Do you know the time of day? I'm already in York for @elliotjharper.bsky.social's book launch from 2-4pm and this could make it an excellent double bill!

Here's a link to Instagram if you're curious:

I'm not going to lie, it looks very silly. But you can also tell that it's actually incredibly athletic and genuinely probably insanely hard to do.

100%! The lab and the science are the prelude, the story is entirely about humanity (or a lack of it). Yes, the science is in the book but it's context, not the bulk of the story.

Trust a man to destroy a woman's greatest vision.

Based on what my wife said happens, I think Del Toro might have asked an AI to summarise the book.

It sounds like he definitely didn't read it.

I'm an hour in and must admit I'm finding it a bit bleh. As you say, excellent performances all round, especially Mia Goth (though I'm biased as I love her) but overall it feels all style and no substance.

I'm excited to watch it and see what they've done with the book!

It must have been an odd experience of being surprised by your own work!

Followed it by watching The Matrix, which, if we're being honest, is one of the best films ever made.

Literally changed cinema forever. Undoubtedly a masterpiece.
