(353) Thirst in Venice + links

Watch Movies TV -

• Oh sweet lord...
• This aggressively hot vision of I wanna be in your cult, sir is from new trailer for Bad Times at the El Royale. That's how you sell a movie. Wet, shirtless, villainous Chris Hemsworth. 
• I almost choked on my own drool. 
• So I slave and I slave over my Sharp Objects recap and 2 comments? Y'all...
• 
• I'm still so creeped out by that ending. 
• And Eliza Scanlen deserves EVERYTHING.
• 
• Mark my words -Cooper and Gaga campaigning for A Star is Born is gonna be the most entertaining Oscar campaign in a while. Just look at this. 
• We have the soundtrack details. 
• The movie just premiered in Venice and Gaga showed up to the red carpet in a stunning dress. The film is getting amazing reviews and she is getting raves for her performance. It's gonna be such an exciting Oscar season, just imagine her outfits!
• That thing is so fierce even Mother Nature is shook!
• About halfway through the screening of Bradley Cooper’s music drama, the theater was apparently struck by lightning, which blew out the projector bulb, according to sources close to the producers. The delay lasted about 15 minutes. Lady Gaga could be seen chuckling and blowing kisses to the audience as festival technicians scrambled to fix the issue.
• Finally, the Oscar season WE DESERVE!
• Not a good day for Ryan Gosling with this and Cooper emerging as the front runner in Best Actor race. Gosling out there pretending to be in space and dealing with Damien from Omen (I'm sorry but this is all I think of when I see Chazelle) and here comes Cooper with his shiny movie where he plays an alcoholic and a drug addict and cries and shouts and sings. 
• Look into his eyes. Look at that thirst:
• 
• This is by the way also the way I look at that above gif of Hemsworth. 
• You know, if Ethan Hawke personally came to my house, took his pants off, took a shit on my carpet and then picked it up and flung it right on my wall like a fucking monkey I'd be less pissed at him than I am now. 
• Good Lord almighty. 
• To think a movie is better or worse because of what genre it is or what the source material is or who directed it, no matter how good that movie turns out to be is just straight up moronic.
• BITCH you were in Daybreakers. Take a step back. No, take few steps back. No, all the way back till you fall down the stairs. 
• Speaking of terrible. Scum all involved. Pure and simple. 
• At least Woody Allen is getting some time-out. 
• David Fincher and Taratrash chose the same actor to play Charles Manson in their projects which is kinda cool. 
• After years of being disrespected and not getting paid enough Emmy Rossum is leaving Shameless. Also - that show is in its ninth season?! It's gotta be soap opera on crack by now.
• 
• First clip from Suspiria. Tomorrow we will have the reactions from Venice film festival. 
• Straight from Venice new trailer for First Man. This one was better than the last one, but still not great. Foy is easily stealing the spotlight here. The reviews are positive but not ecstatic and only the latter kind of reviews would make me excited for this one. It looks like stale, cliche biopic and the impressive technical side is always secondary to emotional one for me. I doubt I will care about any characters here. 
• So Oscar Isaac had a meeting about that upcoming Batman movie. And here come the ridiculous fanboys not fit to lick Schlong boo's boots saying that he is too short to be Batman. Oh, but the creature from dumpster lagoon is better, huh? 
• With my luck they'll cast Oscar as Two Face and wreck his beautiful face.
• Finally, actual good trailer for The Predator. 
• Intriguing first trailer for True Detective 3. 
• Boo kangaroo is there for US Open. How can female players even look at the ball under these circumstances? 

• Trailer for The Front Runner and the great first poster. That's the wig of nightmares movie. Hugh is really trying to get that second nomination there and I hope he does because it's an absolute disgrace he got nothing for Logan last year. 
• Schindler's List is getting re-released. Look at that subtle poster. 
• I started watching Killing Eve and the tone of it surprised me so much. I thought it's gonna be dark but it's quirky like some hipster fashion show not a series about murders. It's different but I don't like it, just not my thing. Entertaining, but not the kind of show I would love.
• I rewatched Arrival. It was marginally less dull than the last time I watched it, but that script is still a mess. That whole thing had holes as big as those damn alien ships and that she speaks to Chinese general plot is so poorly executed.
• 
• Also rewatched American Hustle. Jennifer Lawrence may have some charisma but it is not coincidental she doesn't have any Oscar vehicles now that Weinstein is out of the game. We all saw the pictures. 
• Bale and Renner are good since they play the only characters somewhat resembling human beings and Bradley Cooper seems to be the only one in on a joke. 
• *Amy Adams screaming on a toilet*
• Jesus. 
• It was actually distressing seeing her slutting it up after being so sweet in Sharp Objects.
• I saw Zipper which was pretty good even though it had the quality of low budget porn.
• Jason is so precious and I love him so much:
• 
• Brittani reviews Crazy Rich Asians
• Chris looks back at his best of lists
• Sonia reviews Ocean's 8

• Mario reviews Teen Titans GO! To the Movies
