This is the next #StarWars TV series I want to see - Kleya & Vel working with the Bothan spies to get the information about the 2nd Death Star, which flows nicely into Return of the Jedi There is a scene in Return of the Jedi when Mon Mothma struggles to speak about the sacrifice of the Bothan spies who died to bring the rebellion this crucial information. Its almost as if she lost someone close to her who was working with the Bothan spies. You can't ask for a more perfect setting for an #Andor spinoff!

I see a lot of EPL fans jumping on this bandwagon of Italian clubs are not good enough or dated coz they only hire Italian coaches. Thats a lazy narrative, and also an incorrect one The problem with Italian clubs isn't the coaches, its the lack of investment and years of poor planning by FIGC. In fact Italy produces a lot of good coaches, and always has, just like Spain & Germany. Unlike countries like England who don't produce top coaches and need to rely on foreign coaches Gasperini and Conte and Inzaghi are great coaches, as are Italiano and Sarri and Mancini, etc, just like Ancelotti and Maresca and De Zerbi. There are some good foreign coaches in Serie A too like Chivu and Fabregas For eg: EPL is the best league in the world, and in the last 20 years 4 different Italian coaches have won that league There is a problem with Italian coaches, that they are very tactic heavy and hence usually prefer experienced players - which does not help with youth development. But that has been a problem forever, even when Serie A clubs were dominating Europe in the 90s winning pretty much everything. This is a separate issue, and is true for many top managers outside of Italy too. It is not a reason for poor performance of Serie A clubs in Europe Right now, the main problems in Serie A are DESPITE good coaches rather than because of them

Am I the only one who thinks Allegri may do well at Napoli? He is inheriting a quality squad. He can slowly tweak Conte's team just like he did in his first innings at Juventus. Allegri may be crap at turning around a broken team, but as history has shown us, he can be a good follow up act to Conte

@Variety I think some people may be judging this a bit too early x.com/3point4km/stat…

From the team that brought you “Why is Snow White Latina?,” “Why are there Black people in ‘The Rings of Power’?,” and “Star Wars has gone woke” comes the latest online onslaught against the diverse cast of “The Odyssey.” These culture warriors have been led to battle by their own personal Agamemnon, Elon Musk.

TIME’s new cover: ‘The Odyssey’ is arguably the biggest film of Christopher Nolan’s career. It may also be the summer blockbuster the entertainment industry needs right now time.com/article/2026/0…

Christopher Nolan is defending the historical accuracy of the armor in #TheOdyssey: “There are Mycenaean daggers that are blackened bronze. The theory is they probably could have blackened bronze in those days. You take bronze, you add more gold and silver to it and then use sulfur… With Agamemnon, Ellen [Mirojnick], our costume designer, is trying to communicate how elevated he is relative to everyone else. You do that through materials that would be very expensive.” (via Time) wp.me/pc8uak-1lHg5Q

Christopher Nolan explains why he cast Travis Scott in ‘THE ODYSSEY’: “I cast him because I wanted to nod towards the idea that this story has been handed down as oral poetry, which is analogous to rap.” (Source: time.com/article/2026/0…)

@DiscussingFilm Nolan usually tries to do things differently x.com/3point4km/stat…

Christopher Nolan instructed Ludwig Göransson not to use an orchestra for ‘THE ODYSSEY’ score. “It’s not like the orchestra existed back then. It was a challenge and also an opening to try to make something unique.” (Source: time.com/article/2026/0…)

Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy, Matt Damon as Odysseus, etc. It feels like a very American cast, not Greek at all, so I get the criticism But Nolan is one of the very few quality filmmakers left in Hollywood. I will judge The #Odyssey after I see it

@maiden_of_spear Who do you think would be the perfect Kaladin casting? x.com/3point4km/stat…

"KALADIN!!! THE WORDSSSSS!!!" Or "YOU CANNOT HAVE MY PAIN!" Or "I will protect those I hate even if the one I hate the most...is myself" Or "You are not a monster, Shallan..."

What are you most looking forward to seeing in the live-action television series adaptation of #TheStormlightArchive?

@Zepp1978 One of my favourites, my kids love it too. Its just such an awesome story

Why does Avatar: The Last Airbender never get old?

@Zepp1978 Coincidently, I did the same last month… ended up watching 4 seasons until it got a bit too repetitive The only reality tv I watch is Naked & Afraid XL, that’s hard survival in the wild stuff if you are into that kind of thing

For 25 years I’ve avoided watching Survivor because I think reality TV is kinda phony. I was scrolling Paramount+ this morning and said what the hell and tried the first episode from 2000. My interest is certainly peaked because I do love me some survival stories. Wild.

@Mind_XXXXX Yes, as of 25 Aug. Not sure if there has been any further dilution or ETH purchases since, can't find any publicly available info on that

@3point4km Is this accurate data?

Several $ETH treasury plays are now trading below their net asset value: • $BMNR: holds $8.58B in ETH/BTC/cash, yet market cap = $7.91B • $SBET: holds $3.66B, market cap = $3.26B • $HYPD: holds $68.4M, market cap = $37.8M Analysts call this mNAV < 1 — when the market values the company less than the assets it owns. Historically, these inversions tend to correct upward.

@Mind_XXXXX TradingView is outdated, things change too quickly with a company like $BMNR. I have calculated using the latest "outstanding shares" data from 5 days ago, & the current $BMNR market price

@3point4km TradingView currently shows the market capitalization as 7.57B. $BMNR

Looks like Emperor Palpatine couldn't save Anakin Skywalker in our timeline #StarWars 🤣

🤣

@TheCinesthetic Pulp Fiction

Which movie soundtrack slaps from beginning to end?

Type the year you turned 18 into the GIF bar and post the best GIF you see.

None of the changes really annoy me. If I have to pick one, then I would have loved to see the Scouring of the Shire. But the reason none of the changes annoy me is coz the movies stand on their own merit as a great trilogy. One of my favourite adaptations. Obviously there will be changes in an adaptation, and we all dislike changes to our favourite stories. But the true test of an adaptation is how good is the final product, and LOTR was outstanding. When you compare this with the adaptations of some of my other favourite books (looking at ya, #WheelOfTime), you gotta admire how close to the books Peter Jackson managed to adapt in that idiotic Hollywood environment For me, LOTR is THE best example of how to adapt fantasy books into movies

What change annoys you the most in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings? Here's mine:
