Just seeking what passes for human interaction in these end times. Film geek, comic book dork, Star Trek nerd, horror movie dweeb.

I don’t care if bluesky if a left wing echo chamber. I’m middle age and the right wing hasn’t had a good idea, ever. Now? They’re offering nothing more than hate and bigotry. Don’t believe anyone who tells you that you need that shit in your life. They’re just a bigot trying to sell you hate.

Yay, i guess. Don’t really think this will stop anything and unclear why it took so long to decide a thing that seems blatantly obvious, but yay!

RIP Scott Spiegel. He made a lot of fun b-movies and helped bring one of my all-time favorites, EVIL DEAD II, to life. That, and he *almost* got a free pizza courtesy of Spider-Man. search.app/GZ6JQ

And I don’t *just* mean the laying still trying not to blink or be seen breathing for the month they filmed or whatever, though also that. I mean the micro expression changes. He changes it just slightly enough to punctuate a joke and but never enough that you’re certain that he’s doing anything.

I’m not pretending the movie is a timeless classic for the ages but I legit believe Terry Kiser should have gotten a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for Weekend At Bernie’s. Not a win, but a nod. He is the funniest part of the movie and this performance had to have been HARD.

RWing Blinded By the Light I love this movie. It’s so deeply sincere cheeseball I just smile life a doofus half the movie.

Also, how much do we think WB made this summer in Superman merch? Toys, comics, shirts, popcorn buckets, etc? Why don’t we count that towards the money the movie generated..? Is it because no one wants to release those figures less someone deserving asks for a raise?

Richard Swift (@swiftofopal.bsky.social) reply parent
I also find it increasingly goofy that we have to pretend a theater box office is the only place a movie makes money. It’s just where a studio has to do the least amount of splitting. Digital rentals, sales, blurays and 4ks, streaming service runs, all generate millions more.

Absolutely recommend the last episode, King’s third ending for The Stand now? Easily the best in my mind. The rest… Prime example that some stories are meant to be a linear journey.
Richard Swift (@swiftofopal.bsky.social) reply parent
The last episode is written by King and is all new material and fantastic. Big fan of some of the casting, Greg Kinnear in particular, but they changed the structure entirely (potentially because of the pandemic?) which just completely gutted any impact to the story or relating to the characters.
