@dominicknero.bsky.social on the Mirror of Galadriel —

“It has the vision of fantasy; it has direct, unfiltered communication of the text; and it has [Jackson's trademark] old fashioned, practical effects, stagecraft horror... all of that together represents, to me, the full effort of this film”

it's movie 2 of our rings trilogy on @eyeoftheduckpod.com this week and man do i miss this era of digital effects. it seems so long ago! vfx artists were given the time and resources to actually produce miracles like gollum and they didnt even need to boil the ocean with AI to do it
Forth Eorlingas! This week we toss Gimli face first into the forces of the Enemy.

It’s another four hour tour of Middle Earth with THE TWO TOWERS, and this time we brought Ents!

something that keeps me hopeful is watching my toddler discover art. he loves making things. by the time he comes of age, ppl will have grown so sick of low-effort ai generated slop and fascistic advertising propaganda that the arts will be flourishing again. his generation is going to make it

2026 is here, which means it’s the 25th anniversary of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings films! we’re dropping the first of our three FOUR-HOUR episodes on the trilogy today over on @eyeoftheduckpod.com 👑💍
Listeners, the Third Age is finally upon us. The nine companions are assembled. The recording is 4 hours long. It shall be… The Fellowship of the Duck!

This week, we're embarking on a quest to save Middle-Earth and somehow make sense of the greatest trilogy in movie history.

the strategy to distract from the epstein files by starting an illegal war with venezuela is so shamelessly obvious it's hilarious. how braindead does he think we are? he truly believes he can cancel out being a pedophile by being a war criminal. flawless plan mr president
It’s January 3, 2026, and the Trump DOJ continues to violate the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

in 2026 its no longer “buddy” or “bro” or “my guy”. this year we’re saying “my lord”

we've been doing @eyeoftheduckpod.com for 5 years now and it just so happens that episode 250 coincides with the release of my co-host's feature debut, Drink and Be Merry (which i edited!)

so this week, @adamvole.com and i are celebrating the movie with guest host @dodgyboffin.com! very surreal 🎅
Happy holidays! Adam made a feature film and we’re (finally) going to celebrate it in style. It’s a bonus episode of holly jolly drinks and independent film, with very special guest host (and our old friend) Sarah Welch-Larson!

beatles fans never talk about how even though ringo might have been the worst musician of the group, he was the only one who was pure of heart and humble enough to carry the ring to mordor. hence his name

it’s crazy meeting people who tell you they’re “bi” because it’s like uhhhhh okay buddy unless you’re robin williams trapped inside a robot’s body i don’t think you’re the bicentennial man

it’s honestly insane how accurately tim and eric predicted the ai era with this sketch. a braindead corporate guy clocking in to generate completely pointless slop and the ai is so bad it ends up glitching out and destroying itself. also it inevitably just becomes porn. extremely prophetic

im developing a theory that there will be a berenstain bears / sinbad "shazaam" type situation where in a decade or so, people will mistakenly remember this movie being about mark wahlberg stopping the 9/11 planes

seeing a lot of posts about how funny it is that this random scene in pluribus is so gorgeous and colorful. just wanna say there's no reason tv (or film) cant look like this all the time. in fact i think this used to be the standard and this scene is only surprising bc the bar has gotten so low

something ppl who arent video editors probably dont know about is how projects in adobe premiere can become haunted. something will happen where everything just starts acting insane and there's no way of fixing it. youll get notes back on a video and have to be like, "cant do it. project's haunted."

i don’t know if people outside of new york hear the ads on the radio but “spektor and associates” sounds like how gandalf would describe a ghost army

i love how literally every major corporation on earth is putting the majority of their investment dollars in artificial intelligence and yet we still don’t have functional voice-to-text. ill say my sons name to siri and it’ll type something insane like “baby beef man”
