Oh! That's so weird, I skipped seeing it based on that trailer. That and Jared Leto being a POS. Oh well!

I feel like the premise was really boring. I've only seen the trailer, but "Tron, but in the real world" inverts the wonder and imagination that made Tron so exciting in the first place.

I am admittedly a "no movie covers" guy, but:

• The Martian film poster is just better than the book cover
• That LotR cover GOES

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

I can still remember my old landline, at least three of my mates's, my at-the-time girlfriend's (with a different area code) and my Nan's. Bless my Nan, hers is the only number that I still ring!

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

Ahh no worries! His signature isn't visible on every piece of box or promo art. But on a couple (where the crop isn't so extreme) you can spot him on that defender's shoulder pad, bottom right 🤩

The painted cover for Speedball 2 was done by Glenn Fabry. All time heroic British comics artist. Slaine, Hellblazer, Batman vs Dredd. Killer artist!

Happy birthday to Wood 2! Not to be confused with the lesser known, Doom 2, also released on this day in 1994. ❤️

Criticised at the time for being too similar to the original Wood, Wood 2 is a stone cold classic for the more inventive forest design, new trees and double chainsaw alone.

💀 New video! 💀
I made a video about Little Big Adventure (AKA Relentless). A fantastic #DOSgaming Adventure from 1994. The sweetest aesthetic twinned with an incredibly grim dark setting. A really great mix!
