Jacked action hero with goon in headlock, in raspy yet firm voice:

Getting set up in the conference room at work for soldering class. I've never done a soldering course that met my expectations, so I'm going to teach one myself for our new staff.

My little camera actually works rather well as a ghetto microscope, allowing everyone to see demos very clearly.

I love how Cybermen follow the movie villains’ handbook to the letter, shouting “Destroy them at once!” here and yet having a lovely chat with the Doctor later on (You Only Live Twice is a particularly epic example of the trope: “Kill! Bond! Now!”)

Trump is threatening to not sign any bills into law until the SAVE Act is approved by the Senate..

With the current make up of Congress and the crappy bills they pass, that's not really the threat he thinks it is.

Aesthetically this would’ve been a good fit, tho I’m unsure Elvira’s sense of humour would suit Burton as well as Pee-wee‘s did

Every #MST3K forum or online group eventually devolves into a series of "Hey, this actor who was in a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode was also in another movie!"

Schrödinger's Merritt Stone

I don’t actually hate Akhaten - there’s some nice stuff there - but yeah it’s a bit of a slog

“Why We Must Put Our Faith in The Marshal To Save Solos” (Fake Daily Express headline)

The DW universe is so broad in scope that you could apply this to almost anything, but yeah, I agree. I’ve always thought The Mutants (1972) in particular fits right in there with Blake’s 7.

There’s a big treat in store for UK viewers tonight. As part of BBC4’s Ibsen season, they are showing the filmed 1959 play ‘Brand’, which made Patrick McGoohan the toast of theatreland and set him on his way to above-the-title stardom. Tune in tonight at 11:50, or iPlayer.

Early contender for 2026 Word of the Year: Treason

Fargo is 30.
Beggars belief that people think of the Coens as misanthropic & cold when they end a film as touchingly as this.
(But yes, they do think the world is full of very dumb, venal & greedy people but *gestures everywhere* they have a point)

From showrunner Dorothy Fontana to Lt. Uhura commanding the Enterprise (twice!), to the women behind the scenes at Filmation & fans like Bjo Trimble whose letter-writing campaign helped keep Star Trek going—the women of #StarTrekTAS made a lasting impact. #InternationalWomensDay

THE BRIDE! (2026) Dir. Maggie Gyllenhaal

I rarely talk about new releases but this one deserves attention. A bold messy genre bending act of cinematic provocation that swings big and refuses to play safe. It will divide viewers but the passion of a true film lover is everywhere. Buckley is a force🎞️

I’m getting a ‘Mary Shelley meets Sid & Nancy’ vibe from these photos

The horror TV series ‘Damien’ starring Bradley James and Barbara Hershey premiered on A&E on this day ten years ago 📺 😈 ☠️ #OTD

Wow, this is news to me!

I remember enjoying this but I think mum was their target audience - she bloody loved it!

Virtuosity - film-authority.com […] More

Fancy a laugh? Check out 1995's Virtuosity, a sci-fi thriller with Russell Crowe as an AI serial killer, Denzel Washington is the cop tracking him down in far off 1999. Phones the size of fridges? Displays of food mixers? This is a future that never happened...2/5

Dune (twice, I think), 2010 and The Terminator

Explaining to a child that we're mortal and that death is inescapable is probably, for me, the hardest part of being a party clown.

Sent by a friend who knows my sense of humour very well.

Foster and Alien

Following the success of ‘Sinners’ filmmakers look to new ways of incorporating horror + folksy music

If you hated the Hummer in the 1990s, you were right. And also well primed to hate the Tesla Cybertruck in the 2020s.

Bing Bong, a fictional character who only exits in Riley’s memory, about to fade from existence knowing that he has helped .. (Inside Out, 2015)

True love is being prepared to be their Bing Bong ❤️

We lost the greatest Kling-Gone on this date (yesterday) in 2000. RIP John Colicos, you were glorious. #TOSSatNight

@suzyj.net and I discussing where our respective headspaces are at. Hers: Joy + belligerence, mine: Joy + melancholy. The main thing is (for both of us), is to feed ‘joy’ sufficiently enough so that the other does not come to dominate.

Mike Flanagan’s upcoming projects:

• ‘CARRIE’ miniseries (finished filming)

• ‘THE EXORCIST’ film (preparing to shoot)

• ‘THE MIST’ film (in development)

• ‘THE DARK TOWER’ TV series (early development)

#MikeFlanagan #Carrie #TheExorcist

Of two minds reading this, bc Mike Flanagan is a great filmmaker and I wish him all the best but three out these four already exist as *perfect* movies and wishing he could use his talents making things we haven’t seen already

Professor Julius Sumner Miller doing his famous egg in the bottle thing

I need a haircut. Every time I look in a mirror it feels like I should be stuffing eggs into milk bottles (oldies will get this)
