I have only played Bloodborne on PS5 and it totally won me over, I'd easily hail it the greatest game I've ever played, so I've not really cared about optimizing it further, but I must admit the video embedded here of the Father Gascoigne battle in 4K/60FPS, that does look sweet.

Honestly this one has to be up/down there with Shape Cast (where we talked about Triangle, Sphere, and Cube) as one of our dumbest themes yet.

Boys On Film - Optimism Vaccine THIS WEEK: It Couldn't Happen Here (1987), Disorderlies (1987) and The Jerky Boys (1995)

New episode! We dig deep into Boys on Film with a rigorously academic slate including all three types of boys: Fat, Jerky, and Pet Shop.

Stella Dallas is a perfect classic movie. Great performances and effortless production telling a story of social eugenics as a mother suffering from a terminal case of being a galoot, sacrifices herself to save her daughter from some mild embarrassment.

They say home ownership is key to the American Dream but if that's the case then why did the HOA meeting clash with a screening of Young Mr. Lincoln.

Defeated this boss using summons. Not really sure how the heck you'd do it otherwise without a lot of luck (mostly in separating them). I did manage to kill the spear dude once on my own but it was nightmarish. Horrible approach to the fight too but now I can warp between bonfires, yay!

Sobering up by grinding a farming route. Only way to go because I've got to the boss and they're way too hard (a duo at Aldor Lando). Gained at least five levels while gradually returning to Earth. Not too shabby.

Got way too drunk/intoxicated at a friend's party and now I'm back home and trying to play Dark Souls and the timing is not working but I am having a good time.

Just passed by my first Waymo today. Noisy, ugly things. What a great addition to the city. And I believe, under IL law they currently have to have a driver. If only there was some other way to have a human in a car drive you around.

Love to check my phone just before going to bed and learn the USA and Israel have started yet another war.

I think he started in two Hellraiser sequels and they were shot simultaneously in Romania. Real magic of the movies stuff. All the glitz and glamor.

That's the one where Pinhead lives in a MMORPG and one of the gamers is a young Henry Cavill. I can't claim it's a hidden gem ripe for rediscovery but I can say with confidence it is a movie that exists.

In Memory Of: Ron Vawtwe, Frank Zappa, Dennis Potter, Albert Collins, Albert King, and Anthony Burgess.

Ends with thanks to David Lynch and Mary Sweeney and a wonderfully eclectic "In Memory Of" section.

Tom Noonan's The Wife, with Second Second AD and Boom Operator, Zach Galifiankis.

Also watching Tom Noonan's The Wife. Good movie. Someone should restore this one.

Considering the idea previous generations grew up without therapy but with bountiful alcohol to aid outbursts, positive or otherwise, but the new generations are so swamped in therapy concepts they've learned to inure themselves to it all while staying stone cold sober.

Oh, okay, Rapaport has now showed up. Very forgettable group of people otherwise.

Lol, is Rapaport not in the reunion?

Very funny to follow up the most precise, strategic, and impressive game of The Traitors yet (Traitors UK S4) with The Traitors US, which gathered the most rudderless, emotionally impulsive bunch of players yet, who somehow also manage to be really dull about it.

Correctly identified Don was watching Model Shop in this episode of Mad Men. Nailing the important assignments.

Tweet from The Film Stage confirming Janus Films plan to open a 4K restoration of Pialat's TV production, La Maison Des Bois on April 22 in NY with a nationwide expansion planned later.

This is major news! Fantastic! Whatever complaints we have about Criterion dissolve when they put this bad boy out.

This package also included my Vinegar Syndrome subscriber card which is made of solid metal and comes in a big, magnetic keepcase and is kinda ridiculous but whatever.

Second arrival! Much schlockier, and the Radu Jude probably isn't helping on that count.

If he ever gets deposed he's gonna end up living in Florida.

It's just the wrong side of freezing to really be able to enjoy walking around outside but at least it's sunny so that definitely did me some good.

Going for a walk because I realized I've transitioned from being under the weather because I was sick to being under the weather because I've barely been out in sunlight in three weeks.

So Cuba is wrong to attack a foreign boat in its own waters but the US is good to hijack oil tankers in international waters?

We're you there? This show might be a reunion, I'm guessing. Thought they'd broken up long before 2013 but I could be wrong. Also, I had totally forgotten you were on BlueSky 😀

According to Wikipedia they adopted the costumes because local clubs wouldn't let them play consecutive weeks, so they'd play once in costume and once out. That might be a recession indicator too.

Speaking of raucous two-man rock acts, Ireland's Giveamanakick should be better known. Give me this shit all day. The drummer was a classmate but I never did see them live. Shame on me.
