This is the book with "The Green Ribbon" but when I was in elementary school, my teacher played a narrated version of the first story and the guy's creepy voice lives in my brain to this day.

In a dark dark room and other scary stories

This order isn't right but whatever. Everything is bad but I've started horror movie season with Heart Eyes anyway, which was the right call.

I'm sorry, I've only posted about iced coffee and the NYT TV shows today. I need to fix that. Look at this ad I just got on Tumblr dot com

Some sort of batshit crazy ad that says "questioning 9/11's official tale? Discover how coding shapes what we see as truth and why it matters today. There's a picture of the twin towers but they're also people blowing up? And they're made of other people?

Resident Evil and Exit 8 accidental double feature

An Exit 8 letterboxd review. "If I had nickel for every time I watched a video game movie adaptation in September where the main character is a guy who has to decide whether or not he wants to be a father and is grappling with that while also stuck having to deal with horrors he does not understand, I'd have two nickels."

Some highlights. Too many to list in a post.

- Me, Bryant and another woman tag-teaming a guy in front of us on his phone who had the audacity to tell us to shush

- Me yelling at a person on their phone down in front who didn't respond until a guy with a booming voice also yelled

- having to move seats because a guy who was talking was about to start a fight when we told him to shut up

- A guy answering his phone in the middle of the Substance. He did, in fact, get yelled at.

- Somebody on their laptop in the movie??

- Me approaching a woman in front who was on her phone. She told me "oh I was telling her (points to another person also on their phone) to get off their phone"

- Us telling a guy in front of us to get off their phone. He responded, flabbergasted, "you can see it?"

- Don't even get me started on what happens at Alamo these days

Btw the account these graphics are from features such posts as "I'm a conservative because colleges censor free speech" and "Nobody's publishing me because I'm conservative" so you don't really need to give them your attention lol

The text "The publishing industry hates conservatives" on top of a graphic with a woman looking just so sad about it.

How Columbia University made me a conservative on yet another graphic with her face on it.

I somehow knew they were going to cast a not plus-sized person to play Harris (he's maybe a bit chubby in the books? It's vague) in Heated Rivalry S2 and the discourse was going to be a lot. And yup! People are mad! But I've been on the Justice Smith train since Detective Pikachu so 🫡

When they say nobody makes romcoms like they used to, they really mean The American President (1995), an Aaron Sorkin joint where President Michael Douglas starts dating environmental lobbyist Annette Benning and the big scandal is that she went to a flag burning once and he respects women too much

EW doesn't give a shit about things like industry-breaking layoffs, and entertainment trades without dedicated video game verticals aren't going to have the context. This is for an entertainment audience first THAT SAID... dedicating four grafs to layoffs is a hell of a choice.

When Sharma speaks with EW prior to the "reset" announcement, she's direct and matter-of-fact about the issues ahead.

"Technology companies are going through this, entertainment companies are going through this, and certainly gaming is not immune to it,” she says. “When COVID hit, all the demand came forward at the same time that AI happened. The whole industry is in a time of change…. In a couple of weeks, I'll share some numbers with our team and we can share some numbers with you, too, on the state of Xbox and the work ahead for us — and how we're going to make sure that we are a stronger business on the other side."

The whole piece is about upcoming games (Blade still exists) but it's mostly about how Xbox really cares about making video game adaptations and... I guess a Candy Crush album? Just feels like the same stuff pre-Sharma, but without the focus on Game Pass or gaming anywhere.

Sharma's vision is to turn Xbox into not just the biggest gaming company, but the biggest entertainment company. That includes expanding their imprint in Hollywood by piggybacking off the success of A Minecraft Movie and Fallout with numerous other movie and TV adaptations in the works. The main goal, though, remains making Xbox the go-to destination for "play."

"The next generation, their No. 1 form of entertainment is play," Sharma says. "It's not about what we say, it is about what the world does, and they're deciding that gaming is one of the most important forms of entertainment today — and the next generation is saying it is the most important form of entertainment. So we will continue to meet players where they are."
