@empiremagazine I’m so far away from my print editions these days! But I’m one of those that has kept their collection from 1992 to around the 2010s intact. Is Pint of Milk still in? The spine message? The hidden snark in the masthead/ publishing info? The “You’re fired, Ed.)?

@junesfoshiz On Succession? YES, Top 5 of the century good. I'm still thinking about that Kendall Roy press conference in the Season 2 finale.

@Brian_Tallerico Did the NYTimes specify American shows?

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@TheLOSTworld_ Mostly American shows? Did the NYT explain in the full story?

@vicentgodella Folks, Scheduled Send is your friend. It helps me to write the message when the thought strikes me, but I don’t want to get a message from me after hours. Schedule the message to land at 9am

@pickler72 This isn't woke. This is American bias.

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@RobbinMilne @usopen I lived through the Connors/McEnroe/Agassi/Sampras era. The US commentary, even the choice of point replay, was even more biased. It made me a Lendl fan.

@mikemovies I like NONE of these

@mikemovies The best Hitchcock movie?

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@TheCinesthetic Wot, the curtains?!

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@louisvirtel Even a role as wheelhouse-y as the uptight Mrs Medlock in The Secret Garden, Maggie Smith put such prime into it. So amazing.

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@mrbrianrowe And top it off, an actual Rhodes scholar

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@TheCinesthetic How to Train Your Dragon

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@louisvirtel Especially any of the burns she put out to Sidney Cochran.

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@mikemovies 1980s Woody Allen was prime. Are you going to get to Broadway Danny Rose? Mia Farrow with a tough Jersey accent actually works, and shockingly, there's a scene where Woody's acting is just sublime. I still think about this reaction scene towards of the movie from time to time…

@mikemovies Hannah and her Sisters fell flat for you? It’s a delightful mix of smart comedy and emotions of a family dynamics. (“I don’t know how the can opener works” still cracks me up)

@PatrickC895106 @mikemovies And he was even more beautiful than his sister, Julia

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@mikemovies I mean it: Shia Labeouf. Haven’t seen any Transformers stuff, but his dramatic and comedic chops were sublime. Now off the radar because of his own actions (allegedly)

[Karen Vera @detailslater]

@mikemovies Alex Wolff played a huge part making this movie land so hard
