What is happening to Newcastle?

Fantastic Four and Superman were great

Stuck in the middle when I say I prefer this over the CBM movies of the summer

📊 New metric defined: weighted Pass Completion Average (wPCA). It weights Short, Medium, and Long pass completions according to their lengths: wPCA = ((Short*1 + Medium*2 + Long*3) * Cmp * 2 - InCmp) / Att Cmp gets a 2x bonus, assuming returns from Cmp outweigh risks of InCmp.

Something brand new is coming… #SpiderManDay

i can’t get over how awful the streaming era has been to Spike Lee with Da 5 Bloods getting buried on Netflix and now Highest 2 Lowest basically being forgotten about until /a week/ before its horrifically short theatrical window. this is RIDICULOUS.

Physical data becoming publicly available is groundbreaking stuff. Hopefully, FotMob have just started a new wave in public football analysis.

🚨 Newcastle United considering move to sign Samu Aghehowa from FC Porto. 21yo #FCPorto striker high among small number of options to bolster attack. No formal approach or guarantee it happens but Spain int’l liked by #NUFC. W/ Adam Crafton The Athletic | Football nytimes.com/athletic/65247…

Yoane Wissa to Newcastle United ☑️

Fermin has indeed arrived for this game

Dean Huijsen signed for €18.2m, sold for €59.5m. Milos Kerkez signed for €17.9m, sold for €53.4m. Illia Zabarnyi signed for €22.7m, sold for €66m. €120m profit from three defenders all before they turn 23 years old.

I believe it was Ethan Hawke who said that Washington effectively told him, “You don’t want to be the person who is validated by receiving an award, you want to be the guy who validates the award by receiving it.”

The rollout for SING SING is one of the most devastating fumbles I've ever witnessed. A tremendous film (my favorite of last year) and it never got the chance to find the audience it deserved. I'll forever champion this movie.

Here’s one more for your list and if you ask me? Exhibiting Forgiveness is one of the best films of the decade that no one has seen. A true hidden gem.

As Wolves fans sing for Diogo Jota, his Portugal teammates Ruben Dias and Bernardo Silva show their appreciation. Wolves' current number 18, Sasa Kalajdzic, lays the jersey Jota used to wear on the Molineux turf to complete a moving scene 🧡
