Happy pride! πŸ––

Bringing back this old comic for Flag Day πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

I *think* this is what I'm settling on for May's best first-time viewings - Chungking Express, Videodrome, Jin-Roh, and Joint Security Area, in no particular order - but since almost every movie I watch is a first-timer this could change at any moment

bringing this over

oh hi The end of May means Ghost in the Shell 2 and a revisit of Perfect Blue (still the best Satoshi Kon film imo), plus checking out a few things about to leave the Criterion Channel with Dancer in the Dark (*oof*) and Mifune. Did I watch the latter just to make a dumb joke? maybe boxd.it/5Jk7H

I want this plus a little shop somewhere that sells every item in the game, including key items you shouldn't have yet or have already used, but the shop's location and selection changes randomly

Anyway πŸ–ŠοΈπŸ¦‘

The AI bros aren't good at anything creative and resent everyone who is. Their dream is, "type in a prompt and make the movie/album/picture you want." Sure, that'd be neat, but I want art *better* than I could've thought of. That'll only come from people better than me at making the art.

I've never seen a shower argument play out in the dry world before

If Shakespeare were writing for games today he would have been laid off six months ago

I was extremely tempted by this $1 copy of Audition that features a cover so ill-conceived and poorly executed that it got misfiled into the Young Adult section,

Guess we gotta keep up the sentiment that GenAI sucks so that more companies start to feel it.

hello delicious friends It was a (mostly) star-studded week: David Cronenberg's first truly great one in Videodrome; a revisit of Ghost in the Shell after 20-ish years; Jin-Roh capped one of cinema's more unsung trilogies in powerful fashion; and Belladonna of Sadness, uh, well- boxd.it/5Jk7H

older guy in front of me at grocery store dripping sweat in a tank top with a USMC tattoo just bought a head of lettuce and 4 half price bottles of vodka with an amex black card and his lock screen was a picture of the muppet Beaker

1am, going back for more macaronis 🀀

I can't believe I never covered this when I featured #StarTrekTNG's "Datalore" a few years ago, so here it comes! :-)

Update to the Brian Eno AI message.

Own a piece of history

I think so many House Democrats have died recently because of a broken heart. πŸ’” And old age. Mostly that, in fact. 99%.

You heard the man

Vancouver council is debating a giant permanent sign that says "VANCOUVER", and staff say an issue is putting the sign in a place that won't interfere with film shoots. In other words, a giant "VANCOUVER" sign could interfere with vancouver's lucrative business of pretending to be any other city

i was not familiar with your game ken jennings

Makes sense since Satoshi Kon died 15 years ago and he’s gotta get new ideas from somewhere

what randy's doing here is actually a sales technique that dates all the way back to the middle ages. google "randy pitchford medieval times" if you want to see him talk about it

Since the term AI has been poisoned by generative world-burning stuff, we're going to have to go back to calling video game AI routines "the computer." I couldn't beat the final boss because the computer was being cheap, etc.

Overheard someone say the word "glamping" out loud for the first time today and it forced my brain into a brief reboot loop

Happy 20th to the single greatest frame in movie history
