Oh this was fantastic . It doesn't shy away from forecasting what may well be a future born out of the failed imaginings of modern tech leaders. Lonely men, a misunderstanding of human nature, a lack of empathy and on and on and on. Sophie Thatcher shines ...

A little bit of family-friendly Deadpool , some Power Rangers vibes, a dance scene with Mrs. Chen who happens to be in Vegas at exactly the wrong time and a Maroon 5 tune. Venom: The Ted Lasso Crossover Episode . There's a Venom horse, a Venom fish, a Veno...

Oh what the hell why not. There's camp, a lot of tentacles, sexual tension (everywhere), some buddy comedy elements, post-credit novella scenes. This movie is weird, vaguely cohesive and also — kinda — has everything. It's got pet chickens and hell yes...

This is my first time reading anything Peter F. Hamilton's written and it will not be my last. I spent years barely reading (books at least) or not reading at all and I can't shake the feeling that I'll never catch up. The Expanse series is what finally go...

This manages to be more enjoyable than a lot of recent Marvel movies simply by not taking itself so seriously. Venom is juvenile — sometimes to a fault, but it's not unbearably serious to the point that it stops being fun . I've got nostalgia for the old...

Fuck this planet. Right? There's a vocal set that insists on going to a dust ball that's not designed to kill us, but everything about it makes it perfect to kill us. Why? Hubris, probably hubris. The misguided notion that we'll actually be able to terrafo...

A more than capable sequel that trades in the lo-fi quality of the original, brings in a star-laden cast and leans a bit more towards gung-ho action movie. Britain has been emptied out of the infected (mostly). There's a lot to be said for them not being z...

A thin-skinned old man gets elected president, spars with allies and the press, turns bright red and tears down the seat of American government. But he doesn't toggle tariffs on and off like they're a light switch. It's an entertaining enough if altogether...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/ash-2025 · 27 Apr 2025
More visually appealing than narratively coherent Ash is a fairly compelling and ambitious debut for Flying Lotus (whose work I’m entirely unfamiliar with so everything here is absent that context). Eiza González and Aaron Paul are an interesting pairin...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/28-days-later-2002 · 27 Apr 2025
A classic of early aughts horror. Oddly optimistic, violent, bloody and visceral — plus it looks like it was shot on my second iPhone, or an iPhone 4? I immediately knew this was British not because of the accents or the scenery but because the people ac...
