Christopher Lee! LOTR and 260+ others, the man's a legend. Plus you get a bunch of Peter Cushing films as a bonus
This is a Bill Simmons game, but you’re stranded on a desert island. You can only have one actor’s filmography. You get it all, including cameos. But just the one performer.
I’m taking Cate Blanchett: Talented Mr. Ripley, LOTR, Life Aquatic, Black Bag, Tár, Ponyo, Hot Fuzz, Eyes Wide Shut, Thor

I'd love for people to dress nicely and be courteous on airplanes. But when passengers are cattle, screened and herded into **utter garbage** sardine-class seating, some cavemanish behavior is bound to slip. Remember kids, air travel was enshittified by airlines first, people second

HPPA's Harry made the most of the last eruption of #Kīlauea at our partner Hawai'i Volcanoes NP by getting out to the crater rim in time to catch the #lava fountains during their short few-hour window. 🌋🔥
Harry calls this photo: Enjoying Pele's show at our park. ✨
