Still half thinking about the facehugger size issue. How did it evolve to be human head sized? Who was it feeding on originally?
(Obviously they just didn't consider it in the film design and it's a macguffin, but it's a nice thing to mull)

They Live is a fantastic film but every time I introduce it to a Gen Z friend I'm reminded that the plot boils down to, "two hobos carry out a series of workplace mass shootings because they believe half the population are aliens wearing human skin"

I saw that one too. That was some level of hubris

My missus was telling me that the Warren's museum is now in private hands. Hopefully its still blessed once a week by a priest :D

Google tells me it's Annabelle Creation, which aside from the clever ending, wasn't very good.

There's an easter egg in one of the films with an actual raggedy ann doll. Couldn't tell you which one though as I watched all 4 and the 3 Annabel films over the last month :P

11 years ago I took this photo. As I was saying to @grumpyrocker.bsky.social at the weekend, by not meeting up in about 16 years, he entirely missed the comedy moustache phase...

I'll be re-celebrating my 50th next January as it didn't go to plan this year (middle of the 2nd worst bout of food poisoning I've ever had!). Hope you have a great one on Monday!!

it's crazy how fast movies become dated. for instance, the 2021 movie "Don't Look Up" no longer makes sense, because if an American scientist discovered a planet-killing comet heading towards us today, their main response would be "oh thank fuck for that"

"Can you make me look better than I do on television? I look rather scraggy, like a ghost."
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because you have a head like a skull."
"Does not everyone have a head like a skull?"
"No."

New Netflix comedy crime drama. Won't make a second season, even with the Doctor Who tribute tank top.

OpenAI will never turn a profit. Even with Microsoft giving it Azure compute more or less for free, it still loses $3 for ever $1 of income...at a gross level. And the costs don't scale, servicing 1m customers will still have the same compute per customer cost as servicing 100k customers.

From Donald Trump's Roundtable on Antifa just now —
"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

I walked into the lounge last night to find my teenage son watching this. We have long admired @kurzgesagt.org and found their videos to be extremely illuminating. But this one in particular I think is so important right now!

Is this branching off from the film or SG1? I struggle to keep up.
