I decided to read the Deadline review that this pull quote is pulled from and it's not a great piece of writing. It also mentions both The Exorcist and Passion of the Christ in the review.
Film sounds like it could be more interesting than this promotion implies though
Not to trot out the “people will tweet anything” meme, but…

I wish the account that posted C&H comics on here was more like the Nancy one and refrained from unfunny captions that feel a bit gpt-y and make me cringe whenever I repost a good comic

In today's lecture I tried to say frontier and outback in the same sentence but said frontback by accident

Seeing Morocco on this list has reminded me that, somewhere in my folder of teaching clips, I have a file titled Gary Cooper Bi Panic.mp4

Had one of annoying colds that makes work hard but not impossible, meaning I'm grumpy about not having time to update my Australian Action Cinema lecture this year and just had the absolutely deranged thought "Maybe I should watch Wake in Fright to cheer myself up"

Just remembered I own a 3D printer
Orks should have trains and they should be called Trainz and the model should be covered in grots (little space gremlin dudes) and at least one of them should have stripey dungarees, a hat, and a red neckerchief
Convinced a subsection of Warhammer Guys are just Model Train Guys Trying Really Hard NOT To Be Model Train Guys

Incredible, really.

“There’s clearly something political about it but nobody knows what it is,” said the restaurant manager.
It’s the exclusive everyone wanted, the story that will win next year’s Pulitzer…

I can reveal London’s giant AI generated Christmas artwork, the subject of much online mockery, is being torn down - and I honestly *genuinely* think you’ll never guess why. www.londoncentric.media/p/ai-artwork...
London's giant AI artwork to be torn down
The bizarre story of why a much-talked-about creation is being torn down. Plus: Docklands Light Railway extension, giant laser stalks the night sky, and more tales of Android phone theft rejection.

The initial image of light coalescing into a bird has big 70s children's tv show about paganism vibes. Just needs a library music backing track
Someone's keen! Not even light yet 😴

Spent a good portion of my lecture yesterday telling my students about Fearless Nadia/Mary Ann Evans and lamenting that I still can't track down a copy of Hunterwali.
Any advice on sourcing this 1930s Indian stunt film, for research?

The year is 3035. Corporations have replaced nations. All religions are subscription services. Amazon is reportedly struggling to think of a way to bring the PontiffPrime back from the dead after the permanent exit of @YahBoyDaPope II in the previous installment
