Oh no, the robots under the stage are cutting their way out

Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

All you Master & Commander "perfect movie" posters have given me this earworm again!

How it started How it's going

What movie do you consider “perfect”?

Worth a read. www.thejournal.ie/factcheck-ch...

The Hollywood Reporter just published a nice oral history of Ron Howard's Apollo 13 (1995) by @aaroncouch.bsky.social I recommend that all fans of this film read this article, but in the meantime, here are some good quotes. 🖖 1/18

THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH #2 from Wes Chatham, Francesco Pisa and me; covers by Christian Ward, Junggeun Yoon and Suspiria Vilchez! Final pre-orders end TOMORROW, i.e. Monday 22nd September! That means, ask your local comic shop to pre-order it for you, and ask 'em NOW! 🚀

If you think BlueSky is an echo chamber, I have news for you about Truth Social. But you don’t hear the Twitterati whining about that place, do you?

Remembering the first ever #BatmanDay in 1893! 🦇

I just slept for almost 12 hours, and that's after having a 3-hour nap yesterday. This fatigue is insane.

"If you’re on the sidelines you’ve made a choice and must live with it. Their goal is to instill fear, to make you feel helpless, hopeless, to break you down. Don’t let them. Educate yourself. Organize. Speak truth to authority. Because the story’s not written — the pen is in your hand."

"We spent six years thinking about a fascist takeover of a galaxy far, far away. Six years thinking about ordinary beings as an authoritarian regime comes in for the kill. Many people saw parallels between Andor and the real world. I see them as well, particularly in the events of the last week."

Pat Boutin's framing is incredible. The way he layers fore/mid/background elements to create depth and perspective... Silhouettes and negative space... All in service of pure visual storytelling. He's like a one-man 22 Panels That Always Work!

You can’t stop the churn, buuuuut you can survive it with good reads like 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗘: 𝗔 𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗧𝗟𝗘 𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗛 𝗜𝗦𝗦𝗨𝗘 𝟮! Add it and these other incredible titles to your pull list before the final cutoff this Monday, September 22nd: boomstud.io/FOC

🤣

So many great stories here about the great Robert Redford. I think it’s this one I will never forget. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/se...

AARDMAN: EARTH

Another day, another hospital. At least this one’s closer to home.

"Maneuver" "Gauge" "Background" (it always comes out as "backgorund")

Remember, Trump said "Jimmy Kimmel is next" TWO MONTHS AGO. He's been waiting for an excuse. If it wasn't the Charlie Kirk thing, it would've been something else.

The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled is conditioning us to use the term "Artificial Intelligence" for shitty predictive autocorrect.

OBEY MARRY AND REPRODUCE NO INDEPENDENT THOUGHT OBEY STAY ASLEEP

Anyway. Hollywood used to have more courage. Not much. But some.

YOU WILL NOW PARTICIPATE IN A MOMENT OF SILENCE YOU HAVE 30 SECONDS TO COMPLY

Stories taught us that fascist takeovers are DRAMATIC and EXCITING! We'll hear the call to action when the Big Thing Happens! ... But historically, they're kind of dull and bureaucratic. Assholes get voted into power, then chip away at our institutions and free speech. This is what it looks like.

Hey look, a dead canary.

Woke is bullshit. It's horseshit. It exists as a false affront to assholes who just want to asshole. It's fascism that is the enemy of free and open speech. Fascism is and always was the great shut-up and shut-it-down censor of debate and discussion. Fuck all these corporate whores.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

I haven't read it since 1977, but there was a waterworld called Drexel in an old Howard Chaykin Star Wars comic, and I always wondered if that's where Tarantino got the name for Gary Oldman's character in True Romance. Anyway, if Drexel appears in SW: Starfighter I'm awarding myself a No Prize.

More altruistic role models, please. We need it.

… But you don’t have to don’t take our word for it! Listen to Dominique Tipper, aka Naomi Nagata of #TheExpanse 🚀

I seem to be experiencing a rare moment of national pride! ... I'm sure it'll pass.

Post a movie you like with a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score

Not now, exploding Siberian tundra

If you've never seen Sneakers (1992), treat yourself. #RobertRedford

"I'm better when I move." #RobertRedford

My favorite Robert Redford acting trick is that he would clip off the end of a line the audience already knew the end of, pause as if thinking, then start the next line as if he was interrupting himself. It's why his acting feels so naturalistic. He feels improvised while not shitting on the script.

Has anyone thought about turning it off and not turning it on again

Political violence is evil, killing people is evil, a country with more guns in it than people is broken, and what the government is saying about political violence right now being a primarily leftwing phenomenon is factually, statistically untrue. They are using this moment to rewrite history.
