Regarding @DeborahAnnWoll and that heartbreaking interview, a little story. When we were searching for Karen Page for S1 of Daredevil, I watched an avalanche of taped auditions. When I saw hers, I damn near levitated out of my chair.

“‘Cape Fear’ was the worst well-done TV show I’ve ever watched start to finish. No expense was spared to create a true atrocity of a 10-episode season. I couldn’t believe how awful and incoherent it was. It’s stupefying that this show even happened.”
—Bill Simmons, The Ringer

[Paul Deranian @pderanian]

@BillSimmons So true. Like watching a car accident in really slow time. Consistently poor choices by dumb characters and ludicrous plot points

History will remember this as the greatest World Cup campaign by a 39 year old.

When Dire Straits took the stage at Live Aid in '85, most fans had no idea why Sting joined them, but when he started singing the opening lyrics to "Money For Nothing", they realized it was his voice on the radio hit which widely went unnoticed til then 🔥 Goosebumps when Mark Knopfler finally plays that guitar riff and the crowd takes over for the drums.

@cheo_coker Thanks so much, very helpful. Was aware of only some of that. I am sadly two states away from a 70mm Imax theater.

@cheo_coker @_dawnmontgomery can you expand on your thoughts more as it relates to Odyssey, Nolan and "raise the bar" translating to Black Panther 3?

Jude Bellingham reflects on his clash with Lionel Messi during England’s World Cup semi-final defeat to Argentina.

🗣️ “Football is played with emotion, and in a World Cup semi-final I let that emotion get the better of me. I tried to provoke Messi because I thought it might distract him. Looking back now… it was probably the worst decision I made all night.”

“We were leading 1-0 and I felt we had control. After our exchange, he didn’t argue back. He didn’t lose his temper. He just looked at me, gave a small nod and walked away. At the time I didn’t think much of it.”

“But a few minutes later, I realised exactly what that nod meant.”

“It was like he had accepted the challenge. Suddenly every time he touched the ball, something dangerous happened. He stopped forcing things, started controlling the tempo and made the entire game revolve around him. Then came the two assists that completely changed the match.”

“I’ll never forget the moment Argentina scored their second goal. I looked over at Messi and remembered that nod. That’s when it hit me. I just stood there thinking, ‘It’s over… he’s done it again.’”

“I’ve faced great players before, but I’ve never seen anyone respond to pressure like that. Most players react with anger when you provoke them. Messi reacts with football. That’s what makes him so frightening.”

“I regret trying to get into his head because all I did was bring out the very best version of him. We had one foot in the World Cup final, and he ripped that dream away with two moments of pure genius.”

“That nod wasn’t frustrationit was confidence. Looking back now, I think Messi already knew something the rest of us didn’t. Once he reached that level, deep down I knew England were in serious trouble.”
