Don't like to complain, and I know it's just an advert, but oof that Magician's Nephew trailer really disappointed me. It did not evoke the book at all. What a shame

Really pleased to finally say that Chris Remo and I were the lead writers on Star Wars: Galactic Racer. The team at Fuse are the absolute best in their field, and it really shows. It was a great project to work on and is an even better game to play. Sebulba forever

Fight, East Bay Ray, Fight. 👊🏻 May the punk gods be with you. #eastbayray #deadkennedys #punkrockhistory

Yolo?

A world where a twist ending is repurposed as a video title. where a thing's climax has been removed, leaving an advertisment for the gap where it used to be. such things are commonplace in. the twilight zone

RIP Gerrit Graham - who was, among many things, star of one of the lowkey scariest stunts I’ve ever seen in my life

Today in Mojo History—30 years ago today: The Monkey Island SCUMM Bar, probably the best Monkey Island page that has happened to anyone ever, launched.

Pretty sure I have the career and life I do now because when I first got the web 2/3 of my life ago, the first thing I typed into a search engine was “Monkey Island” and I found the SCUMM Bar website and its community.

I 100% have not changed a single goddamn thing about how I write here in the age of "AI." I write how I write. If the "AI" writes anything like how I write, it's because it stole from me. I'm gonna use any punctuation I like, and if it looks "AI"ish to you, you can go fuck yourself.

We're at the "measurably less progressive than Enid Blyton" stage now.

In the 90s, if an adventure game had the LucasArts logo then you knew it would be a great game. For the last twenty years you can say the same for Wadjet Eye.

WADJET EYE IS 20 YEARS OLD!! Which means it’s time to celebrate with another group photo. It’s frankly ridiculous that the universe has allowed me to continue doing this for so long. I’m grateful for it every day. Thank you all.

La última aparición de Rob Reiner ha sido en la nueva serie de Larry David. Se está riendo de Trump desde el otro mundo.

In light of the recent Sony news, I'm extra proud that The Excavation of Hob's Barrow will always exist on physical media, and very beautiful physical media at that. Thanks again to the legends at @lostincult.co.uk for making it happen 🙏💜

I think they should reconfigure the 10 Downing Street lectern into a Segway. After the resignation speech, the PM can make a smooth transition out the gates and all the way home to their constituency. Maybe that's what Johnson meant when he said 'Them's the brakes'. He was asking about the controls.

Hi all! We'd like to nab some fresh testers to play through Nighthawks before the final sprint to launch. If you're interested, please DM me or @richardcobbett.bsky.social.

this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

William Friedkin’s TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A. returns to the PCC next Sunday 17th May for a perfect 8:30pm show from a 35mm print, with another show in July. An electric and emblematic of the 80s classic. 🎟️: buff.ly/N6ORXCO

Jean "Moebius" Giraud (1938-2012) was born 88 years ago today. This legendary French artist is obviously one of my favorites. A true visionary with a vivid imagination, who has inspired many. Here are some of his movie-related works on The Abyss (1989)↘️, TRON (1982)↗️ & Alien (1979)↙️.

Curry Barker teases that his TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE for A24 will focus on Leatherface's family. "I want to lean into the uncomfortability of the family," he tells Total Film. "I want to lean into the rawness of what’s going on there. There’s some really messed up stuff happening at that farm."

RE: Ken Russell’s THE DEVILS (1971) – Yes, it is the original uncut, uncensored version. And yes, Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD discs are almost certainly forthcoming. The questions are, when and from whom: Warner Clockwork, Warner Archive, BFI, Criterion? TBD! Stay tuned... @thedigitalbits.bsky.social

Want to be happy for thirteen minutes? Watch Reece Shearsmith visit the @arrowvideo.bsky.social store. Just the most cheerful guide you could ask for, with a sharp eye for genre performances. (He skips THEATRE OF BLOOD, but he's on the commentary track so perhaps it felt too self-promotional.)

Included with 1993 point 'n' click adventure game Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers is a neat 'Making Of' video showcasing its Hollywood voice cast. Behind the scenes at Sierra On-Line HQ where we get some prime Tim Curry being, well, Tim Curry at his smoothest. #VideoBytes

Wow. I was expecting this to look good, but this is superb. Can't wait to get it under some glass! And looking forward to receiving the soundtrack...

The greatest horror remake ever made? You decide - THE FLY returns to the PCC, Thu 14th May at 6:15pm. This is David Cronenberg at his peak, a perfect balance of body horror and heartbreak - raw, tragic, and utterly grotesque. 🎟️: buff.ly/zZQ8zhn

Overdue 😍 Post-punk icons Joy Division and New Order have finally received the recognition they deserve: Both bands have been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Class of 2026. After three nominations—the first two of which failed—they've finally made it. #postpunk #joydivision #neworder
