Is Prince Andrew on Cameo yet?

The New York Post is owned by Lachlan Murdoch, solely because his daddy bought it and passed it on to him.

And it's backing Andrew Cuomo, a meathead whose whole career in politics stems from his daddy being good at it.

But *Mamdani* is the nepo baby, because his mom was a filmmaker? Sure.

Mike Johnson is as if the new CEO of Campbell’s kept insisting he hasn’t heard of soup.

Nothing warms my heart as much as seeing someone doing this. The world is *full* of people doubling down on shit they don’t even believe out of a sense of pride, and seeing someone graciously acknowledge being wrong, in full public view, is quite inspiring.

The Reprise of it at the end of the album is dripping in irony

A Watchmen parody in which Dr. Manhattan is on Mars thinking, "It is 182. I am one year old. Tron bombs at the box office. It's 2010. I am twenty-nine years old. Tron bombs at the box office. It is 2025. I am forty-four years old. Tron bombs at the box office."

quite touched by this kevin tighe interview in @thereveal.bsky.social.

the conversation gives him space to reflect on his extensive career and the ways PTA made allowances for his disability on set of “one battle after another” and didn’t shy from casting him once the disability was known.

It’s not Spooky Season yet as much as Mildly Disturbing Season

Pretty confused by how TRON became a big-budget movie franchise. Was it a bit hit when it came out? No. Did it become a big hit on video/TV? Also no. Do people have fond nostalgic memories of it? Eh kinda but not really. Was it secretly great and critically acclaimed? No again

I saw it at Film Forum around the time of its 50th anniversary and was blown away. The extras on the Criterion release are amazing. Still packs a wallop.

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

The George Romero-supervised restoration of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968) from MoMA and The Film Foundation is now on Netflix.

It's also on Criterion Channel, but it's nice to see such a significant (and subversive) indie classic on the largest subscription streaming service in the US. #FilmSky

It’s such a great restoration and so needed after the avalanche of endless dicey public domain home video versions
