BBC News headline: 'Should Hitler's DNA have been studied - or just left alone?'

Should Hitler's DNA have been studied
- or nah?

Seven minutes into '825 Forest Road', Stephen Cognetti's one non-Hell House LLC film and he's introduced a new mannequin. Fantastic stuff.

Current observation from the Turnstile show. Beardos at gigs are old news. It's all 'taches all the time these days.

Happy Birthday Seth Rogen

They doxxed the fucking Prodigy crab

Ebay listing which reads, THE PRODIGY - THE FAT OF THE LAND - PROMO FAUX-FUR TOILET-SEAT COVER (NEW)'. Above the title is a photo of the afore mentioned toilet seat. It is black and white and features a large Prodigy ant logo.

Screenshot of a Letterboxd review of the film Frankenhooker by user C B, which reads: "Oscars ceremony, 1991 Daniel Day Lewis announces from the stage, "And the Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role goes to...Patty Mullen for Frankenhooker." The auditorium erupts in rapturous applause. Kathy Bates, despite losing out for her role as Annie Wilkes, gives a loving nod of approval and gets to her feet, leading the audience in a standing ovation, as Patty Mullen takes to the stage to accept her award. Well... a man can dream, can't he? A man can dream."

I will be contextualising any Oscar win for The Substance as a retrospective award for Frankenhooker.

Cinema listing for 'André Rieu's 75th Birthday: The Dream Continues' highlighting that it's "only in cinemas 12 & 13 April 2025". The listing itself is for 15 April 2025.

I don't mean to get political, but something has got to be done about all these people trying to turn me on to radiohead

Fantastic. This goes some way to making amends for Frankenhooker being snubbed in 1990.

Photo from the 1980s of Back to the Future actress Lea Thompson being held from behind by Beastie Boys member Adam Yauch. Thompson smiles to camera while Yauch appears to call to someone out of frame.

They tell Fuller to go easy on the Pepsi in the first film, so he drinks Coke in the second one. Good bit.

imo The Ramones should’ve recorded a Pet Sematary-esque song for every Stephen King film adaptation, e.g.
🎶I don’t want to be dining at the hotel from The Shining/
I don’t want a blowjob from a bear🎶

Still from the trailer for 28 Years Later. Actor Cillian Murphy looking severally emaciated stands in a field, surrounded by yellow flowers. The image has been altered to add a fedora style hat, as he wore in the film Oppenheimer, upon his head.

Screenshot of Gregg Wallace from a video in which he is speaking directly to camera in a room with white walls, covered in picture frames and shelving units. The phrase "handful of middle class women of a certain age", is captioned within the image in large, bold, white letters. A hand holding a microphone bearing the orange, green and blue colours associated with the film site Letterboxd has been added to the bottom right corner of the image as if GW is being interviewed for the site and is picking his four favourite films. Four movie posters have been added above his head for the films 'Book Club's, 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel', 'Calendar Girls' and '80 for Brady'.
