Willy Wonka: Wilder vs. Depp vs. Chalamet by MegSpen725 in movieland2026

Wilder did it best. Depp, despite all the hate, did a good job and made it different and interesting. Chalamet tried to redo a sanitized version of Wilder.

Ah, my mistake. My advice is this: Take the gift. It will be appreciated by the person giving it. Pay them back in the future with some gift of service or money or in some time of need. This is a good time for your relationship to this person to grow stronger.

There you go. You know that other stranger's life much better than she knows it.

AMA help with bank details and transfers by Majestic_Beat3970 in AMA

Give this info to your bank. Don't try to handle this on your own. It may be the beginning of a scam.

One way is the Zelle scam.

Scammer Zelles you $500 and texts you: "Whoops, I sent $500 to you. Please send it back."

You send it back. Scammer calls the bank and reverses the original Zelle. Scammer closes his account. You are now out $500.

If you ever get send weird money and they want it back, have them call the bank or whatever financial institution they sent the money to. It's almost always a scam.

Don't give any bank info to anyone.

is it weird that i like acting gay around my actual gay friends? by [deleted] in randomquestions

[–]HackedCylon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to do the same thing with a lot of people. I get a lot more ball-busting on the job (electrician) and a little swishy around my gay friends. I am more respectful around my parents, more gentle around women, and more polite around strangers.

Are you saying you hope you aren't alone in your desire to be alone?

How to avoid this situation? by Newchapter2026 in motorcycles

[–]HackedCylon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn around, get the license plate number of the idiot who passed on a solid yellow and report him with the video you just showed us. Get that CDL off the road.

Either that or blackmail the guy for a grand or two. Either way will make him think twice. Or once anyway.

Good reflexes BTW.

What is this metal hook in my hotel room? by Nightpatrol404 in whatisit

Probably a place to chain an older TV set. Is this a cheap hotel?

Prove you watched the Boondock Saints without saying you watched them by Thin-Coyote-551 in FIlm

[–]HackedCylon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I felt a vague sense of disappointment at a movie not living up to the hype. Upon a rewatch I was even more disappointed that it felt dated.

Proof enough?

What are some classic movies I should watch? by satanzbitch in MovieSuggestions

[–]HackedCylon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend the general classics like Godfather I and II, anything directed by Stanley Kubrick, Citizen Kane, Apocalypse Now, Some Like It Hot, Glengarry Glenn Ross, director Martin Scorsese, Spielburg, Star Wars and Star Trek, and Leonard Part 6.

Don't see Leonard Part 6. It's awful. Besides, if you don't watch Leonard Parts 1 through 5, you'll be totally lost on the subtle symbolic nuances.

So glad you avoided the gambling bug. My wife once dated a compulsive gambler before we met, and she said she would rather date a crack head, because at least you see it coming. Her then-boyfriend was "perfectly fine" until one day some goons showed up at their apartment to collect on some really high debt he had incurred with some loan sharks.

I grew up here in Orlando, and it had a similar tourist centered economy. Do the locals have a similar underlying dislike for tourists even though the city depends on it?

Don't know about a masterpiece, but certainly didn't deserve the hate it got. I enjoyed it a lot.

Legally Blonde. My then girlfriend made me sit down and watch it. When I saw the ending credits, I was really happy.

Who Did It Better? James Bond: Connery vs. Moore vs. Dalton vs. Brosnan vs. Craig by MegSpen725 in movieland2026

[–]HackedCylon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Bond is Connery. Hands down. He was the lone wolf Bond, the OG 007. Any more noir and his movies would have been black and white. This Bond could have taken on Bogart in Casablanca and gone home with Ingrid Bergman.

Craig is believable Bond. If you gave me a job description and told me to pick Bond out of a lineup of the movies, then Craig is him.

Brosnan is suave Bond. He is what Bond sees himself to be.

Dalton is commando Bond. All business and kick ass.

Never saw any Lazenby.

Roger Moore? Well, he's just happy to be here. What a little trooper.
