This year's Cannes line-up is drool-worthy.

Exited to see the new movie of Andrea Arnold there...

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

This sounds exhausting

Fox ended its Thursday CinemaCon presentation with a surprise guest: James Cameron.

He announced that there will be four Avatar sequels, not the three previously planned. “We have decided to embark on a truly massive cinematic process,” he said.

Cameron said as he was planning the three sequels, he found it limiting. “We began to bump up against the limitations for our art form,” he said, explaining that he decided he would need more sequels to tell the whole story.

He said each of the four sequels will be able to stand alone, but will together create a saga. His goal is to release Avatar 2 at Christmas 2018 and the a new film in 2020, 2021 and 2022.

He's basically hiding from Star Wars and I can't blame him. The first avatar was a game changer in cinema experience terms but it doesn't stand up even now for home viewing and it's a weak story.

That sounds horrible.

I liked when his ex wife beat him out for best picture. That was funny.

I laughed

Unsurprisingly crappy choice. I tried watching The Impossible recently and got bored quickly. You really gotta suck to make a movie about a tsunami boring.

I'd get excited for a Jonny Quest movie it I wasn't sure they'd get it wrong.

I am very excited for it, obviously

Harmony Korine made the new Rihanna video. It's basically a mini-sequel to Spring Breakers. And it's fucking fantastic.
