I suffer from Palpatinephobia - its a fear of the deflector shield being quite operational when your friends arrive.

RIP legendary American actor and filmmaker Robert Duvall (1931-2026).

He has starred in so many classics that we couldn't cover them all in one thread, but he has also done quite a bit of sci-fi: The Twilight Zone (1963), Countdown (1967), THX 1138 (1971), Invasion of the Body...

Roger Corman recycled the effects and score from another space movie, and then got the writer of Deathstalker and 11 episodes of Care Bears to write and direct it. It's SPACE RAIDERS and it will be one of four films for The RiffTrax Experiments

in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with.
this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US.

My adolescence can be precisely described by the fact that I learned to touch-type by hanging out in a busy X-Files chat room on CompuServe where I had to break typing speed records to get my deep and insightful comments in before the conversation moved on

Thirsty Star Trek The Original Series scene. Ol' pointy ear Spock is "piloting a shuttlecraft" if you know what I mean.  He's looking up and concentrating hard. Closed caption reads, "The area of penetration will no doubt be sensitive."

Now I'm picturing Terry Matalas in charge of a Sopranos sequel series where Tony is brought back in a robot body, only to end up abruptly cutting to black (again) in an even bigger and flashier restaurant.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

"How to find things to hope for when things are hopeless" is a theme I keep returning to in writing, for pretty obvious reasons.
But that is not what Threads is for. The hope in Threads is "You better fucking hope this doesn't happen". That is the explicit message. Want anything else? Watch Fallout.

its a huge shame Kennedy never did a full reading because there is something so wonderful about listening to him talk about it in his own words.
