Oppenheimer Hits Theaters This Friday

While we can still post about this – Oppenheimer hits theaters in the US and UK this Friday, July 21! Tim has a small role as Senator Pastore in the film, which was written and directed by Christopher Nolan and stars Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., and Florence Pugh.

The film was shot in IMAX, and the best way to see it would be at a theater capable of showing the IMAX 70mm version. You can find a list of those in this article, which also explains the different film formats. The regular version of the film will also be playing in theaters across the country, so you can still check it out there if you don’t live close enough to an IMAX location.

This is one of the most highly-anticipated films of the year, and we’re thrilled that Tim got to be a part of it!

Edited to add: international release dates include July 19 for France, July 20 for Germany and Denmark, and July 21 for Norway and Sweden.

Happy 60th Birthday, Tim!

Happy Birthday, Tim!!

It’s hard to believe an entire decade has passed since the first time Ara and I worked on a birthday project together for Tim, but here we are! Back in 2013, Ara put together a birthday book of greetings from around the world for Tim’s 50th and gave it to him in person in NYC just before his birthday, and it was a huge hit! That’s also the first time she and I worked together on something for Tim, and it wasn’t long after that we debuted this very website!

I’ve been posting lots of birthday collages and greetings for Tim on Instagram. Most of it is included on the feed itself, but anything in the stories was also added to a highlight collection so it can be viewed for longer than 24 hours. Check it out!

Tim, I hope you’ve had an amazing 60th birthday, and that you have a great year ahead and many, many more to come! Much love! ❤️

Here are a few of the collages I posted to IG:

Law & Order 22×17 Reaction Post

Here’s the reaction post for Tim’s episode of Law & Order – editing this now that I’ve had a chance to watch. What a great role! It was wonderful to see Tim get so much screen time in this one. I was hoping we’d see quite a bit of him since he was the top-billed guest star, and the episode didn’t disappoint!

So what did you think? Let us know in the comments, as usual!

FabTV Interview with Tim

FabTV interviewed Tim last week for the “Honor: In Their Words” event at the Hollywood Legion Theater, and they’ve posted the interview on YouTube! Tim talks more about the event itself, which commemorates the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, and about growing up during that time and seeing the effects it had on those who served.

Check it out here!

Honor: In Their Words Event Photos

As promised on Instagram, here are the photos from the “Honor: In Their Words” event Tim did yesterday at the Hollywood Legion Theater for WordTheatre. (Click the link above or the photo below to see the rest!)

The event, which honored military veterans on the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, featured actors reading stories written by veterans. Tim read “Thanksgiving Special” from In Pharoah’s Army: Memories of the Lost War by Tobias Wolff, and he was joined by the likes of Sharon Stone, Bill Pullman, Kathy Baker, Griffin Dunne, and Jason George.

If you’re a paid member of WordTheatre, they should be posting a video of this event soon! In the meantime, check out the great photos in the gallery.

Tim on Law & Order, More WordTheatre

Great news – Tim will be guest-starring on an upcoming episode of Law & Order! He’ll play Judge Ephraim Raymer in the episode entitled “Bias,” which will air on Thursday, March 30, 2023 at 8pm eastern on NBC. At this time, we don’t have any other info or promo stills, but I’ll update when we do! (Thanks to J for the airdate info!)

Also, this is last-minute, and the event is already sold out, but Tim will be doing another WordTheatre reading on Saturday, March 18. He’ll be part of the “Honor: In Their Words” event, in which the cast of actors reads stories written by military veterans. The event starts at 7:30pm Pacific at the Hollywood Legion Theater in Hollywood. Even though you can no longer get tickets, they’ll be recording and posting the event for WordTheatre paid members!

Story Performance for WordTheatre

Great news for those in the SoCal area – Tim will be doing a story reading for WordTheatre at William Turner’s Gallery in Santa Monica on Saturday, January 28! The readings start at 7:00pm, although the event itself starts with drinks and book signings at 6pm and a Q&A with the authors at 6:30.

Tim will be performing “Ghost Stories” by Peter Orner, and there will also be a performance by Kate Burton of “Tiny Meaningless Things” by Marisa Silver.

Anyone who makes a donation of $100 will also get to have dinner with the authors and actors right after the performances!

Check out WordTheatre’s post about the event for more information and for a link to purchase tickets. If any of you are able to go, let us know how it was!

1923 1×03 Reaction Post

And there you have it. Tim’s final episode of 1923 was released on New Year’s Day. Maybe not the outcome you were hoping to see to start your 2023, but I still loved getting to see him back for something new and wonderfully cinematic, no matter how brief his time there! (Yes, I knew – and you did, too, if you’ve been paying attention! 👀)

So what did you think of this one? Are you enjoying the series so far – other than this particular outcome? Let us know in the comments!

1923 1×02 Reaction Post

So after saying there would be no new episode of 1923 this week, Paramount surprised us and posted one anyway! Needless to say, I was definitely caught off-guard by this, but no complaints here! This does mean that the schedule has moved up a week though (and most of the listings online still have the old schedule where there wasn’t a new ep this week), so Tim’s last episode will be next Sunday, January 1, 2023.

What did you think of this one? Let us know in the comments below!

As someone who got into the game, Red Dead Redemption 2, earlier this year and became heavily addicted to it, I’m loving the wild west vibe. RDR2 takes place in 1899, and even then they were talking about how outlaws were a dying breed and wouldn’t be tolerated much longer. Yet in 1923, we see that not all of those old habits have vanished from the frontier quite yet. They’re still taking the law into their own hands in some cases, doling out their own brand of frontier justice (as happens often in the game). And since I’ve gotten very into taming wild horses and bonding with them in the game, I also loved the discussion about how horse loyalty may save someone from swinging. (You’ll get that when you watch this episode!)

1923 1×01 Reaction Post

So now that the premiere episode of 1923 has been out for a couple of days, I wanted to put up the reaction post. Have you been able to watch yet? What did you think of the latest series in the Yellowstone franchise? According to Deadline, the premiere set a record as Paramount Plus’s most watched US premiere ever, by quite a wide margin!

We only got one scene with Tim in this one, but it was a great introduction to his character, Bob Strafford. (And let’s face it, having that one scene be opposite Harrison Ford was a major bonus!) This particular interaction between Bob and Ford’s Jacob Dutton definitely got a chuckle out of me – loved it! And also, can we talk about that epic mustache?! Definitely suits him more now than the Burke-stache from years ago.

So what did you think? Let us know in the comments below! Screencaps are coming soon; Ara is on holiday and can’t do them at the moment, and hers are miles better than mine – definitely worth the wait! And be sure to check out the 1923: What to Expect video for more glimpses of Bob Strafford.
