When I say "pretty good" I mean a smidge better than many of the very satisfying fan restorations and lightyears better than previous official restorations where the colors are all wacky.

Somebody on reddit leaked these screenshots from an alleged restoration of the original Star Wars films Disney is working on right now. Their story is a little sus and there's lots of debate re: authenticity but I think these shots look pretty good, whatever they are.

Screenshot from alleged official restoration of Star Wars (1977). It is a scene of the rebel troops in the beginning preparing their defense for Imperials boarding their ship.

Screenshot from alleged official restoration of Star Wars (1977). It is a desert scene of R2-D2 and C-3PO.

Screenshot from alleged official restoration of The Empire Strikes Back (1980). Princess Leia and Han Solo aboard the Millennium Falcon. Han is piloting the ship and Leia is behind him, tending to C-3PO but turning her head to look at whatever is going on outside the canopy window.

Screenshot from alleged official restoration of Return of The Jedi (1983). It's an overhead shot of the Sarlacc Pit. Luke is fighting a bunch of dudes on an air boat with his green lightsaber.

Little Donny Trump shuffles down the street with his hands in his pockets, hunched over, kicking rocks.

"Awww, they'd never let a bum like me into a great place like Heaven. I was a dummy to even think I might make Heaven."

Tears streak his puffier than usual eyes. He sniffles for dramatic effect.

Al Pacino says in his memoir that after he went bankrupt, Diane Keaton gloriously went off on his entertainment lawyer. “Yeah, you’re going to tell me, ‘Oh, he’s an artist.’ No. He. Is. An idiot.”

“Arthur began to explain that I was insolvent, due to mismanagement of my assets. He didn’t play a part in it, I know that. But the words just washed right over me.
Diane, however, was furious. She got up from her seat, and she started to question him: “How could this happen?” He was hemming and hawing, well, you know, this and that.
She just exploded. She went up to Arthur and was now face-to-face with him. She backed him into a corner of his office, pointed at me, and said, “Do you know who he is?”
He said, “Well, you know.”
She was practically grabbing him by the lapels: “No, tell me who he is.” He started to speak, but Diane jumped in again: “Yeah, you’re going to tell me, ‘Oh, he’s an artist.’ No. He. Is. An idiot.”
I just stood there. What could I say?
Diane went on: “He’s an ignoramus. When it comes to this, you’ve got to take care of him.”

I remember making my mom rent Baby Boom when I was like eight or nine because I knew Egon from Ghostbusters was in it. She was a little nervous because it was rated R but then we watched it and it was really tame. Realized later it was prob rated R b/c it's about a woman who can think for herself.

Rob Dean @neuroticmonkey.bsky.social · 2d

We watched BABY BOOM *a lot* growing up. So I was shocked to see the goofy woman in other work like ANNIE HALL, THE GODFATHER movies, LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR, and more.

Diane Keaton was an incredible talent who always found ways to highlight the humanity of her characters. So it goes.

Sorry I haven't kept up with the landscaping. It's just that America is under Nazi occupation so it seems a little fruitless, y'know what I'm saying? No, I agree river rock would look tight as fuck if I dug out that hedge bed. It's just, y'know, the Nazi menace.

And you can yell about clean air everywhere, which also has a number of health benefits including vastly reduced disease transmission for everyone, which helps people who can’t mask (like, say, small children). Not all infrastructure changes need the government. Bring AQ monitors and filters!

Elana Levin @levin.bsky.social · 2d

And while we need to work together to bring about collective change and restore public health and science YOU too can literally start wearing a mask again tomorrow anywhere we share air, regardless of what anyone else does. You too can break a chain of transmission. So what choice will
You make?

I believe this because, as my wife likes to point out, this guy does not experience stress like a normal human. He doesn't think he's ever done anything wrong in his life, he truly believes he's smart and good at business and loved by everyone who knows his name.

Trump, 79, has "cardiac age" of 65-year-old, doctor says

Donald Trump was found to be in "exceptional health" in a medical evaluation, the U.S. president's doctor said in a memo released by the White House on Friday, with his "cardiac age" 14 years younger than in "chronological age."

When we went to the doctor the other day we asked if their pharmacy had the latest COVID vaccine.

"We have it, but we can't give it out."

"Why?"

"We need permission."

I came very close to asking, "From who? The roadkill munching psychopath?" But I mean I know the answer to that is probably yes.

The Muppets had their glory years and now we all argue over their diminishing returns. Look, I laughed at a couple jokes in that movie with the evil Kermit and the Muppet concentration camp. And there was some funny stuff in that Office ripoff they did.
