Nicolas Cage Spider-Man > Nicolas Cage Superman

Ben Reilly's origin story in Spider-Noir doesn't pull punches, descending into some truly disturbing body horror. Nightmare fuel...

Andrew Robinson, of Dirty Harry, Hellraiser, and Star Trek: Deep Space 9, gets a last chance to shine in Spider-Noir! RIP

They've given out maybe twenty awards in the last hour. Honey is getting impatient. I don't know how much longer this will last, but there looks like a hundred trophies waiting on the table...

Seated with Honey and my son. Cross your fingers for Death's Brother! #scriptsky #filmsky

The #SNL short filmed sketch "The H is O" with Ben Stiller and Will Ferrell is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It has been cut from the episode on Peacock, and every time someone has tried to post it on any site, it's been taken down.

Valuable until people find out, and then it loses all value for them.

Peeple say I do wordz gud, I dunno! #booksky #kindleunlimited

Watched a couple episodes of Spider-Noir last night. Absolutely loved it, although when he's in action with the mask it doesn't look like Nicolas Cage's physique at all. And I think it would be flippin' batshit insane to watch this in color.

Ok she put it better than I could. youtu.be/AgwbsXosPkI?...

I watched Milk and Serial and recognized some potential in Curry Barker, but after watching Obsession it seems I could be better at spotting talent.

In which my friend blows my mind about the history of "My Way," especially when David Bowie took the assignment to write English lyrics for the Claude Francois original before it was handed to Paul Anka, who based the words on a conversation with Sinatra one night. open.substack.com/pub/aawan12/...

Well, people have said self-published literary fiction is pretty risky, as readers of LF tend to assume a work of literary value will be picked up by trad publishing. But when you assume, you make an ass of Uma Thurman, as Stuart Smiley says. #booksky #kindleunlimited

Also saw Obsession with my son this weekend. He observed immediately after the movie ended that love spells raise serious consent issues and that the lead is very much a "nice guy" whose true colors aren't so pretty. Raised my boy right!

My son and I had a great time with The Mandalorian and Grogu. We are still getting a season 4 though, right? #starwars #mandalorian

Poor Righteous Teachers released two perfect albums. Here is your gateway: youtu.be/gfMURCgM3GY?...

RIP Rob Base. We took you for granted.

Ok, Facebook putting this in my reels is frickin' creepy. Simply because I know @leahfromsd.bsky.social and have liked a few of her roller derby posts does not give them the right!

Quaritch doing drugs with the hot goth chick is the best part of Avatar: Fire and Ash and also a fair chunk of my twenties...

I have to fight through a fair bit of pain to reach 20 minutes on the treadmill, but I believe this difficulty will ease up if I keep at it.

I think it's okay to have a fun smaller release for Star Wars, and I think everyone involved knows this isn't meant to have the scope and gravitas of an Episode X. Looking forward to taking my son.

If you thought the Pet Shop Boys were just an eighties, or even nineties act, allow my friend to disabuse you of the notion. Some of their best work has been in the 21st century. #music #petshopboys open.substack.com/pub/aawan12/...

New Zealand's incomparable Jonathan Bree taps into another remarkable talent, who also looks like a Venusian Shelly Duvall. youtu.be/Bp35_73zyKs?...

As a lifelong Anglophile (my grandmother was an English immigrant, thankfully) and SNL fan, I am eternally grateful for SNL UK and wish for it to have 50+ seasons as well. British humor is my humor. Even if I don't know that particular person...

I've been thinking about Song Sung Blue a lot. Like, "Damn, these are some incredible songs (most introduced to me by an old roomie). Let me deep dive in Neil Diamond's discography-" -and then I realized I like the songs better with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson singing them. I'm sorry, I just do.

Death's Brother got an upgrade for the Iowa Motion Picture Film Festival . Much appreciated, folks! #scriptsky

Have I mentioned my novels are available on #KindleUnlimited? #booksky

Personally, I think it would be a massive cultural disservice as well as a stupid business decision to not greenlight Avatar 4&5. How successful does James Cameron have to be? Oh, #3 only made $1.5 billion? Are you kidding me? Let James Cameron cook.

On Mother's Day I played Song Sung Blue for her, which she quite liked. I was happy, because the last few times I've tried showing her movies she didn't like them. Only problem is, as soon as it starts, I know everything coming and start welling up the first 5 minutes, then wipe my eyes for 120 min.

I quit watching UFC about four years ago, but there's a fight people I know are talking about, I actually know who both fighters are, and after I finished playing Crimson Desert tonight, it was literally beginning on Paramount Plus. Let's go!

Even when I don't like what Emerald Fennell is doing, I like what she's doing.

The Mandalorian and Grogu is probably made for Star Wars nerds who watched the show. If it manages to cross over to those who have not,

Grab your shorts, it's a new The Last Dinner Party single: #music youtu.be/tCnvd5QYEns?...

Was just reminded that Karl Urban has given us Eomer, Dredd, Skurge, and Billy Butcher. If he gives us an aging Johnny Cage, that is also good, but holy smokes, are we letting Karl reach his full potential? How much does this man of limitless talent have to do to be considered A-list?

Hauling my new heavy duty treadmill downstairs and setting it up was a workout, so my first stint of less than ten minutes counts as a second workout.

Frustration: After discovering that his long-lost mother ended up in porn, an angry young man plays angel and devil in pursuit of the truth, vengeance, and social prestige. A reader once described it as these two movies crossed: #scriptsky

Two things people are inexplicably sleeping on: 1. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple 2. Daredevil: Born Again S2

My friend is now up to 300+ subscribers on Substack and is still writing great new pieces. Today's is on 80s singles compilation albums from monumental bands like Pet Shop Boys, New Order and more. #music open.substack.com/pub/aawan12/...

There are no vehicle keys in Star Wars. Anyone can get in any speeder or ship and fly it. This seems unfeasible. Happy May 4th! #starwars

Just realized that *is* Wagner Moura in Maul: Shadow Lord! Nice win there, Filoni. I've really become a fan of his lately. #starwars

Interesting lesson: I think the primary conceit of the plot in Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse ("canon" events must happen or the universe implodes) is silly nonsense, but it's one of the best fucking movies I've ever seen.

My professional attitude is that we will prosper in our mission if we are at each other's service.

It was to be a fun Spring Break with her bestie Flenner and his billionaire boyfriend: shopping, LSD, and hookups. An escape from a dead-end life. Flenner wasn’t supposed to go missing. Who can Juni-Q trust on this yacht full of dark secrets? Sequel also available! #booksky a.co/d/9yaNmbf

Two big work deadlines Thursday and an enormous Diablo IV expansion dropped today.

Mozzer in full force at 66: youtu.be/ZiUa_cioOBU?...

Today I was talking to a co-worker about our phones. He said he got the one recommended by, "that Green Lantern guy." I said, "Ryan Reynolds?" "Yeah!" Poor Ryan, still Green Lantern to the masses;)

I've overheard many women swear their devotion to Honey, on speakerphone, because this is 2026, and also because she is a genuine, empathetic listener who will also tell it like it is.

Having a successful child is a helluva drug. It encourages selflessness, surrender, and subjugation to Nature.
