The episode starts with Captain Picard visiting Lt. Worf's quarters. Worf, practicing Klingon martial arts with his bat'leth.The two discuss events that happened in previous episodes; the dishonor that had befell Worf's family and his ensuing discommendation. Worf's family, the House of Mogh, had been framed as Romulan collaborators by (spoiler alert) the Duras sisters Lursa and B'Etor. And (another spoiler) they are the real Romulan collaborators.First, can we talk about how rare it was in the…
I’m still working my way through the British kings, and since I’ve been watching and
I mentioned Milton Berle in passing on Saturday, and on tonight's show one of Uncle Miltie's guests is singer and future soap opera legend Bill Hayes, performing his biggest hit, "The Ballad of Davy Crockett," which was number one for five weeks. It was the most popular of three versions of the song that charted in 1955; the other two were by Tennessee Ernie Ford and Davy Crockett himself, Fess Parker, so Hayes's feat was no mean achievement. That and much more, in this week's Chicago edition,…
Alexander Zeldin’s new play Care, making its UK premiere at the Young Vic is a hard one to categorise and its effect on audiences will be hard to gauge. It has a story about life in a care home filled with older people living out their days looked after by two nurses but there are […]
By Jason YoungdaleYoungdale ProductionsDCC/OSRLevels 1-2 Long ago, beneath the fertile valleys south of Castle Dragonwater, a minor baron swore fealty to the Starved King, a demonic entity of hunger. In exchange, the baron’s land flourished with endless crops and fattened livestock. When the baron died, his descendants sealed the King’s shrine in terror—but the hunger below never ended. Now, farmers near Horndale report crops rotting overnight and livestock turning feral. Strange lights flicker…
It’s no secret that the Hollywood Comet loves musicals. In 2010, I revealed I had seen 400 movie musicals over the course of eight years. Now that number is over 600. To celebrate and share this musical love, here is … Continue reading →
A couple of years ago I went to a huge show of Paul Cézanne’s paintings at Tate Modern, full of anticipation. I left feeling disappointed. Too many bowls of apples, too many Montagnes Sainte-Victoire. It was indigestible. One of each would have had more impact. The disappointment was nothing to do with Cézanne or his obsessions. For the consumer, sometimes less is more. That was my consolation last night, leaving Paul Simon’s concert at the London Palladium at the interval, which occurred after…
Shein? Nah, Sheout
Also on 24 in 24: Last Chef Standing season 3 episode 4, I heard the best answer ever to the standard reality TV question: "How will this prize change you and the course of human history?"
🍿 Finished watching: Remarkably Bright Creatures. Fantastic movie. I don’t think I’ve seen a Sally Field movie since Mrs.Doubtfire, but she really nailed her character and lifts the movie.
Edward G arranges for a desperate nazi to escape prison so he’ll lead them to the big man. Eddie (just after Scarlet Street) gets knocked out and loses the trail of his guy (K Shayne of a Boetticher noir), so he doesn’t see Orson Welles strangle Shayne in the woods, decides to hang around this Connecticut town until more leads turn up. When your old nazi friend drops in on your wedding day: Orson is so confident in his new wife Loretta Young (oscar winner the following year) that he admits to…
The title and premise sound exciting, but the movie is a sweaty bewigged newscaster (Roman Wilhelmi of Zulawski’s Chopin biopic The Blue Note, with Robert Picardo vibes) being tormented by everyone, including martians, who look like silver-spraypainted oompa loompas in puffy coats. Decaloguists Krystyna Janda and Jerzy Stuhr get a big scene each. The most believable detail is that the biggest music act in the country is called The Instant Glue. Gotta watch the blu extras and learn more about…

The crew began with location filming in Washington state and concluded with scenes shot on sets and on location in Southern California. Scenes from the Palmer and Hayward homes were captured in Everett, Washington between September 23-29, 1991....

Political satire in which the colorful, hatchet-wielding Temperance crusader Carrie Nation attacks a bar and smashes its mirror before being driven off by cinema’s favorite comedy weapon, seltzer. Home Media Availability: Released on out-of-print DVD Hatchet Woman On May 31, 1900, Carrie Nation, a devout Temperance activist, went from preaching to violence when she used […]
Filmszene aus „The Drama“ mit Robert Pattinson und Zendaya, Foto: A24 „The Drama“ sieht aus wie eine RomCom, benimmt sich aber wie ein Nervenzusammenbruch. Das macht den Film mit Robert Pattinson und Zendaya für mich zu einem der besten des Jahres. Denn aus romantischer Nervosität wird schnell etwas sehr viel Schrägeres und Unangenehmeres. Eine Kritik über einen Film, der seine eigenen RomCom-Elemente konsequent vergiftet. Mit Vorwissen, aber ohne Spoiler Vor dem Kinobesuch hatte ich schon…
vera ellen - thaw calling my pop hit of the summer
by Elisa Giudici Pawel Pawlikowski has always been a filmmaker of absence. Empty space, withheld emotion, silence so heavy it seems architectural: his cinema has long depended less on what characters say than on what lingers unresolved between them. Fatherland may be the purest expression of that sensibility, a film reduced to such an essential form that it almost appears to vanish while unfolding, only to return afterward with quiet, devastating force. At first, it can seem unexpectedly modest…
by Nathaniel R John McRae & Mihir Kumar starred in "Prince Faggot". Photo © Marc J Franklin As many readers know a few members of Team Experience belong to GALECA the Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics though most of us vote on the film and television side. I have the privilege of also being a voter in the society's Dorian Theater Awards, which celebrate both Broadway & Off Broadway productions. The nominations were announced this past week for the 2025-2026 theater season which wrapped up…
Sundry Sunday is our weekly feature of fun gaming culture finds and videos, from across the years and even decades. Glitch Productions has made a number of well-loved bits of Youtube culture, most notably so far: the concluded Murder Drones, the nearly-done Amazing Digital Circus, and the forthcoming Knights of Guenevere. Their newest pilot is heavily game-themed, so you can probably expect to see it return to Sunday Sunday eventually. Called “The Gameoververse,” it follows a team of hero-types…
This 20 minute video, I found today, illustrates impressively why AI and above all Generative AI is nothing more than worthless. The original (and best version) is in German, but the translation in English (YT AI?) does the job… Für Euch reicht’s from Fynn Kröger: Es ist die Haltung von Influencern, Fernsehsendern, Filmproduktionen und Marken da draußen, das es für das eigentliche Publikum schon reichen würde, ihnen nur Schatten an die Wand zu werfen, statt ihnen die echten Objekte vor dem…

I didn't watch Star Wars when it was released. I wasn't even born. By the time we popped the cassette tape in the VCR, it was at least 15 years old. But I liked the movie all the same. It was not my favorite film by any means, but it was memorable. The first time you see Darth Vader appear on screen, you know this villain is not going to be easy to defeat. "Villain" because no one needs to tell you who the good guys and bad guys are in this movie. The visuals, the voices, the music, everything…
i only got to see the animation portion of the 7th edition of the istanbul experimental film festival, and although it wouldn’t be fair to judge it based on just one screening, it didn’t feel as intriguing as last year’s. Previous
Cocoon really is something quite special – you can tell from the very beginning it is a labor of love by director Daixuan Yuan, who created this animated short for their third year film at CalArts. It draws together a number of elements from different writers and artists to become something of a synthesis – a complete piece of art in and of itself that is beautiful to look at and intriguing to watch. Visually, it is exquisite, The plot is inspired by Edogawa Ranpo’s novel, A Brute’s Love. It…
Fantastic Film Festival Australia, 23 April to 15 May.Film festival mode is now complete having been to Lido to see another 30 movies since Hokum. I keep the film reviews and reflections to my Letterboxd account so I won't be repeating all that here. Instead, a few summed thoughts.Going to see an entire film festival program* means letting someone else completely curate your experience. It's not the same as picking out five or 10 films that look appealing because doing that means missing out on…
Aziraphale, now Supreme Archangel, seeks Crowley’s help as plans for the Second Coming take a surprising yet dangerous turn. I loved the idea of this TV series, but the finale turned sour pretty quick. Production value has decreased, and not even the combined powers and skills of David Tennant and Michael Sheen couldn’t drag this out of the mud. The story is all over the place and it’s not really worth the time. Bad ending, two popcorns. To see all 9 photos, visit the article page. This article…
Yes, it happens every spring - baseball fever. And it hits us sports fans hard. For Professor Vernon Simpson, he becomes a different person altogether when baseball season starts. As the dean of the college where he works says, "Every spring he seems to undergo a peculiar change, he becomes absent minded to a degree. It's like spring fever - only it lasts all summer."20th-Century-Fox released a number of comedies in the late 1940s-early 1950s, many of which featured plots involving some kind of…
