I think that was the one where Godzilla and Gamera teamed up at the end.

Could not screenshot the whole tweet, he was right beneath.

Nope.

He is world #2 right now in classical. If he keeps this up and does well in the Chess World Cup, FIDE Grand Swiss, or FIDE Circuit then he has an actual chance of winning the Candidates and possibly beating Ding to win the Championship.

Yeah I wouldn't bet on Hikaru, if he gets lucky maybe. Nepo or Fabi probably have a better chance.

If he hadn’t blundered away the draw in that last round game in the Candidates, I think he would be World Champion now…
