I think Batman works better as a period piece. Honestly I think the whole DC Universe works better as a period piece.


Celebrating America’s 250th birthday in Front Royal! 🇺🇸 It was a joy to join the town at their community block party – and to take part in the ‘potluck’. Their Majesties contribution was none other than… a Coronation Quiche! 🥧 ‘America’s Potluck’ is a 250th celebration initiative, which aims to bring neighbours together across the country to share a communal meal and build a sense of connection in their community. Thank you for having us! 👋

Here are a few of the experiences coming to @UniversalORL this summer! JAWS INSPIRED WHAT?! 🦈


Farewell to the co-creator of one of my favorite franchises of all time. Thank you Roger Sweet for everything. You will be missed. #MastersoftheUniverse #HeMan

This is actually kinda insane In 1996, a 14-year-old kid watched Jaws and got obsessed with Quint’s WWII monologue. He then began researching the 1945 sinking of the USS Indianapolis, interviewed around 150 survivors, and reviewed 800 documents. His research focused on the role of the ship’s captain, Charles B. McVay III, who had been court-martialed after the incident. He came to believe that Captain Charles Butler McVay III, who had been blamed for the tragedy, was innocent. The 14-year-old, Hunter Scott, presented his findings to the United States Congress at age 14. In 2000, Congress passed a resolution clearing Captain McVay’s name, and the U.S. Navy later formally exonerated him.



On this date in 1865, Col. John Mosby disbanded his 43rd Virginia cavalry battalion in a field at Salem in Fauquier County, Virginia
