I just saw DIGGER and... it's an experience. Unlike anything else I've seen. Both Cruise and Iñárritu deserve awards. But it's not for everyone. I suspect (and the box office is backing me up here) that's it's not even for most people. I still recommend it, as I would anything as unusual as this.

What's up with repeating the headline three times? I see it a lot and it never makes sense. Surely there's a way to not do that.

Hey @nytimes.com @nytgames.bsky.social, last I checked "uncus" is neither plural nor a verb. I accept that it may be unlikely to be an answer, but not for the reasons given.

Screenshot of a Wordle results screen, with the Wordle bot saying "UNCUS is a valid guess, but plurals and verbs ending in 's' are unlikely to be solutions."

Apparently I'm out of the loop. What "whole logo situation?" Just the fact that they have a new logo? Did people dislike it? I think it's great. Or something else?

Glad to hear it. It's rare to see my hometown playing itself in a movie, and with such a prominent spot on the movie poster, too.

Putting aside for a moment the message itself, I'm struck by how poor his spelling is. you -> You adds -> ads Its -> It's by -> By That's a 10% failure rate, and that's not counting the sentence fragment. Most of that would've been caught by autocorrect, so he doesn't even have that excuse.

I know I'm in a minority, but I hope he sticks with it. There's plenty of other ways for him to be creative, and I for one am looking forward to reading his novels and watching movies made from his scripts, as well as the inevitable TV series he'll do once he finds himself dying to direct again.

Oh shit! Now he's busting out a half-decent French-Canadian accent too.

Watching the first Christmas movie of the year, All is Bright (aka Almost Friends), and I've gotta say I'm impressed by Paul Rudd's Canadian accent. So far he's rocking proper "tomorrows" and "abouts." I'm on the lookout for a "sorry." Paul Giamatti appears to not have given a fuck. #movies #xmas

On one of these visits we stumbled upon the Prince Charles, and we felt we'd discovered a hidden little gem. A cineast's temple. The first show we caught there was Fargo and to this day I've kept the ticket stub, as a memento of that visit and indeed all those London trips. Good times. (2/2) #cinema

It's times like this I wish I lived more nearby. All through the nineties and early 2000s, my dad and I would go to London for a long weekend once or twice a year. We'd shop for fun things, go to great pubs, and watch some good movies. (1/2)

It's a crime that @doublefine.com's Keeper didn't get a nod, hopefully it'll be honoured in some other categories. Out of those, I'd prefer Clair Obscur to get the win.

Honourable mention: Wes Craven's New Nightmare Love that movie.

I also like how it avoids the tropes of the genre, while still staying true to it and not feeling like a whole new take and reinvention. It makes the whole film feel new and exciting, yet familiar and comfortable. A nice mix. Definitely check it out if you're a fan of the first one, or the genre.

Follow-up: The pantheon of sequels out-shining their predecessors is fairly small, but Black Phone 2 has earned a place. It's more ambitious in pretty much every way. Most obviously in its visuals, but also with its story structure. (1/2)

Ken P. Miller @kenpmiller.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

That's great. It's my favourite movie of all time. I love spotting its cultural footprints like this.

Sat down to watch Black Phone 2 and had to pause it a few minutes in to make this post. Those opening credits are rad. Giving me "Seven" vibes. Do you know if that was intentional @crobertcargill.bsky.social?

As a daily Wordle and Quordle player, I kinda love how Crystal Cruises went about announcing the name of their new ship.

It's my understanding that the bottle cap is attached to the bottle not so much to prevent someone from losing the cap, but for environmental reasons. If it's attached to the bottle, the likelihood of the cap ending up in the trash or recycling instead of in nature is much higher.

Man, you weren't kidding. Just finished watching, and that stretch of 14 through 17 was something else. Well worth it, even though I already knew would end up on top in the end. Thanks again.

Thanks for the heads-up. I wasn't able to watch it live, and since I know the ultimate result I wasn't sure I'd get around to catching the post coverage. But I'll for sure make time for it now.

It really is a masterpiece. And (at least for me) it came out of nowhere. I don't know if they've been keeping their cards close to their chest or if I've been living under a rock, but I wasn't expecting to a new GotY contender until the Outer Worlds 2. But, here we are.

1. I have not yet finished Keeper, but I can confidently say it's one of my favourites of the year. It's a great achievement by @doublefine.com 2. The animation below deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. It captures the whimsy of the game so well. #keeper #videogames #goty? #xbox

I read a lot of comics growing up. Lots of different genres and stories. For interconnected* superhero stories I tended to gravitate towards Marvel over DC, but when I saw this cover on the rack I knew I had to have it. * As opposed to titles like The Phantom, The Spirit, The Rocketeer...

DC Cover of the Day If you see this, post a DC Cover you love. Day 93

A Superman comic book cover. It features some rubble with a pole sticking out of it. Attached to the pole is Superman's cape, torn and tattered. At the bottom of the cover it says "The Death of Superman!"

I guess to me those things were more old-timey than comic booky, but I see what you mean.

This was the first comic book movie I ever saw that didn't feel like a comic book movie, even though it was visually quite faithful to its origin.

Basically, after the last few days of heavy iPhone use I'm now much less apprehensive about this switch than I was a week ago. I'm still getting used to some of the iOS quirks, but I'm sure soon enough things like not having a dedicated comma key on the keyboard will feel perfectly normal. End 🧵

I've also discovered that a couple of my most-used apps have features in their iOS versions that are nowhere to be found in their Android counterpart. Which admittedly does make me side-eye those devs a little... 🧵(3/4)
