I'm confused: are the nuns actually typhoons? #monsterdon

Soooo...these aliens motivations are basically "I'm going to take my ball and go home"? #monsterdon

I'm no radiation expert, but shouldn't he have waited to take off the gear before, you know, leaving the room? #monsterdon

Hang on...is this entire film just an elaborate Jack Chick tract? #monsterdon

Why does Christopher Lee look younger in this than in any prior film? Is it because he is actually a vampire? Make-up? Lighting? (That last one is laughable, considering how this movie is lit.) #monsterdon

How much money did movies in the late 70s and early 80s save on scores done entirely with synthesizers? Dozens of dollars? Hundreds? Enough to have an extra special Craft service? #monsterdon

Whelp, Amazon just killed everything that made their Luna cloud gaming platform great - namely, the ability to play remotely games from third-party libraries like those from GOG. Such a shame, as Luna was IMHO really primed to be the best successor to Google Stadia, but even better with these third-party integrations. The constant drive by companies for Apple-like closed platforms is just...shitty. #Enshittification https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html

My pull list of comics for this coming Wednesday. I was planning on skipping the new Supes/Spidey team-up, but man, the description AND this cover were too compelling to pass up. I&#39;m also looking forward to the second in this new Phantom series; the first mini-series was excellent. #comics https://www.zeuscomics.com/checklist-share/3559

It is the year 2026. We don&#39;t have jetpacks, sadly, but you would think the technology exists now so we can wear our glasses when getting our I.D. photos and not always look like a frightened raccoon in all official documentation.
