INTERVIEW OF
10
BY LCDR
11 Q. So how did you get yourself started into submersible
12 operations?
13
A.
Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic.
When I
14
set down the path to make that film, the first thing that I did
15
was arrange to be introduced to the head of the submersible
16
program at the P.P. Shirshov Institute in Moscow, a guy named
17|
Professor
I. I did that through a mutual friend
18
of ours, a guy named
, who is one of the preeminent
underwater cinematographers in the world. And had been on a
20
submersible expedition out to Titanic the previous year with the
21
Russians. And that was organized by a Canadian company that was
22 doing an IMAX film which was released under the title Titanica.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

Good times seeing the mighty Bury Tomorrow live in Glasgow again.

Theyโ€™re always a treat. One of the best metal bands going today.

I recently wrote a feature for Lock-On where I interviewed the heads at Acquire about their time developing the first two games.

I mean, Berserk may be my favourite book series ever, but even that started on a shaky first volume. Chainsaw Man just went out the gate knowing exactly what it wanted to be ๐Ÿ‘

Iโ€™m only three volumes in and the characters are so well defined from the jump, and it established that sense of not all being as it seems early on ๐Ÿ‘€

I watched episodes one of the anime too, really good ๐Ÿ˜ณ

A fellow Tenchu fan I see! Yeah it really embodies the series well. Sure it looks murky as all hell, but it still plays fine to me :D

Oho! I had no idea about that ๐Ÿ˜ณ I havenโ€™t been to a library in so long, that really sounds like a nice thing.

Some nice 2010s โ€˜double-aโ€™ goodness in the mail today. Despite their flaws, I love them both.

Absolutely gross that your writer has taken glee in puppeteering a dead actor like this. Utterly shameful.
