Perpetually tired gamer and movie buff. I created It Was A Sh*t Show and once saw Danny Boyle at the airport.

DRUNK HISTORY CAME BACK?!! WTF I had no idea! Not only is the show unique, informative, and funny, but Derek Waters is one of the most underrated hosts ever. This might be the best thing that’s happened in this truly awful year.

I don’t give a shit about GTA IV. It’ll, once again, be a Rockstar game heralded as the greatest game ever made but, yet again, be a jack of all trades, master of none. It’ll make billions of dollars and most players will maybe complete 30% of the story before bouncing off. Is… is GTA for casuals?

5 Simpsons lines I’ve said/uttered the most: 5. This is the largest automobile I could afford. 4. Wow, infotainment. 3. What’s wrong with me? - I think you’re crazy. 2. It’s just a little airborne, it’s still good, it’s still good. 1. I see lots of things… - Did you see that? - Yes, I did.

Widow’s Bay started out so great. Funny and mysterious with great performances. Then those last three episodes really petered out. With the truly terrible slasher episode seemingly shoved in via reshoots as the following episodes never once mention it.

Outside a few stand out images, Christopher Nolan’s partnership with cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema has been rather bland (from staging to clarity). The scenes and moments are great but individual shots are, at best, adequate. But I don’t think we’re ready to have that conversation just yet.

Ian Michael @tunkthetank.bsky.social · 28/07/2026
In Nolan’s Odyssey, there is a death of a character (who had their own dedicated montage) that absolutely ruined me. But because the movie doesn’t allow moments to breathe, the death is immediately tossed off in literal seconds for an unrelated conversation. It’s an unforgivable mistake by Nolan.

Excel works amazingly at like 95% of what you need it for. But that other 5%, can be so infuriatingly wrong and nonsensical, you’ll want to smash it with a hammer and drop kick it into the ocean.

This premise itself doesn’t make any sense. Is it that the timing feels off (Duck Soup & Mad Mad World are still insane)? Or the outdated ideas (cause Some Like It Hot is inherently questionable now)? You can give countless examples His Girl Friday, The Jerk Back to the Future, Clue… all hold up.

Iwata also famously took a massive pay cut to offset Nintendo’s shitty year just so they didn’t have to lay anyone off. Lead by example.

What’s so infuriating about shit like this is that nature is incredible. The planet is incredible. We’ve seen countless images in our lifetime as proof of that. And yet people are using AI to FAKE how incredible it is. Why?!

Finally watched The Rutles movie with @ericidle.bsky.social and I’m now mad that I hadn’t seen it sooner. The running camera joke and the New York skyline gag alone are some of the funniest bits I’ve seen in years. And the 20 (!) songs are all parodies but are also extremely earnest bangers.

I was really worried about the Scrubs revival, since the original 8 seasons (not 9) are incredible & heartfelt. But they did it. Watching the first 2 episodes reminded me of how I felt watching the first season of Ted Lasso. Absolute positivity & joy during an awful time with an awful president.

3. Wind Waker HD Pure joy in every corner. 2. Breath of the Wild Tears can objectively be called the better game, but being the same map, it doesn’t have that same sense of discovery. 1. Majora’s Mask My personal favorite game of all time. A journey you actively see the difference you’re making.

Blue Prince is a 9/10 puzzle game. Creative, engrossing, full of OMG moments. Then you reach Room 46. Afterwards, the cracks begin to show with egregiously slow progression, glitchy UI, meandering side quests, & completely unsatisfying endings with no true answers to the questions it started with.

What is your most mundane celebrity encounter? 15 years ago, I saw Danny Boyle at the airport. I walked by several times but couldn’t get the courage to talk to him. Always regretted it, because honestly how often do people recognize him? I’m sure he wouldn’t have minded.

Every year there is movie that’s so incredibly over hyped, a cinematic milestone for generations to come I’m told, and I feel like I’m taking crazy pills because of how middle of the road it actually was. Any way, congrats to Sinners, I guess.

Whenever I spent time on normie platforms (your threads, your Facebook), I become more and more convinced that a large part of our problem as a nation is the literacy crisis. People have trouble with basic reasoning. They can't follow very simple logic or compound sentences. It's disturbing.
