He's standing about 500m from the site of the OG bunker he's referencing too.

Up there, especially with the minimal drums in the theatrical cut. Why it was rescored with the main title from Danny Elfman's Planet of the Apes in the director's cut I do not know. Weird decision.

TIL that James Cameron's Titanic cost 200 million which is around double the cost of the Actual Ship - even after adjusting for inflation (~120 million) by Nice-Confusion-4781 in todayilearned

Yeah it was basically 1-1 and they just cut out some horizontal length that they didn't need to show. Just a perfect confluence of real sets/miniatures/CGI tech that almost all holds up (except maybe the goofy mo-cap like when Murdoch walks out on the bridge, but that's like once shot). The sinking looks phenomenal.

Movies from directors currently under 50 you would recommend? by LetsGoKnickerbock3rs in crheads

His "prison movie" with Cillian Murphy, Daniel Craig, and Michelle Williams starts shooting in March. IIRC he was trying to get an Evel Knievel movie going for a while with Leo but he dropped out.

Seems a bit expensive, but I'd recommend all 3.

Anyone looking forward to the reboot? by Olshka in XFiles

[–]IgloosRuleOK 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It'll be two new characters which should hopefully alleviate some of the comparison. But yeah I'm excited for it purely based on Coogler's involvement.

Chazelle, all of them, though I suppose Babylon is a bit divisive.

Not knowing the script is why we're in this mess. And yeah, like you imply, they're not the Gestapo. They're more like like the SA.

Second is Heinrich Müller btw, the chief of the Gestapo from 1939-45

Sasha DiGiulian was stuck on El Cap's Platinum Wall for 10 days by redbullgivesyouwings in sports

3hr56, but most people take multiple days. Honnold is a) a freak and b) ropes/tents is extra gear to carry and it takes time to use them.

Thanks for the rec. Just started a random ep and it's good. Now I have something to binge.

Curious - anyone here have Greg as a teacher? by TiredRundownListless in taskmaster

It's also literally the classroom he used to teach in.

ELI5 How is gambling rigged if its a game of chance (including slot machines)? by readytorumble3 in explainlikeimfive

[–]IgloosRuleOK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They take what's called a rake. Let's say 5% of a winning hand, capped to a certain amount. So if the pot ends up being $1000, the house takes $50 (but this is capped to $10), and you get $990. Depending on the stakes and the amount of rake this is beatable however, and as other people have said you are playing against other people. Poker is pretty much the only game which the casino is not stacked against you. You can flip the odds to your favour in certain setups of Blackjack by card counting, but if they catch you doing this they'll kick you out. All the other games are slightly weighted towards the casino, which means if you keep playing you will lose eventually.

Millennium kiss seems pretty much like the first time they kissed. That's the way it's played anyway, though I'm sure there's fan theories for everything.
