If I saw this coming out of the Helsinki airport I would feel absurdly complimented.  This is great advertising, in other words. Whoever came up with this should get a little something extra in the next paycheck.

That was a great day.

Cool.

The U-Boat that chases down the Bantu Wind in 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' is the same one from 'Das Boot'.
Both movies were filming in the same area so Spielberg was able to 'borrow' U-Boat 26 for the scene.

It’d never get made, but it ain’t bad.

Umm…so I just discovered today that NICK CAVE (the musician Nick Cave) wrote a script for a sequel to GLADIATOR and I think I like it far more than the first one: https://t.co/DzR5sDhSWp

I don’t think Hollywood could pull it off, honestly.

I mean, seriously: what’s your victory condition, here?

fun fact: Louisa May Alcott may have invented the curse-of-the-mummy trope.

I’d rather live in the universe where this is true, myself.

Two weeks from today (Monday, Nov. 12) we’ll be announcing the dates for my 2019 Strings Attached tour… where every night my band will be accompanied by a FULL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA! Tickets go on sale Nov. 16. More info here: https://t.co/HYlhcCxZPH pic.twitter.com/99NGQpOe10

Of course I’m up for this.  Now all that has to happen is that he tour near me.  But I live near DC, so that’s highly likely.

Goodness gracious.

I think my favorite thing about Disney is that they have a procedure for cleaning up cremated bodies AND a procedure for making sure that people don’t know a cremated body is being cleaned up. https://t.co/IPduSsMRom pic.twitter.com/3J27m6wmyG

Imagine what Disney has to go through when the spirit bound to those cremated ashes possesses a visitor and starts summoning more of its kind in order to finally evoke the Grievous Harvest of Marrow ritual.  They probably have a whole department for that.  And, hey! There’s your next campaign!

I’m afraid to look.

Note that I did not type ‘inaccurate.’

Full orchestral tour?

I’m finalizing the set list for my 2019 orchestral tour this week – which of my songs have you always wanted to hear with full symphony accompaniment?? Please let me know and hashtag it #StringsAttached

Full orchestral tour.

…I need to reset my brain.
