I finished The Sandman yesterday!

There's an interview with the author about it here:

Neil Gaiman on the Power of Fantasy in our Lives | The New Yorker Radio Hour | WNYC Studios

An adaptation of Gaiman’s series “The Sandman” is now a major hit on Netflix. The author talks with the producer Ngofeen Mputubwele about the series’ success.

I didn't mind that series for a few seasons. I then 'Lost' interest mainly due to life events limiting my TV watching time.

Me, I'm watching Rings of Power Ep 1 & 2 a 2nd time and enjoying the easter eggs.

I finally watched Jurassic World: Dominion.
I believe it is intended to be the last one they make.
I think that would be a good thing.

Having touted Bicycle Thieves recently I've just watched. Unremitting in its portrayal of poverty in post WW2 Italy yet the film is beautiful in its portrayal of working-class Rome - a Rome of anonymous housing estates and crowded buses. The core of the film is the relationship between the father and son: both actors were great in their roles. It had a downbeat ending but with a grain of optimism. The theme of the individual and the crowd was cleverly communicated.

Brief Review of Bicycle Thieves

Did everyone watch the DART impact?

Did everyone watch the DART impact?

I was watching. The resolution of the surface just before impact was awesome.

Yeah, I was thinking about this. I haven't paid much attention. But if I heard right, we were able to 'nudge it into a slightly different course."

Of course, a 'slight difference' here is a massive difference elsewhere as the delta widens farther down its path.
I wonder what impact we just had on the rest of the universe.
Perhaps some enterprising mathematical scientist can see if we've killed another planet somewhere down the line by our test.

I always keep in mind that when I 'see' the sun, I'm not seeing it where it really IS, but where it was 8 minutes and 20 seconds ago when those light rays left it.
(With the moon, it's only where it was 1.3 seconds ago.)
