I’ve been playing too much SILKSONG
Quintillion Hammer - Dnovramn'zurneul Vraaz
2022
I’m not surprised that LITTLE AMELIE won the Jury Prize at the Animation is Film Festival. A stunning and life affirming gift of a film. Seek it out when it opens near you.

the MCU-ification of the Stephen King universe fuckin sucks, man. this sounds like absolute dogshit.
"It: Welcome to Derry" is overflowing with major shortcomings, but none are quite as great as its central plot's sheer, unbridled asininity.
HBO’s New ‘It’ Series Completely Ruins Stephen King’s Epic
Even that murderous clown didn’t deserve this.

They truly don't make them like they used to.
One of the very best movies of 2024. Don't miss an opportunity to own this one.
One of last year's greatest films Matthew Rankin's UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE is getting a physical media release next month thanks to the awesome folks at Oscilloscope! Pre-order it here amzn.to/474b8Vl
Only picked up two from the Criterion Collection sale, given that November has some fantastic titles coming:
The sale is now live.
🚨Criterion Collection Flash Sale likely today.
hmmmm. A Val Kilmer movie I haven't seen coming to 4K UHD in January?
The sale was delayed one day and will take place today at noon EST. #criterion
🚨Criterion Collection Flash Sale likely today.
Aftermath mostly.

Don’t go to Polygon as much anymore after the layoffs.

I’m more likely to follow writers I enjoy wherever they are.
They sent a $10 off coupon late last week for Criterion Channel subscribers. That usually means there’s a sale coming. Also October is usually a time they do it and there were three new releases today.

But they might’ve delayed it due to the AWS outage yesterday.
Not sure if the AWS outage delayed the sale or not.
🚨Criterion Collection Flash Sale likely today.

Thanks. I don’t think that show ever recovered from the highs of Season 1

I want the tea on this. Which one is it this season?
The scary thing about this is when our machines at home use AWS and we can’t make our coffee there either.

It was an honor to be interviewed by the brilliant @simonparkin.bsky.social on one of my favorite podcasts.

(and just ignore my opinion on Goldeneye, my equivalent of a a negative Steam review that opens with “8,000 hours played”)
Can you guess what game @Plante.bsky.social is talking about? Let us know in the comments.

In the latest episode, @SimonParkin.bsky.social is joined by the veteran journalist and co-founder of Polygon who recently launched the Post Games podcast.
