Wasn't sure about Heat 2 at first, but then about 35 pages in Mann and Gardiner start riffing on Manhunter with Vincent Hanna in the Will Graham role, and now I'm all:

It’s far from a feat of dwarven engineering, but there’s plenty to appreciate about The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 3 — provided you grant it a little leeway 👇 https://t.co/bEn24Rs1pc #TheRingsOfPowerS3

@Darren_Mooney Interviewed Vic Armstrong for the Rings of Power S2 junket, and he while he was delightful throughout, he really perked up when I mentioned the Hollywood Bulldogs documentary / we discussed his work on Bond and Indy.

New episode of #TheBackdrop here, from @JanjoZone and I, looking at #GodzillaMinusZero, a sequel that is - at least in part - about the difficulty of making a “Godzilla” sequel.

James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as co-heads of DC Studios after four years:

• Marvel Studios veteran Jeremy Latcham will take over as president and chief creative officer on Dec. 1

• Gunn and Safran will “return full time to their creative work” ahead of “Man of Tomorrow,” the sequel to 2025’s “Superman,” which hits theaters July 9, 2027.

• Said Gunn and Safran: “Four years ago, we set out to unite DC under one creative vision. In that time, we helped restore Superman to the heart of DC, while opening new doors and telling new stories in film and television with Peacemaker, Creature Commandos, Lanterns and Clayface. We’re immensely proud of the team that turned that ambition into something real, including the actors, crews and executives we had the opportunity to collaborate with. We’ve shared a creative history with Jeremy going back to Marvel, and we’re eager to see the perspective he brings to DC’s next chapter. We’re excited to return to what drew us to this job in the first place, which is telling the stories we love, including the next chapter of Clark and Lex’s journey in Man of Tomorrow.”

Caught Wild Horse Nine over the weekend. A delightful film, it's a scathing rebuke of American foreign policy that can just as easily be enjoyed as a meditation on regret, mortality, and the quirks of male friendship. Rockwell and Malkovich are outstanding #WildHorseNine

CINEMA PARADISO returns to the PCC in its beautiful 4K restoration on Sat 14th Nov at 8:45pm, with more shows on 6th and 21st Jan.

A real PCC staple, and for our money the theatrical cut is still the one to see.

@Darren_Mooney And as an art form, it’s tremendously fun and rewarding to learn and do.

Ken Russell’s THE DEVILS on 35mm, as seen from our projection booth this morning.

Another day, another sold-out show. We’ve already reached 17 fully booked screenings in its opening week alone, which is frankly insane.

It took many talented hands to bring the General’s magnificent wingspan to life. See the results of their incredible craftsmanship on the big screen in Wildwood, in theatres now. #Wildwood
