Is The Breakfast Club the only film that has a universally agreed "glow-up" that makes a character look objectively worse?

Today's film was Dr. Who & the Daleks (1965). A dumb adaptation of a long and boring Doctor Who story that manages to have some sets that look even cheaper than BBC ones. Characters are completely different and the only one what benefits from this is Susan, who now has a spine.

Now that X-Men and Star Trek Lego exists, we can recreate one of the wildest crossovers from the 90's. Ping @xplainthexmen.bsky.social

Tonight's film was Vivarium (2019). I quite enjoyed the atmosphere, acting and the general presentation, but I'm not sure it really succeeded in the themes it was shooting for. Still worth a watch.

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this Pluribus screencap

Larian’s usage of genAI is by no means close to the worst I’ve heard of (not a defense-just saying) but if companies can learn one thing from this backlash, I hope it’s that nobody wants this and you will actually EARN goodwill (with gamers AND creatives) by outright banning genAI usage.

No words today, all I can do is share something.

If you live in Australia, especially the eastern side, please go and give blood ASAP.

So there is already an ai-generated whitewashing campaign to bury the name of the Muslim man, Ahmed al Ahmed, who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters, and replace his identity with a white guy name and that’s why even a thimble of our potable water powering this tech is too fucking much.

For my fellow Aussies

I cannot stress enough to any other Australians to please avoid KWS verification like the plague. I was checking through what bluesky's verification was and just immediately with this. If you don't know, KWS had a data breech and it was confirmed user data was stolen that was supposed to be deleted

One of the best-sketched characters in an incredibly character-rich show: a fascist whose (potentially real!) redeeming qualities are continually undercut by his monumental pride, bigotry, entitlement and pettiness

I dunno man the concept of actually owning something you pay for must be like a drug if you're under 30

What's a movie you saw over six times other than LOTR & Star Trek/Wars

Kisarazu Cat's Eye: Nihon Series (known in Australia as Kisarazu Cat's Eye Go Major). I will fight anyone and everyone who doesn't love this film.

Today on Star Trek Adventures, the crew investigated time prophecy malarkey. @bees1000.bsky.social immediately stooged a freighter captain out to the cops, AJ invented the Vulcan Spinaroonie & they made a nemesis out of a Klingon. I'm sure that won't be any issue down the line.

Today's film was Eternity (2025). A cromulent enough film that didn't know who the protagonist was and made not attempt to do anything interesting of challenging. Fine but entirely forgettable.

If there is a Warner Bros. movie you love and you don't have on physical media then do not hold off getting it while you still can.

I still believe in Gene Roddenberry's vision for the future

No energy, reposting

Today's film was Five Nights at Freddy's (2023). A stupid, joyless, shameless piece of crap. When even Matthew Lillard is sleepwalking through it, you know you have something really awful.

i’m setting you free. i’m releasing you from the discourse

80s kids! If you remember the Jim Henson show The Storyteller starring John Hurt, it's now on DVD and blu ray!

Yesterday's film was The Secret Garden (1993). The most unlikable children slowly become nice people, but it's understandable why both are such arseholes at the start. A good adaptation and a lovely film.

Today on Star Trek Adventures, the crew prevented a Prime Directive violation after a local population was infected with a foreign illness. And @manicspider.bsky.social discovered where the "make an unnecessarily loud noise" on the tricorder button is.

Star Trek Nemesis is bad.

Share a '90s movie that you think deserves more love.

While doing planning for my next session of Star Trek Adventures, I spent my day also rewatching the first three Next Generation films. Generations is fine but flawed, First Contact is good but has issues, and Insurrection is like a very meh two-part episode of TNG.

Capitalism is so smart cuz if u have lots of disposable income, u hardly ever have to see ads but if u can only afford a $8 Netflix subscription boy does Chanel at Sephora have deals 4 u and your no money

Picard during TNG: I don't care much for children, I prefer reading, archaeology and commanding a starship. Picard during Generations: My perfect existence involves being married and having multiple Victorian moppets as children who are constantly on at me about spending time with them.

Fuck the Salvation Army

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

Forget it Jake, it's Charlie Brown

Support physical media.

Hey yall not what I wanted to do on my birthday but let it be clear "Death of the artist" is all well & good but you cannot Seperate the art from the artist when the artist is still alive, a terf & every penny they recieve reinforces their beliefs & is used to actively harm Trans folks! Let it Go!

One episode in and Last Samurai Standing is really good. Plus it stars Jun'ichi Okada, who will always be Bussan from Kisarazu Cat's Eye to me.

Today's film was Bugonia (2025). My only other Yorgos Lanthimos experience was The Lobster, a film I do not particularly care for, but Bugonia was fantastic. Just Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons & Aidan Delbis acting the fuck out of scenes in a dirty house. Well recommended.

oh, that's... that's not... you can't call it that

‘The Owl House’ creator Dana Terrace responds to Disney+ funding AI-generated short form content in new tweet: “Unsubscribe from Disney+. Pirate Owl House. I don’t care. Fuck gen AI.”

"one day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this"

Tonight's film was Monkey Man (2024). Very stylishly shot, really enjoyable revenge action film. Also, it is literally aggressively pro-trans, which is a plus.
