I watched about 50 minutes of "Send Help" (2026), and I gave up because it's just another stuck-on-a-desert-island movie. I keep waiting for it to turn into something else since it was made by Sam Raimi, but except for a few scenes that seem to be too gory, there doesn't seem to be anything special about this movie. It has all been done before.
A man and a woman get stuck on a deserted island, but this time it's the woman who is handy in survival skills while the guy is not. But even that has been done before, so this is not enough to validate this movie's existence. That's why I kept expecting it to turn into something else, but it keeps failing me.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

The Bride! (2026). On the one hand, it was an absolutely stupid concept. But on the other hand, it was executed very badly. Utter dreck.
