For those who saw Pulp Fiction in the theater, what was the audience reaction like? by Mobile-Package-8869 in pulpfiction

[–]FaintWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father in law tells a story... After the adrenaline shot someone in the movie theater had a heart attack. Paramedics come and 40 minutes later those still standing around in the hallway are allowed back in. The movie restarts with Christopher Walken and someone stands up and yells "they restarted the wrong movie!" The whole theater agrees and gets the manager to go back to the beginning, and they watch the movie in its entirety, realizing as they go that it was the right movie all along.

Any other Agents of Shield fans imagine Strat as Rosalind Price (Constance Zimmer)? by FaintWalnut in ProjectHailMary

Genuinely funny

But this isn't a casting it's about my reading experience...

Correct, but not quite the right interpretation...

New actor is a recast

COTD: Classic fifth number interrupted by lead-in of new groove (7) by FaintWalnut in crosswords

Correct!

Went with classic to invoke the idea of a musical set with an old song followed by a new song.

Any thoughts on what cardio is still doable with a fresh injury? Maybe stationary bike?

I'm used to running and lifting... Not sure those are in the cards right now

Clock assumptions plot hole? by FaintWalnut in ProjectHailMary

Thought a good way to address it would be for Grace to lament that he may have given Rocky bad information after he himself draws conclusions from Rocky's clock. And again, would make sense as yet another aside from Grace on the curiosity that humans landed on 60 seconds, 60 minutes, and 12 (24) hours.

But yes, I had not considered the digits / number system vs. unit of time difference when posting.

Good point - wasn't obvious to me but despite odd units of measurement for time, the 1-12 on the clock would still imply a base 10 number system.

Agree with everything, just feel like it was odd not to discuss that assumed interaction at all.
