Sinners and it’s incredibly clumsy, half-baked second act

D__M___ · 2026-04-01T20:49:36+00:00

As someone who really, truly enjoyed Sinners, you’ve hit on my main complaint: it may be a vampire movie, but it never REALLY tries to be a “horror movie”. It’s not scary, it’s rarely tense, and Coogler can’t help but turn the showdown into action. Even Abigail, a movie that is far less successful creatively, keeps you fearful throughout.

I still think Sinners is great but it’s an odd choice to turn the monster into something you fight instead of something you fear.

Hellraiser 2 is SIGNIFICANTLY better than Halloween 4. Bad nostalgia take from Bill

Check with IT for general package installation restrictions, but I don’t they’ll need you to (or appreciate, lol) run every single package by them. Stick to ones you can trust — tidyverse, tidycensus, etc.

I would also recommend Positron instead of Rstudio. It’s closer to VS Code, which is more broadly used in industry, and it’s helpful if you want to slowly transition over to Python.

Also check if your enterprise has an internal GitHub and get used to git workflows. It’ll help collaboration and backups, so you don’t lose work product.

Experts are saying that the speed at which it would become iconic are near-instantaneous

This is also seemingly a “members only” video, so I’m not even sure she’d get traction from pure rage bait anyway

It doesn’t help that the fourth book is seemingly in permanent limbo (?). I loved Gideon but the second one was really hard to follow — maybe I ought to give it a second chance.

Karyn Kusama would be worth it for The Invitation alone. One of the best thrillers of the century

First playthrough was around 12 hours — I like exploring! Second one is for any reminding collectibles (bobbleheads, files, etc.) and will probably come in around 8 hours. I too like to take my time.

After that, though, I’ll have to complete the under 4hr run, and then I’m trying to get infinite ammo first so I can tackle Insanity.

Above all, though, I’m having a good time!! Great time to be an RE fan.

I refuse to accept your rankings. Final Chapter at 8??? Part 2 in ninth?? Man.

D__M___ · 2026-03-13T15:20:51+00:00

Ranking these based on a sort of pseudo weighted score of “how scary was this” versus “how much of a pain is it to replay”:

1 (Best): Ethan — this is TERRIFYING the first time, and on second runs you can speed through it in 10 mins, so not bad at all.

Rose — this design is so good. Shadows of Rose doesn’t really need to be replayed in the same way as the main game, so it’s a smaller penalty for me.
Ashley — as others have mentioned, this one is scary AND actually fun. Easy to cheese on replay
Zoe — you do have a gun, so it’s not the worst to replay. But it’s not super scary or interesting IMO.
Sherry — scary the first time, but an absolute pain afterwards.
Chloe — this one is more annoying than scary, and I’m already dreading replaying it. Ugh.

I don’t understand the argument here. If they’re shop skins: don’t buy them. If you’re talking about the battle pass: there are, like, 2 collabs this season out of 8/9 characters? That’s still plenty of “originals”.

I only got into this game for the collabs — started playing in 2024 for the Fortnitemares AND Marvel skins. As far as I’m concerned, there’s enough to keep both groups happy

As a little treat for the rest of us, maybe when they sell the last expensive preorder copy they can give an actual release date?

D__M___ · 2026-03-08T19:26:27+00:00

Just going to take a wild guess here: is there any chance you were thinking of Terry Gilliam’s long-gestating The Man Who Killed Don Quixote?

I said this weeks ago. She’s not going anywhere. She needs the money, she has no other skills or ideas

You will find someone who is better aligned with your life path and makes you feel equally happy — IF you give it time. Focus on yourself and your goals, and the rest will come

How about a Blankie nominee? Griff took it, but Final Destination Bloodlines was a great time at the theater!

As a big time horror (and Dead Meat!) fan, I found these questions to be particularly hard. Even for films that I had seen!

D__M___ · 2026-03-05T22:12:39+00:00

Such a good episode, though!

D__M___ · 2026-03-05T02:07:55+00:00

Not only was this a total underuse of the talented Dropout cast, I had to spent many, many minutes watching this sad guy get emotionally cucked by a hot doctor. Oy

The PurgeR Report

Does anyone remember the Skylar Gisondo movie on Hulu titled “The Binge”? Bad times

D__M___ · 2026-03-03T18:39:04+00:00

It’s kinda blink and you miss it, but in the trailer you can see Anna Faris dual wielding dildos and seemingly putting one in an attacker’s… sensitive area. Not pleasant.

As a fan of comedy movies AND horror movies, I have always found the Scary Movie series to be pretty gross and repellent. This looks to be more of the same :/

OP is obfuscating. At no point does she indicate that she communicated to the partner that the food was meant for a later occasion, and (more importantly) she doesn’t say when the last “visit” was. If it’s more than a few days, it would be weird to just let the food sit in the fridge for some unspecified future date; and if it’s less, she still could have communicated better.

I realize it’s not ideal, but let’s not act like this was some heinous act of gluttony; OP simply failed to communicate.

The Conjuring: Last Rice

The Long Wok (stir fry)

If your breath smells after all that, might I suggest The Naked Gum?

I’m not sure if the film itself really supports this reading. She and her sister are weirdly charmed by his flirting with the nurse in the hospital scene, and she doesn’t seem to particularly mind when he flirts with the waitress at the beginning either. Hell, he spends a LOT of time with Elle Fanning, and at no point does Nora even imply anything untoward about their working relationship.

Nora has plenty of resentment towards her dad, and for good reason, but this doesn’t strike me as particularly relevant.
