Er is ook een filmpje van hem is als hij de muziek van BBC News verwerkt tot een post-apocalyptische rave. Het irritante is echter dat het schijnbaar niet meer op YouTube staat. Maar gelukkig hebben we deze klassieker nog: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSgY...

I was rather fortunate to have found this at a reasonable price/Price back in the day, so I'm well aware of the craftmanship that went into making it. It is indeed as fascinating as gruesome.

You want to awaken Cthulhu from his deep slumber? Because this is how awaken Cthulhu from his deep slumber. I think. www.theregister.com/databases/20... Either way, I wonder if @johnromero.bsky.social ever suspected just on/in how many things Doom would run.

Clever database, but can it run Doom?

"The fly" is probably Cronenberg's least weird movie, which does say a lot about his body of work.

Je kunt ook stoppen met dingen organiseren, maar dan gaat de directie waarschijnlijk vragen waarom/zeuren dat je niets meer organiseert. Ik vraag me alleen af of die directie incompetent is, of dat ze de leesvaardigheden van een dode schaamluis hebben. Waarschijnlijk beide. Hoe dan ook: 🫂

Couldn't sleep, therefore movie. "Ghost dog: The way of the samurai" is really, really good. It's been some time since I last watched it so I had forgotten most of it, so it was nice to get reacquainted. Watch it, if only for the interactions between Ghost Dog and the ice cream vendor. IYKYK.

Speaking of shocking things - System Shock 2 25th anniversary remaster is currently free on the Epic store. No idea if it's any good (the game, we all know the Epic store is that place you only go to for free stuff), but there ya go, and here ya are.

To all my friends, enemies, and people I don't even remember - the latest major update to Windows 11 just came out. So if you wonder why the borkage is extra borked*, well, now you know. * I'm assuming borkage, because, well, [broadly gestures at everything at Microsoft has done lately].

Not every movie that has Vincent Price in its cast is worth watching. But when they're not, it's never due to Vincent Price.

Watched "From a whisper to a scream", a 1980s horror anthology movie. Vincent Price was the narrator, and that's the only good thing. Out of 4 segments only 1 was decent, 1 was okay at best, and the other 2 gory/nasty for the sake of being gory and nasty. Verdict: watch something else instead.

Predator: Badlands, a fresh take on the franchise. I wouldn't say it's as good as the original movie, or the sequel, but it's better than Predator, and lightyears ahead of The Predator. This movie and Prey show there's still life in the character. 2/2

Couldn't sleep, so movie time it was. Mortal kombat II was okay, lifted above mediocrity by Karl Urban. Sadly the rest was a bit forgettable imho. Coyote vs ACME, glad this ended up being released in the end, a fun movie and even a smidge heartwarming. 1/2

I must commend the makers on having crafted a creature feature that is just plain mediocre. Which given how most creature features are patently stupid and often entertainingly bad is quite the achievement.

It's amazing how time and distance works. France to the Netherlands? 11 hours. The Netherlands to France? Not even half an hour.

Tracking information from Amazon that can't be right. And the involvement of Dragonfly does not bode well.

And why not bring back cliffhangers? Episodes ending on the doctor or a companion turning a corner and running in the big bad, that sort of thing? And not just cliffhangers, but also slowly releasing the episodes on iPlayer etc. so people will have to wait until next week to see what happens.

I've seen somebody asking nearly €700 for a used Asus V6600 Deluxe (Geforce 256), without the 3D glasses etc. Adjusting for inflation that's actually more expensive than it was new. I'd say crazy is an understatement.

So that's two LEGO sets on hold because of missing pieces. One set should have 14 pieces of 6528998, but so far one is missing. And I mean so far. Why? Because the other set should have 2 pieces of 6514455, and there are exactly zero.
