I'm a street-walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm. Also, I produce television.

Taylor Swift has trapped all of the NYPD underneath the sewers of Madison Square Garden and detonated all of the bridges leading out of Manhattan. The fire rises.

The Wizard of Oz turns 87 this year, and back in 1998, critic Rick Polito wrote what might be the greatest one-line TV listing ever for TCM.

Depressing to come on here & see pro writers/journalists talk about using AI to "streamline" the process of writing. Really shows how many players have no love for the game. The process is the whole point! Trying to figure it out, & then figuring it out, is why you write!

I am being downgraded to a regional treasure. I appreciate privacy during this difficult time.

Scrolling through Apple TV+ is so funny, because every time you come upon something like an entire new series directed by Alfonso Cuaron and starring Cate Blanchett that you had no idea even existed, because Apple does zero marketing for its channel.

I keep seeing people ask how millennials are the only people who can see through the online bullsht. And I’ll tell you how. Bc we didn’t always have the internet but once we did, every single school paper needed 10 reliable website sources and none could be Wikipedia or a dot com

RIP Steve Albini. A huge loss.

Guys, that article getting released during perhaps the biggest rally day of solidarity isn’t a coincidence.

Ignore it. Don’t give it any engagement.

Post about the rally. The solidarity. Flood the screens with us winning and let their piece of distraction whimper away.

Netflix limits theaters & weeks so a film can play enough in theaters to qualify for oscars, but slightly less than what contractually would make it a “theatrical release” by union rules

This allows them to avoid paying actors writers & directors higher theatrical residual rates

The fact that this is the Earthquake attraction at Universal and journalists are asking this account if they can feature it, is giving me life.

Pacino doing the great acting when Christopher Plummer sider with corporate. The hollow look when your faith in someone dies.

The statement Eastman made shld be front page everywhere and reporters are remiss if they don't ask all Trump/coup supporters to respond. Eastman justifies the coup/insurrection on the basis of the right to revolution outlined in the Declaration of Independence.

The studios must be desperate if they’re turning their backs on the only thing they truly believe in (Summer Fridays)

[Mark Ruffalo @MarkRuffalo]

Dear @POTUS, @TheJusticeDept, and @FCC. By eliminating the Paramount Decrees, you have made way for the strikes and shutdown of our industry. That was an antiquated antitrust law that held back studios and streamers from forming monopolies. They are now crushing labor because there is no competition—there is no recourse to their demands. Please reinstate or better your antitrust laws for the entertainment industry.

There is no way that @NoLabelsOrg can get to 270 electoral votes. That means they will be a spoiler. A spoiler in favor of Donald Trump. #NoLabelsElectsTrump

Yep. They want to get writers to turn on each other and bust the WGA up? WE have a better chance of getting the companies to turn on each other and busting the AMPTP up!

On this day in Amity history an unfortunate incident occurred involving a bather.

A boy refused to listen to his mother despite a stern warning about his pruned fingers (See picture below)

Somehow I caught grief for his misbehavior and Mrs Kintner STILL gives me nasty looks!
