Meanwhile “Last of Us” “Resident Evil” and “Fallout” are over here getting turned into movies and tv shows after their huge success.
- Comment on How New 'Star Trek' Shows Get Made, According to Alex Kurtzman 3 days ago:
Wondering how Discovery would have turned out if Bryan Fuller had stuck around.
- Comment on Which were the worst movies of 2024? 5 days ago:
Can’t believe the evangelical churches didn’t give out free tickets to this one.
- Comment on Which were the worst movies of 2024? 5 days ago:
That doesn’t make sense anymore. Streaming is the post-theater “second life” for movies now.
- Comment on Stop the power abuse happening in the politics community. 6 days ago:
That doesn’t look like mod abuse. You posted something that wasn’t about politicians or voting in Politics. Mod explained this and told you it should probably be posted in News instead.
- Comment on Texas Sues New York Doctor for Mailing Abortion Pills | The lawsuit, filed on Thursday, appeared to be among the first attempts to stop doctors from mailing the medication to states that ban abortions 1 week ago:
Also “constitutional experts”. Nevermind that pesky interstate commerce clause.
- Comment on 'Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu' Adds Jeremy Allen White 1 week ago:
That would make sense. Filming is done but the cartoon characters don’t have their (unnecessarily celebrity) voices added in yet.
- Comment on 'Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu' Adds Jeremy Allen White 1 week ago:
How do you add someone to the cast if the filming has wrapped?
- Comment on 'Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu' Adds Jeremy Allen White 1 week ago:
This movie hasn’t finished shooting? Wasn’t it announced last year?
- Comment on Star Trek: Section 31 (2025, dir Olatunde Osunsanmi) 1 week ago:
I have no problem with the idea of Section 31. I think it was executed well on DS9. I don’t think this show is going to be very good though, from the previews I’ve seen so far.
- Comment on Disney's Snow White | Official Trailer 2 weeks ago:
So is this another musical where they hide that fact from the trailer?
- Comment on Junk food ad ban legislation progresses to curb childhood obesity 2 weeks ago:
Tax the junk. This deters people from buying it and helps to offset healthcare costs.
- Comment on KFC drops pledge to stop using ‘Frankenchickens’ in the UK 3 weeks ago:
It didn’t always. It’s sad what it has become. There a reason “fast casual” chains are doing better than fast food.
- Comment on Jon Watts Explains Demise Of George Clooney & Brad Pitt ‘Wolfs’ Sequel After Streaming Pivot: “Apple Didn’t Cancel…I Did, Because I No Longer Trusted Them As A Creative Partner” 3 weeks ago:
He’s just pissy they didn’t release his movie in theaters. He’s welcome to look for another studio, but he will be lucky to find one that doesn’t go straight to streaming or even just bury his finished work for a tax write off these days.

Sure, Jan.
- Comment on Young Frankenstein is not available for streaming 4 weeks ago:
Looks like a 20th Century Fox production. Which Disney owns now, right? Son why isn’t it streaming on Disney? Kind of pathetic.
- Comment on Where to start? 5 weeks ago:
I recommend starting with the original series or Star Trek the next generation. Picard and Discovery are probably the worst places to start.
- Comment on Jonathan Frakes Talks Directing And Tawny Newsome Talks Writing For ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ 5 weeks ago:
This makes me think about the TNG episode where they originally tried to backdoor pilot a Starfleet Academy series — it was the one where Wesley and his cohorts break the rules flying shuttles during some exhibition and someone gets hurt (and they lie about it). I have to wonder how that series would have turned out if it had been picked up.

Download NetNewsWire. If you need it to sync with a windows machine and/or an android device, store your feeds in Feedly or a similar service. Learn to set your RSS reader to default to “reader mode” so you see the whole story and not just the first paragraph.
- Comment on Blocking trash newspapers in Apple News+ just disabled the link but doesn't free up screen space. 5 weeks ago:
Some yes. Some no. And if I’m paying for news, there’s better not be any ads at all.
- Comment on Blocking trash newspapers in Apple News+ just disabled the link but doesn't free up screen space. 5 weeks ago:
They exist to push ads. Even the premium version of Apple News has ads.

Tip: Your local public library offers the same electronic versions of magazines through an app called Hoopla. For free.

Apple News is one of the most poorly managed of all the Apple products. Whomever is in charge of it should be fired.

Why are you reading that trash, “Newsmax”?
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 month ago:
I’d imagine this happens a lot more often than the OP’s scenario. Some complete garbage becomes “critical darling” for whatever reasons.
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 month ago:
WHAS has an amazing cast. Hats off to whomever managed to get them all together.
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 month ago:
LGX would make a good streaming series if the budget was generous.
- Comment on Confirmed: Paul Thomas Anderson helped rewrite ‘Napoleon' 1 month ago:
Between this, Joker II bombing, and him pulling out of another picture at the last minute recently — I think Phoenix’s career might be on ice for a while.

Check your cell service provider to see if they offer any spam blocking services. T-mobile has an app you can install that will block some of these calls for free.
- Comment on "007 - ALL OPENINGS from the Daniel Craig Era" - If you only consider the Daniel Craig era, how do you rank the Bond themes? 1 month ago:
Was just going to mention that the rejected themes are often better than the ones used. There’s also an alternate of Quantum of Solace that’s pretty good.
