Adorable android girl, or I'm out.

Excellent clip featuring Campbell. The extended video is interesting as well; it becomes somewhat deterministic and solipsistic towards the end.

Really excited for the streaming release of Backrooms and Obsession, especially the latter—it’s getting a lot of buzz! Hokum, on the other hand, was a bit of a letdown for me.

A beautiful, overlooked film with an amazing soundtrack.

The Studio isn't a movie, but it's a must-watch for film enthusiasts, particularly those fascinated by the filmmaking process. It's incredibly witty and hilarious. Episodes 1, 3, and 9 were absolute genius, and the finale in Vegas was fantastic! Oh, how I love movies! 🥲

The Leo Gura cartridge: starts as a self-help game, ends with deleting the game console.

This is really impressive.

Europe is nothing without America.

Forever the greatest country in the world.

Yeah, I'm curious to see what the user rating will be.

"I'm more Muslim than most Muslims." As someone raised in that religion, I find this very funny. Leo is the first genuine Muslim I have known in this life—a true submitter to God.

It’s a solid rating—not quite the standout in the mid-90s I was hoping for, but still good enough to make it a day-one pick for me.

Actualized Quote #541 is my favorite, so I’m saving it. It brings to mind Bernadette Roberts' The Human Passage.

There are no beans to spill.

I might watch it for the entertainment value.

Unfortunately, this is not entertaining.

Smile 2 is also incredible. I'm not sure if it's better than the first, but it's certainly wilder in places, and I really enjoyed it. The concept is brilliant and it's executed so well. I'd gladly watch Smile 3, 4, 5, and 6! It should become a whole franchise, just like Saw, Final Destination, and Scream. This concept has so much potential.

Smile is a surprisingly good horror film, not as silly as its title and poster might suggest. It’s well-written, well-acted, and has the kind of dramatic structure I enjoy in movies. I’ve heard the sequel is even better, so I’m really looking forward to watching it. Another interesting horror film I’ve seen, though not nearly as good as Smile, is The Autopsy of Jane Doe. The concept is intriguing, but it doesn’t quite reach its full potential—still worth a watch.

The Housemaid is actually a pretty good movie. Slow but entertaining. Better than Send Help.

That one really isn't for me. I just can't get into it. There's no dramatic structure, just the stark realism of the system, which I find incredibly boring.
