David @shugz.bsky.social · 06/10/2026We needed to lose the Argentina game for two reasons: 1) it taught Tuchel that caution only brings regret and 2) it meant that in the France game England were able to cut loose and show how good they can be as an attacking force. If we'd beaten Arg then we'd have lost to Spain anyway w/o learning! 130
David @shugz.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Oh and the big spiders in Ocarina of Time. Yes, they're in the very first dungeon. I was 7! 000
David @shugz.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I also had recurring nightmares in my childhood about being stalked by dinosaurs through tall grass that I only discovered many years later was a scene from THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK, which I must have sneaked a glimpse of when my siblings were watching it on TV. 100
David @shugz.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I think it was probably my first, abortive attempt at reading The Hobbit, but on TV I was deeply scarred by series 2 of The Demon Headmaster, and the first episode of the BBC adaptation of Elidor. I don't know if I ever saw the rest of it. 100

David @shugz.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Art is not a contest, and ranking shows is purely a matter of taste anyway [reads the list] Ted Lasso ten places above Shōgun and nearly twenty about Station Eleven should result in jail time for every contributor 120
David @shugz.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Saw BAD APPLES tonight. Spent the whole film squirming in my seat while also laughing my head off. It's SCHOOL OF ROCK's evil twin, for a very specific scene that would be a plot spoiler to discuss. Saoirse Ronan is incredible, the script is fantastic and, my god, those kids!!!! 010
David @shugz.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Pynchon's Survivalist Dogmance was a hippie in the 1960s who taught classes on how to shield your mind from alien telepathy. These days he lives in a junkyard and sells a kind of weed that turns your teeth purple. 021
David @shugz.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Not a specifically autumnal film (it takes place over the course of about a year) but a cosy one. 110
Reposted by DavidThe Spaceshipper 🚀 @thespaceshipper.com · 22/09/2026“Lost,” my favorite show from my twenties, started 22 years ago today. There are so many scenes I love in these six seasons, but the opening scene of Season 2—after spending the summer coming up with the wildest theories about the hatch (including a spaceship, of course 😎)—was wonderful. 1215725

David @shugz.bsky.social · 19/09/2026I think probably Rian Johnson, the Wachowskis, Powell & Pressburger, Koreeda Hirokazu. I don’t want to think about it more because otherwise I’ll be caught in indecision all night. 020
