Full commentary (alongside The Serpent’s Skin) on The Arts Fuse
The fact this is so clearly Louise Weard’s response to Envy/Desire. Even funnier to watch a week out from Bryon-gate. Everyone in this situation is wrong!!! Don’t go home and look at American Eagle ads! Avalon Fast 2026 MVP! Everyone get more empathetic right fucking now!!!
Likely the best film adaptation you’ll see this month about BDSM antics directed by a generational benefactor of British wealth, and only the second best film releasing this week about two gay guys and their dysfunctional relationship. The real fujo bait offering of February 2026 goes to Matt Johnson. Good effort though Mr. Lighton. Let’s keep making Harry Melling do gay shit to piss Rowling off.
“Where normal people have a heart, Neil McCormick has a bottomless black hole. And if you don't watch out, you can fall in and get lost forever.”

I’ve seen multiple comparisons to 2001 — are you out of your goddamn minds!!!!!??? Nobody is allowed to criticize Sinners for having “too many endings” anymore after this. What a fucking slog. Castro shouldn’t have stopped short at just taking Grandpa Lord’s plantations away.
I love this version of Cinderella, she's a dirty little gremlin who runs around shooting crows with a crossbow and she calls the prince an asshole. The caucasity of this bitch! We have to stan!
