Recently rewatched LoTR and his performance was just perfect, esp in Fellowship.
His 70s Macbeth was outstanding as well.
Unbelievable actor who understands his roles and brings all the right emotions with the dialogues.
Just a phenomenal all round actor, comes so naturally to him.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Have lost humanity to a bunch of thieving pedophilic cockroaches who loot from masses then buy everything up to kill any form of expression.
Used to just be bribing politicians but all about owning & destroying public goods like media, utilities, sports, films.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

There have been plenty of box office players at LFC, even during the banter era.

Great read. Never thought about the movie in this manner.
You might enjoy my little essay on Greatness in Art in the age of AI, AKA, "Sinners is Great, actually, but greatness doesn't exist, also." www.oaklandreviewofbooks.org/sinners-one-...
Talking Greatness to Death
Sinners is WAY too much movie, a level of movie one might even say filmmakers are proscribed from producing. Period drama about race AND vampire slasher? A genre movie with Ideas? In this economy?

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

In 1932, FDR was elected with 57.4% of the vote. He brought us the New Deal.
In 1964, LBJ was elected with 61.1% of the vote. He brough us the Great Society.
In 2025, Trump was elected with 49.8% of the vote. He's attempting to destroy everything FDR & LBJ built.
The rest is commentary.

this and a few other stories about his grace really says it all. Just a phenomenal creative force and a good person at the core. What a tragedy.
When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Amanhecemos com um shadow ban generalizado contra perfis de esquerda no Instagram.
Até o perfil do presidente está inacessível.
Shadow ban é uma punição a quem não se adequa à plataforma, então o recado da Meta é bem claro: a direita é amiga, a esquerda é uma ameaça.

A few millions to ensure a Kenny Dalglish level legend retires here is exactly why we earn the money we do.
He can be the second highest PL goalscorer, can be second on our all-time list and get to the CL top 5 goalscorer list.
