@metaplexmovies I know how hard it is to ignore this stuff but keep doing your thing. People in this era are consistently cruel and hold others to a standard they don’t hold themselves too.

Oppenheimer is amazing and worth the drive. Come to Columbus next time — we’d love to host you.

Sundance breakout “Passages” received a NC-17 rating from the Motion Picture Association, which writer-director Ira Sachs has called a form of “cultural censorship.”

Reps for MUBI and the film have shared a joint statement in response to the rating: https://t.co/2G8w2gkvje

@metaplexmovies It’s just the methodology. Studios are using comp titles from before the pandemic and it is skewing the forecasts.

If guns made us safer, America would be the safest place in the world.

But the opposite is true. Nowhere else do students, concertgoers and bank patrons get slaughtered on a daily basis.

Because as it turns out, it's all the guns that make us so unsafe.

@Espngreeny These refs are a joke. The entire game is officiated like a 90’s NBA game then they call a nothing foul with 1 second left to hand SDST the win? Embarrassing for the NCAA.

Great list of 2022 films to see from @hyperallergic https://t.co/2SGk6onCor

[Chris Hamel @cshamel19]

@MaddWolf @brandoncliff I absolutely loved this movie.

[Chris Hamel @cshamel19]

Great list from NPR and Justin Chang.

It was a terrific year for movies — but also a dispiriting one, says film critic Justin Chang. Blockbusters brought audiences back to theaters, but romantic comedies and grown-up dramas often struggled. https://t.co/btJWF8jfmU

@YAnunoby He is the absolute worst. I might give up on the NBA.

Next week’s program at Gateway Film Center is drop dead amazing. https://t.co/Am4rdWFwFD

@spartanv33 @GusWatanabe @AaronParnas Do you believe every law and legal precedent is written in the constitution?

[Dave Jamieson @jamieson]

People make a lot of assumptions about what kind of workers carry student debt. Years ago I wrote about an Amazon warehouse temp who died on the job. One detail his family shared that I’ll never forget was how he struggled to dig out of his debt from DeVry https://t.co/wxJRB94PC2
