The map to my sci-fi adventure book The Planet Lost In Time, where an expedition spacecraft crash-lands on a planet teeming with life, finding it populated by prehistoric life, and there are clues of more intelligent life...
This combines two of my dear loves: Jurassic Park meets Firefly.

One of the most meaningful lessons I’ve learned is how important it is to make others feel important. Not on a surface-level—really notice what you appreciate, show them, and SAY it. We often assume our kind, talented friends already know how amazing they are. But often, they don’t hear it enough.
If you see this, quote this post with a movie from the year you were born 🎥

There are two really solid modern ERB adaptations, "John Carter" and "The Legend of Tarzan," which didn't make money and apparently spooked studios out of using old IP.

Damn shame. So many good stories in the old lost word/weird fiction/adventure stacks, but they're not marketable like Star Wars.
Happy Thunder-versary! @thunderquack.bsky.social is 10 years old, so here's a special episode of Perfect Ten to celebrate! On this episode we're joined by Amanda Konkin to talk about our Perfect Ten film, John Carter, starring Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, Willem Dafoe, and Mark Strong.

We're headed back to Barsoom to discuss the 2012 masterpiece, John Carter (of Mars), starring Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins.

I like to think that in another reality, Bayona got to make his princess and dragon but with dinosaurs film but as his own creative expression. This piece is a window into that parallel world.
I know how much hard work and patience children need. Anyone who is able to commit to being a parent round the clock and every day of the year and still keep themselves stable and healthy is Herculean in my view.

That being said… I hate being the one who gets heat when there’s the smallest mishap..

was mostly keeping it together until I read Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch
Let me just add that composers Tilman Sillescu & Pierre Langer delivered on a sheer triumph of a game score.
This fuelled my writing imagination for kingdoms bustling with wonders, and sweeping vistas of ruled by these Prehistoric titans. Check it out:

There are games that don't make a wide impression on release but are absolutely cherished by a few.
Developed by German dev team SEK, ParaWorld is one that I've fallen back in love with it over the past few weeks.
Soon I'll share more game pics in a new tag #paraworldposting

What's your "no one remembers but me" game?

ParaWorld (2006), a cheesy Age of Empires-like where three generic heroes go into the Dinosaurs and Mammoths Dimension to meet generic brand Darwin and Tesla and beat up generic brand Babbage and Lovelace.
