Simply start your movie with a new actor and after +/- 5 minutes of intrigue, have him identify himself with 1.5 units of his name. Easy!
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Oooh! I’ve been waiting for this one to arrive! I hear good sci-fi rumblings about this one.

The most absurd thing about Cuomo saying his opponent is inexperienced is that Mamdani keeps dropping a load of bricks on Cuomo's head every time he turns around, old school take no prisoners style.
In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.
She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.
So I confronted him.

If I find out you were recording me with Meta glasses and you have gone to the trouble of disabling the recording light, I will break your Meta glasses while they are still on your face.
Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses usually include an LED that lights up when the user is recording other people. One hobbyist is charging a $60 to disable that light, and has a growing list of customers around the country.

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

I’m no movie art expert, but the thing that always grabbed me about Drew Struzan’s art was that the figures in his work always looked like they were made of light. (Yeah yeah, “luminous beings.”)
It’s a quality that, of course, maps to movie imagery so perfectly.

Cheetah & Cheshire Rob the Justice League is the kind of book I have sorely missed - @gregrucka.com and @nicolascottart.bsky.social just nailing their own little corner of the DC universe. Issue 3 was beautiful and lived-in and fully realized. And a cameo from the Black Magick logo too. Gimme more.

“Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra.”
To shut down rude behavior instantly, try a simple yet powerful five-word response.
Use this 5-word phrase when someone is rude to you—it's like 'holding up a mirror,' says public speaking expert
When we encounter a rude person, our first instinct might be to fire back with a snarky comment. But that's not the right move, says public speaking expert John Bowe. Here's the perfect response to instantly shut down rude behavior.

I realize there's a lot going on but I want streamers to stop alphabetizing movies so that anything with a "the" in the title ends up in the Ts.

Once again, the moderate position is for ICE to be abolished and Border Patrol to be gutted, and massive civil rights prosecutions leading to prison time. Anybody running on anything less is kicking the can down the road.

Today in 1983 Stanislav Petrov saved the human race.
On duty at the Soviet early warning command centre, he refused to warn superiors of radar reports of an incoming US strike. It proved to be a false alarm. If the Soviets had responded it would have been all out nuclear war.

Alan's scripts were conversations with the artist, and as such, highly readable and pleasurable to work from. Here's a scan of pg. 1 of SAGA OF THE SWAMP THING #20, Alan's first-ever issue, when he didn't know who the artist would end up being (it was Dan Day, pencils, John Totleben, inks)...

At school a teacher gave us part of an Alan Moore Swamp Thing script for an assignment. It was detailed, but not like this. I loved doing that homework. Working with @stephenrbissette.bsky.social & John Totleben, his scripts were full of helpful scene-building detail. Inspiring, not smothering!
