That Jurassic Park Xfinity ad was the worst cgi I've ever seen. Looked worse than a.i. Good concept for an ad. Awful execution.

Every year I donate to Trans Lifeline organized by a Magic the Gathering YouTuber. You should too! give.translifeline.org/campaign/765...

I don't know who came up with the UberEats as campaign of "Let's make Matthew McConaughey annoying for 30 seconds" but I wish then nothing but the worst luck for the rest of their career. Pretty impressive making such a beloved actor and public figure hated so fast.

I am not trying to be negative on here, but the contraption you would have to restrain me in to watch the new movie Mercy has yet to be invented. I'll take the full Fear Factor "stick my head in a box of bugs" before I'd subject myself to that torture.

I know it's kind of silly to be invested in the Academy Award nominations, but F1 getting a best picture nomination over Weapons is just sad. I liked F1, but it was cotton candy and left my mind the minute it was over. Weapons had been there ever since I saw it.

Just saw an ad that indicated as one is the warnings: "tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection." Umm, maybe do that regardless of medicines you own to take.

I just saw a trailer for Mercy and it looks like the dumbest movie ever made... and I am seeing Primate about a domesticated ape that starts attacking people. That is a low bar.

If you still have an "X" account, you are supporting creating a.i. images of child porn. I don't care how you justify it in your head. The only way to stop it is to leave it.

I remember the good old days of making a font bigger or adding adjectives and adverbs to a paper to make it hit a certain length. I never had the idea to totally abandon the assignment. Why is she going to university in the first place? She clearly knows everything.

On advice from @elrickane.bsky.social on @colorsofthedark.bsky.social I bought "In the Miso Soup." Read it in a couple of sittings. Captivating.

My favorite holiday activity: deleting apps I did not ask for or download after a system update. Thanks, Android!

I am a simple man with simple needs but after watching Chain Reactions, if we could have @pattonoswalt.bsky.social @horrornonna.com and @stephenking.bsky.social talk about, oh, every movie every made, that would be great.

Quite enjoyed "Man Finds Tape". An interesting take in the found footage genre. Less jump scare and more psychological thriller.

I am mostly numb to shipping announcement emails, especially this time if year but this one got me excited. How many versions of Chainsaw are there? Not enough.

So excited by two local multiplexes don't have any screenings of the new Knives Out movie, but in Saturday have literally 51 showings of Zootopia 2. At least our local independent is showing Zootopia 2 only on 3 out of their 7 screens.

If I have learned much from watching horror movies, if you are given a mirror that the person who sold it gave you a great deal, has creepy figures sculpted on it AND a dog will not stop barking at, just throw it out.

Local folks, Last Stop CD Shop has gift ideas for adults in need. You grab the tag and then buy the product from Last Stop. You make someone's holidays better AND support local business.

With all this talk about movie continuity on Bluesky today, I remember Keith Giffen in the back of a comic who wrote the smartest thing I have ever read: "continuity means nothing, character consistency is everything."

I prefer my fire alarms to sound like the "ocean" setting on an ambient noise generator.

dawg they’re live laugh loving the white house. president homegoods

Too...many...Hannibal Lector...jokes

I have no rooting interest in this game, but that is a level one gut punch to an entire stadium full of Blue Jay fans.

@aewontv.bsky.social, why am I still seeing ads for ICE on Dynamite?

I'm all for candy makers customizing their products each season, but Kit Kat might have gone a little too far.

I'm currently at a wedding "dance" with a bunch of twenty somethings. They don't dance. They just stand on the dance floor and sing the lyrics to the songs. It looks like what an alien A.I. would think a wedding dance is like.

Highlight of each @siouxpercon.bsky.social is getting a cover sketch by @bivensjohn.bsky.social

Great time at @siouxpercon.bsky.social today. Got to chat with @philhester.bsky.social @gailsimone.bsky.social @tonyfleecs.bsky.social @bivensjohn.bsky.social @danhausen.bsky.social plus others not on Bluesky. Talented and genuinely nice folks.

Just canceled Disney+ and Hulu. I don't support bootlickers who bend the knee to the Orange King.

This made me laugh

I'm so excited to finally see the Long Walk. Crummy day, but I wouldn't miss this one.

Tonight's episode of Alien Earth would have been an extraordinary experience in a movie theater. Homage to the original yet utterly compelling. Love this show.

I am very happy to be alive when Alien Earth, Star Trek Strange New Worlds, and Peacemaker are all releasing new episodes every week.

I'm getting very confused at the way "Al" as in Weird Al looks the same as "AI" or artificial intelligence. One I really love and hope produces content forever, and the other I wish would just die already. Spoiler alert, I like Weird Al.

Received my copy of Superman's Pak Jimmy Olson direct from @stevelieberart.bsky.social Etsy store. Not only signed and remarked by Lieber, but a surprise page of signatures of those from the cover including a blast from Iowa City past, @paultobin.bsky.social and @colleencoover.bsky.social

The first two episodes of Alien Earth is the third best Alien movie. Can't wait until more hit.

Weapons was so different, so exciting, and so crazy. I loved it. Found myself laughing out loud at all the wrong places.

The newest season of Dexter is so fun. Great cast, fun story, each episode has a cool twist.

I would love it if someone could explain why on my Paramount+, in which I pay extra for no ads. Every time I start a show, I get an ad for another Paramount+ show, usually one I just watched or am caught up on? What is the purpose of this?

Hulk Hogan died. Racist, sold out his peers' attempts to unionize, used steroids, and then lied about it on TV and in court and used his power to keep himself high and push others down. A "Real American" indeed.

Life hack, when you buy a birthday card for a little kid, you can buy all the Legos for yourself you want, and the cashier will think they are a gift!

“Superman is too woke!” Literally the first page of the first ever appearance of Superman:

I know the source material is problematic, but Netflix adaptation of Sandman is so exactly my vision of one of my favorite comics. It is so faithful that I have no idea whether it is "good" or not, I only know it is just like I remember from reading multiple times. Wish there was more coming.

My, thankfully, former governor gets the Garbage Pail Kids treatment.

Not loving Hell Motel on Shudder. I mean, the show is good, but they set the opening in 1995 and then flashed 30 years later, and I feel extremely old.

So in a few years, when we equate the word "ice" with fascism, what are we going to call frozen water? Will it disappear like the Chaplin/Hitler mustache? What will we call "iced tea?"

I am running out of "like" for Bluesky's take on Elon vs Trump. Who could have seen this coming except every rational observer.

The device that tracks how many steps you take and how attracted you are to children are both a "pedometer". Ever since I worked with an English born person, I now pronounce it "peed-oh-file". Try it, you'll like it!
