Stop 👏 trying 👏 to 👏 make 👏 cinematic 👏 universes 👏 and 👏 focus 👏 on 👏 making 👏 great 👏 standalone 👏 films.

Preach. Sequels used to happen because of love for a standalone. Now they're built into it like everything is a prologue.
Lots more after the jump including Twitter's current Kidman obsession, Disney villains, Tab Hunter, and more...

Dear DVD player do not put the subtitle 'bondage' when there is a close up of Hugh Jackman's face. It may kill someone (me) #TheFountain pic.twitter.com/USKyEg65Dp

Netflix's strategy of only acquiring shitty movies so you are forced to watch their original content is fascinating

I'm afraid that several of my closest friendships will fall apart if Nicole Kidman ever stops working.

That we need these posts insisting on Kidman's greatness makes me appreciate my happy media bubble inside which obvious things are obvious
— Michael Cusumano (@SeriousFilm) April 3, 2017
I am going to survive this year out of spite and also because I have to live to see Nicole Kidman in Top Of The Lake season 2.

POST SCRIPT
I think I've mentioned this before but I continue to be blown away by Naomi Watts on social media. Why is she so totally fun on social media but so humorless onscreen? Bring some of that sass and funny personality to your performances, please!
SHE! DID! THAT! pic.twitter.com/WWIKrH3Niy
