Pope Leo XIV Talks Movies To A-List Crowd At Vatican: Read His Speech Pope Leo XIV Talks Movies To A-List Crowd At Vatican: Read His Speech

The logic of algorithms tends to repeat what “works,” but art opens up what is possible. Not everything has to be immediate or predictable. Defend slowness when it serves a purpose, silence when it speaks and difference when evocative. Beauty is not just a means of escape; it is above all an invocation. When cinema is authentic, it does not merely console, but challenges. It articulates the questions that dwell within us, and sometimes, even provokes tears that we did not know we needed to express.

Some inspiring words on cinema in the streaming era from the Pope.

Yes, THAT Pope.

YouTube video by Giant Bomb We Saw Valve's New Steam Frame VR Headset, Steam Machine "Console", and More!

some real good ol’ fashioned Giant Bomb foolishness here

hate to say it but i think i need Pluribus to be a hair more plot-y. need a bit more in the way of stakes and little less in the way of conversations about how the world works and what the rules are

Yotei wrapped. loved it. hits the beats you’d expect but is really endearing and sweet about it. wolf is a lock for best new character. that’s my dude

hoping this makes it so the game’s last stretch is less of a combat gauntlet

dunno if i can say this with my full chest, but in the moment, playing it, i think i enjoy the 3D Kirby game more than any Mario since Galaxy

i just know, in my heart of hearts, that my pal Mario would never call anything “trash”. it’s not his way
