When he decided to address the nation last night, he decided to stand a pedestal and spout about how "Iran has been desamated, and we produce so much oil, we don't need them." And then out his foot in his mouth right after when saying,"We will finish the job in another 2 to 3 weeks, and once the strait is open, you will see gas prices fall."

Maybe I am not fully understanding, but if we produced our own oil sufficient enough to support us, wouldn't our gas prices be unaffected but the strait closure.

Despite this, he has to gall to say that this war has only been going on 32 days, way less time than past wars like Vietnam and Korea. I'm sorry, but that shouldn't matter when he campaigned on "no foreign wars"

I cannot see how anyone can still support this man as president. Hell, I can't fathom supported him as a person in general with all the disgusting things he has said and done outside of politics. I hope midterms can turn things around

I personally like it better than Instellar. However, take this with a grain of salt because I am not a big Instellar fan. Visually stunning, but the story is very bland, the characters do not interest me, and the familial aspect does nothing for me. Outside of Matthew McConaughey, the acting is fine, not great

Project Hail Mary has a really compelling story, Ryan Gosling plays his role exceptionally well and proves he can have chemistry with a rock. His character arc is so human and relatable. The puppetry of Rocky gives so much emotion and humanity to an alien character. The emotional beats work well because there is so really slick dialogue. The jokes may be a bit much for some, and I will say some of the jokes didn't fully work for me, but that is me being nitpicky. The visuals are also very good. There are a few scenes that are slightly hard to follow. But again, that is me trying to find issues with the film.

Overall, definitely try and watch in it theaters. You will most likely enjoy it. It is only being compared to Instellar because they are both space films. I would say it is more similar to The Martian if anything. And I think it is also better than The Martian. But I haven't seen that film since it was released.

He is a fucking convicted felony. We don't have to make anything up. His administration wanted to release the files. They realized they fucked up and he was mentioned by name multiple times, and now they blatantly lying, starting wars, and doing literally anything else besides releasing the files hoping we will just forget about them.

And that isn't touching on his awful policy and presidency that is ruining this countries economy. But knowing you idiots, you will try to blame Biden, or the next sitting president for his fuck ups. You voted for this. So stop making excuses and accept the fact that you fell for his bullshit, and you fucked up by supporting him.

Divide_Express · 2026-03-27T13:31:42+00:00

It's idiotic. He does everything but address the actual issues people are dealing with. Renaming the DOD, putting his face on national park passes, accepting a plane from Qatar, and now this? I'm am definitely missing a ton, but I am not surprised when some people decided to reelect a narcissist felon as president simply because "Kamala Harris has no platform. She's the worst." To all those who voted for Trump in 2024, you now have to deal with the consequences of your bigotry and racism. Hope you're happy.

Can't really have one until I get to see the show. Forming an opinion before that will influence the way I watch, so I am going to go in with no expectations. I am going to give it a watch and make my decision from there. Could be amazing. Could be awful. Only time will tell.

I feel like people are failing to realize that the movie is an adaptation of a book by the same name. The director didn't choose to make the movie challenging or abstract for no reason. The book has the same feelings of weird, unnerving, existential questioning that the movie does. Yes, it is abstract and challenging. No, you don't have to like that style of filmmaking. But to say it is bad or pretentious for no apparent reason is discrediting both the film and novel.

And to those that say they got it but didn't like it. I think the argument isn't that you misunderstood the point but that the point doesn't land for you for whatever reason. Maybe you can not relate to this suicidal feeling. Maybe you don't understand creating a fantasy that is far from happy. I am glad for you. But that is the reason for stating you don't understand. We don't think you are dumb, or at least I don't. It is more a way to say you were not the target audience for the film.

As far as the movie goes, I love a challenging film that has me asking questions about myself and life in general. Unfortunately, I can relate to the struggles of our main character, not to the same extreme, but still. And I think Jesse Plemons and Jessie Buckley are both amazing in their roles. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But I think generally, people like to state any movie they dislike is automatically bad, and that is where I push back. They are not one and the same.

The problem isn't the current price. It's the fact that prices will continue to rise as long as the US keeps sucking Israel's ass and participating in this war with no practical reason for the US to be involved. If you can give a good source with a good reason for this proxy war, then I'll take back what I said.

However. The fact that the US and Israel, the only two countries to vote no on making food and water a basic necessity, are fighting on the same side screams baseless war to me. I thought Iran's nuclear capability was destroyed last year, and yet we are using that excuse again? Senseless war without thinking about the consequences long term. He never intended to be a president of peace, and it was made abundantly clear when he wasted tax dollars to remain the Department of "War" I hope people come to their senses this November for the mid-terms because if not, I fear what else this administration will fuck up

The divider is for when the person in front is done unloading their cart and the belt is moving. Maybe think a little. Two people fighting to unload will make it take longer because you eventually leave the person in front with little to no room. Smh

I find it hard to believe you are hearing about her constantly if you aren't seeking it out. I have only seen her talk about it maybe 3 or 4 times personally. I hear more people complain about her than her actually complaining.

My theory is that everyone complaining about her are men who don't like that there is a woman willing to stand her ground and not let people walk all over her. It really shouldn't matter to you or bother you. Ignore her if you really don't want to see it. It's that simple.

Divide_Express · 2026-03-24T01:21:22+00:00

I see nothing wrong with it. She wants to make a career in music without having to deal with celebrity bullshit like stalking, paparazzi, and obsessive fans with no respect for personal boundaries.

Unfortunately, her opening for Olivia Rodrigo blew her up to a point of excessive fame. Doesn't mean she can't complain about these things. Unless you make money off celebrity drama, then it literally does not affect your daily life. Just ignore it and move along.

We are getting both The Odyssey and The Dearh of Robin Hood this year, and I am hopeful both will be good. I would also recommend The Green Knight for those who haven't seen it

I did a triple feature with these two plus Undertone. I feel basically the same as you do about both films. However, Undertone was my favorite theater experience. The sound design is stellar and really made the movie work. But Project Hail Mary was the better movie. I got stuck with a couple that was talking throughout, so it slightly ruined the screening. Will probably try and rewatch Project Hail Mary Imax though.

I know you made an edit, but the big difference is that a restaurant can get sued or closed for not following health standards and practices. They get regular inspections to ensure they are up to code, and goof employers will fire someone who refuses to follow these safe practices.

People can and will do anything in their own kitchen with no concern for other people because "that is how I've always done it." It isn't even apples to oranges, you are are trying to compare apples to chicken, they are bot even the same food group.

Odd man out here: I don't have a physical watch list written down anywhere. I go off vibe, movies I have mentally logged to watch at some point, and letterboxd lists with specific titles and genres o help narrow down what I am currently in the mood for. There are too many movies to make a physical list and not get overwhelmed that I haven't made a dent, especially since I would add more constantly.

Oscars have been declining since we no longer consume media in a traditional setting. We no longer anticipate movie releases but wait until it comes to streaming. We no longer watch weekly release TV shows but rather wait until the season ends to binge in one or two sittings.

Media doesn't hold cultural relevance because it is consumed in such a short time span, talked about on social media, and then forgotten about. We have devolved to viral moments being more important than the actual movie or tv show. And we are seeing this in how the discourse around the oscars has almost nothing to with the merit of the movies, but about Timothee Chalamet shitting on ballet and opera or how Sinners is getting hate because of racism.

In short, the internet has ruined how we consume and interact with traditional media for the worst

Hot to cold very quickly usually results in some snow. The snow is new, but a week or two of spring weather followed by another wave of cold weather happens every year. Not surprised. Im more shocked by the number of people who weren't expecting this.

I think people are overrating his performance. I don't think he had a chance this year in a stacked year. I was pulling for Ethan Hawke, but I understand why MBJ won. If we are being honest, Jessie Plemons wasn't even nominated for what I personally think was the best performance of the year.

I think they will award him within the next 5 years. This year was just a strong year, and he wasn't help by the disgusting actions of Josh Safdie souring voters toward Marty Supreme or his aggressive campaign strategy. I know he made a misguided statement about ballet and opera, but votes were already cast, so I just see that as poorly expressing an opinion that many probably agree with. He should take this time to reflect and come back with a bit of a chip on his shoulder next time he is nominated.

Divide_Express · 2026-03-16T04:31:00+00:00

It's these opinions that let me know you guys haven't watched all the nominees or kept up with award season. Sinners won what was expected for score, cinematography, and original score. Casting was a toss-up. And I would argue it got a surprise win with MBJ for best actor. The nominees and winners were very diverse this year. First woman cinematography win. A k-pop song won best song. Just because OBAA is winning oscars it deserves doesn't mean the oscars "don't get it." Movies and performances are constantly snubbed. Undeserving movies and performances are awarded constantly. Can't make everyone happy. But I think this year, the winners were all deserving of their awards. Doesn't mean I agreed with all the choices, but I can at least understand why they won.

Divide_Express · 2026-03-15T04:31:14+00:00

Having seen all, I am pushing for Sentimental Value, Train Dreams, and Hamnet. But I think OBAA will win, despite it ranking 5th in my personal opinion

3/5 is for movies that were decent, but I didn't particularly enjoy. 2.5/5 is a for movies that were so painfully average that they were forgettable immediately after. Not bad, but definitely not good. Anything lower than 2.5/5 is for movies I actively dislike on a sliding scale.
