Now I just have to find which of you are over at the other place. Because social media is no fun with nobody there, and here is like watching The Sound of Music as the von Trapp family do the so long farewell to the Salzburg Music Festival.

I mostly agree with that, Bilge. It's a major problem. But I don't think it's THE problem.
Interesting piece, but imo it misdiagnoses the main problem: In many cases, people simply are not aware of what movies are coming out. There are plenty of films being made that people will want to see, but they don't know those movies exist. variety.com/2025/film/column…

And that’s a wrap. My Oscars live blog is now not live any more but hopefully the Internet Archive will keep it around forever and the best bits discussed in film circles for minutes to come.

We're still talking about the exact day but it's looking like May 2026 for publication of @PatrickMFitz Navigators You Can Trust. Such a great adventure fantasy. Can't publish soon enough!
Coming up soon - I'm on the program @boskonenews in ten days, with two panels and a Kaffeeklatsch. Hope to see some of you there. And often in the hotel bar in the evening for the BarCon part of the convention. Many clients have I found at Boskone

The @PatrickMFitz deal announced this week. The @timchawaga in the fall. Another debut novel in the announcement pipeline, another debut novel going to acquisitions as of Friday which is always a fingers crossed randomness. Minimum three and maybe four debut novels…

And, hey, you can check out my Last Showgirl review on Letterboxd after you’ve given a read to Owen

Great @OwenGleiberman column about The Last Showgirl, and Owen doesn’t even get to Jamie Lee Curtis, whom I would say has the most transcendent single moment in this fine film

Here's a line from my pitch letter to editors for @PatrickMFitz NAVIGATORS YOU CAN TRUST:
"this is to typical action fantasy what Raiders of the Lost Ark is to to Saturday morning cliffhangers"
So excited to have this debut novel sale announced this week.
Might just be the best action fantasy I have come across in a forty year career.
I asked @PatrickMFitz for not just great action sequences from a quartet of archetypal heroes but worldbuilding like it’s a great epic fantasy, and that’s what he delivered.
Pub date TBD…
If I didn’t have a day job my entire January would be over @FilmForumNYC . A rep series of AI movies, one great movie after another. Total T2 Recall and Star Wars and Westworld and Videodrome and Demon Seed and Zardoz and one temptation after another.

and here's a link to the actual review with not a single word about the plush rockers that the AMC Lincoln Square received for its 30th birthday present
In a pair of star performances, @KekePalmer and @sza rule in #OneOfThemDays, a fast-talking day-in-the-life-of-the-hood comedy made with a '90s verve. bit.ly/3Wn9B6X

the most important question goes unanswered in the @OwenGleiberman review of One of them Days. He liked the movie, so that elevates it on my viewing list for the weekend. But what did he think of the new plush rocker seats at the Lincoln Square? The plush rockers???
