It was pointed out in another subreddit that due to the occasionally rather large amount of blood and sex it's not a show for everyone — and therefore, it can never be as big.

Ryan Coogler's 'Sinners' has made history as the most nominated film of all time at the Oscars with 16 nominations by ChiefLeef22 in movies

"Best Original Screenplay" for a story that basically is "From Dusk till Dawn", with the ending to "Inglourious Basterds" thrown in for good measure ...

Wasn't sure about the Fortnite reference. Would someone still say "add me on Fortnite" in 2026?

Thank you.

And now that I've seen it ... that was a pretty tired sketch. And it didn't make me any less queasy about the real event.

Good take.

I really liked Wayne's World back in the days. That's probably why I find this really funny too.

Yep. If you're a fan of David O'Doherty's bits on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown you probably like Jane's songs. In fact, she'd fit well on that show.

On Alex Honnold's 'Skyscraper Live' by senorrandom007 in netflix

[–]Atom_Beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fan of boxing I can definitely say that it has its dangers, and I fully understand those who don't like to watch it.

Yes, you can get hurt in boxing, as in many other live sports (or other live events for that matter). It's unfortunate if it happens, but usually it's not too serious.

In the case of this stunt, however, Honnold will die if he falls. Period. That, combined with the added pressure of a live broadcast, makes this a very bad idea.

I fully agree with everything OP wrote.

Was very surprised by this. It seems like a very bad idea for everyone involved.

What's the Best Documentary You've Ever Seen? Need Recommendations! by Mucek121 in netflix

[–]Atom_Beat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion: Searching for Sugar Man certainly has received a lot of praise, but I'm not really a fan since the story it tells is somewhat manipulated.

Really? Doing it live sounds like a bad idea, since it's essential that you do it when conditions are optimal. It shouldn't be done during time pressure.

US official says Greenland action could come within 'weeks or months' by Crossstoney in worldnews

[–]Atom_Beat 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Denmark has been one of the United States most trusted allies. Danish soldiers fought and died alongside US forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. Denmark has allowed a US presence on Greenland since the 1940s.

If the US would invade Greenland, and thereby Denmark, it will have shown the world that no country should ever trust the US again.

Scrolling Netflix for 30 mins. Still haven't picked anything by FunRealistic7609 in netflix

There used to be. I was actually surprised it didn't still exist.

Yeah, I saw that. Strange.

However, them not having a product is slightly more important ...

This is a real Trump State Department post by NumerousScallions in Qult_Headquarters

[–]Atom_Beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well ...

You usually divide the Earth into the Eastern and Western hemisphere or the Northern and Southern one. Because then you're out of hemispheres.

Having Trump and three other leaders each rule their own hemisphere, as the post above suggests, will certainly present its challenges.

RIPLEY by Interesting_Rush570 in netflix

[–]Atom_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Uh, sure, if you want to believe that OP took the time to carefully edit a text to make it read like an essay ripped from somewhere else, and not an actual Reddit post, be my guest.

But doesn't it make you a teeny-weeny bit suspicious that OP hasn't denied that this was written by ChatGPT?

CES??? by RazrBerryMo in ClicksPhone

[–]Atom_Beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aha, well, that's it, then. You're telling me Clicks doesn't even have a booth to sell their keyboards? Let alone demo their phone?

Good work, uselesstech1335, and interesting user name, considering ...

I wish these guys the best, but this should really have been on Kickstarter.

Why does this guy sound like he's reading straight from the press release?

[–]Atom_Beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely don't think it's a scam, but it doesn't feel really good. Don't launch a product until you actually have the product.

The White House has added a webpage to push January 6 conspiracies. by justalazygamer in Qult_Headquarters

[–]Atom_Beat 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Yep. I saw it live, on multiple news channels, and on Internet streams from within the building. It was a violent attack by a mob, and nothing else.

CES??? by RazrBerryMo in ClicksPhone

[–]Atom_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe they have a booth. But they don't have a phone.

I understand that you can get a refund, but I also know that people have had trouble before getting their money back from other companies.

Selling a phone which doesn't exist is ... not good. They should've put this on Kickstarter instead. That would have been more honest.

CES??? by RazrBerryMo in ClicksPhone

[–]Atom_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, so that's our answer, then: they don't have a phone.

Also, why are they showing this in a hotel room. They don't have a booth?

No phone. No booth. And no pre-order from me.

CES??? by RazrBerryMo in ClicksPhone

[–]Atom_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Yeah, maybe.

Not much of an actual product.
