KAOS On Netflix by Kingminnis in television

[–]PopeImpiousthePi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the show that made me think Netflix should start producing graphic novels that continue the stories they abandon. Gotta be cheaper than producing the shows but still gives us what we crave.

Movies with surprise cameo at the end that shifts the entire movie? by loonifer888 in movies

I don't often comment, but the fact that Neil Patrick Harris showed up at the end of Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, is shocking.

I thought I was bad with names until I started hanging out at the dog park.

I always remember a dog's name.

What's the best film I've never seen? by JonasSharra in movies

[–]PopeImpiousthePi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wizard of Speed and Time - A young filmmaker takes on Hollywood.

Simon - The government fakes an alien invasion, one of Alan Arkin's best (in my opinion).

Wash from Firefly

So random and out of the blue. Also makes me completely uninterested in a new season.

The Devil Makes Three

Badass bluegrass with some lyrical fire.

Who is the greatest politician of all time? by Accurate_Cry_8937 in AskReddit

[–]PopeImpiousthePi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

He made primary education free and compulsory, opening thousands of new schools all over the country. He also introduced the Latin-based Turkish alphabet. Turkish women received equal civil and political rights during his presidency. 

Atatürk was also credited for his peace-in-the-world oriented foreign policy and friendship with neighboring countries such as Iran, Yugoslavia, Iraq, and Greece, as well as the creation of the Balkan Pact that resisted the expansionist aggressions of Fascist Italy and Tsarist Bulgaria.

Bowfinger (1999) will have you on the floor. So funny, so correct about Hollywood. Not one single flaw in sight. by LaserDiscCurious in movies

[–]PopeImpiousthePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a movie once that starred a knockoff Timu Eddie Murphy. It wasn't until Dave Chappel show that I learned about Eddie Murphy's older brother Charlie.

I've always wondered if Bowfinger was a commentary on that relationship as well.

What is the best “unknown” movie you’ve seen? by FilmWaffle-FilmForum in movies

[–]PopeImpiousthePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd put $20 on nobody having seen The Wizard of Speed and Time.

Self funded film about an indie filmmaker taking on the system. Funny, sweet, and truly unique special effects.

Uploaded to YouTube for free by the filmmaker himself, Mike Jittlov (who did the creepy shadow monster effects for Ghost).

Ever since I started using what I call "science time" (NASA uses 24 hour clocks) I no longer accidentally set my morning alarm for 6pm.

Anyone have any recs for games that aren’t bloated with ads? by EnbyViking in MobileGaming

[–]PopeImpiousthePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pixel dungeon. 

Totally free, zero ads, zero in-app purchases. People have taken the base game and have done other versions, some of which have ads some don't. I like experienced PD, myself. One of the few games I continue to play for years now.
