When the world seems close to pear shaped,
When leaders fill you with despair

CUDDLE A DUCK

Sam Neill brought warmth, wit, and quiet strength to every role he played. For generations, he’ll always be Dr. Alan Grant, the heart of Jurassic Park.
Christopher Nolan on AI:
“I’ve never seen a more rapid wholesale dismissal of a supposedly foundational jump in technology in my lifetime. So much energy has been expended on bringing in AI, but if you look at that generation’s reaction, they’re utterly rejecting it. [My children’s] judgment of AI slop has been immediate and harsh. They see it for what it is very quickly – and it’s much easier for them to identify it, because it grew out of an online world they know really well. And while that doesn’t mean that every aspect of the technology is useless or meaningless, in film-making it’s hitting at exactly the wrong time. After years of driving towards heavily virtual environments, we’re seeing a renewed interest in more tactile, more real forms of storytelling.”

Christopher Nolan says that not owning a smartphone keeps him from going online to “debunk rumors, argue with haters, or respond to gossip” including the rumor that he was directing a Blue Thunder remake. He says he was “bewildered” when he first heard it.
“I have absolutely no idea where it came from. And besides, I was always more of an Airwolf fan.”
