Control

But god why does it have to be on the nazi bot site?

This BURST show looks interesting (results from purolove): Towa Iwasaki out there booking himself into a main event that draws 2200 people.

You know who never gets injured? Kento Miyahara. Make the call!

Kawada retired 15 years ago my dude.

Has anyone, like, seen a Zero One match in the last decade?

I’m 100% behind the new RUNNING MAN.

Vinegar Syndrome is releasing a 4K of MAC & ME. Add that to their previous release of HOBGOBLINS, Deaf Crocodile’s MAGIC SWORD, and Severin’s release of POD PEOPLE, and you’ve got an MST3K boutique label starter pack.

Honestly, the scene of Edie eating like half a dozen eggs is what almost did me in.

I knew going in how the film ended but was not prepared for how the film ended.

Thought I was a pretty hardened filmgoer. Then last night I saw PINK FLAMINGOS for the first time.

I’ve been an AJPW loyalist for years, so I didn’t previously want it to happen, because it would be, like, death #4 for All Japan. But they seem healthy enough that they could survive without him. Meanwhile, he’s still got gas left in the tank. Also, for NJPW, Tanahashi is retiring, so they can replace him with a younger version

Finally finished this season. Gatwa was great. The seasons were uneven. Thought it was a very strange choice to start at season 1, have the Disney deal, and choose an actor to help appeal to a new audience, and then make a series almost entirely dependent on knowledge of the 50+ year history of the show. I mean, this season had Omega, the Rani, Rose, and Susan (for no apparent reason).

Trump would have been in his 20s when Mailer ran for mayor, no? I need to check this out. TOWN BLOODY HALL, which was previously on the Criterion Channel, is a pretty entertaining Mailer documentary, focusing on his “debate” with a handful of prominent feminists. They mostly eat his lunch.

Now was the time to bring in Kento Miyahara. Hell, have him win it and scoop him up from AJPW. He’s done everything he can there, and they finally have guys (Anzai, the Saitos) to make up for his popularity. Plus, it would be funny as hell if Kento went to NJPW and buried Jake Lee.

I want this but for Mike Leigh.

QT loves Blaxploitation films. The dialogue in RD would make perfect sense if it was a performed by a bunch of Black actors.

Rewatched THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY for the first time in years, and I always forget it’s basically the Tuco Show.

Stagefright/Sect/Church are all directed by Soavi, right? Two of them (plus Cemetery Man) are available from Severin. The Bava set looks interesting, but I’m worried all the good stuff is in the trailer.

Ok, anyone got a theory for this? If I do hammer curls in any format, my arms are even. Today, I tried doing my hammer curls as concentration curls, and one of my arms is substantially weaker. Like, right arm is doing 30 lbs and the left arm struggles with 20. Any idea what would cause that imbalance to only show up with the concentration hammer curl? hammer curl in any other format: no imbalance. Concentration curls that aren’t hammer curls? No imbalance. Maybe it’s a flexibility thing and not a strength thing?

I’ve tried sharing the link to Yann Gonzalez in the Severin Cellar, but the board won’t let me. So, seek it out: Gonzalez refers to Russ Meyers’ films as having “tres boobies.”

He’s the only actor in TOUGH GUYS DON’T DANCE who actually figured out what kind of film he’s in.

Criterion flash sale is on now. Since ordering from them direct to Canada is insanely expensive, I ordered through their Canadian distributor, who offers a lower (40%) discount. Nevertheless, ordered the following UHDs: - Godzilla vs Biollante - Wages of Fear - Paper Moon

Yeah. This is great. Finally, a person going after UHDs and talking about physical media.
