Hear me out: a terrifying score on a horror movie would be to let a 3rd or 4th grade band do instrumentals.

Sneakers is free on YT if you're looking for an absolute banger 90s flick

Also, when they reboot Bond, please let's NOT do that "Slow introduction of key elements over several films" bollocks like Craig did. Let's just go: "Bond, here's your mission. Here's your gadget. Here's your fancy car and love interest. Now fuck off and kill perverted oligarchs."

No funnier film-illiterate take than accusing someone of “stealing” from Tarantino.

Oh you don’t have any money, so you’re getting AI to do the voices? Buddy nobody’s got any money, you’re using AI because you want to and you’re pleading budget because you don’t want people to be justifiably mad at you about it.

And the words of the prophets were written on the subway walls...

What today's 'progressives' fail to understand is that progress actually stopped at the point where I didn't like it anymore, and anything since then deserved everything it got

Saving this for next time I want to moan about Britpop, the grass is never greener on the other side

This would seem to be the problem with modern online journalism in a nutshell. The lie is above the truth.

Me: Hello, the power is out on our road. ESB lady: I'm very sorry sir. It's an issue with one of the Transformers. Me *suddenly frightened*: It's not Megatron, is it?

Where's the upsettingly horny award statue for lettering. Once again we're ignored.

Funnily, I always spell out my SFX as I thought that was just how writers should communicate them to the letterers. I've spent the last 18 years making wild-ass noises in my room and scaring my cats, wondering if 'shkrrrrlp' should have 4 rs or 5. (Art by the ever-amazing @sergiocalvet.bsky.social)

Jenrick: they banned Chrismas, what an insult to our Lord Chris

One of the classic idents of the Scarred For Life era: the cold, hauntological, and faintly Orwellian parpings of THE OPEN UNIVERSITY.

Don't know if i mentioned it but i have a kickstarter running and i'd think you'd like it! Just saying! www.kickstarter.com/projects/mat...

My girlfriend wants to buy a house with period features. I do wish she wouldn’t call me that.

Comic writers of Bluesky, do us letterers a solid, instead of just generalised SFX notes like Insert laser noises here, can you give us the onomateopia that you want for your book please? It can avoid people, such as myself, sitting here for 15 minutes making assorted laser noises & sounding crazy.

For those following along at home, a trip to the doctor this morning reveals that my chest infection has completely cleared up. But I am still coughing, possibly worse than before. Now, apparently, it's my sinuses that are the problem, so I have been prescribed a nasal spray. Tons of fun.

#TheTenX5 Day 48 3. Janelle Monáe (ft Big Boi) - Tightrope (2010) (11 pts) This is an impossibly dancy track, but what I love particularly about it is how big band it is, with the horns and strings and that thick bass drum youtu.be/pwnefUaKCbc

I've decided that I'm going to move on from Tom Holland and 'Umbrella'. It's time. I've decided on something different. Shake it up a little. Anytime I see this clip, I'm resharing it and so should you.

Once someone. learns to draw, they draw naked women. Even straight women who draw. I would say it's weird, but I don't think it is. Naked women are great.

When Liberty Valance came to town The women folks would hide.

This is completely unbearable. But also like… why are his insane ramblings never summarized like this in the media? We gotta wait for a substack guy to put it together like this?

I don't care too much for monkeys. Monkeys can't buy me gloves.

You know how bananas are radioactive but only a tiny bit so it's fine to have a bunch of them lying around. But keeping, like, one billion bananas could fatally irradiate you. I propose we do this to money.

Would you like to draw a 40-page SFW light comedy comic script about a middle-aged couple in the 1970s attempting to have a threesome? Lots of talking heads, a dog & a horse. I'm unemployed. Pay will be a small deposit, KS funds and then in installments, but you will get your rate. Email in bio.

The Sun’s homepage had a terrifying lead story earlier about how Iran probably has a missile that could destroy London with less than 20 minutes’ notice but I see it’s now changed to a story about Pete Wicks kissing Olivia Atwood so I assume we’ve gone back down from DEFCON 1 to DEFCON 2.

"Beware the green menace" are the dying words of a bowler-hatted civil servant who has collapsed in woodland in the pre-titles of an episode of The Avengers.

I'm currently unemployed, but when I had a job, writing was late nights at weekends, and saving to pay for artists meant not spending on myself as much as others might. Clothes from sales and charity shops. Also, the NHS and a supportive partner with a well-paid job are incredibly useful things.

They were selling short sell by date laxatives in the pharmacy the other day, and I don’t know if out of date laxatives will make you shit more or less

If you're still whining that "cancel culture" is actually a thing please note that Declan Shalvey is a guest at MCM London this Spring just a couple of months after The Beat ran this story. www.comicsbeat.com/declan-shalv... Oh and while I'm here #transrightsarehumanrights obviously.

You know how in a library no one’s trying to sell you anything? That’s how the internet was.

Do you think anyone who edits, publishes or prints Nigel Farage talking about “tolerance” does not understand *exactly* what they are doing

Damn it.

#TheTenX5 Day 47 4. My Chemical Romance - Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) (2010) (11pts) I'm sorry, what like a Kennedy? Everything in this from "I'll be your detonator" to the end feels like a revolution breaking out armed with jetpacks and lasers youtu.be/egG7fiE89IU

Good lord man 😢

Oh. Stage an assassination attempt, you say? Interesting.

People say I’m unimaginative with my comebacks but actually they’re unimaginative with their comebacks.

What's cool about comics is you can say things about Sam Kieth like "he was a singular artist with more thought provoking, honest and introspective work than your average indie sad boy could conceive of" and also "he drew the coolest wolverine ever, like if wolverine was a guitar solo"
