One of these days I won't be desperately behind on everything -- here's a fun fact: I'll actually be here at my desk all day tomorrow! But today is not that day so here are the photos of Jonny Bailey for Time magazine that dropped... some time this week. Hell it may've even been yesterday -- I have no concept of time right now. Or Time Magazine either! Wow really set myself up for that one. Y'all I'm so fucking tired. Hit the jump for the rest...

Yes It's the Pillion Trailer
Yesterday I shared the first pair of posters for Pillion with you and now -- yes a few hours late but whatever, I'm busy! -- we've got the trailer! The responsible portion of me feels the need to say what Pillion is about every time I post about Pillion but I've posted about Pillion a billion (heh rhymes) times now and I think y'all know that this is the movie where Alexander Skarsgard takes Harry melling on as his sub boy. Anyway as I also said yesterday my review of this from NYFF is incoming and I'll link to that when "incoming" has actually "come" but for now, do watch:
I'm actually surprised A24 already dropped this trailer since the movie's not in theaters until February, but hey -- nobody's gonna complain about some of Alexander's cum-gutters hitting any ol' day, I think. Not here on this website anyway.
Good Morning, World
Yes it's another day where I'm in NYFF screenings this morning and prepping this post the night before -- so goes the busy active lifestyle of a big man on the move y'all! I'm so goddamned hip I can hardly stand it. But not too hip to share these new Tyriq Withers photos with you (via) -- never too hip for that. Anyway I'll be in proper this afternoon -- until then hit the jump for these Tyriq flavored treats...

Aldis Sure Ain't Gonna Show You His Dick
I didn't even really like the Road House remake in the first place -- although it has shown itself to be fun to re-watch pieces of while doing something else in the time since it was released, and really isn't that how these streaming movies are intended to be consumed? -- but that was never going to keep me from documenting every tidbit of the sequel to the remake since Jake will be coming back. And now, NOW, they have gone and cast sexy-ass Aldis Hodge opposite him. I mean good lord! How much hotness can one small screen hold? I guess we're about to find out. Hopefully Aldis shares Billy Magnusson's predilection for black speedos from the first film? Is that too much to ask? No idea if Aldis will be the villain or maybe he'll be the Sam Elliott type from the original movie -- one of Jake's old UFC buddies who comes to help him kick ass. (In black speedos? Stay tuned.) Anyway I think I forgot to report that Guy Ritchie had to drop out of directing this, and now Ilya Naishuller the guy who made the wild first-person action flick Hardcore Henry from 2015, as well as that Nobody movie with Bob Odenkirk (never saw it), is taking over. And no offense to Mr. Naishuller but this sounds far far less gay than whatever Guy Ritchie would've come up -- sigh!

A Pair of Pillion Posters
A24 dropped two posters for their forthcoming Gay BDSM Romance Pillion today -- one featuring star Alexander Skarsgård seen above and one featuring star Harry Melling on, you know, the bottom. Heheh see what I did there? Sso clever. So naughty! That's me in a nutshell. Aaaanyway they're also promising the first trailer will drop tomorrow so I imagine you should stay tuned. And you should likewise stay tuned because this movie screens at NYFF this Thursday and Friday and there might just be a review from yours truly dropping shortly. Just saying! Get your nutshells ready.
Charlie Hunnam Six Times
When I posted the trailer for the sexy serial killer program starring Naked Charlie Hunnam as Ed Gein I got accused in the comments of running "a porn site" for trotting alongside Ryan Murphy by participating in the objectification of real world horrors... which, okay. Ain't nobody got time for placating some stranger's moral lines in the sand today. I see a hot Charlie Hunnam, I post a hot Charlie Hunnam. This show is just clearly going to be very silly nonsense and I don't think it's worth getting that worked up over. To paraphrase one of the models in an early season of America's Next Top Model, in other people's countries there are war. On that note this new shoot for Variety has me feeling fine! Not in the least morally questionable, but perhaps a little porographic down below, ahem. Hit the jump for the rest of them...
Good Morning, World
Instead of posting today's "Good Morning" post a little late like I did yesterday when I got to my desk from a NYFF press screening I'm doing this one in advance -- so yes I lied when I said "yesterday" since I am actually writing this yesterday to you people of the future. Anyway point being Tuesday morning I'm at another screening but I'll be back to my desk by Noon-ish again, so here to tide you over are a pair of new photo-shoots of The Long Walk actor and freshly minted MNPP obsession Garrett Wareing, including a few more from this shoot I shared back on the 11th. I have yet to see The Long Walk but I'm assuming it'll hit digital before Halloween and it will make a good get-in-the-mood movie right? I mean the Halloween mood, not the horned up mood, although judging by all the set photos that Garrett's shared of himself shirtless in suspenders it'll probably be a bit of both. Anyway a good Tuesday morning to you, and now you may hit the jump for a dozen more...

Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...
... you can learn from:
Bronson (2008)
Bronson: How would you feel, waking up in the morning without a window? My window is a steel grid, I 'ave to put my lips against that steel grid and suck in air, that's my morning... 'cause I got no air in my cell. I have to eat, sleep and crap in that room twenty-three hours of a twenty-four hour day. You tell me, what human being deserves that? Apart from the stinking paedophile or a child killer. I don't deserve that, I done nothing on this planet to deserve that. My bed is four inches off the floor, it's a concrete bed, my toilet hasn't even got a seat on it or a lid, and I 'ave to live like this month after month after month, and the way it's looking it's year after year after year. Now is that's right then so be, but let somebody else 'ave a fucking go at it, 'cause I've had twenty-six years of this bollocks and it's time to come out, and I want the jury at my trial to come and see how I'm living. But I'm not living, I'm existing.
A very happy 55 to our beloved neon mad genius Nicholas Winding Refn today! This is a good moment to remind us all that we will be getting a new movie from him next year -- I told you about his film Her Private Hell back in April when Charles Melton joined the cast, but by all accounts they've already filmed the thing so I'm assuming a next year release. It also stars current it girl Sophie Thatcher (of Companion and Heretic and Yellowjackets fame), plus Drive My Car hunk Hidetoshi Nishijima, Diego Calva, Kristine Froseth, Dougray Scott, and Havana Rose Liu from Bottoms and Lurker. This is one drop-dead gorgeous cast y'all. Can't wait for NWR to douse them all with blood and glitter.

Good (Late) Morning, World
Hey you people, happy Monday -- I'm back from an early morning screening at NYFF and figured since it's Noon-ish when I'm sitting down I could get away with a late "morning" post for those lucky people out there who get to sleep in. Me I've been running non-stop for days, weeks, months, I have no idea any more. But there new photos of Italian stallion Michele Morrone made themselves known to me over the weekend and they compliment that big batch I dropped back in June...
... especially the gay-ish ones, which I also shared a few of back then. Anyway these fresh ones are probably here right now because a book of photos of Michele is coming out in October, one I imagine to be stuffed with way more of this sultry goodness. So perhaps a pre-order is in order if he does it for you. If you need to convince yourself either way I recommending you hit the jump and stare at him some more, it helps...

A Brief Interlude
Okay well that's that for this nearly full day of "content" -- I'm running back into the warm embrace of NYFF press screenings now. Tomorrow is the Opening Night of the fest with Luca Guadagnino's After the Hunt opening things up -- my reviews will probably start dropping next week over at Pajiba. See my preview of what I was most looking forward to right here. As for blogging here I'll be offline all day tomorrow, but I'll be back here Monday afternoon. So have a good weekend and if you're in NYC go see something at NYFF! Here's their site! There's a super-mass of incredible international cinema awaiting you. Otherwise -- go see One Battle After Another! Masterpiece, says me!

One Masterpiece After Another
Being a man of mystery (ha) I don't usually let on to my opinions on movies until I drop my full review of them -- the whole "spit out twenty words on social media the second the screening ends" thing is just not for me. I need to marinate in what I just watched -- especially when it's blown my mind. But this time there was enough of a break between the first time I saw Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another and when the social media embargo broke on it that I'd fully formed my opinion that it's a masterpiece (something a second viewing before I wrote my review only underlined) and so this time I did indeed jump on the "screaming my opinion in a few words on social media" bandwagon, as seen down below. (And that post is in actuality an entire thread so click on to read it all at Bluesky if you care for the Cliff's Notes version of my review.) That said my full on review of the film dropped yesterday -- READ IT HERE. There could still be some surprises down the road with movies I haven't seen yet but to be honest I can't imagine anything knocking OBAA off the top of the year right now. It's astonishing filmmaking from PTA. Urgent, funny, political -- if this is the movie that finally gets him on the Oscar stage I don't think anybody could possibly be angry about that. Well except for Republicans. They'll be angry. But when aren't they angry? Fuck those dirty diaper people.
I don't like doing miniature social media "reviews" when embargoes break but ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER is so mind-blowingly good I'm breaking my own rule - I felt like I was levitating upon leaving the theater. As the end credits came up I almost started whooping "CINEMA FUCK YEAH!" at the screen

Théodore Pellerin One Time
(click to embiggen) Obviously I'm hoping that Loewe will drop more photos of actor Théodore Pellerin modeling for them but for now this one of the Lurker actor (via) is making me very happy! In related news -- Lurker is landing on MUBI on October 10th! You should catch it then if you haven't been able to catch it in theaters -- really love that movie.
Great Moments In Movie Staches
Let us take a brief moment today to honor Vincent Cassel's sleazy little stache in Jacques Audiard's terrific little 2001 noir-thriller Read My Lips, which entered the Criterion Collection this week. Sometimes a stache does a lot of heavy lifting and this is very much one of those! You can pick up the movie at this link -- an excellent early Audiard movie, way before he sullied his rep with that Emilia Pérez debacle last year. I hope whatever he works on next is a steering of the ship back into better waters. Give us another Sisters Brothers please.
Which is Hotter?
As soon as I saw the photo on the left of actor, stuntman, and total babe Cameron Brown in the Xenomorph costume for the Alien: Earth series I thought of the legendary photo on the right of actor, stuntman and total babe Ricou Browning doing the same pose in his Creature costume from 1954's Universal monster movie classic Creature From the Black Lagoon -- and thus this poll was born. I finished watching Alien: Earth last night so if y'all want to share your opinions on the show's first season in the comments go to town! I thought it was fine. It didn't blow my mind, honestly -- it's kinda weird when the only character you give a shit about is an extraterrestrial eyeball ya know? But I'll definitely watch a second season. Anyway I recommend following Cameron Brown on Instagram; if you hit the jump I've chosen a few highlights...
Good Morning, World
I was going to post this scorching new photo-shoot of my man Karl Glusman this morning whether I was here at my desk or not -- in case you hadn't noticed I've been off most of this week doing my annual NYFF thing. But I am actually here at my desk for most of today, huzzah, so anticipate some posting! Including a post of these nearly twenty photos of Karl flashing abs like abs are the special of the week, after the jump...

Twas Only a Moment For You

By the time I'm back... uhh Thursday morning...

I love the movies. Oh and as an aside keep an eye on Pajiba because my review of Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another will also be dropping soon and that -- the movie and my review -- is not something you're gonna wanna miss. Anyway bye til later! And don't forget to celebrate this:
HAPPY 30 TO SHOWGIRLS
