This looks like an AI rendition of Andrea Jenkyns' performance of I'm An Insomniac.
These people all go to rich people megachurches so they have no idea how freaky this looks to normal people

I thought the homemade eerie gothy minimalism and propulsive post-punk of 'Area Silenzio' by eat-girls would have made it my album of 2025. And it probably would have done had it not been released in November last year. I am so bad at these things...

Can't help but feel that the wolf should have concerned himself with the opinion of the sheep on this one.

David Walliams' real surname is actually the more common Williams so it was quite considerate of him to change it to something unique so anyone called David Williams wouldn't have to add "Not THAT one" to their bio.

Ah yes, just ignore that pesky "everything".

Don't know who the guy in the middle is but he's like those people who, even during the hottest summer days, still take a big coat out with them because "it might get chilly later".

It did lead to lots of memes though so maybe CBS will re-release it like Sony did with Morbius.

Not a line-reading but Derek Smalls being a pipe-smoker is one of those tiny but utterly chefs-kiss perfect details that make you realise you're in the hands of someone who knows exactly what they're doing. RIP RR.

Always assumed this podcast is dogshit so never listened. Is this a regular bit where they speculate on how the current political landscape would affect 1980s British comedy characters? 

"So, Rachel Reeves' budget: How do you think this would affect Hale & Pace's two Rons?"
“He was grotesque. He was vulgar. But why shouldn't Loadsamoney, why shouldn't Harry Enfield's plasterer, have been a natural Labour voter?”

Once a joke on Thatcherism, is this now sort of person being “screwed” by the economy under Labour?

On the day Princess Diana died, I went to a screening of French hitman film Wild Target and can still remember the awkward silence following the comedy death-by-car-crash scene.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

RIP Peter Greene
Share a 90s film you think deserves more love.

Scattered with fragmentation and disturbing ambiguity but ultimately a humane portrait of schizophrenia (which also contains one of the most near-unwatchable scenes in film history). Peter Greene - normally cast as scary weirdos - is heartbreaking.

The Russo Brothers spent over $500 million of Netflix's money on The Gray Man and The Electric State which feels like a much more egregious scam.
A Hollywood director was convicted on charges that he scammed Netflix out of $11 million for a show that never materialized, while he instead used the cash for lavish purchases that included several Rolls-Royces, a Ferrari and about $1 million in mattresses and luxury bedding.

In a further comment his publicist added: "He narrated War Of The Worlds that time, as well. I suppose you think this means he endorses Martian invasions too.... No, *you're* stupid"
UPDATE: Neeson’s publicist provided a post-publication comment that we have added to the story.

“He did not shape the film’s editorial content, and any questions about its claims or messaging should be directed to the producers.”

They're not making The Shipping News 2, Judi. Deal with it.
Veteran actress Dame Judi Dench said she’s forgiven Harvey Weinstein after his rape conviction and argued that Kevin Spacey has been “exonerated” in a new interview.

Many people correctly pointed out that Dean Cain betrayed the values of Superman by joining ICE yet I'm not seeing anything about Michael Crawford pissing on the legacy of Condorman.

Never visited the Metaverse so don't know if it had its own version of 'Cleggmania'. Probably explains a lot if it did.
