I took a different route with mine to go with my army theme, but I'm a big fan of them and definitely feel the stargate vibe from your ones

Watching the coverage of Eternal Weekend is definitely showing that the format needs a selection of bans to fix it.

I didn't think you were diminishing at all :)

I have seen all three of those and like them all in their own ways.

Rewatced event horizon as the first movie of Halloween month for me lol

I like many facets, I'd probably lean more towards cinematography but when it has a narrative underpinning it's even better.

I like The Exorcist and Exorcist III.

If you have any suggestions, always happy to add stuff to the watch list :)

Would that be the same French president who conspired with the far right to appoint a right leaning PM after the Democratic vote by the people saw the left wing party win?

I say this as someone who plays 60 card formats and gave up on commander a long time ago.

I know I'm a minority among magic players now, and that's OK. I think it's possible to shift approach and cater better to everyone whilst acknowledging that commander is the main sales point.

Crucible Of Words @crucibleofwords.bsky.social · 8h

Given the fact that Magic is now the commander game with other formats being the outliers, I think WotC should embrace it.

Maybe we get three big sets a year specifically for 60 card formats, but everything else is just commander legal but not 60 card legal.

Commander sets still draft tho

Whenever someone says they don't have a political ideology, chances are they are the easiest mark for propaganda that you've ever seen and have a world view entirely based on slurping up stuff and calling it "common sense" or "sensible pragmatism

The EU-Commission wants to negotiate a very sensitive agreement that would allow US authorities direct (!) access to police-stored fingerprints & facial images in Europe.
Potentially, all travelers could be affected by this #EBSP – and people in need for protection.

Jaws for sure is up there.

I disagree with the others tho.

I think The Shining is one of the top 100 pieces of cinema of all time (also Jaws is on that list) and just wondered if people had other horror movies they believed should be on such a list so I can watch them :D

Crucible Of Words @crucibleofwords.bsky.social · 10h

Are there any horror films that are as high in quality as The Shining?

I certainly haven't found any (unless you class Cremator and Come and See as horror)

The only reason you think this is the right strategy is because you are ideologically on the right and opposed to progressive policies.

Of course anything that says "punch left embrace the right" is going to resonate with you, even when the numbers show it's destroying Labour

You aren't nationalizing the rolling stock, so this will not change ticket prices or stop the massive profits that exploitative private service providers are taking in.

The policy is useless and just a PR scam whilst nothing improves.
