god i forgot robert eggers is making a "werwulf" movie 🐺🧍‍♂️🩸⛪ Lfg!!

I was already heavily in the tank for Eggers, but now I am 1000% an Eggers Guy:

Tweet from EggersFilms: According to Robert Eggers’ editor Louise Ford, Aleksei German’s Hard to Be a God (2013) was a big visual and tonal influence on Eggers’ next film, ‘Werwulf’.

Hundreds and hundreds of signs and thousands of people here in #StamfordCT, but I don’t know if anyone’s going to top this! #nokings

Protest sign: “You sucked in Home Alone 2”

also sorry I am making light of all the awful shit going on and searching for points of shared reference that feel marginally less hopeless. in reality we are dealing with fa$h using shitty AI. which would probably been a horror premise, indeed, back in the 70s

🌲tristan b☔️ @tristanb4.bsky.social · 11h

except worse

but if I know anything, it means we're getting a lot of good horror films- which we certainly are and have been

🌲tristan b☔️ @tristanb4.bsky.social · 11h

how are we enjoying these 1970s stagflation "america is in decline and we are destroying the earth" vibes because they're back in a big way baby!!

🌲tristan b☔️ @tristanb4.bsky.social · 1d

reading that they are targetting a 120 fps mode on consoles, which I think bodes well, idk. I'll be there, because I love the 3D Ninja Gaiden games a lot. Would like to get an original Xbox to play Black in its best version 🥲

I don't looove all the comments being like "this explains a lot" lol, like I get it and it's kinda funny, there is a scourge of shitty manosphere gym bros, but I think choosing to be fit and become stronger is cool and good and I refuse to let the right wing freaks have fitness to themselves!

Good little downtempo survival horror game with quite a charming look. Not too long. eminently completeable and imo, enjoyable

Always remember

Xena Warrior Princess PS1 game promo - features a picture of Xena with some screenshots of the game.

Text reads - the way to a man's heart is through his ribcage. Xena lets her chakram fly in the fiercest adventure to hit the PlayStation. Miss out and you'll be gutted.

One of the most amazingly intricate pieces of artwork for a game with a striking artwork style of its own: Elemental Gimmick Gear, aka EGG.

Inspired by French artist Mœbius, something you'll often hear with exotic Japanese science fantasy of the early-mid 90s.

A full page ad with shaded pencil/charcoal artwork of a pilot inside a round clamshell like mech suit with much intricate shading and mechanical detail.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

You can’t script it. The Mariners are willed to victory by Humpy the fish finally winning his first race in the middle of the 15th inning. The crowd chants “Humpy Humpy” as the trident crosses off the ALDS win.
