(Ryan Gosling did his best, god bless him. I do still have time for him, surprisingly).
And don't get me started on the alien, which conveyed all the cosmic mystery and exoticism of a puppet play touring regional primary schools. Christ, I could go on but we've got lives to live. I don't get to the movies often enough for one of them to wind up being this steaming pile.
Also it was shit. It stole shamelessly from the great sci-fi films. Most notably Arrival -one of the grt films of recent yrs in my opinion- of which it is like a bad Mad magazine parody. The mix of sci-fi meant to fill you with tension & wonder & so-so wisecracking comedy REALLY fell flat for me.
Hard agree. I found it depressing as fuck that millions were spent on this twee, jokesy piece of average abt a mega-mission to save us all from a fictional climate crisis when we're ACTUALLY in A REAL one which most of the planet -including this ennoying film- IS MINIMISING & AVOIDING THINKING ABT!

Had a scotch for Jon out of this last night. A sad day. #valejon

HAPPY BIRTHDAY F*&K!! X
Really great Matt.
Full disclosure-this joke isn't mine. It's my kid's that I've stolen. I don't use others' jokes... except family I live with, (w their blessing. They can help pay the bills). These collabs are infrequent, but this gag was too gd. Tip o' the hat to u R.Weldon :)

Love this.
Holy Shit - we are in 2025 and the Liberal leader STILL can't say the worsening weather we are seeing is because of climate change. "I am not a scientist"
Fuck me.
Looking more likely every day, tbh.

Now showing - on many, many screens, everywhere. Ugh.

I drew this in early Feb and since then it has looked less and less like satire and increasingly like real life. Ffs.

Watched the White House footage this morning with horror. The brilliant David Rowe (@rowecartoon.bsky.social ) captures the moment perfectly.
It is the 100th birthday of The New Yorker magazine this week. I so admire so many of the cartoonists in there, today and from past years. I got in, once only, in Nov '06 - forever a career highlight. Still, so proud to have been a tiny little part of their story. Happy birthday @newyorker.com!
Got it?
I could really go some Megafauna Chipsβ’ right about now.
I pledged to post more on the socials just before the majority of the socials started to feel ick due to Trump-suck-up tech bros. Ugh. Bluesky seems relatively un-ick, for now at least. I'm still on IG & FB but like most scraped, compromised creatives, feeling pretty conflicted there...
Waiting with trepidation for the day after tomorrow, along with the rest of the world...
(NB: It's not my original observation but this gun/nuclear factoid can't be repeated often enough...)
