[Thread of threads]

I'd forgotten I'd made threads as soon as I got here. It wasn't very practical, but I couldn't help myself. 😅

Until I have a system for grouping them on my profile, like on the other network, I'll gather them here. 🖖

Side note: play Dust Fleet, it's got a bunch of great voice actors in it! store.steampowered.com/app/406160/D...

Okay, the tutorial is voiced by me, and I'm not one of the great voice actors, but once you get past that, it's all gold.

Surviving Mars: Relaunched is now available on PS5, Xbox Series & PC.

"The sci-fi city builder is back - remastered, expanded and more stunning."

To be honest, I don't think there's any added value for people who played the 2018 game. But those who have never colonized Mars should give it a try!

[Thread] All the times Arnold Schwarzenegger almost reprised his role as Major Alan “Dutch” Schaefer (Predator, 1987) in another Predator movie, but oops, he didn't.

Guillermo del Toro on Avatar:

Oscar Isaac: “Yeah. I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great… if that happens, then yeah, I’d be open to having a conversation about a galaxy far away.” ✊

I can't watch it yet because I don't have Disney+ at the moment, but indeed, I've heard a lot of good things about the new 83-minute, two-part documentary on the making of Avatar: The Way of Water.

Disney+ already had some fantastic documentaries about Star Wars, Pixar, and ILM.

This replica of the Neb takes on a new emotional dimension for me.

I learned that they couldn't source the VFX file, so the Neb has been digitally sculpted from scratch, using his own research, by the immensely talented artist Fabio Passaro (Battlestar Galactica👇) before his death in 2022.

"Prison life is “very hard,” “exhausting,” “a nightmare,” said Nicolas Sarkozy."

After three weeks in prison, my former conservative president is starting to sound like a progressive. 😂

(Seriously: we found out that he doesn't even know how to cook an egg, and I'm offering to teach him for free 👋)
