Last year, Kirsten Dunst told Town and Country in refreshingly candid interview that she wants to star in A Minecraft Movie sequel because her kids loved the first one and “she’d like to make a pile of cash” for once. Thanks to being an indie darling, she often works with shoestring budgets that don’t pay a whole lot and almost always lose money. Well, dreams do come true, because unlike Marvel when it was doling out Spider-Man checks, Warner Bros. made with the cheddar and cast Dunst in A Minecraft Movie 2. (Variety)

This year Dome’Loki has read “three excellent books looking at robots, AI, sentience, autonomy, finding meaning, and limitations on the flawed way humanity has programmed robots/AI.” Automatic Noodle by Annalee Newitz, Rose/House by Arkady Martine, and Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky each tell stories of robots or AI apart from humanity in a way. Have you read any of these? (Cannonball Read 18)
