Obsessed enough with the @reelblend.bsky.social pod to make LEGO sigfigs (signature Minifigures) of the crew. Going to miss the weekly pod. Wishing @seanoconnell.bsky.social good luck with his new position at CBR.
Final episode tomorrow 2/28/2025.
Did you know they started as an awards podcast? 😉😉😉

Time for some news

After 15 years at CinemaBlend, it’s time for a change. It has been an absolute honor to help lead that site. From top to bottom, it’s one of the most talented, passionate, creative, hilarious and resourceful teams in the business. Working with them made me better every day.

With that thunderous alley-oop dunk, Otega Oweh hits 10 points for the night.

He's now scored in double figures in all 24 games for UK this season, and in 25 straight games dating back to his time at Oklahoma.

Half the job of breaking into writing is figuring out how to break into writing. Just writing isn't enough. There is no one way in. There are hundreds. And figuring out which way will work best for you and your work is the trick of it. Every one of us has a very different story about how we did it.

I’m starting to allow myself to believe that Thunderbolts will be Guardians-level fun.

I was today years old when I realized Ralph Macchio’s underappreciated 1986 movie Crossroads was directed by the legend, Walter Hill. That explains so much.

Anyway, the SINNERS trailer drops soon. And I hope Crossroads is streaming, somewhere.

in other news, given the flood pouring down upon us, I stuck with my hopeful intention of not checking the news or bluesky until after work, which means I wrote about 2000 words today, an entire chapter, on my current WIP. I consider this part of the resistance.

I understand that ChatGPT is down and fortunately this is not a problem for me as I have spent considerable time developing a local language model that I am able to run autonomously, fueled by cynicism, sarcasm, and an obscene amount of pop-culture minutiae.

It was my number one movie of 2024. Intelligent, ruthless, insightful, candid, gross, bold, unapologetic, and hilarious. Everyone needs to see THE SUBSTANCE #filmsky
Everyone is entitled to their opinion and it's the internet, but if I see one more man posting about how terrible THE SUBSTANCE is because it's just a gorefest with no important social commentary or that women hate themselves - honey, you missed the ENTIRE point of the movie. Sit down. 🎥 #filmsky
