My friend and I went to see *Project Hail Mary* today. A hearty recommendation from me. I haven't been to the movies for ages but this one was definitely worth the admission (especially when it's half price on Cheapie Tuesday).

Project Hail Mary (2026) | Sci-Fi
Project Hail Mary: Directed by Phil Lord, Christopher Miller. With Ryan Gosling, Milana Vayntrub, Ken Leung, Sandra Hüller. An astronaut tries to save Earth while alone in outer space.

Lesson from the movies: The more important it is for two professionals to work together, the more antagonistic they are to each other. At least at first.

back in my day video games and movies had piss filters on for artistic intent, these clankers should learn to respect the groundwork old timers like RE5 and GTA IV laid [huck tugh, that's the sound of me spitting into a bucket]

I realize I may not be the average viewer but shows and movies that show tiny text for text messages (like expecting us to read off a phone someone is holding, that is usually not shown in close up) are frustrating.
This issue has been solved well. Just show a large text graphic with the text. That works well, looks good and is readable. Without the solutions I am not sure I would have thought of it (after the fact is seems obvious), but after it has been solved, use the good idea.

Don't tell me that a film has a twist. That is in itself a spoiler.

Good Morning #Canada
Canadian inventors have vastly improved every day life. Consider the innovations that global citizens are now thankful for: the telephone, basketball, snowmobiles, Imax movies, hockey, canoes, bras, insulin, zippers, paint rollers, athletic support, and poutine. Sorry we're so awesome.
Now an invention by a Dartmouth emergency physician in 2022 has made it easier for emergency rooms to safely remove rings from fingers. Previously doctors and nurses would have relied on tools from hardware stores with all the scary moments a patient could experience. "You might want to look away while I do this...". A serendipitous meeting at a medical tradeshow will likely give the invention an added boost.

Because @…’s Flipboard site won’t scroll for me (?!?), here’s the paragraph with the punch:
❝It’s worth noting that over the decades, Pixar has explored topics such as, but [not*] limited to: becoming a widower, suddenly becoming a single or adoptive parent, environmental collapse, existential dread, motherhood, and job burnout. The first Incredibles has a subplot where Elastigirl thinks Mr. Incredible is having an affair, Toy Story 3 has the toys accept death by furnace, and Elemental is about interracial relationships. The last two movies Docter directed were Soul, which is about a Black man finding joy in his life again, and Inside Out—maybe the most therapy-ass movie (and series) in the studio’s entire 40-year tenure—is about messy preteen emotions that lead to its main character running away from home.❞

Plot & Cast The story is set in 1930s England and follows Eric Noone (played by Ben Radcliffe), a lovable pickpocket who blags his way into a job at the grand Fackham Hall estate. The Romance: Eric begins a forbidden romance with Rose Davenport (Thomasin McKenzie), the rebellious daughter of the house.
