And that's a wrap on awards season! Elysia and David look back on the ceremony, the winners, and share their own Best Picture nominee rankings. (Along with a few extras – they had No Other Choice.) #Oscars2026 #FilmSky @elysiacb.bsky.social @jabd.bsky.social thelorehounds.com/podcast/the-...

Believe it or not, we love media outside of Dune! Had a great time sitting down with @jabd.bsky.social and @whittsinned.bsky.social to catch up on what’s been happening in The Pitt and how we’re feeling halfway through the current season. Hop in for a listen!

David sat down w/Ian from Captain's Pod & John from Dune Minute for a mid-season check-in No, it's NOT weird for a bunch of Sci-Fi genre nerds to be captivated by a real-world medical drama because the show is that damn good #ThePitt @whittsinned.bsky.social @perlj.com @jabd.bsky.social

It's always a good time hanging out with the DMP folks! I'm really impressed by the miniseries - it was a big missing from my own Dune journey. Looking forward to some more crossovers later in the year with D3 and Dune Prophecy! @thelorehounds.com @duneminute.com

This month's episode of The Dune Minute dives deep into Part Two (of the miniseries) featuring our friend @jabd.bsky.social from @thelorehounds.com ! In this episode, we take another look at the naming ceremony and dive even deeper into what makes this Vladimir Harkonnen so great! #dune #duneminute

THE VERMONT TRADITION grapples energetically with the basie problem of human conduct... how to reconcile the needs of the group, of which every man or woman is a member,...with the craving for individual freedom to be what he really is. -DOROTHY CANFIELD FISHER, 1953

I can confirm, we broke the 3hr barrier and the world will never be the same.

I posted this early today but then the link got broken so follow-up with this one for an absolute banger of an article!

Absolute banger of an article! In a wasteland of art flavored products, reading Going Rogue on Heat Death reminds me of the first time I discovered the combo of 🥓 and 🍁 @tansyg.bsky.social @asherelbein.bsky.social @saulelbein.bsky.social @thelorehounds.com heat-death.ghost.io/decline-and-...

Experience for the brain matters. I look at this from Alien: Earth for the @thelorehounds.com thelorehounds.com/blog/the-exp...

#AlienEarth S01E07 SPOILERS * * Pretty impressive that Noah Hawley could successfully pull off a version of the chestburster scene... and I have thoughts on how he was able to navigate the complexities of making the familiar feel genuinely shocking! @thelorehounds.com

I think my favorite line delivered during this interview was from Saul about industrially produced "art flavored products." Looking forward to talking with Heat Death again in the future! @asherelbein.bsky.social @saulelbein.bsky.social @thelorehounds.com

And yet… and yet… All of those zombie websites that are absolutely over stuffed with ridiculous popup ad clickbait faux news headlines persist.

Not sure what I'm more excited about tonight... Finally meeting The Fly OR Hearing what song was picked for the ending credits #AlienEarth

Absolutely baller of an episode of Alien: Earth ep5. Haunted house. Who dunnit. Jail brake. Monster on monster. And so much more. This season is more that I could have ever imagined or expected. #AlienEarth

I love that Noah Hawley is using, intentionally or unintentionally, material for ep5 that goes all the way back to 1958 and “It! The Terror from Beyond Space” @everyscififilm.bsky.social #AlienEarth

I dunno @tansyg.bsky.social - any chance that Spike is gonna be able to credibly pull off a version of High and Low? I mean, Kurosawa was working on another level with his movie

The Day the Earth Caught Fire is a very British take on nuclear apocalypse. Set in a frantic newsroom, cynical and failing hero Peter Jennings seems incapable of sticking to deadlines or writing much at all until the end is nigh!  The Day the Earth Caught Fire: Britain’s 1961 Apocalypse is out now.

The Top Talking-About-Peacemaker Trio has assembled for a tour of the Quantum Unfolding Chamber in "The Ties That Grind," the 1st ep of S2 of #Peacemaker on HBO Max. @thelorehounds.com @jgjr.bsky.social @radioactive141.bsky.social #DCU thelorehounds.com/podcast/the-...

🎵 Yes, that was NOT the original "Maggot Brain" by Funkadelic in Alien: Earth ep3 - it's a sound-alike by Jeff Russo! Ian and Mark and I debate why they didn't use the real thing. New episode out now! 🧵 1/2 @nevermusicpod.bsky.social @whittsinned.bsky.social @thelorehounds.com #AlienEarth

Finally finished S4 of The Bear @blerdronner.bsky.social & I got a chance to discuss the season overall A phenomenal season... subtle & not what we expect from normal tv. I think it breaks new ground in what's possible for the medium #thebearfx @thelorehounds.com thelorehounds.com/podcast/the-...

On this episode we get to discuss the meaning behind the name Usul

At first I thought this was a job posting for ICE.

The Last of Us season 2 finale is tonight. Over the past several weeks, the online abuse against the show’s nonbinary star and the lesbian character they play became impossible to avoid. It’s another chapter in the online playbook to regress culture by force. spitfirenews.com/p/the-bella-...

This was such a fun set of minutes to talk about! We thought pretty hard about what part of the movie for me to join on and I think we made a good choice.

The final scene w/Partagaz has a lot going on with it They mirror a trick from S01E12 where Nemik's VO goes diegetic to non-diegetic which gets reversed in S02E12 But there is even more to this scene & my blog post gets into it 🧵1/4 thelorehounds.com/blog/mirrors... #Andor @thelorehounds.com

Director Krennic demands an answer: Is Andor the best Star Wars of all time? Of all live action Star Wars? Let us know in the comments or send an email to [email protected] and we'll read your feedback in our season wrap-up featuring all three Squadron Leaders!

Costumes for both seasons was on point! I’m so glad they didn’t skimp on this aspect. They even used costumes as key parts of the visual storytelling, as with Mon Mothma’s layered look while on Coruscant. #Andor

Ohh!! Well spotted!!

Who's gathering around to watch Murderbot? @elysiacb.bsky.social and @johnlorehound.bsky.social drop their first breakdown covering the double premiere tomorrow at 6am ET. After a month of heavy dramas, it'll be great to drop into Martha Wells' whimsical, satirical, and dangerous world.

#AndorSpoilers #Andor S02E11 I'm sorry but this is just an incredible composition

#AndorSpoilers #Andor S02E12 Love Smits BUT Bratt did an OUTSTANDING job as Organa. He brought something new and different that added to our understanding of who Bail Organa is. He did his job... and then took it to the next level.

#AndorSpoilers #Andor S02E12 I've been saving myself from the spiral of screenshots because I need to focus on preparing for our ep12 podcast and if I screenshot like I usually do it will take me a week. But I could NOT resist this shot ... Absolute Perfection!

Why make up aliens and such? The earth as is is wilder than we can imagine!

The Chronicles of Amber were quintessential reading for me as an adolescent and young adult.

BTW, David put together this great sampler platter of some of the extras we've been doing for our #Andor coverage this season! Thinking about it while I put together the penultimate Rebel Squadron Radio release, where things take a turn... @thelorehounds.com thelorehounds.com/podcast/the-...

Shut- up and drive #Andor S02E09

OMFG!!

MAY THY 9TH CHIP AND SHATTER Happy Holidays to all who observe! 🗡️🗡️🗡️

What do you get when you combine an expert in Star Wars lore and a 20th Century Military Historian/Professor? You get a really great analysis of S02E08 of Andor. That's what you get! thelorehounds.com/podcast/the-... #Andor @thelorehounds.com @elysiacb.bsky.social @lukemiddup.bsky.social

#AndorSpoilers #Andor S02E09 The first blaster Vel picks up when she is doing intake on Y4 looks a lot like Jyn's blaster from Rogue One

#AndorSpoilers #Andor S02E09 Pt2 🧵 Resuming my comments for ep9 key visual moments that standout to me Picking back up with Mon in the Senate, they really love to use frame-in-frame shots for this whole series, especially for Mon
