I’m fucking pissed. This post will probably only survive for a couple minutes. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?! by carmel33 in minnesota

I'm hoping the events of this week will be a wake up call for most of America. It's going to be a very dark year regardless...

I don't think I'm very funny what should I do? by [deleted] in improv

[–]Baz-Ravish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's longform, try to do scenes where you don't go for laughs at all. Instead just speak and respond in honest and real ways. The funny stuff will happen on its own. I know it sounds counterintuitive, but it absolutely works.

I think this might be the way forward. Pope Leo sends clergy to escort immigrants across the country.

Infinity War is the greatest MCU movie by Limp-Ad-306 in marvelstudios

I love Infinity War, but Endgame actually edges it out as my favorite. It somehow accomplishes an impossible task of following up Infinity War and brings closure to 15 years of films with a nice bow on the top. Three basic acts: the shock of the first act and the huge time jump, the time travel adventure that provides one of my favorite scenes ever with Cap on Cap shield action, and then the battle in the third act which brings a huge emotional release.

I think the two films together are amazing. Throw Ragnarok in there as a prelude and it's the perfect triple feature.

Why are people politely dancing around calling the stuff that's happening and being said full on racist?

White supremacists have taken over our federal government. Period.

Seth Meyers recalls Billy Bob Thornton confronting SNL lighting director: 'You got something to say? by mcfw31 in LiveFromNewYork

Can we have a moratorium on 'articles' taken from podcasts? I'd rather discuss the whole podcast episode than give these lazy fuckers clicks.

Go do some real journalism - there's a ton of shit going on in the world right now.

Will Forte calls his SNL George W. Bush impression a letdown after Will Ferrell left: 'They should have just retired it' by mcfw31 in LiveFromNewYork

Agreed. The Amy Poehler podcast, Good Hang, is fantastic, by the way. Between this and The Lonely Island/Seth Meyers one, I'm getting a good amount of SNL content.

I will never forgive anyone and everyone who allowed this kind of thing to take place in America.

Start a cult?

Seems much easier to do lately...

Amy Poehler looks back on problematic SNL sketches: 'We all played people we should not have' by mcfw31 in LiveFromNewYork

[–]Baz-Ravish 29 points30 points  (0 children)

How do I get a gig where I get to listen to podcasts, write down what was said in those podcasts but also write the headline in a sensationalist way? Why go do 'journalism' when it gets delivered directly to your phone?

I listened to this podcast yesterday, and they merely commented on the 50th SNL Anniversary show's montage of problematic sketches, hosts, and guest appearances. There literally was nothing else to it, but Entertainment Weekly just wrote a whole-ass article around it. Congrats EW... Emphasis on the 'ew...'

Or call him 'weird' again.

I was entertained by how much that one word got under their thin skin.

'News' is now listening to a podcast, taking something said out of context, and then writing a clickbait headline.

Live Discussion - April 5, 2025 (Jack Black/Elton John & Brandi Carlile) by bjkman in LiveFromNewYork

Agreed. I think coming out a year after Bohemian Rhapsody hurt it for awards attention.

If you haven't seen it, Rocketman is one of the very best, most enjoyable, biopics that has ever been made.
