And I was telling myself, today, that I should map out all the people that constitute my cultural universe, and check how many of them are alive.

And compare then with others of their demographic. What would you do if it seemed that you liking them caused them to die earlier?
Oh, don't worry; I can't be bothered to dignify Hollywood with emotional responses.
Superman & Lois Season 4 Gets Disappointing Release Update
Superman & Lois may not be back on the small screen for a while due to extenuating circumstances.

In case I haven't mentioned it enough, Ocean's 11 is one of my favorite movies, and this video that randomly popped up via my YT algorithm somehow nails why I love it so much: the characters.
From the comments: "editing is only really noticeable when it's awful. When it's great, you're too caught up in the enjoyment to understand how you're being moved by the craftsmanship."

RIP. He probably figured best to cash it in now before having to witness D.G. Green massacre his work. Well, I won’t rush to judgment but yeah. One like that is tough to top regardless.

Zachary Levi urges audience to avoid 'garbage' produced by Hollywood
Zachary Levi, star of 'Shazam 2,' slams the 'garbage' coming out of Hollywood: 'We have to actively not choose the garbage.'
This has been a big year for flops. Shazam 2, Dungeons and Dragons, The Flash, 65, Magic Mike's Last Dance, Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, The Covenant, Renfield, Beau is Afraid, Big George Foreman, and Indiana Jones 5 all went down like lead balloons. Mission Impossible looks like it could be next as it's been struck below the waterline by an enemy submarmeme in the form of Barbenheimer, and Blue Beetle has "$50-100 million right down the drain" written all over it.But Zachy Boy, people are doing that. That's why they didn't go see Shazam 2.Zachary Levi urges audience to avoid 'garbage' produced by Hollywood

I swear, society's getting dumber.
12 years ago, Once Upon a Time began to air, and people liked the take on Snow and Charming there - both capable characters that complemented each other.
11 years ago, Snow White and the Huntsman came out, and nobody gave a shit that Snow was a warrior princess.
Now, Snow White is doing the same thing, and suddenly, it's an issue. And if you're wondering whether I'm referring to Disney or the anti-woke brigade, the answer is yes.
