Remembering the Forgotten Movies of the 2026 Oscar Season A salute to the urgent documentaries, quiet dramas and provocative filmmakers who were ignored by Academy voters.

I saw six, wrote about two, and put two in my year-end list. Good looking out, @timgrierson.bsky.social! www.rogerebert.com/festivals/re...

I can’t help but think that, when you-know-who dies, his autopsy will either be permanently classified or the thing that sets off a global revolution.

USAID: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO) YouTube video by LastWeekTonight

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any more fucked up, John Oliver informs you that it’s even worse.

We will be paying for Orange Boy’s damage for generations. youtu.be/tU8S13xYJNM?...

Random hot take: Gregg Araki's NOWHERE is the movie Larry Clark's KIDS should've been.

(cue long fart noise)

If all this shit was a movie you’d walk out saying it was too far fetched.

There were times during Biden’s presidency when I thought back to Orange Boy’s first term and was like, did all that shit really happen?

I wish I could go back to those moments of peaceful reflection.

The fucked-up part is I might get kicked out before he does because I’m late on my rent and he’s always on time.

Just got into it with my old roommate who takes my loose hair from the bathtub and smears it on the toilet we share. He started yelling about wanting to “catch me outside,” and when I said let’s go, that’s when he pulled out a taser.

I got the whole thing on video, if you wanna see it.

It’s Not Just Free Food Houston food influencers say their job involves strategy, contracts, ethics, and very long days.

I wanted to mention that SIMPSONS moment, but I couldn’t think of a good place for it.

You know Audra McDonald’s phone has been blowing up thanks to Timothee Chalamet’s young ass.

Harvey's Hellhole: Il Postino (The Postman) — Crooked Marquee With the Oscars around the corner, this month’s look at the cinematic misdeeds of Miramax returns to a movie lost to time: the 1995 Best Picture nominee that served as a dry run for the success of “Li...

I’m actually shocked we haven’t gotten a Rick James mention until now. www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

Here are the top 14 things to do in Houston this weekend We’re officially in rodeo mode, which means Ubers and METRORails will be filled with cowboy hat-wearing folk, heading over to NRG Park and indulging in all the western extravagance.

Remember, all of this is happening because White people really, really didn’t want a Black female president. #neverforget

Looking back at my childhood, I’m quite certain my mother thought I was a fucking weirdo.

Dear Oscars, Just Give Everything to 'Sinners' Hear me out: a clean sweep for Ryan Coogler's blood-and-blues orgy on Oscar night could be what this country needs right now

SINNERS won big earlier tonight, and it can happen again. open.substack.com/pub/unclecri...

Review - Scream 7 Starring Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, Isabel May, Jasmin Savoy Brown.

I still remember @splicedpersonality.bsky.social telling me about the time he missed shooting his shot with Neve Campbell.

I knew that story would end up in a review one day. open.substack.com/pub/splicedp...

An Evening With Tim Heidecker | Stand-Up Special YouTube video by Tim Heidecker

I always thought Tim Heidecker’s “stand-up” was him snarkily playing up the hack-comic stereotype for the alt-/anti-comedy crowd.

Now, I realize that he was preparing us for all these popular, alt-right clowns who claim to be edgy but are really just assholes. youtu.be/0gnnFVRlucg?...

SNL has now done two episodes in a row where the pretty-boy guest host turns out to be a secret physical comedian — and I don’t like it.

Random hot take: The best MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE movies are the ones that had Jeremy Renner in it.

I went to the Wayback Machine to see if Armond White’s rave of TOMCATS (aka the first review of his I read that made me think, “Is dude for real?”) still exists online.

When you find out the "top-notch hater" journalist Jasmine Crockett kicked out of an event was Taylor Lorenz.

Harvey's Hellhole: Teaching Mrs. Tingle — Crooked Marquee This month’s examination of the cinematic misdeeds of Miramax spotlights Kevin Williamson’s directorial debut, a would-be black comedy softened and spoiled by the brothers Weinstein.

So, you say the guy who directed TEACHING MRS. TINGLE didn’t do a good job with the latest SCREAM sequel.

Yeah, not that surprising. crookedmarquee.com/harveys-hell...
