As everyone is talking about Aliens here’s Wallace and Gromit if they’d accidentally gone to LV-426 instead of the moon.

A lot people are asking if I know what day it is today.
Of course I know what day it is today.
May the 4th is Michael Barrymore’s birthday 😎

Some pretty amazing behind the scenes footage from PREDATOR 2, sees DANNY GLOVER having a dance off with a gang of Predators.

I put Wallace and Gromit in Aliens so you could see what would happen if they went to LV-426 instead of the moon. Pretty happy with it to be fair.

It’s hard to convey how playful using #HandTracking to animate characters in #MixedReality is … but reaching that point where the technology disappears in an experience always feels magical 🪄

Remember the joy of a new box of crayons? I do. Mine usually came from Grampa Ilario. He left them in the "grandkids drawer" for me to find. It was a drawer in his desk where he kept the stuff that we could use to paint without touching his expensive art supplies. 😊💙

For over 400 years we’ve been celebrating a thwarted plot to blow up London’s Houses of Parliament but not once have we celebrated a burning terrorist getting kicked in the nuts at Glasgow airport.

The original Michelin Man from 1894.
He was is white because rubber tires are naturally white. It was not until 1912 that carbon chemicals were mixed into the white tires, which turned them black. The change was structural, not aesthetic. By adding carbon, tires became more durable.
Michelin also began reviewing restaurants so that more people would travel further distances in their cars to eat at these restaurants. This, in turn, would wear down their tires faster and force them to buy more.
The star system that Michelin uses goes up to three and is broken down by whether or not it's worth driving to the restaurant:
One star: "A very good restaurant in its category" (Une très bonne table dans sa catégorie)
Two stars: "Excellent cooking, worth a detour" (Table excellente, mérite un détour)
Three stars: "Exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey" (Une des meilleures tables, vaut le voyage).
