We're having spreadeagled chicken for dinner. Absolutely brazen.
Afternoon in the monsoon (Storm Austen) in London Have taken shelter in the theatre and in Raffles for a Singapore Sling 🍹
Oh wow Resident Evil (as well as Obsession and Backrooms of course) has made more than Mandalorian & Grogu now Horror continues to collect those wins!
I could barely make it through one single episode of The Newsroom but I stand by Studio 60! I was INVESTED in the central foursome and their romantic entanglements. I genuinely loved it at the time and have been constantly shamed for it since. I'm sure it hasn't aged well, like all Sorkin.
Alan Sepinwall@sepinwall.bsky.social · last wk.Aaron Sorkin's infamous Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip debuted 20 years ago this fall. I talked with a group of contemporary comedy writers about why the show didn't work, but also why they're still obsessed with it:

Because I had seen both Eva Marie Saint and Tippi Hedren do a lot of public events (TCM etc), I knew they were both still with us (until yesterday of course). To my shame, I didn't realize that Kim Novak is still alive! I'm glad that both Tippi and Kim are still with us.
Sometimes you see a puppy that doesn't look like a puppy, it looks like an exact miniature version of the grown dog it will one day become. It's a large dog the size of a small dog.
Hey horror friends, I hope you’ll give me a few minutes for a non-horror-related good cause. In my other life I’m a playwright, and I founded Desert Playwrights’ Retreat, a fully-funded all-expenses-paid writing retreat for LGBTQ playwrights. We fly writers in from all over the country… 1/
There's always debate about book vs films of course. But I'm reading A Room with a View, and I have to say that the description of one of the most iconic, cinematic kisses of all time is very disappointing: "He stepped quickly forward and kissed her" is what Forster writes.
Walked 6k along the River Mersey in the glorious October sunshine to a nice independent cinema to see Sense & Sensibility and then had fish & chips. Pretty good afternoon imo!
