible movies back in the 90s/00s
The constant Whale and nautical references kinda didn’t go over well. Happy for him tho!
Nothing wrong with the Yeoh pick but Cate Blanchett is the performance we are talking about in a decade.
Miss World Malaysia!!!!

I am fascinated to see the Indiana Jones film coming out this summer just to get a sense of how good CGI has gotten because that man is a walking corpse.
He's actually good on that Apple series with Jason Segel - Shrinking.

Coincidentally, I have watched all eight eps of that since posting this because the mention of him made me remember it existed.

Starting that tomorrow night, along with the new season of Ted Lasso.

He'll never be in a better show than Freaks and Geeks though.
It is not as good as Freaks and Geeks but it’s still pretty good.
Yeah.  Freaks and Geeks is a show I can watch over and over again.  For some reason I also rewatch Forgetting Sarah Marshall over and over  as well.

My Googling from yesterday did reveal — just in case anyone else was similarly confused — that he does not have Parkinson’s in real life for the record.

Yes, he’s taking a job away from an actor who actually has Parkinson’s. Or as Space would refer to it: he’s performing in Chronic Disease Blackface.

Why do people like the Everything movie so much?
It feels very new. It’s idiosyncratic and made by a younger generation of filmmakers and obvious means a lot to the LGBT and Asian communities. It is impressive from an acting, writing, visual and sound effect standpoint. It checks a lot of boxes.

It was not my favorite film of the year (that would be Tár of the nominees and Close out of all films), but I thought it quite good. I will say it’s rise to winning all these awards seems organic and genuinely reflecting that subset of people who have real passion for it, unlike last year’s CODA campaign which was an abomination.


I tried watching it, twice. Painfulx2.

you've got company
