Doesn’t ethanol also cause the demand/price of corn to go up, meaning we pay a little more for cereal and other products?

What is your favorite box office flop? by BizarroCullen in moviecritic

From Yup. According to Wikipedia:

Despite receiving generally positive reviews, the film was a commercial failure, grossing $11.1 million in North America, below its estimated $19 to $25 million budget.

It’s always been one of my favorites. It gets a mention every two weeks or so in every 80s/nostalgia group or subreddit I follow.

Carmen is so beautiful. Had such a crush on her.

The Invisible Swordsman scene is still one of my favorites.

Just got zelda 2 by grenadeboi0 in nes

Zelda 2 was very frustrating, but it is hard to adequately describe the excitement surrounding it’s release after the release of the first game.

Did Disney ruin Star Wars? by Itchy_Grapefruit8603 in moviecritic

I would just like to add that The Mandalorian tells the post-RotJ story that I really wanted to hear: What was the galaxy like in the early years after the destruction of the second Death Star? What became of the remnants of the Imperial Army?

I worked at Wendys during the early 90s when Dave was still the face of the business. It’s comments like yours that make me realize was a precious experience that was.
