  • Not much to it outside of trying to convey “perfect by RPG standards, tropes and parameters (probably)”, but failed to “hit” me in any way.

    Watching it, I was expecting to see something akin to a Franchise movie, where you may miss a bit or two if you’re not in on all the lore. But I was also expecting true entertainment with striking visuals, gripping storytelling, stuff like that

    Imagine watching a spy movie. 20% in you have adversarial hierarchy, 30% in the car chase, 66% in the romantic pause, 80% in the unexpected traitor, 95% in the final hand-to-hand fight to avert the end of the universe or whatever… And it’s boring, but everybody around you is telling you it was so great because it’s got it all, the car chase the traitor the, the.

    Doesn’t make a good movie.















  • From The Pink News

    Sir Ian McKellen will open a brand new production of the Shakespeare classic Twelfth Night featuring all trans and non-binary performers.

    The Lord of the Rings star, 86, will join in on the one-night only rehearsed reading by the theatre group Trans What You Will in July.

    Staged at London’s The Space Theatre, the reading will be broadcast globally via a livestream. All profits are going to the UK-based trans charity, Not A Phase.

    The performance will take one of Shakespeare’s most well known and gender-fluid works and reimagine it through a trans lens.

    “With mistaken identities, cross-dressing, and declarations of love across shifting gender roles, Twelfth Night has long explored the complexity of identity,” a press release reads.

    “This production makes that queerness explicit, reclaiming the story through the lived experiences of trans and nonbinary artists.”

    Phoebe Kemp, who is directing, has said: “Twelfth Night already toys with gender and performance, it feels like Shakespeare wrote it for us. This reading is about joy, solidarity and showing what’s possible when trans and nonbinary artists are at the centre of the story.”

    The performance, which will take place ahead of London Trans+ Pride, has also been billed as “a joyful act of protest and pleasure activism, celebrating gender diversity at a time when trans representation remains under threat.:

    Twelfth Night – A Rehearsed Reading by Trans What You Will is set to take place on 25 July 2025 at The Space Theatre. Tickets to attend in person are available here. Tickets for the livestream are available here. Pay-what-you-can tickets are available.






  • On est bien ici (quand je suis pas au bureau, ce qui est dans pas longtemps)

    Ça fait 7 ans ; ça change mais c’est raisonnable, pour un méga-centre commercial à la con, tu as aussi beaucoup de mise en valeur, de rénovations etc

    Bon là maintenant que l’ancien hôpital militaire est devenu un 4Seasons, ils virent la cité universitaire derrière pour faire un …golf. Et les expropriations dans tout le quartier (Océan) vont bon train, ça va gentrifier sa mère un des derniers quartiers du centre vraiment pas chers
