JD Vance has done the impossible, he has somehow become more unlikable than Ted Cruz. This is no small feat. Cruz has been the gold standard for cringe-worthy GOP losing personality for over a decade, and yet JD Vance has truly managed to take the crown.

And every day that DIGGER continues to exist, it is making more of its money back for the studio, whereas Zaslav is just a guy taking his big big big big bonus and walking out the door. Maybe the trades could freak out about THAT a little bit more, it seems like the bigger deal.

DIGGER is set to potentially lose Warner Bros. 1/4th of what they just paid out to David Zaslav but the thing about DIGGER is it's a good movie ppl will be watching for decades to come whereas Zaslav is just this dopey dickhead who ruined a movie studio & now gets to keep living like a filth pig

I think I'm just on the hook for it because as far as all parties are concerned, abandoning it in my building's foyer means they delivered it and that is the end of it. The whole thing has left me with a sour feeling that I can't shake.

I think I did a bad job of emphasizing that these one-of-a-kind pieces of Narrative Art were available for sale at the Walter Murch Table, so these were among last night's unsold items. Today, I will throw them into the East River.

I forgot that I did a payment plan for this book, so I am still paying off the book that was stolen from my foyer in NYC while I was doing shows about the museum in L.A. I'm really so exhausted by everything and this is just one small annoying thing to toss on the pile.

Also, look at these super fun pieces of Narrative Art that will be for sale tonight at the Walter Murch Table at Littlefield! One-of-a-kind, hand-drawn! No A.I. slop!

Part of me does slightly lament the loss of the videos I was gonna make at some point late last night in the event that I couldn't make the show tonight. They would've been done in the style of this video I made with Rob Huebel, which (I think) is very fun: youtu.be/6fpYNSXS_ZM?...

I brought all my hair spray and George costume upstate just in case I had to film remote pre-taped segments of George busy working at the museum (using digital magic), and I made alternate crawls, etc for the show in case it was gonna just be hosted by Watto. Here is one of the ALT CRAWLS:

On a less morbid note, there was a secret slight chance I was not going to even make it to tonight's show bc I'm filming a small role in Mike Birbiglia's new movie, which is filming hours from NYC and they couldn't promise me the schedule wouldn't change! But I'm gonna make it! I'll be there!

Connor Ratliff @connorratliff.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Yes, the "mortality" pitch is a desperate one, but I'm not too proud to use it! If you're a Georgie Porgie who is on the fence about attending tonight's show at Littlefield, thinking "I'll catch the next one..." You can't always count on a "next one"!

That's right, we are in the "BONUS round" era of GLTS -- shows that might not have ever happened had things taken just a teeny-tiny turn for the worse when I was lying on the floor of the Great American Music Hall, unable to move, dressed up like George Lucas. www.eventbrite.com/e/the-george...

One last pitch for The George Lucas Talk Show tonight at Littlefield! I'm not saying it's the LAST George Lucas Talk Show we'll ever do -- we have at least 2 more on the books for 2026, with plans for January 2027 -- but FUN FACT did you know I almost *DIED* after our January show? Imagine it!

If you ever get the itch to draw more NEXThead fanart, I feel like Walton Goggins' character, Charlie, might be the best contender to draw attention in this current age

You like Narrative Art? Stuck on the east coast when you wish like hell that you could be visiting the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art? Come to Littlefield in Brooklyn this Thursday night to experience The George Lucas Talk Show in all its glory, bringing museum energy all the way from Los Angeles!

It's A Wonderful Life celebrating its 80th anniversary this year which means that when I was a toddler it was a 30-year old movie. My brain just can't fully process this.

I have great news from UPS! The truck robbers have your package!

Connor Ratliff @connorratliff.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
UPS did an investigation and "closed" it by sending me an email that said "Good news! We have determined that your package was delivered!" Of course, this is NOT good news, as I do not have the package, and they would seemingly KNOW that since that was the whole reason for their investigation.

Need to figure out a way to prevent this from happening, tho! It always feels like I am overpromoting and yet, there are always ppl who ask when I'm coming to a place within a week of me doing a show there! I have no idea what the answer is, bc we are all overwhelmed with information, constantly!

WHATS IN THE BOX?? It's a bonus episode of Scott Hasn't Seen for the NextHeads, and the most expensive episode in the show's history! Scott, Sprague, and honorary co-host @connorratliff.bsky.social open a mystery box that will change everything they thought they knew about The Next Karate Kid!

One big difference between me and the real George Lucas is that while I was out in L.A. visiting the museum and doing shows, my copy of the big Taschen Lucas Museum book was delivered by UPS and stolen from the lobby of my apartment building and that is the end of the story of me owning that book.

There is something really exciting about the way these characters can be reinvented, again and again. And ppl can pick and choose their favorites. And come up with something new!

Connor Ratliff @connorratliff.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Honestly, one of the strengths of the Looney Tunes stable is how utterly flexible the characterizations are. There have been SO many different interpretations of these characters over the decades, to the point where nobody can definitively say which Daffy Duck, for instance, is the "real" one.

There are 2 acting gigs I've completed work on and 1 I'm about to start, none of which I can mention to help promote my show this Thursday. At this point, my legit acting career exists primarily to keep my health insurance and as fodder for my Acting Class show.
