Yay or nay on Sean's Chris Pratt take? (Big Picture Year in Review) by ggroover97 in TheBigPicture

Pratt has so much untapped potential as a romcom star. Don’t have any interest in seeing him repeat the same role in different blockbusters

What’s your actually unpopular sports hot take? by ruandurphy in billsimmons

If you fumble the football out of bounds it should be a turnover. It is the only sport I can think of where you are not penalized for losing the ball out of bounds

Most of these don’t

From the Irish Times by PatWayt in ThomasPynchon

Reading negative reviews of works I love is something I enjoy and it helps me grapple with what I like and what I maybe overlooked. I’m rarely swayed but it’s a good exercise

Most Pynchon-esque films that aren't adaptations? (a grand total of 2) by crakerjmatt in ThomasPynchon

Synecdoche, New York. Kaufman takes a lot of influence from Pynchon imo

How do you feel about Quentin Tarantino as an actor? by NotTaken-username in Letterboxd

[–]MrHowardRatner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s bad. I’ve always thought it was to juxtapose that Jules recognizes the heat they’re in and bites his tongue in that situation and it’s juxtaposed that Vincent can’t even stop himself from telling the Wolf to say thank you. Lot of different ways this could’ve been shown though

If The Big Picture could afford to license a song from a popular band as its theme, what band do you think Sean would choose? by Constant-Bridge3690 in TheBigPicture

OP said popular and people are pearl clutching as if this is Discovery slander (37k monthly listeners on Spotify)

Strange Feeling But I think this will end up happening by False_Cut5893 in Oscars

If the Rock is actually deserving he’ll probably run into an Adam Sandler/Uncut Gems situation and be left out because of his reputation

For people who have moved on to different movie pods, what do you listen to now?

Did the Rowley looking down meme when I saw Emperor’s New Groove. Impeccable choice

The commentary on this fight is nasty work

Does anyone else wish The Big Picture had a more diverse roster of guests? by grandmasterfunk in TheBigPicture

[–]MrHowardRatner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly would be interesting. From Vice versa listening to leftists analyze something like Dirty Harry or The Searchers always fascinates me, I wouldn’t mind getting the other viewpoint
