Having now seen #Sinners twice, I feel confident in calling it genuinely brilliant. One of the best horror films I've seen in a good few years, and legitimately sublime as a celebration of art, of culture, of life itself.

Incredibly honoured to have been able to present at #Terrifier2025 today as my first ever academic conference! Hopefully the first of many to come! #terrifierconference #terrifier

[Ethan Jones @FilmScribeUK]

Still both terrifying and incredibly exciting that I’ll be presenting at this as my first ever academic conference!

Well, I’ll be damned 🤡 🧑‍🎓 https://t.co/w2qzxYJZ6p

As a massive fan of the game, #AMinecraftMovie hurt me. Genuinely loathsome in a way few films I've ever seen are, I think to say I hated it would be a genuine understatement.

Continuing on with my pledge to write more about mental health and art, I wrote an essay about how the experience of playing board games with friends helps (me) deal with depression. #BloodOntheClocktower #BoardGames

As an addendum to this, I have also written the first essay as part of my pledge to write more openly about mental health and art, talking about Inside Out (2015) and the validity of feeling sad.

This is an essay that I've wanted to write for a long time, and I finally bit the bullet to finally do it.

Got a chance to watch #Mickey17 yesterday. Not entirely convinced if its a "Great" movie, but I sure as hell think it's a very entertaining one.

Holy shit #Anora winning best editing is so fucking cool

Tonight is Oscar night and as always, I have a LOT of thoughts, predictions, and grievances. Read about them all here! #Oscars #Oscars2025

And as a bit of fun, I also decided to rank/review every other film I saw this year in 10 Words or Less!

The start of this year has been very busy, but I have finally had time to write up, edit, and publish my list for the best films of 2024!

Nickel Boys is un-fucking-real. One of the purest explications of how unique cinema is as an art-form that I’ve ever seen.

[Ethan Jones @FilmScribeUK]

Now that #2025 is just on the horizon, I wanted to look forward at all the new films next year that I'm excited for.

#HappyNewYear Everyone!

If you'd told me at the start of the year that I would unapologetically love #SonicMovie3, I might have laughed in your face. But 2024 continues to surprise me at every turn, and I must say: I really, REALLY liked #SonicMovie3!

I’m genuinely kinda baffled by the praise #Blitz is getting because I honestly thought it was just … awful. Scattershot, manipulative, contrived, aimless, pointless. Even the production design and aesthetic of it just felt too clean and polished and glitzy. Really not a fan.

[Ethan Jones @FilmScribeUK]

The fuck is wrong with the USA

[Ethan Jones @FilmScribeUK]

I just cried so damn much in #TheWildRobot

[Ethan Jones @FilmScribeUK]

Horror fans have been so spoiled for bright, exciting, new voices and filmmakers the past few years. Parker Finn’s really fucking got it with #Smile2

(also lukas gage is damn terrifying in this. just this GIF freaks me out.)

1. All of Us Strangers
2. The Taste of Things
3. Monster
4. KOTFM
5. M:I Dead Reckoning
6. Zone of Interest
7. Past Lives
8. The Holdovers
