If you dig #DIG & you're Canadian know it'll be broadcast on @ShowcaseTV well...weekly. Which is weak.
It's airing with weekly back-to-back episodes at 9 & 9:30 p.m. starting on the 23rd.
It's a binge release for Americans on Peacock.
In Canada they did Dig dirty. #SetTheVCR
I got the 2 scoops on #IceCreamMan:
November 13 on @PrimeVideoCA
November 20 on @Shudder in the US.
As it's a horror movie you'd think this would be about Vanilla Ice's tragic career but that'd be too cold, too cold. Word to your mother. #SetTheVCR
Get ready to scream for ICE CREAM MAN. A summer delight like no other from director Eli Roth.
Watch the teaser now. In UK cinemas August 7th.

Hah. I wrote an IG comment about this series, opening with "do real fans want this?"
You know...a TV show about replicants...so real fans was a playful pun about yes...fandom and the core element of the series. Clever! :)
Predictably idiots melted down: no cyber just punks.
The replicants have risen. Humanity has fallen. Blade Runner 2099, a new limited series, premieres November 25th on @PrimeVideo.

Right now, @FANEXPOCANADA is basically #Halloween: an annual dress-up event.
Yes, we have Toronto Comicon earlier in the year, but it might be time for a third convention to handle demand. I don't know when, though.
#Toronto is rammed packed with events all year round.
Thank you for your feedback. We're listening and can't wait to welcome you back in 2027.

#StrangerThings was digital New Coke:
Netflix has no valid reason to celebrate this cheap nostalgia.
The badly written series is now an avatar of the lazy—a vile shorthand for how streaming TV has truly been turned Upside Down.
You're bad at TV if you need years to make it.
This is always gonna be janky clickbait: "guys!! look they're making all the staff work 5 days a week in the office...therefore they must be evil!!"
Yes, because logically, that's what unites all James Bond villains. Nobody works on doomsday lasers from home.

Spooky Season offers not just horror movies; but horror comics too.
That genre is 🔥, thanks to creators like Jeff Lemire.
Jeff visited #MSL to talk X-Men (mutants!), hometown ghosts (scary!) & the 10k-hour grind (frightening!) or rather 10k Ink Stains.

Billy Corgan is not required to "defend his friendship with Marilyn Manson..." like what kind of loser talks like that?
Sainthood isn't a requirement for friendships. Ya can't sell "be kind, you don't know what people are going through!" all while demanding purity tests.
Billy Corgan defends his friendship with Marilyn Manson, compares himself to Kanye West, and explains his resentment toward the "hipster writer class"

Why is every single intimacy coordinator story so boring?
We get it...ya gotta keep actors safe doesn't matter if it's an action moment or a business time. This is just vapid clickbait and rudderless pop culture.
Spotlight editors and DOPs, the public don't know what they do.
Emily Osment has revealed she requested an intimacy coordinator while filming "Young Sheldon" because of her "uncomfortable" age gap with co-star Montana Jordan:
“That made me uncomfortable. He was a baby! A baby with a mullet. So I spoke to Tim Marx, and obviously they were not able to get one that late in the day, but for the next few episodes they had one there, since the relationship between them escalates,” Osment said. “It made everything easier having one there. I think it’s something that’s really important.”

It's surreal we culturally lost Bugs Bunny and Optimus Prime in the same year. (And both Canadians, as well.)
Rest Now.

In 2022 #StephenKing tweeted: “I just saw the first episode of #From. I was absolutely riveted. True edge-of-your-seat stuff, believable & scary as hell.”
King added: “Is it possible these people are dead & don’t know it?”
From is on @Netflix, see if King was right. #SetTheVCR
You know which essential element was wholly missing from #MikeFlanagan’s flawed Carrie? Stephen King vibes.
You know what horror TV show has loads of Stephen King vibes?

“In short, the numbers didn’t move the needle.”
I'm always curious what the "magic number" is, now.
Back in the day, it was just count eyeballs.
But today, what's the formula?
Social media engagement?
Demographics?
Syfy's supernatural drama Revival will not be returning for Season 2.
Despite its recent debut on Netflix intended to boost its chances, the "Netflix bump" wasn't enough to secure a renewal for the comic book adaptation.
