Fast food giants, you want people to come? Retro Stores! We splash around a few locations that are build like how they used to! 80s Pizza Hut down to the red cups! 90s Taco Bell in its bright color glory! McDonalds doesn't feel like a hotel lobby. Wendy's sun room! We call them restaurants again.

Guillermo del Toro refused to use VFX for the ship in 'Frankenstein' so they built one from scratch ⚓️

Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
