Any mention of Ulysses 31 on the timeline instantly allows me to share this again. One of my favourite things on Youtube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMpf...

Sorry to hear that Sam Neill has passed away. My favourite performance of his (and indeed my favourite film of all time) is Wim Wender's mammoth UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD. If you have five hours(!) to spare, check it out.

They're cowards for not doing this.
You ever notice how in the Superman the Movie poster, he's got one fist out, and on Superman II he's got two fists out? Well BUCKLE UP, I gave him three and four fists for Superman III and Superman IV, respectively. Hilarious!

In the Wachowskis’ earnest work, Speed Racer valorizes a supportive family just as much as it celebrates acts of love and a true love of art.

I'm limited in ability to post today, so I'll repost last year's BOTD tribute to late film composer Michael Kamen (1948-2003) He departed too soon, but left us with memorable scores and a foundation that has been keeping music education alive in schools for 30 years at mhopus.org #filmsky #moviesky
A black and white photo of composer Michael Kamen, wearing a black tux jacket and white shirt.
He's smiling broadly and throwing his arms wide as he conducts an orchestra.

#KlausDoldinger was considered Germany's "King of Jazz." As the composer of the "Tatort" theme tune and the film score of "Das Boot" or "Die unendliche Geschichte," he immortalized himself among an audience of millions. He has now died at the age of 89. amp.dw.com/de/tatort-ti...

"Tatort"-Titelmelodie-Komponist Klaus Doldinger ist tot – DW – 18.10.2025
Er schuf das Intro für die erfolgreichste Krimireihe der Republik - und schrieb sich unauslöschlich in die deutsche wie auch internationale Jazzgeschichte ein.

A birthday shoutout to composer Marco Beltrami. Known for his scores for SCREAM and other horror films, he has a very wide range, and has worked with Guillermo del Toro, James Mangold, Kathryn Bigelow and others. Emmy winner and Academy Award nominee Beltrami is 59 today. #filmsky #moviesky #BOTD

From this day in 2024.
The Jolly Fisherman tourism poster showing a jovial chubby guy skipping down a beach in his wellies with nary a care in the world. In this instance, everything has a reddish tinge, there's no beach or sea, just an expanse of red land under an equally red sky. The jolly fisherman is now Cohaagen from "Total Recall" (1990) whose head has swollen to alarming proportions as his eyes pop out of their sockets. The wording on the poster reads: "MARS IS SO BRACING".

The Unbound fuck-up is specifically awful, but generic. The creators of “content” being the last people to get paid, while the people who own the pipe do fine. It’s the new normal. It’s Spotify’s CEO taking home millions. It’s AI stealing our work. It’s that. Again. Which is exhausting.
