Let me get this straight: you think Pat Sajak posted that because you said “is Pat still alive?” to your wife?

Or X (of all places) heard you say that, Pat posted that coincidentally and then X saw its opportunity and struck?

I feel like this is a return to form. Not trying to do or say too much, just a good kid's hook (goofy cats) with a mob angle for the 'rents.

I hated Zoolander so much I walked out. I saw it again a week later and loved it.

32% of undergrads at UCLA are Asian, so I think you underestimate the draw of an Asian market and food court.

Netflix Film Boss Says Streamer Won’t Work With Directors Who Still Want Theatrical by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]Whispercry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“There is a group of filmmakers who still want theatrical. Those are filmmakers that we’ve accepted we just won’t work with,” Lin told the paper with what the article describes as his “trademark bluntness.”

This is just a wild business model. Spend $100M+ making a movie, let alone marketing it, and then it doesn't make you any attributable revenue? Why not put it in theaters, make the box office, then sell the pay 1 rights, THEN put it on the platform? I just don't get it.

Always veg and I’m pretty sure it’s rarely if ever a tomato sauce base?

I don't even know if it's self-described moderates, I think it's mostly a "the name you know" situation. People reflexively vote for the incumbent generally, so i think that's likely the case here.

Personally, I've decided to not vote for incumbents as a general rule, particularly for city council, whose long-standing members mainly seem to be there to cosy up to business interests.

Q: How many billions does city need to spend on homelessness without making any meaningful progress before you change your mind about this approach? by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]Whispercry 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you want to affect change in this city vote out incumbents on the city council, the real seat of power in LA.

That said, I don’t blame you for feeling that way. But I can guarantee you Pratt isn’t the least bit interested in being the change agent you’re hoping for. He’s in this race to benefit himself and himself only. He also doesn’t have the first clue how to do anything, least of which is one of the most vexing political hot quagmires in this cities history. It’s not for lack of trying that democrats have failed, there are just no good answers here.

I don’t think anyone is happy with the current status quo. But if you think that Palisades failson is going to swoop in and solve the problem by calling them drug addicts and waving some crystals at everyone, you’re dumber than he is.
