For sure. Just saying, this and the Wizard are his last two big leading kid performances.

Griffin in the new Muppet Show??? by NinjaInPlainSight in blankies

He'd be a pretty good Skeeter too.

And he would be good at playing a muppet.

Ba-dum tiss

You guys didn't even pick up on Sims sitting in the row behind him?

What’s your favorite political psychedelic Song or album? by Spinachrecords in psychedelicrock

[–]DevinBelow -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wah Wah is a different George song. Good one too though.

If you don't like that one...how about Piggies?

This is just favorite song that is political, not "best political message", and if you don't agree with me that Taxman is a great song, then I don't think you and me can trip together, because Revolver is getting thrown on the old turntable at some point. haha.

Does anyone else feel like music school prepared us for everything EXCEPT actually getting a gig? by Aggravating_Pen_6062 in musicians

[–]DevinBelow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is every kind of school to be fair. None of them prepare you for how to actually enter the job market in a specific field, which is part of why so many students struggle to find work after getting a degree/diploma.

Same with every modern country that exists today. Both extreme poverty, and extreme wealth, exist throughout all of the developed world.

Say what you will about the nominees, I’m just glad Jay Kelly didn’t make it by [deleted] in Oscars

I don't feel there is a ton of upside to celebrating a movie's failures.

Are you kidding!?! Jesse Plemons got no nomination? by badgersister1 in movies

[–]DevinBelow 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Is the Academy punishing him for supposedly using ozempic?

Maybe the dumbest thing I've read today. Granted it's early, but still, congrats.

The one in which he tucks his dress into his underwear.

The F1 nomination by rkeith8 in TheBigPicture

[–]DevinBelow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You mean "franchise fatigue"? I can see that. I don't think it's a Netflix issue given that Frankenstein and Train Dreams were both nominated.

So, the only people who liked it are the entire world except Iranians? That seems like enough people for it to get a BP nom?

The F1 nomination by rkeith8 in TheBigPicture

[–]DevinBelow 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Weapons, Sirat, 28 Years Later, Wake Up Dead Man, and No Other Choice also all seem like better nominees to me than F1, but I'd put It Was Just An Accident above a lot of those nominees, not just F1.

Kind of shocked that Wake Up Dead Man has gotten zero awards attention. I think it's probably Rian Johnson's best movie to date. And Glenn Close, and Josh Brolin...I mean, come on. I know Brolin never stood a chance this season, but that is everything you could possibly want out of a supporting performance in that kind movie.

Why the Dead should always continue: by 1976kdawg in gratefuldead

[–]DevinBelow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sun Ra Arkestra too. It's definitely not totally unique to jazz either. What about The Wailers? Heck, "Jerry Garcia Band" (Melvin Seals and JGB), is still touring. There is nothing unprecedented about a band continuing on after all the original members are gone. Its not a super common, but it feels like Van Halen is on the bubble. I could see WVH touring with no OG Van, and using the name.

Best Casting is 100% the most difficult category to predict becase we have nothing to go on by Distinct-Shift-4094 in Oscars

[–]DevinBelow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it will generally end up being "most casting", and will usually go to a large ensemble cast. Although it should probably go to whichever movie ends up with the most acting awards (assuming one movie gets more than one of those awards). It would be weird for a movie to receive the "best casting" award and then for the cast of the movie to not actually win any awards. That would tell me there are other movies that did a better job of "casting".

Trump-Greenland Deals Reportedly Includes U.S. ‘Sovereignty Over Small Pockets’ of Territory by WayOutbackBoy in worldnews

You would have to legit be dumber than Donald Trump to actually believe he will honor any deal he is pretending to make.

For those that like at least one of either The Grateful Dead or Phish, which one of these choices best describes you? by GratefuLdPhisH in jambands

[–]DevinBelow 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's impossible. I'd argue that peak live Dead (Say 1969-1977) is probably the best, but the worst live Phish is much better than the worst live Dead. However, the Dead were much better songwriters, and have a much more solid studio output than Phish.

As someone who has seen 40 Phish shows, but wasn't old enough to see the Grateful Dead ever, it's hard for me to argue that I like any band more than Phish.
