Working in an industry deeply anxious about the rise of AI, it’s hard not to notice the irony of the countless LinkedIn posts that are almost certainly written by ChatGPT.

Foolishly decided that the best way to bring in the new year was to watch the documentary β€˜The Remarkable Life Of Ibelin’ on Netflix… And I still haven’t stopped crying.

This was an excellent interview Tom. So many parallels to the world of entertainment media in general. The fight for β€˜attention’ is a battle being fought across the entertainment industry. Shawn made excellent observations. Thank you both!

Lovely reminder of what a great bit of neologism 'Enshittification' is.

I think this is the most beautiful advert I've ever seen.

Hoyte van Hoytema smashes it out of the park with his cinematography and the subtle direction from Marcus Ibanez is the icing on the cake.... A cake that is now covered by my tiny tears.

I've been saying this for years. Sherlock Holmes. Sherlock played by human (Hugh Grant). Kermit as Watson. Cast of Muppets as all other characters. They could have the same broad appeal as Dickens, similar timeless victorian England as backdrop. Comfort of well known central character (Sherlock).

British television is dying β€” and Gogglebox won’t save it With no one daring to take a chance on new formats and 68 per cent of freelancers out of work, the once world-leading UK TV industry is in terminal decline

Great article.

It HAS to be The Wild Robot. It’s my film of the year so far.

Skate Boardin' on my Atari 2600 Xmas 1987. Slapped on 'Power Of Love' by Huey Lewis and the news and pretended I was Marty McFly. The stuff dreams are made of.

Whenever I see a news headline that there may be snow coming, I get all excited like a giddy school boy. Then I remember I'm a 47 year old man and should probably grow up.

Finally got around to watching Jason Reitman's 'Saturday Night' this weekend and it was excellent. Having been lucky enough (lucky with a side dose of trauma) to have made a few similar shows that could only dream of the legacy SNL has, I thought it captured this slice of comedy history perfectly!

The Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight is the most uncomfortable thing I’ve watched on TV since the Prince Andrew β€œI don’t sweat” interview.

In 2001, on a cold and rainy Saturday in Toronto, I stumbled into a book store in Bloor West Village and pulled a random book off the shelf to read in a corner. The book was β€˜The Marriage Of Sticks’ by Jonathan Carroll and I have collected his work ever since. #Bookshelf

Keeping up the good vibes approach to BlueSky. Can recommend this book I picked up last weekend. β€˜Coda Vol One’ by @sispurrier.bsky.social & @matiasbergara.bsky.social devoured it back to front and back again.

A plague - unless your my son opening his stocking at Christmas, in which case Temu’s adverts may have worked.
