Remember the Alien vs. Predator: Requiem DVD and Blu-ray? Many complained, "You can't see shit." Turns out, both versions are incredibly dark. A 4K transfer could change everything. #AVP #MovieReview

In 2013, amidst life changes, a search for distraction led to discovering podcasts. After cycling through poorly produced shows, the fourth one, 'Now Playing', was a revelation. 13 years later, it remains eagerly awaited every Tuesday and Friday. #PodcastDiscovery #NowPlaying

Stephen King's take on 'The Shining' miniseries? The ghosts looked like cheap Halloween costumes, not undead spirits. As Arnie put it, 'If you're gonna have a drink with some ghosts, don't you want good-looking ghosts?' #TheShining #StephenKing #MovieReview

Can someone fill me in on the background of this?

I know Smith did a Netflix He-Man cartoon. But did he cry about?

And lying about being a He-Man fan? I’m really missing something.

[Lord Brian Urso, Lead Guitarist of Gideons Mob @TheMobRules73]

Does anyone know if KEVIN SMITH saw Masters of the UNiverse? And if he did, did He make a video of him CRYING about it? OR Lie again on video that he "always loved he-man i would watch it after school" ?

Because thats the kiss of death to ANY film project right there.

I know nothing about this beyond this tweet

And it’s now my most anticipated film of 2027

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

David Leitch's ‘JASON STATHAM STOLE MY BIKE’ will release on August 6, 2027 in theaters.

Starring Jason Statham as Jason Statham.

[Exhibitor Relations Co. @ERCboxoffice]

Misfire.

Disney's MANDO & GROGU is losing -945 theaters in just its third week in cinemas.

The talent here is incredible!!!

I’ve long since left my MOTU toys behind but I think it creates a rich tapestry for artists. some of these MOTU art pieces are just incredible to behold.

[RUIZ BURGOS @RuizBurgosArt]

People of Eternia! @mastersmovie is finally here!
I couldn't resist to paint a little tribute. It started as a #skeletor portrait, but I just couldn't avoid adding more and more villains😅
I had a blast painting this, I hope you like it.

I used to. It started cool and novel. Then they started doing more, the price got higher and they started taking up a lot of space.

I ended up putting them all in a garage sale. One is cute. 10 started to look junky...and I had 75 or so.

(Also F The Marvels for their dumb blind-box Flerkin "popcorn buckets". @AMCTheatres and @marvelstudios ruining it for everyone)

Do you buy limited POPCORN BUCKETS?

Roger Avery tweeted out of the blue, accusing the co-writer of Pulp Fiction of contributing to the downfall of civilization for recommending Mortal Kombat. This is why Twitter is a minefield for positivity. #TwitterFails #PulpFiction #RogerAvery

Tomorrow our Winter/Spring donation drive ends, and we're biting off a big film to end on!

ROAR, the movie Stuart has wanted to review for years, and the movie that almost cost its famous cast and crew life and limb. Possibly the most unsafe movie ever made, it didn't even get an American release until over 30 years after it was done.

Join us for this final review and get ALL our Animal Attack movie reviews (Anaconda series, Alligator Series, Lake Placid series, AND Hitchcock's Birds movie and its sequel) by donating today!!!

The ice cream obsession in Halloween 4 is real! For the first 30 minutes, it's all about getting that scoop. "Get her the fucking scoop already!" is the iconic line. #Halloween #MovieQuotes

Story time: A corporate trainer accidentally blasted explicit movie dialogue from his phone in front of 20 managers. Talk about an unexpected icebreaker! #Storytelling #WorkLife

[Now Playing Podcast @NowPlayingPod]

What movie is this for you?

[Now Playing Podcast @NowPlayingPod]

That time Stuart got into fighting shape to play #HeMan. #nowplayingpodcast #linkinbio #mastersoftheuniverse #mastersoftheuniverse1987 #motu #hemanmovies #1987movies #fyp

The Moist Knight

[Kristina Bolten @Kristinartz]

Ruin a movie title by replacing one word with "moist." 🎬

[Now Playing Podcast @NowPlayingPod]

Fans are reacting to the new prequel series, 'Vought Rising,' set in the 1950s/60s. It explores the origins of the superhero-creating corporation Vought. Tentatively excited for this new chapter! #VoughtRising #Prequel

Find out in our review from 2012! Available in our archives!

[Alex Grand @Comichistorians]

Dr. Strange (CBS, 1978) didn't reach the innovative adventures laid out by Steve Ditko. But with the technology of the time, what would be a fair rating from 1-10 for this made for tv film?

[Jaime Rebanal 🇵🇸 (see pinned post!) @firewalkwjaime]

I'm almost done with Season 2 myself. Makes me sad that Star Wars is capable of reaching such heights and then they just choose to stick with easy fan service.

[Now Playing Podcast @NowPlayingPod]

Not sure I believe this. I think the @alamodrafthouse I loved is gone, replaced with Temu claw machines and in movie phone use.

But I hold out hope, like a 12 year old on Christmas Eve desperately trying to convince himself ther OS a Santa Claus

[Isaac Feldberg @isaacfeldberg]

I’ve been told on background Alamo is planning on rolling this back, but no time like the present!

A boxer tries to punch through Jason Voorhees' hockey mask. Even built for high-speed pucks, the mask withstands the blows. Jason literally knocks his head off. Pure badassery. #Horror #JasonVoorhees
