Trillion-dollar snake oil
And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting.

In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

In the minority here but I really loved How To Make A Killing.

It's not the kill-the-rich story people wanted and its not some thriller the trailer made it seem to be. But its Glen Powell's best since Hit Man and its packed with dark and dry humor.

My review 👇🏾👇🏾
How To Make A Killing (2026) Review: Glen Powell at His Best
How To Make A Killing (2026) is a film made by its cast, and it excels thanks to Glen Powell's inability to be anything but likable.

I have left a bad employer due to frequent injury and poor treatment. I need raise $600 by March 4th to cover part of my rent. I'm looking for work that I can physically do. I'm a trans guy and a wannabe artist looking to restart my patreon and seeking job recs in pdx. Thank you for help ❤️
I am extremely worried about rent, cat food, my burnout, all of it. I am short on all rent and bills and I have to leave my job or I'll die. If you can help me through this, I am grateful

To avoid the obvious, we'll say Halloween Kills
fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

Reminder to other indie dev teams especially new teams. Most of us are happy to share advice and give feedback on publisher/funding/platform deals and terms. There are some shady predatory biz weasels that will take advantage of you as soon as your game starts to pop off. Please reach out.

RIP Tom Noonan, a friend for 18 years. Often typecast as villains, he was an actor's actor, a unique playwright & filmmaker, a gifted composer, and a pianist with a sweet voice. My kids & I used to go to his tiny apartment for dinner (pizza). We'd have a few drinks & he'd start to play. Magic.

Amish Paradise for sure, but the Phantom Menace one (The Saga Begins?) is a close second
you are all fools the REAL music question that will cause intergenerational warfare on bluesky is actually: what is weird al's signature song?

I think I’ve heard one bad Bond theme, *maybe* two (Man with the Golden Gun)
Just listened to a podcast about the film GoldenEye where they all agreed the theme tune was terrible. Unforgivable.

A super easy to use game engine for Nintendo 64 released! ✨ I tried loading in my #gameassets to see if they're compatible but it seems they'll need some manual adjusting, hope that gets fixed in the future.

Damn, did we lose Duvall? One of the icons of '70s cinema, but he remained iconic on through most of the years that followed. Outstanding in THX, Godfather, a ton of Westerns, Days of Thunder... Like James Earl Jones or Christopher Walken, his voice was his real instrument, and he used it so well.
Like Hackman & Sutherland, Robert Duvall is an actor's actor. With stealthy precision, he slid into any ensemble, did the work, & made it look so effortless that often, it took us a second or third viewing to really see just how much he makes moments work, like one of my faves in GODFATHER. #RIP
