Based on...what, exactly? Because neither skater has shown even a skerrick of proof that they could possibly displace Jason for the Olympic spot. Neither even remotely come close to his body of work or his scores when he is on. And when the heat is on on the big stage and you need a performer...

Jason's new logo reminds me a lot of Gabriel Bortoleto's, with the butterfly wings. For merch shipping from the US it's actually reasonably priced. I quite like the t-shirt. Might have to acquire one.

I'm sure that USFS will take Max's extremely unique circumstances into account if he proves to be the one in the best form going into selection for the third spot.

I trust Rohene to do a proper tribute to Jason's earlier program while still renovating to match his current skill. That step sequence is stunning. It is an evolution. I always remember that Rohene's original plan was for Jason to give Riverdance two seasons. Well, here is its second, just a...

My cheeks are actually hurting from the smile. I have to smile. I don't want to think about why this choice is so perfect. But god, if this is the last one, what a special last one. That step sequence is the perfect blend of nostalgia for that kid with a ponytail while showing off the...

That's not what the ABC in Australia are reporting: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07-12/details-of-the-first-report-on-the-deadly-air-india-crash/105524710 When I saw the difference in seniority and experience between the captain and first officer, and the fact that the captain is an...

Okay, I've finally gone and seen F1. The entire time I tried to remind myself, "This movie is not for me. It is not for someone who has watched F1 nearly her whole life. It is not for me." warning: LONG. I did also pick up on the "easter eggs", see some below: It was the story that...

F1 movie premiere in New York this morning. Fifteen of the twenty drivers were in attendance, thirteen of them having come down from Montreal on a special chartered Qatar Airways plane (F1 sponsor). George and Lewis were also there but not in the group picture. Excuse me while I groan over...

This is going to be an interesting investigation. Footage on social media basically shows the plane stalling out and slowly descending into the crash - no wild movements, no obvious smoke or failures. But the flaps are all in the wrong configuration and the gear is still down. It's the first...

A lot of people worried How to Train Your Dragon will be a shot-for-shot remake and the trailer I've seen does nothing to assuage that fear.

The issue with the Disney remakes is that they learned the wrong lesson from Cinderella. Cinderella did well because it corrected a few of the plot holes, threw in a touch of modern humour, but kept the same story at its heart. Every other remake since seems to have completely missed this...

I would say Chen getting 91 PCS for a program in which he simply skated back and forth until the quads were complete was a very inadequate tradeoff...for everyone else.

The F1 drivers were given a special screening in Monaco this week. Reading between the lines of the carefully PR'd responses afterwards, they don't think much of the story. Understandably. A few hints at who got cameos dropped, but nothing really substantial. I wonder if it was weird for them...

We can sit in the club together then, because I also thought his relationship with Penny was so much better in every way. Probably part of it is the change in society as well, but the fact that Mav and Penny were the same or similar age, that their relationship was more mature, was such a nice...

Ha! I am going to go see it for the visuals on the big screen - I expect that, like Top Gun, those will look spectacular - and to see how many real life driver cameos there are, who got a speaking role, and who tried to hide from the cameras. My feeling is that this movie is going to suffer a...
