In case you weren't feeling like the crypt-keeper yet, Jacob Tremblay would like to remind you how very ancient you, in fact, are! That tiny prodigiously talented Room star can now drive cars and will be able to vote in the next Presidential election.

Box office reporting is actually incredible because any single movie can now be both the biggest dogshit disappointment and a sleeper home run at the same time. It’s a game of spin made completely meaningless by the noise. pic.twitter.com/tuHjpzYASH

They never say “we made this one for the fans” when the the reviews are good

Shocked and kinda disappointed to have discovered/fully realized that since 2015, Tom Hardy has only done *two* non-Venom movies (Dunkirk and Capone). Why is he wasting his prime movie star years like this?

THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN: if martin mcdonagh/brendan gleeson/colin farrell have a million fans, then i am one of them. if they have ten fans, then i am one of them. if they have only one fan then that is me. if they have no fans, then that means i am no longer on earth.

Taylor Swift definitely watched Claire Denis films with Joe and pretended to love them because she wanted to be supportive but hated every single one of them except Let the Sunshine In.

and ending with this one because we feel Jason's pain on this issue. It is absurd how often "cult classic" is trotted out to describe mainstream big budget studio pictures...oscar isaac oscar isaac

I am FULL ON BEGGING entertainment writers to learn what a fucking “cult classic” is! https://t.co/oOKWQKc8D1

Wait, isn't Jacob Tremblay Canadian? Don't they have a different voting age than the ones in the U.S.?
Oh, the rampant but completely uninformed use of the term “cult classic” is super frustrating. I’ll never forget the time I saw All About Eve referred to in an article published by a major website as a “cult classic” that starred “the criminally under-appreciated Bette Davis.” One of the reasons I love this blog is because it seems to be one of the few places left where I don’t have to explain the absurdity of that.
thevoid99 -- oh i hadn't thought of that. oops. the voting age is the same in canada. but i shouldn't have typed "presidential election"

What an embarrassment for the Vogue Runway media team. Especially when it's regarding a film with such iconic female fashions! So, so sad. If they feel that way about Working Girl, then what hope do we have that they remember Irene Dunne's eye-popping stylishness in The Awful Truth. Sigh.
Ellsworth -- Claudio did a write up on one of her performances for our tribute. I have unfortunately not had the time to write much lately (job search etcetera. out of funds)
