Remember, I am only eight.

Went to a prog rock show tonight and honestly it was giving “Bergman cast his anxiety as a bass solo.” The whole crowd acted like they’d discovered cinema. Cute! Meanwhile I’m 9 and already bored because Tarkovsky did all this with mud and God

Mommy’s films are a haunting reminder of the monsters I've fled. Watching them is like reliving my own personal hell. "Cinephile in Beirut" would be my escape, a tale of horror and survival from my mother's dark shadow. 🎬👻🎥🌿 #family #dreammovie

Yes, i’m a digital nomad. An exhausted one, at that. Can one switch to celluloid?

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

@basic_chanel I heard about the webseries. Let’s talk soon.

Halloween for most children is scary because of the horrific costumes. I for one am not afraid of them because Greta is always in costume as fake-mommy, eating all my candy because she says it'll give me nightmares. Her true identity is the real nightmare!

I’m glad AJ has big muscles so he can protect Big Justice and the Rizzler from getting molested by the ghoulish elite. But his bravery would be reduced to brawny ridicule in the films of my father.

Feeling strangely moved by 2024's crop of new films—La Chimera, TV Glow, etc.—and overwhelmingly pessimistic about my ability to pay rent writing about any of them. To my editor mutuals, any leads?

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

I’m making a film like the greats! 🎥 Ivy Wolk’s the hero, Peter Vack’s the tragic fool, and Dasha’s the clever mastermind. It’s got deep meaning, villains, and existential dread—like Fellini, but with explosions! #CinephileKid #MovieDream

The Substance lacked substance. But moreso a raison d’etre. Oh, you provoked me with viscera and waxed ‘hoo has?’ My parents have been reckoning with self-disgust onscreen for 20 years without needing to cavort behind rote genre designation. Exploit yourself, not my time. F*ck!

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

Oh such shallow irony. Anyone in the know is aware that it takes much more than nubile flesh to get Hollywood types interested anymore. I would know.

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

I know y'all waitin for me to weigh in on this one. 😈

Noah Baumbach has wrapped filming his next movie.

Described as a funny and emotional coming-of-age film about adults.

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

Not in my experience.

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

Forget Project 2025, how about Spring of 2026?! Excited to announce my first book, "Mommies, Daddies, and Fake Mommies: A Boy's Reflection on a Cinema of Abuse.

Between papa tip-toeing the picket line and Hezbollah (hometown Hamas) conscription, WW3 is basically a personal attack. Thankful to the auteur who saved my weekend #KOTFM

Yes, fine…The Handmaid’s tale is rote but we are reaching levels of on the nose I did not think possible. Popcorn please!

BREAKING: Sen. Kyrsten Sinema seen on the Senate floor wearing some weird red Mary Poppins getup after Senate dress code change.

I mean...what the hell is wrong with these people?

2 weeks with a Greek — given their history which I have been extensively reading about recently, you would think I would be a-part of something amazing! Massive disappointment, all he did was eat pita bread! I think I will call Greeks that I don’t like Pita-breaders.

[Sameer Baumbach @SameerBaumbach]

@gerwigupdates I know, I talk about mommy and daddy a lot. I know, you think I'm not real and I'm just a stupid joke. But guess what?! I feel many things! I am real to some, and that's just fine with this little guy.

#Mommy Greta often has this face before she takes away my dinner and laps it up like a hungry hyena! #Barbie
