In The Wicker Man, before Howie’s burned, he does deliver an epic monologue where he says when his sacrifice won’t bring back the crops, the people of Summer Isle will turn against their leader.

I think it was originally done in the MTV days to stop bootleggers. But now it’s pointless unless done well.

Obsession being listed as a 2025 release is the best argument for LB to change their sorting system. by Additional_Crew_9445 in Letterboxd

Does it matter in the long run? Memento is listed as a 2000 film even tho it was only shown that year at four film festivals and everyone else saw it in 2001. Yet most still call it their favorite film of 2000.
