Now seems as good a time as any to say I'm going to start posting over on the good place from now on. Occasional tweeting will continue, but I'll be more vocal over there, so give me a follow! I promise to follow back

Game has well and truly gone if that's a red card 😂 #everton

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

A woe-nderful evening spent at the world premiere for #wednesday season 2. Thanks to Netflix for having me!

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

In space, no one can hear you scream. On our planet, though... Time for the European premiere for #AlienEarth!

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Third time's a charm? Let's hope it's... fantastic. #TheFantasticFour

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

@ItsMrProducts I get there's a market for fun interviews - quizzes and the like - at junkets that'll get eyes on them for obvious reasons, but seeing someone actively use AI to come up with lazy questions & then admit to doing this? It's not on. And cheers, bud! Hope things are well

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Well, this was infuriating to watch. I'm probably shouting into the void, but there are plenty of journalists - myself included - who'd have jumped at the chance to speak to Pedro and Vanessa, and ask well-researched and/or thoughtful questions. But we lost out to... this.

[𓆩𝙿𝚜𝚢𝚌𝚑𝚘𓆪 @psychxbby]

Imaging getting to interview the Vanessa Kirby and the Pedro Pascal for F4 and using AI to make your questions instead of doing your own research

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

I didn't wake up today and choose violence, but after that clip... Please, do better, fellow journalists. And talent reps/PR teams, maybe consider smaller outlets (not necessarily TR!) for opps like this. They genuinely could positively impact a reporter's career

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Still, TechRadar is a minnow of the entertainment reporting world compared to more popular outlets, or even places like HitsRadio, and it sucks when people - and I cannot emphasise this enough - waste their talent opportunities with shite, computer-generated questions like this

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Fan-tas-tic Foooooouuuurrr! A great time was had at today's UK press junket for #TheFantasticFourFirstSteps

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

@Andrew_Vale31 Can't see that happening. If he somehow stumbles his way into a club in Europe next season, he'll spend his time watching from the bench IMO

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Injuries absolutely killed any momentum he'd built up from that season under Ancelotti & meant we couldn't rely on him like we used to, but I'm still sad to see Calvert-Lewin go. I'll never forget those goals against Palace and Liverpool. All the best for where you go next, DCL

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has said farewell to Everton 👋

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

@robsaunders1 @SonyPicturesUK So I believe! But which one(s)? 🤔😃

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

*Rage virus not included. Thanks to @SonyPicturesUK and Tiny Rebel for the awesome #28YearsLater care package!

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

@ItsMrProducts Same. I was all in on that trippy sci-fi game with Milo Ventimigila - hugely underrated actor - in it until they threw up the #BlackOps7 title. Get the fuck outta heeeeeeeeeere😔

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Everyone after watching the latest #DoctorWho finale:

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

I don't tend to geek out about work stuff these days - I guess it comes with the territory? - but it'll always be highly satisfying to see my review quoted in #Marvel trailers, social media posts, and other marketing materials. Go see #Thunderbolts this weekend, everyone!

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Like its titular team of misfits fighting for their lives, #Thunderbolts battles against the odds to not only be a fantastic Marvel movie, but the MCU's most emotionally impactful film - it almost made me cry twice! - to date. Read more in my review: https://t.co/nFsGyFAnwi

[Tom Power @thomp1987]

Time to find out what the asterisks means! So hyped to be invited to the European premiere for #Thunderbolts by Marvel and Disney
