Striking Poses: Fake identities, pointless schemes, and a conspiracy with more moving parts than motives. It’s less a plot than a Rube Goldberg machine of confusion—and weirdly fun to pick apart.

Forget the algorithm. These 8 Christmas films actually earned their place in the canon: from Capra's philosophy to Ferrell's chaos, from stop-motion poetry to gremlins wreaking havoc. Your essential viewing guide is here. 🎄✨

Grounded in Love isn’t just a hastily written romcom. It’s also the rare kind of faith-based film that doesn’t shove the Bible down your throat — and yet, among all that clunky exposition, it feeds us a line that’s harder to swallow than all of Jesus’ miracles combined.

A horror movie that can’t fact-check its own opening crawl and treats human cruelty like a warm-up act. The Inside (2012) turns found footage into lost cause, piling bad stats, bad choices, and worse ideas into one warehouse of chaos.

In Nightmare City 2035 (2007), the Matrix is a moveable feast. Instead of machines harvesting humans for energy, the powers that be are running what is best described as a virtual gentrification scam.

Frankenstein has never scared me — not even in Guillermo del Toro’s version.
Maybe beauty killed the monster’s horror.

The Poltergeist Diaries tries to pass as American found footage and ends up haunted by its own accents. A ghost story without a country—and without credibility.

Reap (2020) quotes Lovecraft, name-drops Nietzsche, and still manages to miss the point of both. A film about fear of the unknown that knows absolutely nothing.

Day of Wrath (2006) wants to defend Jewish endurance but ends up inventing the world’s least self-aware conspiracy theory: a Spain where everyone’s secretly Jewish and the Inquisition was their idea. A pious mess of hypocrisy, history, and candlelit melodrama.

I’ve always thought that Jodie Foster is either very smart or endowed with the uncanny ability to project intelligence. The Beaver (2011) is neither of those things, but its problem is not so much that it’s dumb as that it’s lazy.

There is an idea of a Veronica Sawyer. But there is no real her. Only an entity. Something illusory. She simply is not there.

One-Eyed Jacks (1961) is as thematically uneven as its director-star Marlon Brando’s range was wide. Alternately blunt and subtle, the film’s irregular approach achieves a precarious balance in a notable sequence that features a replica of the Mona Lisa quietly hanging in the background like Poe’s purloined letter.

Guys and Dolls is a better film whenever it forgets it’s a musical. Brando charms, Sinatra cracks wise, and the songs mostly get in the way. A story about faith, chance, and what happens when talking outshines singing.

⚖️ Pirates of the Caribbean: The Artificial Society of Law
Part II of V in The Natural Society of the Sea

Edmund Burke saw the sickness of artificial society long before it had a name — and in the modern age, we’re all living in its aftermath.

⏰ Releases tomorrow at 12 PM.

A storm-tossed ship struggles against the sea, from J. M. W. Turner’s The Shipwreck, overlaid with the title Pirates of the Caribbean: The Artificial Society of Law.

Part I is the prologue. Part II goes deep on Burke (pastiche → prophecy). Then Foucault. Then synthesis. Then design.

👾🥱 Ridley Scott's ancient films about androids behaving badly are supposed to be about the "horrors" of AI—how original! 🚀 Meanwhile, Robert Alpert spends way too much time connecting rocket fantasies from 1936 to the breakfast habits of a rogue toaster in space. 🍞📡
