So here it is. Feast your eyes, but do not let them deceive you... And now, enter the Dark Vergence of Wild Speculation and Spoilers...

Noisuf-X - Satisfaction

Mark Chestnutt - It Sure Is Monday☕🥱

Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - (Come Up And See Me) Make Me Smile

There was a very odd rumour on the socials that the guy also had an OnlyFans. It’s been wiped along with the Insta, and X reduced to a single post. There is also a web address that now goes to a parking domain. Now I don’t know why a comic writer would have one of those, because [googles] they don’t… [image search] usually… look… oh. Okay. That was unexpected. Suffice to say that even operating a private social, regardless of content, can be career-limiting, especially working for the Mouse.

Small additional details:

It's certainly odd. I know Marvel/Disney are cutting back on D+ projects, so they might be only doing two seasons and then out, and just not telling the creatives still working on it to make sure they complete to time and deadline. Or DeMayo may have been actively fired-for-cause, but someone might come forward with the tea on that.

That'll be £35, please...

Slightly off topic, but a couple from my tarot deck project...

😻

Leaf - Wonderwoman

Lynyrd Skynyrd x Dre & Dogg - The Next Episode

BTW: I'm not sure this is the right venue for this, but a message from one of their staffers: It's not a great time to be on the market in audio right now - especially after Ek redlined a whole swathe of people at Spotify late last year. But if you happen to need some talent, drop me a DM and I'll pass along the message. x

Kinda sad. They made good podcasts - worked with them a tiny bit, and Ship-It Show! deserves a future for definite. The Roost unit by itself is also profitable and should find a good home. As for the TV shows: well, they're vastly more expensive to make, but don't earn nearly as much per user, largely because they don't fit "live read" ads as well, and were therefore very dependent on subscriber and YouTube monetisation. I'm not sure AT&T or Time-Warner ever really had an idea how to make them profitable after they took over Fullscreen, and once WB/D got hold of 'em... well, just another costline. ...also, big fan of Bauza.

Final trailer is up, and it just wants to liiight... a little flame in your heaaaart... (with a very large flamethrower)

Puddles Pity Party - Brain Damage / Eclipse

Still gutted that Daft Punk won’t reunite. I mean, they could have handed on the helmets to new members for generations and no-one would have known. Y’know, the Dread Pirate Robots.

Odd question: anyone got a good formula description for someone holding a Reaper type scythe? For another hobby project I'm working on (building my own Tarot deck...)

Yet another Bard, albeit with very high scores in the Destruction motivation. Which would make me some kind of Death-Folk or Country/Punk crossover Bard, I suppose...

Thanks. Have caught bits of Slow Horses, kind of gave up on Americans halfway through, and Informant has now been added to queue. Not heard of the Ipcress File remake, will take a look. On the movie front, speaking of spy movies - and making Henry Cavill look weird... ...it's a Guy Ritchie war movie. Sort of. For those of you who aren't history nerds, the title is Churchill's nickname for WW2's Special Operations Executive. SOE's ops weren't quite as colourful as the poster and movie make out, because they'd have stood out like sore thumbs. But they did come from all walks of life, and were trained to blend in, while working as assassins, thieves, spies and military advisors/trainers to Resistance groups. And their story does need to be told. If you're interested in this kind of thing, you can get the SOE's collected Training Manual on Amazon - including self-defence techniques, how to fling an exploding rat, and a field guide to burglary "compiled with the help of professional and patriotic criminal sources."

Decided to hop out to a random movie on Sunday, and that turned out to be Argylle. I think it's worth a watch (possibly on streaming), though spoilery notes ahead... On that note, I'm in the mood for a good spy caper (especially with my "Jayne Blonde" AC/AA Dominator running around Paragon). Anything good I should add to queue?

Interesting choice, is all. He's quite a versatile actor - yes, in cape world, we know him for Quicksilver (and Ralph Boehner...) and he delivered a pantheon of charismatic creeps in AHS:Cult. Haven't seen Mare of Easttown but heard that was good, and Dahmer isn't up my alley - but again, heard good things about his acting. He's got no particular schtick or associations, so you're really not going to know who or what you're dealing with. Re your spoilerbox, my thoughts:

So this project is real, and there's a first image: Confirmed cast: Jared Leto😠, Greta Lee🙂, Evan Peters🤨, Hasan Minhaj😐, Jodie Turner-Smith🤩, Arturo Castro🤓, Cameron Monaghan🤯, with Gillian Anderson🥰. Confirmed director: Joachim Rønning, a Norwegian indie darling who - like the unfortunate Brit director from a pair of threads that have wisely been consigned to history - got sucked in by the promise of big budget big name movie making, only to find out their project was cursed (PotC: Dead Men Tell No Tales, though his second Mouse outing with Maleficient:Mistress Of Evil was pretty solid.) He replaces Aussie adman Garth Davis (Foe). Execs: the producers at least knows what he's about: Jeff Silver, who cut his teeth on The Wonder Years, and then built a very varied CV ranging from Training Day and Assault On Precinct 13, to Santa Clause and three Disney live-action remakes. Confirmed plotline: TRON: Ares follows a highly sophisticated Program, Ares, who is sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission, marking humankind’s first encounter with A.I. beings. Production notes: began filming (finally) in Vancouver in January under codename Velcro, after pandemic delays and then the strikes. Unconfirmed pointless speculation: something about ARES's right hand is screaming weapon. Not to mention the red colour scheme, the armoured-looking suit, and the odd looking warning-triangle data disc/ frisbee / next Apple jack I'll have to get a dongle for if they flip off the EU.
