Testing Creativity Edition

Hello internet stranger,

The Weekly Click is a weekly (shocking, I know) updated list of interesting bits on the internet that I thought I’d share.

Happy clicking!

1. According to a rumor from World of Reel, Christopher Nolan is allegedly in talks to write and direct the next two James Bond movies for EON. The outlet notes the company’s plan is to present a “full reboot” of the franchise, adapting remakes of the Ian Fleming novels in period settings sticking “close to the original source material.” Doing period-piece spy movies is the only way to differentiate James Bond from any modern action spy movie like the Mission Impossible franchise.

2. This Defector headline sums things up: Football Game Played Near Taylor Swift. 

3. The Overview Effect YouTube channel has an interesting video focusing on the scientifically accurate depiction of where a select few sci-fi star systems are in our galaxy. The Dune ones were interesting as I don’t know where they got the stars for those planets from.

4. All 67 episodes of Moonlighting will be available to stream on Hulu starting Oct 10. I have not watched any episodes in ages. I wonder if it still plays?

5. Prince covered Radiohead's “Creep” at the Coachella music festival in 2008. The video was pulled because back in the day, Prince always took stuff down. Guess what? It’s back.

6. Here’s a trip down memory lane. Top 10 Arcades Games Every Year From 1980-1989 (100 Games). It’s a long video, but if you grew up in arcades like I did, I think you’ll enjoy it.

7. Making the argument that classical music is an underrated genre for working out at the gym. 

8. Seth Godin thinks ChatCPT is for you. Godin presents a really interesting "system message" for ChatGPT to give you better results. I found it interesting to see what the specific directions were. Follow his advice and give it a try.

9. Read this fun interview with Austin Kleon on being (not) too weird to be popular. I’m also a fan of his new acronym: SHITT, or “Should I Try That?

10. Nicolas Cage appearing in people’s dreams (and maybe nightmares) is exactly what’s happening in the trailer for Dream Scenario. It’s pretty weird in a good way. Also, here’s Jodie Foster and Kali Reis playing dueling cops in the True Detective: Night Country trailer.

Thanks for reading. If you like this potpourri of internet mélange and want to support it, forward it to someone who might like it, buy my books, or at the very least, let me know what you think.

Be seeing you.
