Made a list of movies set when it’s really stinking HOT outside for the ole film club and a summer watchlist, anything I’m missing here. Please any and all suggestions would just be dandy

@BLymanWarrior and if they go with Cruise-Powell Color of Money 2 then that can also serve as the actual passing of the torch to Powell for the M:I franchise — where can we pick up our executive producer checks?
(Lucas Hedges, we will never forget about you.)
English
@Ben__Nadeau Reviewing my previous thoughts on the matter, I had a prescient read on Hollywood in Jan 2022. Nailed the glen powell phenomenon before maverick came out, missing with my Hedges pick, need him back in the movies in a big way

It’s time. Color of Money sequel, compete the trilogy. Us good citizens deserve it

After almost 16 years stuck on this never-ending hellscape, here is my final tweet:
Cam Thomas, you are a bucket — I love you.
See you all on Bluesky.

I sincerely hope the state of New York combines to go 4-160 this year in the National Basketball Association.

Finally making a premier league club selection this year after years of just following international football…down to four finalists, it’s serious business here to pick a club. Need to dial in, any advice is welcome

Getting upset about the Nets being bad again is silly. This is all you’ve ever known. This is all you’ll ever know. Whether you were born into it or chose the fandom, this is your fate forever.
Live. Laugh. Love. The Nets are back. Actually, they never left. They never will.

Praying to the old gods and the new for the Celtics to just eat their food instead of playing with it tonight.
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
Cavaliers' Caris LeVert, Jarrett Allen and Craig Porter also OUT for Game 5 vs. Boston tonight.

It’s crazy watching national media suddenly feign shock over the Vaughn dismissal… tuning into any single Nets game since Thanksgiving might’ve clued you into the shortcomings and lack of love both the players and fans have been experiencing.
English
We are officially back on schedule, folks!

Rooting for another Brooklyn Nets team that’s destined for 7th place in the Eastern Conference is my god-given right and you’ll have to rip it out of my cold, dead hands

@jwaks @OldManAndThree It’s so refreshing to hear smart folks that also like to watch basketball still
English
JJ and RJ are by far the best basketball analysts out right now. Would love to see RJ on @OldManAndThree more

Would the Sox splurge on any of those guys?

His kind gesture meant a ton to a young writer like me trying to find my way in the locker room and I still think about it all the time.
I wish Ricky nothing but the best and I hope he finds all the post-NBA peace he's looking for. The highlights were immaculate, my friend.
English
Feeling rejected, I turned to leave and Ricky suddenly remembered our pre-game conversation, called me back, apologized for forgetting, and then spent 6-10 minutes just chatting with me after going through a crummy loss.
English
Back when I was still writing about basketball, I asked Ricky Rubio for an interview before a game - but I'd gotten there too late.
Instead, Ricky told me to come back after the game... but by then, Utah had blown a big 4Q lead to Boston and the team wasn't too happy about it.
