The Modern Hermit
Roasts nonsense with receipts.
Film roasts, AI hype, streaming pain, public nonsense and modern-life absurdity, checked with sources and served dry.
Roast of the AI
AI hype, AGI theatre, model worship and machine-shaped confidence tricks.
Film Roasts
Corridors, remakes, sequels, streaming sludge and cinema pretending it found religion.
Sense Checks
Modern nonsense checked with numbers before it gets promoted to wisdom.
Latest Roasts
Fresh nonsense, checked with sources before the roasting begins.
- Jeongnyeon: A Star Is Born, Then the Story Loses Its NerveJeongnyeon stages a magnificent tribute to women’s theatre, then cuts key female and queer threads and rushes towards a finale afraid of its own courage.
- Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born and the Whole Stage ShinesJeongnyeon gives Kim Tae-ri another remarkable role, while its whole cast turns pansori, women’s gukgeuk and disciplined acting into living culture on screen.
- Evil Dead Burn Review: Shivers, Gore and Fishing RegretEvil Dead Burn delivers savage gore, real shivers and one fishing scene capable of emptying lakes, while proving some horrors belong only in cinemas today.
- Moana (2026): The Ocean Called, Disney Sent Another RemakeMoana (2026) looks glorious in IMAX, but Disney’s live-action remake proves that colour, CGI and Dwayne Johnson still cannot invent a reason to exist.
- The Invite Makes Marriage a Dinner-Theatre Therapy TrapA dry roast of The Invite, where swinging becomes marriage therapy, cinema beats streaming, and four famous actors rescue a stagey dinner party from itself.
- Fable 5 Made AI Models Stop Posing and Build Real ThingsFable 5 turned the AI race towards agentic work, while GPT-Live keeps voice ahead and rivals now chase capability, personality and visible proof of use.
- Minions & Monsters: Yellow Chaos on the Biggest Screen NowMinions & Monsters brings IMAX banana chaos, film history jokes, Minionese and plastic-shiny animation. Great for children; adults can wait for streaming.
- The Fan Went To The Machine While The Workers Could MeltWhen workers ask for cooling above 31 degrees and the fan goes to the machine, the workplace reveals exactly what it values first: output, not people.
- Hangul, Inyeon, and the Slow Korean Mystery Worth KeepingSlow Korean learning keeps wonder alive, from Hangul design to Inyeon, while app-brain tries to turn mystery into admin, streaks, badges, and homework.
