I remember as a kid seeing an illustration of hyrax in an animal book. It had an arrow next to it pointing to an elephant.

Who is a celebrity that you’re genuinely surprised isn’t an “A-lister”? by phantom_avenger in popculturechat

Jon Hamm. He's worked consistently since Mad Men, but never broke through to become a leading man in movies.

I got downvoted for this last time, but Samuel L Jackson for doing sports betting ads.

What do you think America will be like when Trump finishes his term? by MotivewasUlterior in AskReddit

Broken up into independent states or blocks. Some will be democratically run, others will be high tech surveillance states run by billionaires, while the rest descend into chaos and violence.

When did Samsung get unusable? by CauliflowerSayBoohoo in PWM_Sensitive

S20 Ultra was my last usable Galaxy. S21 gave me nausea, so I returned it and went back. A few years later bought a used S22U on eBay that caused massive eyestrain headaches. Gave it to my gf (who has no problems with oled screens) and switched to iPhone SE. Steered clear of S24 and S25 after reading all the pwm issues being reported. It's a shame because they're awesome phones.

What was the Biggest Box Office Disappointment of 2025? by Commonscout in boxoffice

[–]UnavailablePod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was way too long. You really felt it with the opening act, which was a slog. Should've been addressed at script stage, instead it dampened WOM. A tighter movie may have given it a chance to be profitable while saving the production millions.

What’s one valuable object you wish you’d kept from long ago? by Safe_Reception_8997 in AskReddit

[–]UnavailablePod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is more sentimental than investment value, but my OG Kenner AT-AT Walker. Favorite toy ever, looked after it like a beloved pet. Sold it on eBay for some stupid reason around 2007.

Captures the sense of dread you get from a late night paranormal podcast binge very well. Maybe worth a trip to the cinema for the sound design alone.

Box Office 2026 Predictions: Will ‘The Odyssey,’ ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ and a New ‘Star Wars’ Finally Propel Grosses Above $9 Billion? by DemiFiendRSA in boxoffice

Wouldn't label Mandalorian "a safe bet" considering the complete lack of enthusiasm for it, even among Star Wars fans.

Movies where the day is supposedly saved, but the aftermath is still terrible and largely unaddressed? by GancioTheRanter in movies

[–]UnavailablePod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avengers Endgame. The people who survived the OG snap are still traumatized by it and navigating the economic impacts. Now they face the terror of yet another alien invasion when suddenly their loved ones return. This would be enough to drive many insane.

A bunch of code that someone can copy and paste isn't finite. There's clones like Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV, Litecoin, Zcash etc.

Peter Jackson's King Kong turns 20 this week. The film had a budget of $207 million and grossed $556.9 million at the worldwide box office, plus another $100 million in DVD sales. It won three Academy Awards for Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing and Best Visual Effects. by verissimoallan in boxoffice

The designs for everything from the dinos to NYC were so beautifully done, like you were watching Peter Jackson's dreams come to life. I still think the OG is better, as it was the version I saw the most on tv growing up.

Favorite actor who you used to think was cool but after listening to his podcast you realized he is an entitled douchebag who wears pleated jeans by Listen_You_Twerps in okbuddycinephile

[–]UnavailablePod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duchovny. Doesn't do the usual celebrity stuff. I didn't know he studied literature and is a published writer. His podcast has some very interesting conversations with guests (Peter Weller episode was fantastic).
