One Night Only is a romcom about a world where pre-marital sex is only legal one night of the year, aka what if the Purge was somehow more religious

Between the 10th anniversary, plus Katie Dipold's phenomenal Widow's Bay, I'm seeing a lot of re-evaluation of 2016's Ghostbusters (Answer The Call). As an adult man who is WAY too into this franchise, I want to add... this movie is a hoot, and got done entirely dirty in 2016.

Hell of a career, and by all accounts a remarkably kind person. RIP, Sam Neill
A maniacal billionaire retweeting a platform owned by another maniacal billionaire, promoting a propaganda film portraying an trust fund millionaire (played by a real life trust fund millionaire) doing extrajudicial murders of "evil Muslim invaders assaulting European women". Tech was a mistake.
Republicans “love blue collar working joes”, until that joe actually knows how to do a job correctly.
“I mean, It’s one bag of chips, Michael, how much could it cost? 9 dollars?”
Trump and wealthy creeps like him are already able to evade audits indefinitely, but Trump knows his sons are SO inept that he’s like “I gotta write this into law”.
Yeah dude! We full on watched Kristen Stewart host (the dress rehearsal) of SNL.
Watched the first 3 eps of Wonder Man tonight, and it’s my favorite Marvel thing in a minute. It’s giving dryly hilarious FX series about Hollywood struggles that only occasionally mentions superpowers. Also reminds me a bit of Slings & Arrows (a huge compliment).
It’s serving “NPH in Starship Troopers for people who didn’t understand how they were costumed like Nazis”
Absolutely torn through SLOW HORSES since starting in November, and s5 is my favourite yet: a season that explores endless hilarious new angles on Roddy Ho, while confirming that he has absolutely no hidden depth.
2026 is already an exhausting tire fire. Here's my favourite movies I saw for the first time in 2025 (no particular order):
It was part of our graduating year, and I was desperate to prove myself as "the funny guy". I got the lead, and it was the first time in my life that I "won" something I'd gone after. Great production, tons of laughs, and made me believe in myself just enough to pursue this as a living. Thanks, Tom.
