[Gregory Brew @gbrew24]

One of the most tragic figures in American fiction.

@CathyYoung63 He is very anti-corporate, but I wouldn't say his politics broadly are left-leaning.

RIP Marjane Satrapi, the great cartoonist and film director, best known for PERSEPOLIS. She was only 56. A great talent. She will be missed.

@thorku No option for the field?

"Under President Trump and @SecWar Hegseth, meritocracy reigns supreme at the War Department."

This is a self-refuting sentence. There is no world in which a meritocracy yields Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense.

@traderscrucible @DerekPederson3 100%.

@theqbschool This is the good stuff.

@ChrisTrapasso It's a good deal, but that first probably won't be enough for them to package for Arch. They're going to need to land the 1.1 on their own.

@Cincinnatus56 Which is to say he is a man of the moment.

@ian_tb03 Looking forward to comparing this with New Cold.War, which I like quite a bit.

@DrewSav The solution is to make a good Star Wars movie.

@agraybee @bigseb31213 @CentristMadness Yes, exactly.

@FB_FilmAnalysis The 2026 Arizona Cardinals.

@agraybee @bigseb31213 @CentristMadness Standardized testing scores tie closely to family income, so if you just focus on them in isolation, you can argue that they perpetuate rather than reduce inequalities. But of course all the other academic markers also tie to family income, so...

@aroberts_andrew I think in part filmmakers err by trying to use Napoleon's language from his letters and proclamations, which has aged incredibly poorly.

[Andrew Roberts @aroberts_andrew]

An excellent article by Joseph Beck on why Napoleon has so rarely been captured well on screen: https://t.co/4xDOTE7U28 #Napoleon #NapoleonBonaparte #Bonaparte

@SamuelFByers I was underwhelmed at the time and vastly preferred Rogue One. I have since come to appreciate it more. It's a full movie, while TLJ is generously half a movie and ROS is not a movie at all.

@gbrew24 I mean, sure, if they give it to Tony Gilroy.
