How does this not just happen all the time? #BlueJays

A mysterious redacted expert in submersibles was interviewed by the Coast Guard during the OceanGate Titan investigation. It is seemingly James Cameron — “Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic”

RIP Samantha Eggar, unforgettable in Cronenberg’s THE BROOD, right up there in the pantheon of Most Divorced Cinema

#WhoKilledtheMontrealExpos is a satisfying documentary about the rise and fall of Canada's first baseball team: The Montreal Expos. thatshelf.com/who-killed-t... #MLB #Canada #Netflix #Expos

It's been a real mixed bag.

I think you mean Andrew, CNN.

It's not going to make it bigger, guys.

I thought this guy was gonna reduce the number of murders in New York?

It's time! Today we're celebrating N++'s 10th Anniversary, aka TEN++, with style -- a fancy free update to the game and a Daily Deal on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/230270/N...

I finished Max Payne 2 in one sitting, over night at a very sketchy 24/7 internet cafe in Paris in December 2003. I had a train to the UK in the morning, but I was completely broke after a few months roaming around Europe and couldn't afford a hostel. This is how I spent my last night in France.

If a party that loses by 5 percentage points still gets to control the legislative body, do you really live in a democracy? And if you don't live in a democracy, why should your state remain a part of that union?

This can’t be good. 🤨

Laying the groundwork for an Argentinian exile is just fascist best practice at this point, I guess.

I'm seeing this poster making the rounds and it's being identified as an unused Star Trek V poster by Drew Struzan. I disagree. It's a little cropped, but the bottom right shows Drew's signature and you can make out "91" which would mean this is an unused Star Trek VI concept. More in alt text.

The Christmas Adventurers Club strikes again!

American Lips "Cardboard Trash" music video "This video was made with walkthrough footage from the classic 1989 Sierra game "Space Quest III: The Pirates Of Pestulon". We all played Sierra games as kids and it means a great deal to us to have been able to pay tribute in this way. Thank you Sierra!"

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

Flashback - Such a good game 😍

To be clear: LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government. The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency. This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

People who skip intro are worse than big light people.

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

Incredibly proud to have my Arrow essay debut included in such a great film. So proud of this one

Does your computer sound like this? Well, imagine if it sounded like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=erTK...

Pouring one out for Drew Struzan. Here are his sexy George Lucas paintings.

It's a blackmail machine! No secrets are safe for people foolish enough to do this.

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years. His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds. A massive loss 💔

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

I don’t think any poster artist will ever capture “The Movies” the way Drew Struzan did. An enormous talent and an even bigger loss.

RIP Drew Struzan A master.

What are the essential books about video games, video game design, and/or video game history?

For the Shadow of the Colossus story, we interviewed 14 people including project leads Fumito Ueda and Kenji Kaido, hired Gravity Rush concept artist Takeshi Oga to illustrate the cover, and put together a 10,000-word story with help from @milkman.bsky.social @shmuplations.bsky.social and others.

Has anyone asked Tron Guy what he thinks of the new Tron movie?

I will say that nothing is more baffling to me than the industry standard that we teach developers about publishing by having them listen to talks and panels by publishers. It's like fiscal responsibility taught by a loan shark, privacy taught by Google, or human rights taught by Israel.

The Melon of Budapest

I thought about Diane Keaton a lot this year, sorry to see her go. For the podcast I had a great conversation recently with @jmritchey.bsky.social on the prickly LOOKING FOR MR GOODBAR, recently rescued from decades of music licensing hell by Vinegar Syndrome podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/j...

Those status quo losers would never!

Live now!

Feeling pretty destroyed inside seeing Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie in theatres before One Battle After Another. I've failed you all.

Conquer freedom?!

I apparently made this photoshop 8 years ago. Why? I have no idea.
