Right now there’s a lot of articles about how 2025 US total box office so far proves movies are in decline. It’s mostly bullshit. The real story of 2025 is original movies audiences want to see are doing individually far better than anyone expected, and studios seem to not know, or what people want…

Before I used Letterboxd, I kept a film journal where I’d jot down the title, current date, and brief thoughts, if any. I never assigned a rating to anything. When I joined LB, I viewed it as a version of that journal. Nothing against anyone who uses it, the star rating scale just isn’t for me.

I agree. It’s disingenuous. Twitter is well past its prime, but it didn’t get to its peak overnight. I remember when Twitter was basically the text-only version of Facebook status updates.

I’m so sorry, Dalia. That’s awful. I dealt with that with a friend group. They didn’t care that it happened, just that I said something.

one thing I do hate about the experience of going viral on here as opposed to Old Twitter is that the thing that makes you mute a post on here is a flood of non sequitur replies from people with poor reading comprehension, which is somehow endlessly more frustrating than threats and insults

Yes, I want justice and equity. All I’m saying is that your anger is justified, and please stay. You should fight for everyone. Even if it’s persisting out of spite, stay with us.

"You work in healthcare? What's the craziest thing you've seen?" I don't know man, but it's probably RFK Jr and this administration cutting vaccine funding, firing top health officials and scientists, linking fake studies to support "wellness" BS, letting children die of measles, shall I go on?

as far as i can tell the primary purpose of this site is that someone i know posts that they're watching a movie and if i've seen it i reply "nice, hell yeah" and if i haven't seen it I reply "whoa this looks cool". that's pretty much all you need
