No piece of art is "sold" by marketing, it's worth seeing people put in effort. Tim Curry puts in the effort and seems to love doing that. I hope I try as hard as Tim Curry to do anything.

Here's the most "I'm in a weird generation" thing I can say which is I know This Island Earth from MST3K The Movie but Ive never seen Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Tim Curry, in every role: Here mr. director, I made it real extra sexy like you wanted mr. director: hey what

I'm not invalidating this, but I want to be clear that in almost 40 years of life I've never been "upselled" to watch another movie in the theatre and instead it's been made very clear that the teenagers making shitty pay want nothing more than for me to leave and never make them have to work again

O Brother Where Art Thou has some of the scariest shit. Even for comedy the klan rally is horrific

[re] Introducing Lyss 🦈 #oc

It's truly wild that Charles Durning is in two of the best films ever made. The villain of the Muppet Movie and Pappy o'Daniel from O Brother Where Art Thou? absolute fucking killer roles

Rosencratz and Gildenstern are Timon and Pumba in Lion King 1.5.

My entire voting existence has been the Democratic Party saying very loudly "we're not technically Nazis so you either vote for us no matter what, or it's the Technically Nazi Party."

Ah, they've identified the new slate of lost voters they will blame for the midterms and maybe even the general.

I strongly believe in the value & utility of indie crowdfunding, and have put my money where my mouth is by backing 695 campaigns since 2011. 97.5% of them have fulfilled with only 18 MIA. Creators WANT to do the work, and if statistics are any indication, they deserve your benefit of the doubt too.

The Pope as a political actor has always been insanely influential, it's why the Godfather made it a big deal to control the Pope. And it's so funny that the very idiotic dudes ruining the world thought "they had an in" because the Pope was American this time.

I literally watched this episode yesterday and it rules. Also really notable in the first season of X-Files Scully draws her gun all the fucking time compared to Mulder.

My favorite part of all of this is that I only know the name Allbirds because it got mentioned on a couple podcasts like three months ago and the punchline of this AI pivot is that they might change the name.

The restaurant-provided blazer and tie because "proper attire is required"

I was turned off this game at first, just really didn't like it, but a deep discount and an enthusiastic endorsement is worth it. Be persuaded and give it a chance. Best my expectations!!!

I wish I was part of the generation that was better at selfies.

I wish I wasn't a coward.

Truly, I just want the sides and back of my head shaved down and then leave a little on the top. But it feels like its weird to ask for that?

So I usually spend months forgoing a haircut and then get a really basic cut after 8 months of neglect. How do I go ask someone to just "shave my head really short and just see how it looks?"

I don't care what anyone says, late seasons One Tree Hill is great because there's really not a lot of heavy-handed "the brothers make big declarations that they love each other more than adversity" and instead they just clearly love each other more than all the melodrama that happened in the show.

This is the art style of a deeply underfunded studio bought by fox trying to fight with Pixar in 2006, and ten years later there's a deeply dedicated and way too uncomfortable fandom around the bowed front legs of this man-dog.

This is not a connected thing but the gif has me thinking: it's wild that one of the most remembered quotes from the Godfather series comes from Part 3, a movie that is often lamented but still, again, quoted constantly.

lord of the rings is about some guys who knew your uncle

miss them. #othersidepicnic

The fact of the matter is that if they chose to do non-vocal Link in the movie they would just make Zelda or Tingle or Beatle or Navi make it a running joke and it would be fucking worse.

I don't know why, but I chose tonight to think about my personal Lines.

A personal value for me is that I believe you can just be a fan of something, really enjoy it, and never have to post about it. And sometimes that thing goes against how you feel, but not so deeply that you disavow it blatantly with posting. And you hope it does better later, but also it's not evil.

I'm a fan of multiple things that fell out of style years ago. Ive seen many "discourses" around stuff I think is basically fine and not worth the effort. I have found, in exponential value, that you can be an adult with critical thinking skills who makes decisions and they don't compromise values.

"Samus getting hired for a contract and the contract goes wrong" is already an unused, undervalued premise for the series, but "Samus gets a contract to hunt Space Dracula" would be the greatest game of all time.

much love to my ace friends and family on International Asexuality Day. ace people are some of the most incredible, brilliant, open folks I know and I am proud to be your friend. ace queerness and joy is human joy, and that deserves celebration and protection.

Game writing used to be pure.

Zelda is actually the name of the princess. The character you control is Zelda's Monster.

It's important to remember that Bunlith is hot as hell.

“maybe it will happen today” - early 21st century american proverb

I think this is very funny actually

I want to point everyone to Riverdale and Jingle Jangle. It's just Archie coke and looks exactly like pixie-stix but my God, I could say that name all day.

Esquire Singapore posted a cover story interview that ***did not interview the subject*** ***but instead*** ***generated the entire interview using AI*** jfc wtaf gtfo

I want to be a cynical shithead about the D20 April Fools Bus S2 thing, but frankly "well if you're from Portugal and Catholic, your name is Maria" just fucking hit home in way I didn't expect.

I could eat for 3 days....

Very important to remember that the moon is haunted and always has been.

I'm going to brag at every bar forever that a friend of my cousin went to space.

There, I've typed out my glib and not well-thought out enough take on Discourse and then discarded it. Surely that means I won't have to keep hearing about it. Surely?

Bilbo and Beorn are both dumbfounded by Gandalf's bullshit about throwing Dwarves at you two or three at a time and it's the only thing I wish @rangedtouch.bsky.social Shelved By Genre talked about more on their Hobbit episodes.
