Harrison Ford, hot off the Star Wars reboot, is now totally selling out and doing Indiana Jones 5... oh Harrison, how did it come to this.
Yes. It's the same writer as Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull too. I'm pretty upset about it. I love Indiana Jones.
Yeah, his career is over. I think after SW being so cheesy he's just given up and is going for the money at this point. you can't take him seriously now. It's just sad, had he retired earlier he would have been remembered as a great actor. Now he'll just go down as a joke.
"It's better to burn out than it is to rust..."

It's the saddest thing. He's such a good actor. So many good movies. The guy started out as a carpenter and was building something on set and put into a movie. It's insane.

Twitter just got the rights to broadcast all NFL Thursday games.
http://www.bbc.com/sport/american-football/35970379
So I couldn't care less about the NFL, but what I am wondering is... how is Twitter going to monetize this? I mean, now that I know Twitter shows stuff... I still have no idea how I would go about watching or finding anything! As an interested possible Twitter viewer, as a long term Twitter user, I don't have the first clue how to use their service to consume this content that they are spending a fortune to get the rights to.

Twitter owns Periscope... I imagine they will use the Periscope platform to broadcast it.

Maybe they will recoup what they spent on Periscope!
