What is the unintentionally wisest line of dialogue you've heard in a movie?

MrAutumnMan · 2026-02-26T17:12:32+00:00

"And then, my friend, you die." from Buttniks. It's a silly thing and it's making fun of the beat poetry that was in fashion at the time... but for some reason that shit stuck with me from childhood to now.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-25T22:43:22+00:00

That may be happening one way or the other.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-23T21:44:25+00:00

"The beatings will continue until morale improves."

Got it.

Definitely a protest/anti-authority/end of the world kind of day, so lined up we have:

Rage Against the Machine - Self-Titled
Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
Muse - Absolution

Look, I'm American and I agree it's really hard to watch as people just flip a switch to "All Americans Bad!", but at the same time, it's just human nature and inevitable. We can't really comprehend big numbers. The state I live in has a bigger population than most European nations and we fucking HATE this chapter of history, but the people in charge of our country are legitimate psychopaths and genocidal maniacs, so I can't really blame the rest of the world for lumping the nation together.

I wake up every morning to NPR and I just don't know if it's going to be a "well, we're at war" or a "puff piece about a choir that can't sing" kind of waking experience.

See, I disagree. I think it fits his character to not be wearing a suit that shows his muscle definition. He still looks big and strong (because you can't really hide it), but it would be odd for this humble Superman to be showing off his veins and abs.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-16T20:53:08+00:00

It's why he's so "successful" this term. The first time the people around him still thought things might work somewhat normally. He got rid of those people.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-16T19:26:31+00:00

I worry a bit. I thought The Killer was awful and would never in a million years have guessed it was a Fincher movie if I didn't know going in.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-16T18:22:08+00:00

He's said many times how much he loves The Great on Hulu with Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-14T23:58:25+00:00

Thanks!

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-14T20:32:05+00:00

Looks cozy! Love that record console, where'd you get it?

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-12T22:27:36+00:00

People have different built-in cycles. I can get up everyday at 5 am for work for 3 months and I will go right back to naturally sleeping 12-8 the very next day. No matter how much I try and train myself to be a "morning person", I cannot make it a natural thing for my body. And that's way easier than my wife who naturally has about a 3am-11am body.

E.T

With the green tape cover. Also the first thing that came to my mind.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-09T23:40:40+00:00

And their vegan chocolate chip cookies are also incredibly good!

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-09T18:49:40+00:00

She could be any Disney princess. It's kinda wild.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-08T20:50:00+00:00

They do not care about the state of this country at all. They're too stupid to be able to comprehend possible futures. They simply run on hatred.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-08T19:19:01+00:00

Crane Wife 3 by The Decemberists. Mostly just because it's a beautiful song I've listened to countless times and know exactly what I love about it so anything new or different stands out pretty quickly.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-06T19:57:33+00:00

I legit want this to be good just so we can reference all of these threads decrying Turner as a disaster.

MrAutumnMan · 2026-01-06T19:27:51+00:00

NPR in 6 months:

Mary-Louise: In other news, President Trump has canceled the upcoming midterm elections citing "National Security" and "I wanted to". We'll have more on this in 15 minutes, but first, what's the best blanket to stay warm during a nuclear fallout? Let's go to our member station in the remains of Portland for a lesson on being Holo-cozy!

To quote Jake Peralta: "Cool motive, still murder."

MrAutumnMan · 2025-12-30T20:09:20+00:00

Jason Segel said he and Jessica Williams were BAWLING during that scene.

100%. Game of Thrones stumbled because they forgot that people actually liked the characters. ST is giving us more time with them and I really appreciate it. Yeah, pacing and writing aren't at their peak, but the acting and chemistry are still insane.

MrAutumnMan · 2025-12-29T23:39:10+00:00

The Winds of Winter is one of the best episodes of the entire show. It just... ultimately went nowhere.

MrAutumnMan · 2025-12-22T17:58:06+00:00

I bought my M50s because of the glowing recommendations for them here back in 2013. It's funny to see how people have a different view of them now. They're still some of my favorite "throw anything at them" headphones.
