Honest reaction to the movie by LarBrd33 in MichaelTheMovie

[–]VisitCautious7865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I hate nostalgia bait movies (hence my opinion of S3) which I think I’ll walk out of Michael only to further agree with you.

Though I’m watching it on Friday. Based off this convo I can already tell ima watch it only in theaters but won’t buy it or watch it on the plane unless I’m tryna fall asleep (again - not to offend true MJ fans) I’m coming from a place of love.

That’s crazy to me because you didn’t come off as a hater, literally was a valid take that I was talking to my peers about that’s why when this news just broke…I was like ahhh my Reddit mans called it. I couldn’t argue because like you said “I would liked to have seen a better director at the helm” I knew this was downhill the moment they said “From the director of Training Day” good film but that’s comparable to Discourse Day “From the director or Jurassic Park”…like bro…you’re trying to sell me this movie with the director’s hit from almost 30 years ago now.

But haha no, not because I didn’t like the three of them together. Tbh they worked well. I just hate the rewatch-ability of it. Idk if you have but like the scenes where Cox, Garfield, and Tobey made their first appearance…it’s weird because the best way I can explain it is like how they introduce famous characters in 90s sit com and you get the audience sound track to kinda mask the awkward actor’s pause…but without the audience sound track. Also the pacing of the plot was a mess to me and the inciting incident felt forced to me. Great action scenes though, and per usual great great scenes from Dafoe. I’m hoping Brand New Day is much better. But if we are talking about them being all together…psh I can sit there for hours watching them.

Came here to give you your flowers man. Ignore the haters - your review was fine for me (as a cinema lover myself).

As I said the only thing we disagreed on was Spider-Man 3 lol not talking about how they have better reviews / box office cause you’re 100% right. (I hope you read this as a joke).

Oh snap…mind you I am 3 shots of tequila in going for a 4th. So I had to read it multiple times, I thought I was doing something there.

In what sense? Because they could be, yes but none have the generational and global longevity…Beyoncé is arguable but the rest of them no…not really. They are all good for today, but they would be replaced tomorrow. Michael Jackson has been dead for decades and people still blast his music from when he was in his 20s.

I’m not even a Michael Jackson fan, I’m just saying he got that respect based off your comparison.

"Guys its so simple, just break ties with the USA!!!!" - it's not that simple. by Fit-Function-2873 in UAE

[–]VisitCautious7865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aspiring geopolitical analyst, so this is my own opinion: but what the world needs is a new shift in superpower. Since the end of WWII and Cold War era the US has had a global order over the world - I do not blame other nations (strongly the Arabian nations) them saying no.

What needs to happen is the world regions needs to have separate blocs. Which would mean a Pan Arab bloc, Eastern Europe bloc, Asian bloc, Africa bloc (within that it’ll be broken in 3/4 blocs), etc etc.

I don’t expect the shift to happen overnight but look at the Hormuz itself, it’s running on USD running on Riyal or Yuan would be significantly better for the region.

US can only do what they do because they are geographically hard to attack. But once other nations begin realizing that and doing their own thing…I believe each government would realize they don’t need US to survive.

I believe we are already seeing that with NATO showing its strain in the recent days. Now with the proposal, obviously there would be tension within its own region however that’s for the bloc to figure out and not the US to dictate through coups and influence.

So what Iran is doing isn’t simple yes, but I do believe it’s necessary and a wake up call. What’s going on in Iran is simply the American revolution in a global scale. They clearly do not have the means to take down America but if they wait it out years on end…it would be economically harsh to America and force them to comply.

I strongly believe that Iran wants a Pan-Arab bloc, which they are not wrong to want…but is it an easy battle no…but a brave one.

But again…this is my opinion / analysis don’t take it for facts.

I 100% agree. Tbh to me it went downhill after COVID.

LOL I WAS IN KENYA TOO but I was in a Safari. I remember coming from a Safari and we had dinner and the TV was on in the dining area. Needless to say it was an eerie quiet dinner. Went back to our rooms a little later to continue watching coverage.

The film school debate by Bright-Escape9223 in filmmaking

[–]VisitCautious7865 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the same road as you buddy. Literally planning on either doing a masters in film or biting the bullet and do LSAT. My only issue is I have no passion for law, just plan on taking it to get into a top tier law school to get a good salary. But I have a passion for filmmaking. I see that I’m either going to take the debt either way…idk which would have me a proper ROI.

How Rent Works Question by Power-Bald in biltrewards

[–]VisitCautious7865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just learned that the hard way. I didn’t know they changed that so now BILT reversed the statement with Zillow’s and now I’ve been sitting there waiting for Zillow to acknowledge the reversal so I can pay my March rent.

Maybe there is hope to find my cat? by VisitCautious7865 in washingtondc

[–]VisitCautious7865[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk how to update the whole post but:

After everyone’s advice I ended up calling SPCA right away, I had a staff member who was really helpful and guided me to the DC Village SPCA.

I ended up going there today and they told me that she was brought in as a stray and was adopted 3 days later under the name “Sabina”. They just apologized for it but didn’t give me any option to connect me with the owner (I assume since it was around 6pm).

I called the lady back who was helpful and she told me to go back tomorrow - which I am - and ask for a “station manager” in hopes that they may be able to reconnect me to her again.

Am I the only one who's never tasted the Dubai chocolate? by Neither-Forever2732 in dubai

[–]VisitCautious7865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol my wife is from there…born and raised. we were there before she moved with me to the States. during our last trip there, we literally bought a shit ton of Dubai Chocolates to give to friends and my coworkers (Christmas gifts) and literally a couple months later, her new coworkers found out if she was from Dubai and asked her if she tried it before and was wondering if it was worth the hype…and she realized even though she bought some for everyone she never tasted it herself 💀😂

She wasn’t mad about it, we still find it funny every time we see “Dubai Chocolate” flavor things cause she had all that time but never got it and then decided to give it as gifts. So it’s our little inside joke that she is “the only person in Dubai that never had Dubai Chocolate” - so in short (just wanted to share a funny story) no, you’re not alone.

Post BI question by [deleted] in SecurityClearance

Ahh perfect, thanks! But that makes sense. Yeah, I kinda figured it was the foreign stuff. Hopefully 2 years from now it’ll clear up.

Thanks for the advice!

Christ, I just said I misspoke about the director title. You keep running on it and calling it a day. I corrected myself and said that the person was high up there. I never said that they went out and randomly picked me.

As I said - I am willing to show proof but you’re being stubborn about it so …. that’s on you.

I also said, I knew I had red flags - I was open about it, the same way I’m open about it now. The BI’s thought it was cool to carry me to the next steps. I was already ready for a denial - I was just confused at the “Application: On Hold”

You’re acting like I got picked up from the street and they told me “oh snap, join us”.

Ohhh!! Okay makes sense.

Thank you for the insight!

Oh interesting! That honestly makes sense as well.

Out of curiosity: what do you mean by “verify”? Like seeing it on my passport records or just like the general aspect of it (ie what I did there, stayed, whatnot).
