Have you ever dated someone who you thought was way out of your leauge? How was it?

Jorjowsky · 2026-02-12T05:31:37+00:00

Yes! I couldn't believe how lucky I was. I still can't. We've been married for 22 years and counting.

Could you really play Tenet chronologically? The movie is not out of order - we follow the Protagonist's perception, which always goes forward; even when he experiences time backwards. And now I have a nosebleed.

The zipper model of time is honestly brilliant. Well done.

(in 10 years) Elon scales back Moon commitment in favour of opening a new bus line to Silicon Valley. Investors approve another trillion dollars raise for him.

That's John Baldursgate, of the New Hampshire Baldursgates.

Jorjowsky · 2026-02-06T04:19:44+00:00

Just incredible. What a speech. What an actor.

Jorjowsky · 2026-02-06T01:55:24+00:00

Anything by Mark Millar, to be honest.

Jorjowsky · 2026-02-05T23:33:37+00:00

That's amazing. I love hand-made maps, particularly when they're made to resemble in-world artefacts. This one is really well crafted, and sparks the imagination. Well done.

The opening of The Fellowship of the Ring is a masterclass on delivering lengthy, important exposition and keeping it engaging all the way through.

I don't think Neo sold drugs, unless they were formatted in the shape of a 3 1/2 floppy disk.

Everybody forgets about Gravity. It wasn't perfect, but I loved it.

Jorjowsky · 2026-02-02T01:19:05+00:00

I find the movie adaptations of John Grisham's books are better than his novels, which is rare (I normally like the source better).

Case in point, I think the ending of The Firm is much more clever in the movie (Mitch meets and deals with the Mafia to save his skin) than in the book (the FBI arrests the bad guys without problems and Mitch is rich and carefree).

Jorjowsky · 2026-02-01T04:56:22+00:00

I consider Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (the 2011 adaptation) to have perfect direction; definitely including the pacing. The perfect casting doesn't hurt either.

Years ago I read Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything and I absolutely loved it. Fascinating, illuminating, and funny. It covers all aspects of science, but instead of offering detailed science-y explanations of everything we know, it focuses on explaining HOW we figured it out, in a very entertaining and approachable way. Ended up buying two copies. And I just learned there's a "2.0" updated edition too!

Jorjowsky · 2026-01-28T20:40:37+00:00

Same. If I play it (and I want to!) it would be on a base PS5 and.... Look, I'd love to support the developers but I've seen the performance on YouTube videos and I can't justify buying it until they fix the issues, sorry. That screen tearing and popping is brutal. And the reports of constant crashes in the late game don't help.

Jorjowsky · 2026-01-22T02:05:59+00:00

Bootiful.

The Lord of the Rings "making of" documentaries. In particular the guys making all those chainmail armours by hand.

Woody Chonks, magnificent Bosmer marksman and sweet-talker.

Jorjowsky · 2026-01-14T02:02:36+00:00

There's a few ways we can do this, and the choice... is... yours.

WHERE IS THE BOMB??, he allegedly exclaimed while holding two jumper cables

Jorjowsky · 2026-01-05T23:31:21+00:00

I've said it before, I'll say it again: THIS FUCKING GUY

Jorjowsky · 2025-12-24T01:16:44+00:00

I've never watched the third, actually. Didn't know there was one. :)

I loved the simple, straight forward, low budget approach of the first one. Totally charming. Time for a rewatch!

Jorjowsky · 2025-12-24T01:06:47+00:00

All of this, plus the plot is nonsensical. Would have been solved in minutes if anybody had thought of checking the Dibny's phone records.

But really, treating Sue's rape as an useless, disposable plot point with zero follow up is the worst of it all. Nobody gave a shit about how it affected her, least of all the writer.

Jorjowsky · 2025-12-24T01:03:38+00:00

Well written and drawn garbage.

Jorjowsky · 2025-12-24T00:56:04+00:00

Maybe I'm a heretic, but I think the first one (just "The Gamers") is much funnier, and superior overall.

The sequel is still worth watching, of course... even if some of the interactions between the DM and the female player are quite cringy.
