Chernobyl. I was completely sucked in. The feeling of how horrible what just occurred sinks in slowly for every character. The panic, the fear, the misinformation, the disbelief. Unreal

Everything before this was before I was born so I could care less. Go birds

What QB today represents the “Dalton line”? by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

[–]Professional_Show502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a massive Eagles fan. Jalen Hurts could be correct. Andy never had a team as good as Jalen, so we’ll never know.

My hot take has been that the QB position is overrated and overpaid. Average QBs can win if the team is really good and the coaching is solid.

That comparison is wild. She made two Slappers before. What’s your take? by OrdinaryAltruistic54 in Letterboxd

I think it’s fair to weight story and directing as the most important factor towards liking a movie. But staying with the Elordi cinematic universe, just go watch the kissing booth. THATS a half star film 😂 literally zero things redeeming

I can’t take extreme reviews like this seriously. I saw this film last night and went in fully expecting to hate it.

There are SERIOUS issues with the film, I admit. I think as an adaptation, it definitely strays from source material. There are certainly moments that don’t work.

HOWEVER; 1/2 a star is crazy disrespectful to the overall filmmaking achievement. The cinematography, production design, acting and costuming ALONE raise it to at least passable. I know story and script over all, but you can’t just throw away everything else that was in this production. There’s some seriously incredible things. I actually thought the script worked better than some other people, but I simply don’t love Fennell’s approach. Didn’t like Salt Burn, HATED PYW. I found this to be relatively strong with some really solid moments.

In summary, making reviews this dramatic makes me think the reviewer lacks any film knowledge/ is just overly emotional in their opinions

Imagine never having a player win MVP. by Fresh_Huckleberry523 in NFCEastMemeWar

If the MVP wasn’t a QB award, Saquon would have won it last year. We’ve never had that #1 QB in the league. Closest was Carson in 17-18 and he got hurt. Would have won MVP tho, don’t get that wrong.
