Raging Love Letter to Judy Gemstone

I’m a huge fan of chaotic women on screen—especially the kind with impeccable comedic timing and the emotional restraint of a raccoon in a trash can. I didn’t think I’d meet my fictional dream girl until I witnessed Edi Patterson as Judy Gemstone in The Righteous Gemstones. Now, with Season 4 wrapped, my admiration has reached combustion levels, and I can’t keep quiet about it. So here it is: an unruly, slightly unhinged tribute to the most unapologetically wild woman on TV. Judy has always stoo

CultoLatino: What a great series, and even coming from Danny McBride, I particularly find the sense of humor that Danny McBride brings to his series funny. It's a very brutal and sometimes vulgar humor, with coarse language and a lack of obscenities. That's why I also think it's not the typical comedy series that everyone will like. And Judy's role is brilliant; she doesn't fit any of the classic molds of women on television, especially in a series about a conservative Christian family. Edi Patterson gives one of the most physical and uncontrolled performances in the series, from the way she walks, screams, cries, or hurls insults. As you say, everything about Judy is excessive and over-the-top, and that's what makes her magnetic. I liked that you talked about this series; I'll give you my 10 likes in support! If you're interested, I wrote three articles in Spanish (to be translated) that might interest you; they're on my profile. Cheers!

Final Destination: Bloodlines IS COMING—Ready to Cheat Death Again?

I must have been living under a rock, because I just found out that Final Destination 6 (aka Final Destination: Bloodlines) is officially coming to theaters on May 16th (2025). I repeat: May Sixteenth. Fourteen years since the last installment, and somehow the announcement still managed to sneak up on me like a flying wrench on a rollercoaster. And if you’ve already watched the trailer—good for you. If not, it's time go do it. I am not what you’d call brave. I’m the kind of person who gets anxio

Don’t Watch Conclave - Watch The Two Popes

It shouldn’t have come as a surprise to me that everyone ran to go watch Conclave after Pope Francis’ passing on Easter Monday - and yet there I was, shocked. I understand the impulse, sure. There’s going to be a new Pope, so of course everyone wants to watch the picking-a-new-Pope movie! But I’m not convinced that Conclave is the best depiction of a conclave, at least if you’re aiming for realism. More importantly, though, a real person died, and I'm not sure watching a fictional melodrama set

Mimi Cave’s Vision of Domestic Horror and The Male Gaze

If you love slow burn thrillers and wild reveals, then Holland is your next obsessive rewatch. Buckle up and adjust your prescription lenses before you hit play , because Holland 2025 is not your average suburban thriller…. This film is packed with nods from the director Mimi Caves favorite auteurs, and she’s not shy about it. There’s a little Hitchcock and dare I say, a dash of David Lynch in how she flirts with psychological horror just enough to keep you on edge. The Polaroid Thesis: Behind t

Beautiful People-- Comedically Suffering-- Karmically-Caused-- For "Two Weeks-- In Bruges-- Wichu?"

As another fantastic season of Mike White's The White Lotus (his third) comes to a blistering close-- I'm once again reminded of a particularly niche-in-specificity-- cinematic-subset-genre that I often find myself largely hankering for, drawing towards and returning back to. That of which I like to call-- "Beautiful People Being Utterly Miserable, While Totally Trapped In Paradise, & Comically Stuck On Vacation." What should ostensibly be a totally fun time in the sun-- usually instead tends to

A Minecraft Movie: A Movie for Losers

Teenage boys used to be cool. Teenage boys used to be rebellious in a way that felt at least somewhat culturally valuable. They spearheaded counter-cultural activities and artistic movements, like skateboarding and punk music. This “coolness” has always been performative, but it never felt informed by a desire for attention. Now, “coolness” is synonymous with chaos, destruction, and above all else, this thirst for attention at any cost. Now, to feel cool, teenage boys are trashing movie theatres

Matthew Alan Schmidt: I truly fear the effects this phenomenon will have on the future of the theatre experience. I hate how it's becoming normalized for people to record videos on their phones during screenings, many of which with the flash turned on no-less. I'm very grateful to have been able to see this pile of garbage in a 19+ theatre where I didn't have to deal with any of this added social-media-trend bullshit.

'Sinners' Review: A Haunting, Soulful Ode to Black Music and the Vampires Who Feed on It

From the first shot of Sinners, you know you're in for something soul-stirring. A young man, soaked in blood and clutching a shattered guitar, stumbles into a church full of worshippers. His name is Sammie (played by newcomer Miles Caton in a revelatory performance), and his story is one of pain, beauty, and transformation. So too is Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Ryan Coogler's latest film, a bold and breathtaking journey through the heart of the Mississippi Delta that sings with soul and sc

The Problem with 'You' Season 5

The end of Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) and You came and went last month. After several seasons of Joe getting away with ruining lives, stalking his obsessions, and killing people, he didn't get away this time. Considering the reality of our waking world, it's certainly satisfying for fans to see someone like Joe get what's coming to him. But You season 5 has too many disappointing aspects. And all of those outweigh as well as impact the incredibly divisive series finale. Season 5 is set 3 years

Duskrunner, a Real Life Star Wars Murder Mystery

It was the Wookie, in the Cargo Hold, with the Lightsaber. If only it had been so simple. By now, oceans of ink have been written about the tragedy that marked Disney's Duskrunner, a murder mystery miniseries in the Star Wars Universe. In case you haven't heard about it, here's the quick version: on the final day of shooting, actress Marissa Douglas, star of the show, was found dead. Within hours, the internet came up with crazy conspiracy theories about her death. They didn't care about the tra

Another Simple Favor: My Complex Obsession with Mean Girl Blake Lively

To be honest, as a petite and slender woman, I've harbored complex feelings toward tall, beautiful women since puberty. On one hand, I'm somewhat intimidated by them. It's like having a fear of trendy people - similar to how an ordinary girl might fear Regina. I worry that as someone poor and ordinary, I'm just a country bumpkin in their presence. On the other hand, I know I deeply envy them. I dream of being ten or twenty centimeters taller, of commanding attention like they do, of being able t

La Haine, or How I Let Her Down

Recommendations are like prejudices; everyone has them. Whenever I tell people that I'm a movie guy, they always come back with some random movie recommendation, and they're always shocked when I haven't seen it; like I am supposed to have seen everything. Moviewatching, to me, is a lifelong journey. If I watch everything now, what will I discover when I'm older? You don't see me flabbergasted because no one has ever watched I Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang. My list of movie recommendations is

Matthew Alan Schmidt: While it is most certainly a shame you never got to discuss this with her during the time you both lived here, I can't think of a better opportunity to reconnect with an old friend now that you've finally watched it!
