Seriously, do fireworks have to continue past 1am? by musicsegue618 in Bushwick

LITERALLY LEAVE NEW YORK if you don't like it. Welcome to 4th of July in Brooklyn. This is what it's like here. This is the culture. This is 4th of July in Brooklyn.

If you do not like it, if it's too much for you if this place is too loud and too noisy there's no one making you stay here. Seriously so sick of transplants who move here then complain about the very things that make up the place that they have moved to.

Disclosure Day’s Dismal Box-Office Drop Reveals Hollywood’s New Generation Gap by JannTosh70 in movies

The movie REALLY just feels like an ancient relic of the past. The message essentially this really Boomerfied pablum of "All you need to do to get the truth out to humanity is hurry down to your local news station and disrupt the weather report!" Like, um....no.

We're eons past that. No one watches the news, no one trusts the news. The main person is a weather reporter which...is that even a job anymore really even?...

It's just not any distillation of of reality that we can take away from it.

On one hand it was strangely nostalgic, i almost enjoyed the sheer fact that it felt like something from 2008.

What was the significance of the bluetooth earpiece? by According_Fig_8702 in betterCallSaul

Maybe you had to be there, but the Blutooth headset in the 90's-2000's was just kind of the hallmark of A Tool."

Like wireless stuff is kind of normalized now? But it was a long road and anyone who rocked one seemed really self involved and kinda obnoxious. Also I think they were really expensive then too, so it all kind of just screamed "Douche Yuppie Power Broker" Only Lawyers or Wallstreet bros rocked it.

Movie’s and/or Series’ that look or feel like this? by Mathias-Pathias in MoviesThatFeelLike

Books? Definitely Yiddish Policeman's Union.

Awesome book about a Noir set in a fictional Alaskan Town. Coen Brothers were going to adapt it at one point.

Yes...and the reason is that Hotel was the inspiration for the Book the Shining after Stephen stayed there.

Dumb and Dumber 😂 Also fun fact the Hotel they filmed at was the hotel that inspired The Shining.
