Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

#JustWatched "Send Help" (2026) 10/365. at @amctheatres.bsky.social

It's like if Sam Raimi wrote a Rom-Com. Oh wait, he directed and produced it! It's fun and definitely good "popcorn muncher" Raimi fare.

Make sure you show up 15 min early. To wait half an hour past your appt time. Then they forget exactly why you're there. And leave you alone for going on 30 min in the exam room....

It hurt finding out your creativity was unwanted. It hurt even more when you find out they decided AI did a better job than you.
