“Holy shit! That was the best film I’ve ever seen!” Daisy shouted the second the screen faded to black. “Language!” Mom scolded, shooting Daisy a sharp look. “We talked about this, Daisy. You need to control how you express yourself better. You’re not a kid anymore.” Daisy rolled her eyes and gave Mom a defiant stare before turning to me, throwing her hands up in frustration. “See what I have to deal with? On top of schoolwork, Zach’s nonsense, and now Mom too. You and Zach say…- 259.9 K • Ongoing
- Chicago Sun-Times — Review by Roger Ebert is a surprising entry into the growing slasher genre, one that demonstrates far more craft than its lurid premise might suggest. While clearly inspired by the success of , the film distinguishes itself through confident direction and an unexpectedly effective narrative misdirection. The film’s greatest strength lies in its manipulation of audience expectations. By positioning one character as a likely suspect, only to subvert that assumption in a…

- Gene Siskel didn’t have high expectations when he received an invitation to the premiere of . The reason was simple: had been such a big hit two years ago that copies were bound to follow. This happens with every film that becomes a major success, whether it’s comedy, romance, tragedy, sci-fi, or even horror. Slasher horror, especially, makes copying easier because it can be made cheaply and quickly. If is a hit, more copies and inspirations of the movie will permeate Hollywood. “What do you…

- “Congratulations on the success of , Noah.” “Thank you, David,” I said, nodding gratefully at him. It felt strange to be meeting David Letterman during his first year hosting a talk show on NBC. The 1980s were a very different time for talk shows compared to what I remembered from the 2020s. The ruler of the industry was undoubtedly Johnny Carson, whom I badly wanted to interview with. Unfortunately, Carson wasn’t interested. I wasn’t big enough for his time. Something similar happened…

- “I just don’t understand what her problem is!” the man standing across from me shouted, pointing at the girl behind me. “She seemed desperate to fuck with the film. She was told we’d provide whatever she wanted to help her ease into the interview, but this is not acceptable at all. I will fuck...” “Hey!” I cut in before the conversation could get any more heated. “Asshole. Fuck off before I decide I don’t want to do any interviews for this film either.” “But Noah—” he…

- “I’m Acacia.” The hot Greek girl offered me her hand. “And you are?” I turned her hand over and placed a soft kiss on the back of it. “Noah.” She grinned and looked back at her friends, who all giggled at the gesture. “Alright then.” I motioned toward the area where they wanted us to shoot. “Let me go get my friends. Fair warning, they don’t know any Greek.” “We’ll manage,” Acacia replied in her heavily accented English. With that said, I headed back to my…

- “What is your favorite ride?” I didn’t have to think too much about the question. “I like speed, reliability, great engineering, and style.” Then I patted the hood of the Porsche 911 we were standing in front of. “This beauty gives me all of that in one.” The man interviewing me, Rafe, nodded in agreement. “Can’t deny that. So, is this truly your first car?” “I never said that.” I immediately shook my head. “As much as I would’ve loved to get this as my first car, I…

The ceremony began as usual, with a video recap of all the major movies released that year. I leaned closer to Scarlett and whispered, “Keep in mind the Academy unofficially asked me to host this year. Apparently, they wanted some young talent to boost the younger audience members.” “You shouldn’t have declined,” she whispered back. “It would’ve been so cool to see you up on stage.” “Any other year, I might’ve considered it, but not this one. Not when Harry Potter is so favored…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
- I was sleeping peacefully after what felt like a very long time. My nights alone in hotel rooms might be good, but nothing beat sleeping next to Scarlett after an intense night of lovemaking. I reached out, expecting to feel her beside me, but all I found was an empty bed. She must've gotten up early to play with the kids. She'd arrived home a full day after me, so I'd had quite a bit of time alone with the twins. With that thought in mind, I didn't pay it much attention and went back to doing…

- “Troy!” Anne Hathaway came running up to me in her Catwoman costume and then did something unexpected. She hugged me. I hugged her back instinctively and said, “Nice to meet you too, Annie. Not that I’m complaining, but did I do something to warrant this hug?” She pulled away with stars in her eyes. “I binged yesterday. The whole season. And I’m absolutely in love with the series. It’s undoubtedly my new favorite TV show right now. I can’t wait for the next season to drop. Please…
