In honor of page 1996, here's a clip from one of the best scenes from Mission: Impossible:

Also, one of my indelible childhood memories is seeing that movie with my parents in the theater; my mother was on the edge of her seat during the entire CIA break-in sequence. When Krieger's knife dropped, my mom actually stood up, reached toward the screen and screamed, "NO!"

He was deceived into thinking he was emailing with famous wrestlers about a big scoop. But the fact that he admitted to being deceived and then volunteered all that other information about getting owned by the same person takes it from :shrug: to :eyepop:

I checked their app when I was leaving work AGAIN and it still had screenings at the Egyptian as a choosable option so I decided to chance it, and they removed the movie listing a half hour before the screening and I'm, like, unreasonably outraged right now. It's loving stupid that I'm so angry about this, but I am. This is the second time Moviepass hosed me while I tried to be a responsible movie-goer and not try to abuse their system.

e: to be clear, I'm angry at Moviepass for loving their card users a half hour before showtime. Smithee, if you figure out a way to game the system, take those guys to the cleaners.

I just saw this film called Tamango (1958) from the (at the time) blacklisted director John Berry - same guy who did Claudine (1974) - and it's excellent.

Speaking of which, it's not bad. It took me to about the 2/3rds mark before I realized it's a remake of Outrageous Fortune and as a remake of a pretty good Bette Middler/Shelley Long comedy, it's actually pretty ideal.

"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

alright folks i watched the last 40 minutes of Christopher Robin and the movie ends with Workaholic Christopher Robin learning the importance of family over work, but also him saving the luggage company he works for by encouraging them to give all of their employees paid vacation (thus giving them a reason to need to buy luggage) and lowering the price of the luggage they sell so everyone can buy some. Also the son of the owner of the company is revealed to be a lazy rear end in a top hat who makes others do his work for him. Christopher Robin, Proletariat Hero

now, i bet you a gazillion dollars that Disney, which is not unlike the large luggage company that Christopher Robin works for, would not in a million years do that of their own volition. Because they don't even pay the workers at their parks enough to live.
