Attention- @FrightFest has opened up another screening for #blockhead after out first one has sold out.. get your tickets here for the 11pm showing - frightfest.co.uk/2025London/BLO… #featurefilm #Producer

Jack Nicholson’s contract on BATMAN let him stop work, remove his Joker makeup, and leave by 6pm no matter the schedule, so the production had to shoot his scenes earlier in the day.

This is one of the greatest comedy bits I have seen anywhere. I am rarely jealous of other people's jokes. But I am hella jealous of this by @TheBanat

Please read the words of John Davidson’s contact to the sinners team.

Japan has unveiled grocery bags made from potato starch that disappear safely in water instead of lingering like plastic. These bags are sturdy enough for everyday shopping, yet they dissolve naturally without leaving harmful residue behind. Unlike conventional plastic, they don’t survive for centuries in the ocean or threaten marine ecosystems. Even in cold water, the material breaks down completely, and if swallowed by fish or turtles, it dissolves without causing damage. With millions of tons of plastic entering the seas each year, this kind of innovation could significantly cut pollution. Japan’s solution shows how simple, practical design can make sustainable habits part of daily life. #environment #plasticfree #sustainability #innovation

Some call it the "Doomsday Glacier," a vast expanse of Antarctic ice roughly the size of Florida. Formely named the Thwaites Glacier, as temperatures rise, it is melting fast and threatens to raise global sea levels. That's why a team of nearly 40 researchers is embarking on a two-month journey to study it. @milesobrien has more.

🇬🇧To the UK government: the more people you arrest to shamefully cover up Israel's genocide the more decent people will stand up against you in the name of human rights. In the end, we will all make sure that the leaders who are complicit with Israel genocide will face justice.

This feels like a first class cinema experience...

"Love how Prince is hidden in the dark before his solo; like he is the secret weapon to make this song into a banger." "Who's seen this an ungodly amount of times over the years, and STILL gets the chills when Prince strolls out to conjure up spirits?" While My Guitar Gently Weeps performance at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction is and will always be one of a kind. Watch how Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood, Dhani Harrison Prince create something incredible to honour George Harrison at the 2004 Induction Ceremony.
