I did spot that, and immediately added it to my watch list. I'm sure there'll also be a 3rd installment. Everything is a trilogy these days!

The Old Guard - I didn't know what to expect, just I certainly wasn't expecting Dudley Dursley! Some of the dialogue was a bit special in places, but on the whole I liked the concept and the film. 100 years frommnow, eh?

On Friday I’m going to have a premium newsletter with a generous (2600 word) free intro about the nasty demands of Sam Altman and OpenAI. They need $161 billion in the next six months - it’s the only way for them to complete any of the plans they have agreed to. A truly nonsensical time.

Misery - I think I've only seen this once before, years ago as it scared me half to death. Terrifyingly superb with some fab humour. It's the sweet & innocent you need to be wary of - can you imagine if she had social media!? PSY.CHO.TIC. "You dirty bird." 🫣

🧵 I love vibrant colours & the excitement they provide, as well as learning about the mythology & art of ancient Gaelic times. Such as at Glendalough [my pic]. These things have a massive impact on my own art.

You’ll see that influence in this thread of one-off ink drawings if you scroll down! [1]
