neutral · AI labelView post →Hey tell me one good thing you're into right now; music, tv, film, art - what's your jam? Let's forget The Horrors for a brief moment. Poker Face S2 is giving me the comfort TV I was after. Your turn.
positive · AI labelView post →I have always been hardcore against the idea of anybody ever remaking The Princess Bride. The movie is perfect. except... The other day we were talking about Columbo/Poker Face and I brought up the idea of Natasha Lyonne playing the grandpa part in Princess Bride and now I do kinda want that.
neutral · AI labelView post →I spent a lot of time, and had a lot of fun, putting together this elaborate / sprawling / galaxy-brained list of movies you should watch after this season of POKER FACE, inspired by cameos, references, and, of course, MICHAEL CLAYTON. at @vulture.com: www.vulture.com/article/poke...
neutral · AI labelView post →A short and sweet little radio chat about the latest episode of Poker Face that I directed… 📻♠️🤪🍀 www.ktep.org/show/on-film...
neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight’s Film Selection🍿🎥🎬: Instead of a film tonight, I think I’ll watch some episodes of “Columbo”. (Rian Johnson’s inspiration for “Poker Face”) Doesn’t matter how many times I’ve watched them, they never fail to entertain! #TonightsFilmSelection
neutral · AI labelView post →Know what makes any film or TV project infinitely cooler & more interesting? Yes! It's having Natasha Lyonne in the cast. POKER FACE, Season Two...I'm waiting! Happy Birthday to a true original, 4/4/1979! #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞
neutral · AI labelView post →Been waiting for this: @sepinwall.bsky.social x @rianjohnson.bsky.social on S2 of POKER FACE...and a million other things. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...
neutral · AI labelView post →the baseball episode ties it all together, POKER FACE is Let's Remember Some Guys but for film and tv
positive · AI labelView post →Contax G2 spotted in Poker Face. (Although they're using it while shooting a movie set in 1973. Is it a clue?)
neutral · AI labelView post →My mom asked me the other day if we had started season 2 of Poker Face and I said “No, we’re not watching it because Natasha Lyonne is directing a movie written by AI.” and she said “Good, I was go to tell you to skip it anyway because it’s bad.”
negative · AI labelView post →Cole Escola if you're reading this, as you're writing the Miss Piggy movie, you should include a musical number where she sings Poker Face, but it's Porker Face. But like not earnestly, in like your double-ironic aloof style so the audience knows none of this is serious
neutral · AI labelView post →Thank you for the birthday well wishes. You guys are the best. I’m resting up and catching up on season 2 of “Poker Face.” Movie-wise, I just watched the new 4K disc of the Rutger Hauer flick “Salute of the Jugger/The Blood of Heroes” which is so good it might by my disc of the year. So,
positive · AI labelView post →For anyone currently watching the second season of Poker Face, episode 7 is fantastic, and a love letter to the film 'Heat'.
positive · AI labelView post →Funny thing about shows like Poker Face and the Bear is recognisably having like, film twitter brained people as a Type of Guy in the same sense 1960s TV had beatnik coded characters
neutral · AI labelView post →Really considering skipping season 2 of Poker Face now. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...
negative · AI labelView post →I really liked AMERICANA, a crime movie/contemporary western starring Sydney Sweeney, Paul Walter Hauser, Halsey and Zahn McClarnon. Writer/director Tony Tost was one of the showrunners of Poker Face, if that helps get you interested.
neutral · AI labelView post →This week's POKER FACE is in some ways one big game of "spot the movie reference." But thanks to the performances (especially the villain of the week Sam Richardson), I found it to be a funny and melancholy look at how dumb reality gets in the way of Hollywood endings. www.avclub.com/poker-face-r...
neutral · AI labelView post →I mean, I'm glad they're doing AI without the copyright violations but she could also just... make a fucking movie. She's directed RUSSIAN DOLL and POKER FACE and ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK episodes already! She has directing experience!
neutral · AI labelView post →Sorry my friends, I'll avoid that Natasha Lyonne AI movie like the plague but there's no amount of shaming you can send my way that's going to stop me from watching Season 2 of Poker Face. 😂
positive · AI labelView post →Like, I really want to watch and enjoy the new Poker Face but also I can’t get the taste of enthusiasm for a shitty AI-assisted movie outta my mouth, ya know?
neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched the Poker Face episode with Nick Nolte and Tim Russ, the Ray Harryhausen homage. They did the thing! With the film grain! Before the stop motion happens! Literally wriggling in my seat with happiness.
positive · AI labelView post →This was James Ransone ' s final film appearance before his suicide. As was an episode of Poker Face was his final television appearance a few months prior. #BlackPhone2 (2025) 📞 💀🎩 ☎️ #FrightClub
neutral · AI labelView post →Stating that she loves Rian Johnson, Peter Dinklage, and Poker Face itself, Lyonne added, "If I don’t make a movie before I die, I’ll be very bummed out." www.avclub.com/natasha-lyon...
neutral · AI labelView post →Okay I have now watched all of Knives Out (the first one). Great fun. I might like Rian Johnson kind of a lot actually. It was especially interesting watching this film AFTER having watched two full seasons of Poker Face.
positive · AI labelView post →homie... what? I am *inordinately* attached to Poker Face. I think Johnson is doing good work in re-energising the old formulas of mystery film & TV. I even have an entire essay about how Charlie Cale is secretly a JoJo's character. But he could just put Dinklage in... another thing.
positive · AI labelView post →If you get Peacock, so you can watch this game, check out the Day of the Jackal (series based on the Jackal movie with Richard Gere and Bruce Willis) and Poker Face. Day of the Jackal is a great spy/assassin series. Poker Face is a quirky comedy.
neutral · AI labelView post →Looking forward to a cozy night. Gonna have a shower, get a wee takeaway & watch the new episode of Poker Face! Then a wee late night film 28 Days Later In prep for the new one! 🍛📺🎬🍿
positive · AI labelView post →I'm pretty impressed at how Natasha Lyonne's dumb AI movie thingy means I haven't heard a single goddamned peep from ANYBODY about that new season of Poker Face.
neutral · AI labelView post →movie plans didn’t come together, so i split the difference and put on a new episode of Poker Face Simon Rex!!!
neutral · AI labelView post →You know you're a film nerd when you shout "John Sayles!" when John Sayles appears onscreen in the new episode of POKER FACE.
neutral · AI labelView post →Let's see, what media am I holding on for? New seasons of Leverage Redemption, Poker Face, Andor, and Strange New Worlds. A new Benoit Blanc movie. I'm curious about some new shows and movies. It's so hard to care about anything, but I'm trying to find things to care about.
neutral · AI labelView post →Poker Face was like "this is in the vein of NBC Mystery Movie shows like Columbo but with it's own twist". Elsbeth on CBS is just like "what if we just do Columbo". Elsbeth is more of a Columbo show than Mrs. Columbo.
neutral · AI labelView post →Special award to Poker Face for casting John Sayles, the writer of THE killer alligator movie, in their alligator episode.
neutral · AI labelView post →Up to Season 3 of Luther. Just 10 more episodes and a movie then I can get stuck in to Andor, Poker Face etc
neutral · AI labelView post →I said a few times that I wanted to see S. Epatha Merkerson from LAW & ORDER headline a horror movie, but then POKER FACE also did a fantastic job of using her out-of-character. Cecily Strong as a stalker and serial killer. Jennifer Garner as a sociopathic assassin with a Stepford Wife cover.

neutral · AI labelView post →This is a distraction: my review of this week’s heist-movie-heavy episode of Poker Face at Episodic Medium: open.substack.com/pub/episodic...
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah, Rian Johnson is the writer-director on "Poker Face" and he's cited "Columbo" as an inspiration. The yellow text of the opening credits is one of the biggest giveaways/homages! He also wrote and directed the "Knives Out" movie series. 🔪 #ColumboTV
neutral · AI labelView post →Highly recommend the stop-motion episode of Peacock's Poker Face where Phil Tippett's current work is front and center in an episode that Natasha Lyonne directed and co-wrote. The master still making magic; my SYFY WIRE interview with Tippett: www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/ph...
positive · AI labelView post →Finishing the movie today. There are some very lovely moments and great acting but it still feels like a very long Poker Face episode.
neutral · AI labelView post →I have a cousin my parents generation who has become a TV/Film background actor in his retirement. He worked on Poker Face & Happy Gilmore 2 recently and that sounds like such a fun way to spend some of your time!
neutral · AI labelView post →Not subscribing to Netflix just for WWE. Ironically, got grandfathered in to Peacock bc of my WWE Network subscription and now won't cancel it bc Law & Order, NFL, Poker Face, good movie selection, etc. etc...🤼
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh, nice. I remember back in the 1980s having to shop at Script City to get samples of tv and film scripts to learn format & pacing. Now, I can go to Rian Johnson's website, there's Knives Out, there's Poker Face, just there for downloading.
neutral · AI labelView post →I ran out characters to convey this in the previous post, but K Callan is still very much with us and still performing! She's filming a movie right now at 89. She was in two movies last year and was on Poker Face the year before.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Lowdown is aces and extremely my jam. Like somebody put Justified, Terriers, Poker Face, and a Coen movie into a blender and made some magic.
neutral · AI labelView post →AMERICANA is a pretty darn good film...great first film by a long time writer of some of my favorite shows (Poker Face, Longmire). Highly recommend. And not just because it has Zahn McClarnon in it.
neutral · AI labelView post →Our look at season 2 of Poker Face continues with Last Looks. Charlie has a brush with death as she corpses on film and meets a man with a macbre line of momentos.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Armour-Stiner Octagon House in Irvington, New York. Seen in POKER FACE Season 2, Ep. 2, and also the setting for the 1981 horror film THE NESTING featuring Gloria Grahame. Photo from October 2020.
neutral · AI labelView post →She's making either a film or TV show next with AI. Which is a pity because Russian Doll & Poker Face own, she's gone right down in my estimation.
positive · AI labelView post →This season on Poker Face: Every week we will have at least two phenomenal guest stars and one reference to a 70's film that you're pretty sure you recognize but have to double check.
neutral · AI labelView post →That first episode of Poker Face season 2 is so freaking good. It’s like a little mini Knives Out movie wrapped inside a an episode of Columbo starring Natasha Lyonne
positive · AI labelView post →We're enjoying the film APOCALYPSE CLOWNS. We think Funzo the Street Clown could lead a great detective mystery series, along the lines of Poker Face
neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight’s TV Selection📺: Instead of a film, I thought I’d rewatch some episodes of Rian Johnson’s brilliant “Poker Face”. Born from his love for “Columbo” (one of my top faves ever) it showcases Natasha Lyonne and like “Columbo”, features really cool guest stars. If you haven’t yet, check it out!
positive · AI labelView post →For the Colombo vibe, have you watched Poker Face?
neutral · AI labelView post →Rewatched “Knives Out: Wake Up Dead Man” last night and it reminded me of the cool friendship between director Rian Johnson and actor Noah Segan since they met during Johnson’s directorial debut “Brick” (GREAT little film) in 2005. Segan’s been in every Johnson film since and twice in “Poker Face”.

neutral · AI labelView post →Letterboxd Last Eight Watched. Been on an Early Jamie Lee Curtis kick, so I watched Road Games, though it's mostly a Stacey Keach film. Loved it! Also glad to catch up with Deep Cover. And Americana, from Poker Face S2 showrunner, deserves more of an audience. Highest 2 Lowest: tinyurl.com/ya4we92j
neutral · AI labelView post →I had never thought even once about watching Michael Clayton until the Poker Face bit calling it the perfect film, so I added it to my list.
