We have started the studio recordings of our narrative podcast. Several recording sessions have been completed. Several more are scheduled. It’s shaping up to be a solid 10 episodes for the first season. This will be pretty darn epic for an independent #horror production

You’re both wrong! Bob is real, and he got himself channeled through the vessels called “David and Mark,” and made them tell his story!

Except, despite the fact the movie is older than the lot of them, they were well behaved: no cellphones, no excessive or loud talking, etc.
Glad DL’s work keeps finding new audiences. I don’t need their perception to affect my experience with it. Grateful I’ve got a decent 4K projector/home theater

It’s got nothing to do with approval or disapproval from me or anyone. Sorry you read that into it. It was just that it felt more like that were laughing AT the movie. It took me out of immersion entirely, so I took myself out of that experience.(300 characters isn’t enough to explain)

Leonard Nimoy was more than a colleague—he was a friend, an ally, and my political soulmate. Leonard played a half-human, half-Vulcan officer—a being caught between two worlds. Yet in his own life, he was perhaps the most profoundly human person I have ever known.

All the ingredients for SKYNET’s JUDGMENT DAY are now here, and almost all of them are in place. Every day we move closer to midnight. 🕛 Only if there’s an “afterlife” will I be able to tell you “I fucking told you so.” Let’s make sure it won’t come to that, though.

I’m not saying Bowie was the spiritual glue that held things together… but it sure feels that way.

Ten years after his death, is David Bowie’s musical legacy at risk of fading from view?
From the V&A to the Stranger Things finale, the pop icon still looms large – but with lower streaming figures than his peers, how many new listeners are discovering his music?
