I had that model as a kid! Used to play with it all the time. Thanks for reminding me of it 🙂
Good lord
You think scams are bad for seniors now just wait until “agentic” AI becomes more widespread.
Good article. I understand why they didn’t do it, but it always frustrated me that UMD versions of movies weren’t ever packed in with DVD’s as a “have your movies at home and on the go” kind of a thing. I would have happily paid a little extra for that.
I played the shit out of that album in college. That was one of my favorites on the album
Name a film flop that you wish had done better at the box office. It’s a crime that this didn’t do better in theaters. It was nearly a perfect film as is but the Director’s Cut managed to make it even better. One of a handful of films I can recite line by line from memory.
They try to take away the coolest generational moniker. Tod Perry? Likely a jealous Gen Z kid.
Duran’s presence has made me giddy. It’s the most optimistic I’ve been all season
Spider-Man: Homecoming, Peter goes to pick up Liz for the prom and Michael Keaton (Toomes) answers the door. There was an audible gasp across the whole theater and the guy in front of me yelled out “Oh SHIT!” I couldn’t stop laughing at his reaction. It still makes me laugh now writing this out.
Avengers: Endgame, opening night, packed AMC theater on West 42nd St in Manhattan. The place erupted when Cap grabbed Mjölnir. Then minutes later, “On your left…” started an outburst that grew as each character came back and into full on bedlam when Spider-Man appeared. It was electric.
There was a PlayStation version coming in the 2010’s. PS3 or PS4, most likely PS4 but I can’t remember which right now. I played it at E3 and it was fantastic. Don’t know why it was never released. I have the PR info sheet in a box in the attic, I’ll have to dig it out.
I saw those two together like that in the theaters. One of my best movie experiences. The friend I went with doesn’t remember it and thought I was crazy the last time I brought it up a few years ago

Like I said to Q, if anything, they underplayed what a mess it is. It’s pretty unbelievable
Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)
Loved that one
I think that’s why he looks much better with a beard. It kinda covers up the differences

Continuing #Atari 5200 maintenance/repairs, testing is fun!
Getting back to the #Atari 5200, the RF Shield is off. Man that was a pain. There’s a lot more going on in here than I expected. Really cool to see it. Now to start futzing with specific chips to see if I can get the controller issues fixed.

Ha! My 4 port #Atari 5200 was modified to accept the 2600 adapter almost exactly 41 years ago. I love this machine ❤️
With guidance from Best Electronics, doing some diagnostic work and cleanup of my original four port Atari 5200 from 1983. Having intermittent joystick issues that are often motherboard related. Wish me luck!
They really went out on a limb there with that prediction
I’m up for it
Hard agree. I loved it the first time I saw it. Probably because I went in knowing nothing about it beyond Nolan, space, black holes. It surprised and delighted me throughout and as a parent, the ending always devastates me

Good to see
I was fortunate enough to have talked with him on several occasions. Always a friendly and inquisitive guy. Plus he always replied to any Tweet I made when arriving at an event (E3, PlayStation Experience, etc.) Something he didn’t need to do but I always enjoyed and appreciated it.
Before the internet, people tried to convince me I was making it up, but I never forgot it
Some genuinely terrible people whining about the "block culture" here on Bluesky is how you know the block culture is working, keep blocking those genuinely terrible people, folks, soon the only people they'll be able to bother here is each other
