These both look excellent. August 16 for Alien: Romulus and July 26 for Deadpool & Wolverine. Word on the street is that D&W is going to get Disney and Marvel back on track. Not even sure I want that, but it looks fun.
Suddenly I Don’t Feel So Old
There’s something vaguely embarrassing about still being in a band at almost 56, like I should be past it now. But maybe not.
Sire?
Don’t tell Mrs. Makerbot but I just bought one of these. Great basses for not much dough, plus free shipping, no tax (still scratching my head on that one), and a bag. Hopefully QC wasn’t asleep at the wheel when mine was produced.
And if you know anybody looking for a gently used Mexican Fender Jazz bass, holla. It’s gorgeous, but too many knobs for this moron, and heavy. Plus, I could never get the action like I wanted.

Françoise Hardy has hopped the twig, aged 80.
I Am Magneto! You Are Nothing
As indicated in the YouTube comments, this arcade game was MASSIVE in the early 90’s. Fun game, but really fun when other players jumped in to help you fight. On the big two monitor machines it was a six-player maximum, so all the X-Men could battle their way to final boss Magneto. (Whom I never reached.) Impressive this guy did it by himself.
If nothing else, just watch the intro.
These Just Keep Getting Better
Funny stuff.
