Hey, here’s a good idea:
Instead of tweeting about some guy who dropped a bullshit hot take on a filmmaker who isn’t even alive to defend himself, how about showing some love to writers who actually have some worthy things to say about cinema?
LIKE ME, FOR EXAMPLE!!!

Fuck it — I’ll get the ball rolling:
I love @BilgeEbiri, his freakin’ cat and his knack for reminding us of past summer movies that didn’t suck. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vulture.com/amp/2020/05/watch-the-mask-of-zorro-vultures-friday-night-movie-pick.html">https://www.google.com/amp/s/www...

When @angelicabastien is fed the fuck up with something, she lets you know. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vulture.com/amp/2020/09/antebellum-movie-review-i-am-tired-of-films-like-this.html">https://www.google.com/amp/s/www...
Every though I write for dude every once in a while for @CrookedMarquee, I still would’ve included @jasondashbailey for showing love to all the other gangster flicks that came out at the same time as GOODFELLAS. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2020/09/16/movies/goodfellas-godfather.amp.html">https://www.google.com/amp/s/www...
@mangiotto has been through a lot of shit, and it continues to amaze me how he can lay it all out on the page like that. https://www.filmfreakcentral.net/ffc/2020/09/mulan-2020.html">https://www.filmfreakcentral.net/ffc/2020/...
Me and @mattzollerseitz don’t agree on a lot these days, but this review tickled the hell outta me. This has gotta be the most I’m-too-old-for-this-shit review I’ve ever read. https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/irresistible-movie-review-2020">https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/i...
Every once in a while, @ElvisMitchell comes outta hiding and drops a whopper. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/aug/31/chadwick-boseman-black-pride">https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp...
The more y’all keep acting like @gemko ain’t all that, the more he keeps dropping goodies like this. https://www.google.com/amp/s/film.avclub.com/why-didn-t-we-get-more-comedies-pairing-chevy-chase-and-1844336969/amp">https://www.google.com/amp/s/fil...
Me and @nathanrabin roasted this movie on a podcast, but he really had a lot more to say about this bullshit. https://www.nathanrabin.com/happy-place/2020/7/16/dogs-of-bore-case-file-166the-travoltacage-project-32-eyes-of-an-angel-1991">https://www.nathanrabin.com/happy-pla...
It’s gotten to the point where it I gotta be in a right frame of mind to read @odienator, because I know there are gonna be points where I’ll be like, “Shit, why didn’t I think of that?” https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/da-5-bloods-movie-review-2020">https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/d...
Finally, there’s my common-law husband @SeanMBurns. I’ve known this dude for a long gotdamn time and his pieces still clobber me. https://www.wbur.org/artery/2020/05/15/quarantine-double-feature-california-split-saint-jack">https://www.wbur.org/artery/20...
If I’ve missed other people, my apologies. Then again, if you know of any writers who deserve some love, why don’t you set things off by GIVING THEM SOME LOVE!
I almost forgot about the adorable @jshawhan and his knack for reminding us of summer films that failed — but still deserve another look. https://www.nashvillescene.com/arts-culture/film/article/21138793/underrated-scifi-altmans-best-and-a-classic-murder-mystery-now-available-to-stream">https://www.nashvillescene.com/arts-cult...
