‘You Can See Everything' Is Currently Letterboxd's Highest-Rated Film Ever, Beating ‘The Godfather,’ ‘12 Angry Men,’ ‘Seven Samurai’

Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's "You Can See Everything" has been in theaters for, what, three days? And it's already the highest-rated feature film of all time on Letterboxd.

Quentin Tarantino Calls David Fincher “My Favorite Director, Aside From Myself"

Quentin Tarantino doesn't usually put modern-day filmmakers on his level. That’s just how he is. David Fincher seems to be the one exception.

John Malkovich Is the Best Actor Frontrunner. Then It's Matt Damon, Andrew Scott, Ryan Gosling and… Tom Cruise?

At the top, it's John Malkovich's to lose. He is a lock for Martin McDonagh's "Wild Horse Nine.” This would be his first lead nod. A late-career Malkovich comeback in a McDonagh movie? I'm all for it.

Tom Holland to Star in Drew Pearce's Thriller ‘Penthouse’ for Sony — and I'm Still Not Convinced He’s a Movie Star

I'm going to say what a lot of people think, and won't say out loud: I don't believe Tom Holland can be a movie star outside of Spider-Man. That's been my genuine hunch for a few years now.

Jane Campion Says She ‘Hates' Superhero Movies

November 17, 2021 Jordan Ruimy

After Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Denis Villeneuve, Bong Joon-ho, Lucrecia Martel, David Cronenberg, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, David Fincher, James Mangold, Luc Besson, William Friedkin, Ken Loach, and John Woo … it’s time for Jane Campion to hop onboard the superhero hate train:

“I hate them,” Campion tells Variety. “I actually hate them.” Adding, “I think it’s safe to say that I will never do that. They’re so noisy and like ridiculous. Sometimes you get a good giggle, but I don’t know what the thing is with the capes, a grown man in tights. I feel like it must come from pantomime.”

On 10.26.21, I predicted Martin Scorsese may have started a revolution with his anti-Marvel comment, and I believe that is very much the case we’re seeing here with all these well-respected directors hopping on-board his bandwagon.
