These Strange New Worlds character posters for season 3 are just so gorgeous. And so appropriate. They feel modern, but also like a photoshoot they'd do in the 60s. Posing them all in his thread. #StrangeNewWorlds

I was privileged to know Gene Hackman because he played tennis with another Gene—Gene Wilder. And that Gene told him about a little role called The Blind Hermit in our movie YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN…

#ThemeParkHotTake:

Rise of the Resistance is the greatest & most detailed theme park ride - ever.

Not just the best Star Wars ride - the best theme park ride ever made, period.

I said what I said. 👏

Bleak.

I'm sorry to refer to Orwell like any terminally online idiot (which I am), but it reminds me: “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.”

NASA should be so much better than that. This is a major blow to its legacy.

One of the things I love about the excessive merchandising of pop culture is that sometimes these bits of ephemera add some richness to the story of the thing being merchandised. Case in point, the Hi-C Goonies Story Card Adventure Map 🧵

Thanks to all for your kind remembrances on this awful day. Words will come later. Only feelings at the moment. Mourn and remember him but don’t forget to celebrate too. We won’t see his like again. The man from another place has gone home. #DavidLynch #TwinPeaks

David Lynch on George Lucas approaching him to direct Return of the Jedi:

“I’ve always admired George…I was asked by George to come up to see him about directing what would be the third Star Wars. And I had next door to zero interest.”

my political stances are very common sense:

"Everything that people need to survive should be free" "lets not kill civillians" and "don't be mean to anyone"

i am sure this is very agreeable and no one will yell at me about it
