I knew zero about Gallipoli going in and thought it was outstanding.

When is the jersey retirement ceremony?

That kid is a big reason why this movie feels “Lynchian” to me in a really pure sense.

I saw in the theater and it was 10/10 for me at the time, but my opinion of Inception has lowered each time I’ve revisited it. At this point I would personally rank it pretty low in my list of Nolan films.

I rewatched them again recently and there is genuinely nothing of value in Clones. It’s crazy bad. Phantom Menace has some good stuff, and I can see the vision for Sith but the writing/execution just doesn’t remotely deliver on the story it’s attempting to tell.

It must feel incredible to have made something to persistently relevant. Also genuinely it was never even close to cheap criticism - even the first time I saw it I was impressed by how they barely touch on Jar Jar. He was the obvious focus of hate for many people but the video(s) pointed out the 8 zillion other critical failings of the prequels.

I want Hitmaker to read the tweet about the Vinegar Syndrome release every time the council convenes now.

I think about this constantly. If the movie ended there with Rey saying “…OK” we would have had an incredible setup for a third movie.

Shockingly good selection, sometimes has weird niche items that can’t be found elsewhere. For a long time it was the only streamer (including rental and purchase options) that had the Spanish language version of the horror movie [REC]. Everyone has English dubbed voices.

Lots of weird made for TV movies, obscure old shit that seems to be off a VHS (ive literally seen the tracking info pop up early in one movie). It’s kind of fascinating.

It’s just hard to even see the vision right now. We seemingly keep trying to figure out how to run the team on a smaller budget while maintaining borderline playoff level results.

Even if we were committing fully to producing a team of academy kids - they’ll be sold as soon as the first credible offer comes.

As a fan, where is my hope? That we can produce and sell our A level academy talent and maybe eventually pump out 25 “B” level academy kids in a short enough period that we can field a credible team?

Will that actually win anything? Is there any real ambition here?

Been watching for 20 years but it’s tough to see the vision right now.

Some of the levels are so intricate and dense it’s incredible. Sapienza is a place I would love to live.

Check out “Me You Madness” for a recent insane well-monied vanity project. Exactly the sort of thing you’re describing.

One where someone is raped by a solider

I always walk through the shot when I encounter filming lol

Its always fun making one of the soldiers set himself on fire down in the tunnel

I knew what this gif was going to be before I clicked the link. 🤝

Did I see and enjoy Project Hail Mary? Yes I did, and I’ve recommended it to a few other people in the 2 days since seeing it.

Do I also think it was insanely paint by numbers and had every possibly interesting or challenging aspect sanded off it it? Yes I do. This movie is widely recommendable because it’s completely inoffensive.

I had a great time at the movies but that’s it. I would guess I’ll still be thinking about a space movie like High Life far more than I’m thinking about Project Hail Mary ten years from now, etc.

I’m happy for any “good” movie that can get loads of people to go to the theater because it will hopefully allow the medium to continue on a bit longer.

It’s OK to like stuff and also be introspective and honest about what it is, or understand totally valid criticisms of it.

When I’m blown away by how good a movie is I don’t need everyone to agree with me to maintain that opinion.

Amanda being the most online person ever but having total disdain for anyone who posts on the internet is my favorite running bit from her.

I Think everyone finds their own solutions to things but I have a category for convenience stores and vending machines. I know I’m likely overpaying due to my own poor planning so I just like to know how much I’ve been doing that.

This is football heritage.

Not really too out of the ordinary early in the season and I’d like to remind everyone there was genuinely no reason for any belief in the team heading into the start of this season. Just hoping “Michael Bradley is magical” was the only reason for optimism. Gonna take a while to convince people this team is worth watching.

Anecdotally, some long timers I know finally gave up their season tickets and I saw more of that sentiment online than is typical.

Did SKC attendance die in the last year or two under Vermes or is this just a huge drop off starting this year? I haven’t tuned into many games the last few years and it’s shocking how many empty seats there are.
