I used to think this was a non-performance. having gotten older & learned lessons about ptsd & hypervigilance, I think it might actually be the most nuanced (and heartbreaking) performance Russell ever turned in. #soldier #kurtrussell #scifi #ptsd #hypervigilance www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzD_...

when A Taste of Honey came to the US stage in 1960, my father was tapped to create a score. it's my favorite of his work; deft arrangements, and his mixing was spot-on. still impressed w/how rich this sounds for a 65 yr old tape. #bobbyscott #atasteofhoney #musicsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHF_...

playing LEGEND OF KEEPERS. gets some flack for being too simple, but I love the rock/scissors/paper combat, visuals & sound design. every creature is really unique & the gallows humor is perfect. #legendofkeepers #managementsim #casual #videogames #indie

equating AI output with human behavior annoys me. it's like comparing an orange to a baseball. 🙄

I love how implacably polite & resolute Dorothy is in RETURN TO OZ. completely unphased by any of the dark goings-on around her, she keeps calm & carries on.👍 #returntooz #filmsky #fantasy #fairuzabalk

watched the trailer for Frankenstein & unsurprised to see what looks like another epic/operatic take on the character of Victor. I mean I get it, unavoidable maybe... but for me? I'd rather see him portrayed as a irreponsible ass, w/out all the hoopla. makes the playing god thing more ironic.

my fave of the XCOM series is Chimera Squad, because I love an underdog (and in 2025 it runs way better than 2). the more I go back & replay it, the more I appreciate it's denser, compact challenges & exotic team. it's like a Rainbow Six fanfic w/aliens. #videogames #tactics #xcom #chimerasquad

watched IMAGES ('72) - Altman captures madness here w/the eye of an impressionist painter & rhythm of a beat poet. brilliant performance by Susannah York. John Williams & Stomu Yamashta's blended score creates an indelibly eerie vibe. #robertaltman #images #psychological #horror #filmsky

trying to finish up a playthru of Star Trek: Resurgence and quit, again. whoever thought those Superman 64-ish 'fly the shuttle thru smoky rings full of lightning bolts' segments were a good idea needs a damn drug test. 😵‍💫
