“And I don’t mean R-rated to be vulgar. R-rated as a Trojan horse for emotion. I always wonder why studios don’t want to just gamble on something like that.”
An Andor-type film would be great but Reynolds seems like such a generic lib that I don’t think he’d make it compelling.

That I haven’t played. The main three games were just gun slot machines for me.
I probably played the games more than most of the audience and wouldn’t have wasted money on it. The IP is terrible apart from being the first lootbox shooter. Annoying characters, boring plot, a flat setting- it’s probably the video game I’d least want to see made into a film.
I like that it’s electrified public transit that doesn’t rely on car infrastructure. If I can’t bike somewhere or take a train/bus, this to me is less destructive than a ground taxi, helicopter, or plane.
Scientists also took part in another study, peering into how Aquinas died, revealing that a “traumatic brain injury” may be to blame for the philosopher’s death.
In the year 1274, Aquinas set off in good health to attend the Second Council of Lyon, having been invited by Pope Gregory X.
The Dominican priest never arrived, and historical accounts have pointed to either an illness or something more sinister, even assassination.
However, in studying the skull, the cause of death can now be attributed to a specific type of hematoma, when blood collects between the brain and skull, the report found.
“The authors postulate,” the study states, “that Aquinas may have suffered a traumatic brain injury and that his death at age 48 was occasioned by a chronic subdural hematoma.”
Three doctors, Gabriel LeBeau, Abdul-Rahman Alkiswani and Paul Camarata, and theologian Daniel Mauro published these findings in the journal World Neurology.
Witness accounts noted in the study claim the saint had struck his head when a tree had fallen on his way to Naples, Italy. Aquinas stopped to rest after the accident, first in Maenza and also at the Abbey of Fossanova. However, his situation did not improve, and he died a few weeks later.
“Most chronic subdural hematomas (cSDH) are preceded by some form of minor to moderate head injury,” the researchers stipulate.
“A critical reading of the accounts of the last weeks of his life makes a strong case for cSDH: with the classic clinical history of a relatively minor head trauma, a period of lucidity, and then a gradual decline as the hematoma expands over several weeks. Aquinas was not ill prior to the head injury, and the violent collision with the tree on the Via Latina marked the beginning of his demise.”
It’s a shame the article doesn’t go into their forensics research. There’s nothing about what in the skull indicated that.
What if all the sheep banded together and negotiated with the wolves for our fair share of the mutton? Let me eat 1/10th of my leg or there’s no way in hell you can eat the rest of me.
