If you're looking for good new movies on streaming this week. Both Steve and The Woman In Cabin 10 on Netflix are fantastic.

Looking at the YouTube comments of #StarTrek Starfleet Academy, and to loosely quote Jay-Z, "If you want the old shit, buy the old albums."

I'm not really surprised by this. Mary Wiseman hasn't been involved in any of the Starfleet Academy panels or promotion since the show was officially announced. It's sounding like this appearance is either one that will set up a larger Season 2 role, or just to satisfy her storyline in Discovery.

Tilly being in only one episode sounds a lot like the tradition for new Star Trek series premieres (when close in the timeline):

-- McCoy helped premiere TNG
-- Picard helped premiere DS9
-- Quark helped premiere Voyager

Ed and Lorraine Warren's impact on the modern horror genre is undeniable. It's a shame they're largely regarded as frauds in real life.

Pretty scary when you consider thus far they've labeled anyone who disagrees with them as such.

the president, the sec of state, and a random reporter are casually discussing whether to designate antifa a foreign terrorist organization

What is it with possessed people in horror movies being so good at catching flies?

Watching The Amityville Horror (1979), and I'm beginning to think this priest needs to see a doctor.

Is this where all the #StarTrek fans are now? I swear I lost track of a lot of you over on X, and I legit just have no idea which platform has the most of the people I care about. Can anyone weigh in?

Read a comment recently that Gen Z is too afraid to engage in anything the masses perceive as "cringe," and it's so true. They base their entire personality off the most liked statement in a comment section and that's really sad.

With the news that Robert Downey Jr. is writing backstory to his version of Doctor Doom, this #StarTrek fan talked about Patrick Stewart's involvement in Jean-Luc Picard's story in his revival and how that played out.

There are comparisons to be made.

Apologies for being quiet on here for a bit. Been working on getting moved and settled in the new place. Rest assured it’ll be back to the #StarTrek and #DoctorWho scoops you love VERY soon.

I know it's probably not possible with jersey rules, but the #Pacers should be able to wear their Hickory jerseys to honor Gene Hackman at their next home game.

When The Pacers win but you’re low-key obsessed with The Traitors and miss the fourth quarter.

I was listening to The D-Con Chamber over the weekend and heard Christina Chong mention she was initially disappointed with La'an's scenes in "Subspace Rhapsody." Did a small write-up for those who want to read.

I don't know why I thought it was so funny but they showed Chris Pine on the SNL 50 red carpet and just put "Hosted 1 Time." It felt so shady lmao #StarTrek

Whoever decided The White Lotus Season 3 and SNL’s 50th Anniversary should air at the same time hates liberals.

My Valentine's Day self-care means throwing my lounging blanket in the laundry, so it'll be fresh and comfy later tonight.
