i wrote about Taika Waititi's delusional and embarrassing Instagram post, and how it reflects a deeper problem about the impacts of social media on the entire artistic ecosystem: indiewire.com/criticism/movi…

So many other things to remember and celebrate Sir Patrick Stewart for... but this has to be one of the best line readings in the history of The Simpsons

Shocking. Obscene. Bizarrely contemporary. Horror drama The Devils is back and uncut, 55 years after it was banned – and is the buzziest film in cinemas this Halloween. Here's why audiences are going wild for its revival. Read more: empireonline.com/movies/feat…

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of RSC Honorary Associate Artist, Sir Patrick Stewart; a colossus of both stage and screen and one of the finest classical Shakespearean actors of his generation.

What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admiration for him and his work. My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.

I’m 90% of the way to 60wpm at the moment, also low vision but I don’t use braille. For me it’s regular teeline with bold ruled notebooks and a bold pen. Any time I get disheartened I read this story. If she can do 100, so can I. #teeline #shorthand #journalism
Blind journalism student Kate Pounds has passed her 100wpm NCTJ shorthand exam using a braille code from 1959 combined with Teeline lessons and a specialist note-taking device. She said she hoped to inspire other visually-impaired journalists. More here: bit.ly/3hMlz4p

This might be one of the best films of the year. The BFI London Film Festival is in full swing, and our Reviews Editor John Nugent and Social Media Editor Harry Stainer sit down to discuss the film they think is the standout.

FIRST LOOK: "Black Mirror" creator Charlie Brooker returns with a new Netflix series titled "Blackmere." Rory Kinnear has joined the cast alongside Paddy Considine, Georgina Campbell and Lena Headey. The four-part series, coming in early 2027, is described as an “absurd comedy disguised as an incredibly serious crime thriller.” “Tormented Detective John Blackmere (Considine) leaves the rain-soaked Northern city of Bleakford for London to avenge his partner’s death and catch a ritualistic serial killer before they run out of victims,” the plot description reads. variety.com/2026/tv/global/c…

Apple TV is going to carefully calculate The Studio/Widow’s Bay and Pluribus/Severance release dates while releasing Slow Horses seasons every six months that will continue to take home a writing or directing win every year
