    This but the opening set piece takes place at the Barnes & Nobles Criterion flash sale. 🦃

    Crash 1996

    ★★★★★ Watched 18 Jun 2021 2

    Pre Y2K anxiety manifested in this primal, metallic collision. A meditative warning about a desensitised generation. This fucking slapped. This looked and sounded immaculate. Mesmerising.

    I’ve been wanting to watch this for so long and I’m so glad I finally did.  

    Basically a fucked up hybrid of the Vroom Vroom music video, that burning car engine in Fire Walk With Me, the music of Arca, and footage of me playing Toadette in Mario Kart.

    Red Rooms 2023

    ★★★★ Watched 03 Jan 2025

    Says something very interesting about how the world functions in a post-online age. In conversation with Demonlover and The Beast, and very specifically about the post-modern commodification of everything, even people. Cosplay in a courtroom, ISIS videos as NFTs, post-irony, customised AI assistants.

    Among the most ahead of its time films of this decade. Excellent probing, disorienting camerawork. Sick Uboa needledrop.

  • Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl

    Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl 2024

    ★★★½ Watched 02 Jan 2025

    Very cute. It remains very impressive what can be achieved with claymation, sad it’s becoming a dying artform. Also achieves the unachievable in making being British look appealing.

    A week of homosexual deviancy in the French countryside would cure me.
