Full performance of Fast Car by Tracy Chapman with Luke Combs at the Grammys. Her smile at the beginning is the best.

On this day in 2007, Prince performed a medley of hits at the Super Bowl XLI Halftime show in Miami, including "Let's Go Crazy," "Baby I'm A Star," "1999" and covers of "Proud Mary," "All Along The Watchtower," and "Best of You." The 12-minute show concluded with a legendary version of “Purple Rain” unleashed during a driving rainstorm.

@oliviaghhh This thread is outstanding, so much infomation, such a carefully considered set of points.

The Representation of Girlhood in Yellowjackets: A Thread 🧵 Spoiler Warning Ahead #304F23 @cfuchstv

@oliviaghhh @restisc0nfetti The limits of a twitter-thread, and the value of what's left out of anything defined by its limits.

@restisc0nfetti @cfuchstv exactly! i wanted to include so much more, including the allie storyline. however i only had so much space in a twitter thread. i honestly feel as if i could write a full thesis on this.

@BenjaminDo87879 Perfect image for this point.

From the first episode of #DS9, it was clear that Sisko was a different type of leader; a man with personal baggage and a bitterness toward Starfleet. Could longtime fans come to accept this radical departure from the traditional franchise structure? #304F23 @cfuchstv

Star Trek #DS9's central protagonist Captain Benjamin Sisko challenged the normalities of how a StarFleet could and would operate. He was determined, ruthless, sometimes violent, and exactly what the franchise needed at the time. @cfuchstv #304F23

@DouglasXaviJ "Recipe" is a good word for it. it's like the movies are "food."

Ultimately, what people choose to watch is a matter of personal preference, however, if superhero films are going to continue to follow the same recipe then this genre will soon die. Especially when the film industry continues to evolve based on audience demands and tastes.

The new superhero films, specifically Marvel are taking over cinema for the worse. Along with successful franchises, they seem to dominate the box office. Just like any other media on the internet, this seems to be the “trend” when it comes to films in our time. #304F23 @cfuchstv

@SarahRa97306042 Good example, and in a complicated movie: does this movie critique or perpetuate the problem, or both at once?

One way to reframe this is to ask “what is the purpose of this choice?” Why is the camera lingering on her legs? What is the purpose of objectifying this character? If there is not a purpose, pursue other avenues.

Reframing the way that women are portrayed in films can combat the negative effects of Laura Mulvey’s male gaze theory. @cfuchstv @304F23

@MaynardMar25163 Love this: sitcoms can be formulaic, and you make the genre and Wandavision in particular compelling.

Wanda Vision and the Safety of Sitcoms: Wanda & Vision, a power couple in the Marvel Universe set the backdrop for this eerie dark comedy series which highlights the important role of the American sitcom. So... Let's talk about WANDAVISON! @cfuchstv and #304F23

@madko304 Given the sort of simultaneous popularity and the critical backlash re. both Euphoria + The Idol, the "takes" on SL are complicated. Good job here, parsing these and making your case.

Exploring the stories of women and girls who are experiencing hard times is something that I wish to do in my own work. But for a man to take these experiences and saturate them with the male gaze and grotesque sexualization because it adheres to an artistic choice is…gross.

Twitter Thread Essay: It’s Time to Embrace Scientific Accuracy in Paleo-Media #304F23 @cfuchstv

@geniusbrainDAN Excellent focus for a thread on X/Twitter, maybe especially now, given the permutations. Good thinking about how platforms *amplify*.

@cfuchstv #304F23 In the present day, social media platforms such as “X” amplify every opinion, and the spread of hate and criticism has become very superficial, particularly in the entertainment and sports industries. This trend is not only unwarranted, but often overshadows the

@henry_nate88194 Informative and well-constructed. And your research is good.

@cfuchstv #304F23 One of the biggest things Americans seem to be passionate about is the First Amendment or Freedom of Speech. However, I would argue that the First Amendment is not as liberating to creatives as some would think.🇺🇸

@Mac_02273 Great background on the series, beautifully made thread.

One Piece is a BELOVED Shonen Jump original manga that was created by Eiichiro Oda and began being serialized in July 1997 and has been ongoing to this day. On 10/20/99, the first episode of the anime adaptation aired and like the manga, has been running ever since. @cfuchstv
