    There’s his fondness for Adam Sandler movies, for one, and his intense love of both Star Wars and Tiffany Haddish. (We don’t get the Adam Sandler part as much, but you do you, PTA.)

    Because, believe it or not, Sandler has a decent catalog of films that were adored for over a decade. Yea, he’s been tapped out for a bit, and his Netflix junk (and last few big studio movies) have been bad, but cmon. I know its cool to hate on Sandler, but the dude put out a solid selection of films in his hay day.

    To each their own I guess.

      Punch Drunk Love is criminally underrated as a film. I wish it wasn’t because that film resonated with me so much.

    Just a reminder, that Lucy is also Maya Rudulph’s daughter. I actually didn’t know until just recently that PTA and Rudolph had been together since 2001. So I’m sure the kid is talented!!

    The Syfy original movie “Ghost Shark” was based on an original idea by the head of programming’s seven year old daughter & really was not worse than most of their movies.

    Why do so many acclaimed directors look like they’re their own barber?

    So I just caught Phantom Thread for a second time last night, and I just wanna ask something...

    Why the actual fuck does no one seem to be talking about the films extremely strong feminist underpinnings, which for me was pretty much the film’s main through line. I could probably go on for pages about how damn relevant I found it’s themes (strangely prescient really, it seems completely inline with events of the last few months), but what I’m dying to see now is if anyone else got anything similar from it? Cause all I see everyone talking about is Daniel Day Lewis, and great as he is he isn’t even the main-fucking-character fer crissakes!

    All this to say I found the film a quantum leap forward for PTA, whose filmography up until now has been a bit of a sausage fest.
