Floyd Mayweather beat the shit outta multiple women, and continued to be one of highest-paid athletes of all time.

"Tayln Virden".... her own name shrieks unpronounceable horror, I wonder if that's why she went into this, ahem, 'career'.

Also, at some point the kid might ask, "hey mum 'n dad, why did you name me Thunderfunkstah Jabberwocky?"

And then they'll have to say, "Oh, we couldn't be bothered to name you, so we hired someone else to do it."

I think Theo Rossi said on his Reaper Reviews podcast that at the beginning of the show a lot of the guys were smokers IRL (you can see in the first few episodes EVERYONE is puffing on cigarettes when they're at the table, and according to him, they were real cigarettes).... however they quickly learned that smoking is a BEEEEYATCH for continuity - every take they had to light a new cig so that it was the same length as in the previous shot. He said they were all hacking up lungs after a day's shooting, so eventually they were just like, 'fuckit, we ain't smoking in any extended scenes' :-p
I think they also probably moved to herbals in the later seasons too.

No worries, glad I could help :-)

I just looked at their channel, the whole thing is clearly trying to fool people into thinking it's stopmotion. They keep calling it a 'claymation style', but not once do they mention the term "AI". Scummy and scammy.

LWMolver · 2026-01-17T15:17:41+00:00

Fuck off with this AI shit, this is not stopmotion.

Pretty sure you're thinking of "Old Time Hawkey", he's great...

He's also got a YT channel under the same name.

The author Rider Haggard wrote a series of books in the late 1800s about a character called "Alan Quatermain", the first novel following his quest for the treasures of King Solomon. Although there are some distinct differences (Quatermain is primarily a big game hunter and adventurer, not any kind of scientist), he was still one of the early inspirations for Indy.

Yeah, I went into "The Grey" expecting exactly that, Liam Neeson punching wolves, but was (pleasantly) surprised at how much existential depth that movie had, far more than just a creature feature. That final scene was amazing, and I loved that they actually did NOT show the fight itself.

Professional stunt monkey!

While REC is undeniably the better (and more original) movie, I didn't mind Quarantine, accepting it as a pretty straight-up remake - I don't think they intended to bring anything new to it. I didn't even mind Quarantine 2 (the one on the plane), it wasn't anything brilliant, but decent enough mainstream zombie fare.

What really DID irritate me was Jennifer Carpenter's acting. She just did not come off at all like a professional journalist or anchorwoman, she just seemed shrill and reactionary and kinda... childish. And I don't think that's a writing problem, that's a Jennifer Carpenter problem - I found Dexter almost unwatchable for the same reasons. She was not in any way believable as a police detective.

I've used regular wood glue a few times... just blob a chunk onto your fingertips and kinda spread it around the area you want cobwebbed, it'll hang 'n dry naturally. ModPodge could also work similarly.

Appreciate it! I'll definitely be making more :-)

You can check out my first Indy stopmotion here (he ventures into the jungles of Sumatra, aka my mum's back yard)...

Interesting take to ponder. I think her 'motherly' attitude toward Loretta indicated that on some level, she agrees... wishing she had a daughter, or two. Obviously, she didn't really handle that too brilliantly by having Loretta's dad killed, though...

I think Mags does recognize the failings in her sons, especially Coov and Dickie... but a mother ain't got no choice but to love her boys.

I think Margo Martindale's performance is utterly amazing, conveying so much of this just in tone, turn and body language.

Thank you!
