Itβs not the pilotβs job to remember cosplay Barbieβs blankie.
Was reminded of this recently. Phenomenal

My latest Substack newsletter is live and gives some much deserved love to Michael Cimino's YEAR OF THE DRAGON (1985).

Sold! I was already looking forward to this.

I reviewed the BFI blu-ray last year, and it's a poetic vampire story partly filmed in the beautiful town of LΓΌbeck. 4/5

Forbidden Planet titles
Star Wars titles
π§΅I watched Forbidden Planet last night. Hadn't seen it for decades. A super-intelligent race is destroyed, despite its technological advances, by its own subconscious primitive fears and greed, 'the monster of the ID'. Hashtag AI, etc.
Anyway, couldn't help but notice how the film influenced others.
Why are some clips auto playing volume now? Bloody annoying.

This thread about Edge of Darkness and the clever comments made politely by bright and funny people is what I always hope the social media experience will be like, but which happens oh so rarely. You're great. Thank you. Have a biscuit. x
