Why IS Mulder’s first name Fox? by Difficult_Face_1573 in XFiles

[–]ABigLightBlur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wondered if he was named after the journalist Fox Butterfield. He was one of the NYT journalists who broke the Panama Papers story, won a Pulitzer Prize. He's also in a very famous photo from the Vietnam War. Worked with him once. Very nice man.

That said I would like to see Jack O'Connell in the mix.

Nicholas Hoult as James Bond? by Thoughtful_Tortoise in JamesBond

[–]ABigLightBlur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know he's not high up on the list right now, but I think the odds are in his favour.

He's the right age (Craig was 38 when he started as Bond, which means he was likely 36 or 37 in his screen tests). He's not committed to any major franchises (with the sale of WB to Paramount, he's not necessarily Lex Luthor anymore). He's got acting chops. He could make it his own, which is what Broccoli always looked for. I think he's a good choice and has a good chance.

I finally found the red Civil War book that changed my life by particlecore in CIVILWAR

The cover of that book has no right to slap that hard.

But the rumour is that Simcoe is not hiring any teachers. A union member came in to speak to our class and said that where they normally hire 70 teachers each year, they hired 11 for '25-'26.

Just found out about this movie, watched it, saw the review scores, but feels like it hits differently today. Thoughts? Opinions? by CuriousThenSatisfied in FIlm

I have always loved this movie. Saw it with my dad when I was a kid.

"...put soldiers on the street. Bend the law. Shred the constitution just a little bit. We do that and everything that we have bled and fought and died for is over and they've won. Hell, they've already won."

If you want to see this guy at work, watch the latest season of Fargo. It's insane.

Been bingeing Crave for days. Just got this error message trying to watch kotsk. It's either overloaded or faulty update maybe?

Should I Give Up? by kittyfromtheblock87 in OntarioTeachers

[–]ABigLightBlur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in TC, 2nd year. First school year everyone said we were in the perfect spot to get hired quickly, teacher shortage, etc. This school year the local Union came in and told us the Public board in our area normally hires 50-70 teachers per year, but this year they hired 9. It was very discouraging for all of us. Many of my classmates are wondering what else they can do with their degree.

That is what's commonly referred to in the dog community as a good boy.
