You make some good points. On the one hand, Verdun. On the other, a really good Clara Bow vehicle.

Seems like they’re less annoyed that the young generation doesn’t read and more that the generation doesn’t read *them.*

Poster for the 1927 movie Wings, a stylised, colour image, with a few clear tones - orange to red for the burning planes and clouds, shades of blue for the sky and the framing shape just behind our stars: Charles β€œBuddy” Rodgers as Jack Powell, his face gazing skyward and in uniform, embracing It Girl herself Clara Bow as Mary Preston, as she looks up at him (wearing a deep green that contrasts dramatically with the rest of the image.)

Totally cool and fine that the Minister for (Un)Housing has had to deny that he’s pals with the developer behind the mass eviction process. lol.

Napoleon low key the funniest guy in European history because he was like β€œwhat if I promoted officers based on how good they were at army and recruited troops who actually liked my countryβ€œ and it was basically the same as unleashing Godzilla.

Never been easier to watch Mercy Point - the show that asks β€˜what if ER meets Star Trek’ - too. All seven episodes are on YouTube. m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfGI...

Some speculate it might be an animated thing which sure fair.

I like UPN core for the record. That’s my mind palace. Part of the brain that goes β€˜maybe now is the time to watch Mercy Point or Seven Days’

It is! Solid, I mean. Been doing a full series watch so it’s on the mind.

She was! And she was Kyle MacLachlan’s ex on Agents of Shield (a lot went on there in retrospect.)

Max Eilerson was kind of my feeling of the show’s standout. He’s a creep but he’s Our Creep.

Oh man if you dig Technomages then you are gonna have a good time. Enjoyment of Crusade is basically on a scale of how cool you think Galen is because JMS really likes the guy so enjoy

And really what more can you ask for than a revival that is at least occasionally good.

Great cast too. That show had Dichen Lachman well before a lot of other shows had Dichen Lachman
