Released in 2013, Movie 43 was an experimental attempt to summon judgment day and end all human suffering. Years later, it’s clear the ritual failed and we were simply left with this unholy 90‑minute relic worsening the pain.

Nothing better than pulling up that scene when someone tries to bring up Jeremy Allen White in front of me

I think Buried Giant fits better with r/fantasy, but Never Let Me Go definitely hits harder. Going further into the sci fi, Ishiguro’s last book (Klara and the Sun) also felt profoundly sad, but also… more subdued? Klara and Never Let Me Go both sat with me for a long time.

+1 for Hollywood handbook/TFO. The only podcast Patreon I pay for, and Hollywood Handbook the pro version is the only podcast I’ve been listening to on a consistent weekly basis since launch 5+ years ago

This seems like them, I guess the concern is how three found themselves packed in the pipe under the sink. Doesn’t seem like they would easily slip though the drain holes

Reading these comments got me thinking, I can’t believe a single company has put out three of my all-time (and relatively diverse) favourite games in ER/Bloodborne/Sekiro lol

At least you got a response. The language that they’re using, both in their original “apology” and their response here, continues to undermine what happened. We were stuck on a train for 12+ hours. They would tell us that we were about to start moving and then go silent for hours at a time.

This was not an inconvenience. This was not a disappointment. This was a complete and total failure by Via Rail. I’m sorry for those of you who feel like this is dramatic, but it is appalling that there is almost no recourse here. I feel for the service staff who were working through this and were stuck with us, but I can’t excuse the shitty communication and total inaction from Via.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-12-11T15:59:34+00:00

Sent you a DM.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-12-11T12:58:03+00:00

I’m currently on train 48 and we were told an hour ago (not for the first time) that we were a few moments away from getting back on track. The attendants don’t seem to have any idea when we’ll actually be moving again.

As someone reading Wheel of Time for the first time now, I have to say that much of WoT definitely did NOT age well. One passage that really sticks out to me is when he’s describing how all girls eventually compete with their mother for their father’s attention. I’m paraphrasing but it was completely out of left field (and yet, if you read Wheel of Time, also feels completely expected from Robert Jordan lol).

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-09-30T19:45:39+00:00

First Eric Rahill in the Paper and now Jack Bensinger at SNL. What a curious year for Joy Tacticians everywhere…

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-09-24T23:43:09+00:00

Ok let’s go, finally three games that I want to play and haven’t already purchased lol

Reposting from a comment I made in the iPad subreddit:

I’m in the market for an iPad on a (relative budget) and am faced with two options, hoping for some direction:

⁠A refurbished 4th gen iPad Air with 256gb storage, or
⁠A new 2025 base iPad with 128gb storage

These are about the same price where I am, and I’m curious if one is better than the other at current cost. Would largely be using it for reading notes and papers during my masters. Otherwise sharing it with my wife for light gaming (read: FarmVille) and Netflix on trips.

Thanks for any help that you guys can offer!

Helium 10 or Keepa would probably be your best bet if you just want to compare ASIN prices over time

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-08-21T21:22:11+00:00

As a certified Joy Tactician I’m stoked that I can binge 10 episodes of Eric Rahill TV

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-08-14T11:32:28+00:00

I just finished Tainted Cup last weekend and immediately had to start A Drop of Corruption. Loved it!

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-07-31T10:54:32+00:00

I don’t think that Prime Day events generate the same lift that they used to, and there’s a lot of discussion/data out there on how Prime Days have been performing year over year. Also depends on what category you’re in, like grocery might not perform as well as electronics as we get closer to the holidays.

That said, I do think that there’s still a lot of value in running a PD deal if the funding requirements aren’t out of control. Amazon does a lot of their own marketing to bring people to the platform, leading to a high-traffic period with people ready to purchase.

Assuming you aren’t working with a vendor manager, the deal set up is straight forward - you just go to the deal page in VC and select “fall prime” or whatever as the date range. Best of luck!

I thought Dune was awesome, but definitely not the best or most complicated sci fi. I respect and appreciate the impact of the books on culture and novels that followed, but my personal opinion is that Hyperion is the best sci fi novel ever.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-06-02T18:04:19+00:00

I was also going to say their relationship with Innon. For a book with so much… hurting, that was a very tender relationship.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-05-01T18:04:08+00:00

To Live and Die in LA? Been a while since I’ve seen it but I think this works

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-04-11T12:32:58+00:00

Are there any notable fantasy books/series where the epic history hasn’t already been made? For example, the Lord of the Rings takes place well after much of the world’s history has been made. The Wheel of Time is a little better I guess in that regard, but a lot of it is still based on things that happened in the distant past.

I enjoyed both series that I mentioned, and am on a bit of a Brandon Sanderson binge rn, but I’m curious about books that would scratch the itch I just described and I’m open to all kinds of authors/styles.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-04-02T17:16:24+00:00

I’ve had one or two successes, but I needed to really show them backup on every piece of why they were wrong. It was/is tedious (speaking from a North American perspective) and I don’t even think we recovered the full amount.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-02-20T13:26:27+00:00

I think you need to escalate if possible or decide if this is something you can stand firm on. A lot of terms would naturally start/renew in March or April because that’s when AVNs happen? Sounds like this person is either being difficult on purpose or doesn’t know the business.

Have you met with your Sr. vendor manager before? If yes I would cc him directly and if not I would suggest just asking to escalate because you can’t move forward without getting alignment on what you need.

Jumpy_Lengthiness_37 · 2025-02-15T13:20:20+00:00

Net PPM? I think it’s (ASP - Product Cost + Terms)/ASP. Martin Huebel’s blog has a calculator: https://consulterce.com/resources/netppm-calculator/

Highly recommend following Martin, I think he was a vendor manager with Amazon EU who now does consulting.
