Final cut – the ability to have the final say on how a film is edited – is very rare, and typically only granted to highly respected directors like James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino, and the Coen Brothers.

Even if historical TV shows aren’t always 100% factually correct, they can still be incredibly insightful, especially when they help us understand what life was like in the past or why people acted the way they did.

Though it’s a new show, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds actually takes place before the events of the original Star Trek, focusing on the adventures of the Enterprise crew before Captain Kirk commanded the ship. Fans will recognize characters like Spock, who is now played by Ethan Peck. Peck does an excellent job stepping into a role famously portrayed by Leonard Nimoy, and he understands the weight of that legacy – Nimoy was a key part of the very first Star Trek pilot.

They’re plying their trade through direct messages, emails, and cloned profiles-dastardly clever, if you ask me. Once they’ve got a chap’s ear, they spin a yarn about urgent account recovery, all to pilfer those precious seed phrases.
