    The last time there was this much tea spilt was in 1773.

    A movie so nice I had to see it twice (but this time in IMAX)

    Much like Lily-Rose Depp I was entranced with my first time seeing Nosferstu, so going into this screening I was eager to see if this movie held up to the extremely high praise I’ve given it. Was this really a dull film hidden behind the veneer of beautiful cinematography and 50 shades of blue? Fuck no, it was even better this time around!

    Being a body builder myself, I was so hyped for an inspirational body building film. Needless to say if you’ve seen this movie you know it is NOT that at all. While this wasn’t what I expected, I was not disappointed in the slightest. Jonathan Majors coming out of the weeds with a career defining performance. Magazine Dreams is comprised of one incredibly tragic sequence of events after another that didn’t let up for a single second till the very end. I haven’t felt this much anxiety since watching Uncut Gems. Great film, but god I hope I never had to watch it again.

    Telling someone you want to have a casual relationship in the middle of Ikea is diabolical.

    Babe wake up, a new strange but oddly charming Robert Pattinson accent just dropped. 

    This movie was a little all over the place but a lot of fun! I’m so glad Mark Ruffalo was let free from Marvel’s basement so he can be an absolute freak on screen. More of this please!
