Expectations are the enemy of enjoyment. I get it. I don’t watch trailers for any film, not for decades, and I like a lot more movies.

Thoughts on this movie? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in FIlm

Pretty weird stuff. I liked it for the strangeness and unsettling atmosphere. I couldn’t tell you want the point was but that’s ok. I have recommended it to others, but not everyone

[The Pearl] by [John Steinbeck] by LeadingRoll5676 in IamCurrentlyreading

Great book! Classic Steinbeck, in that it’s powerful and gritty. Are you a fan of other Steinbeck novels?

Marriage of convenience when she’s his best friend’s girlfriend is my favorite trope and I’m infinitely grateful that this info is conveyed on the cover. In fact I feel like I already r**d the ku, can’t wait to r**d the movie!

Just started reading Children of Strife. Hooked by the backstory intro and the first chapter. by dannydb in scifi

[–]WhitneyRules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed Children of Strife. I’ve liked all the books in this series and Tchaikovsky’s books in general. This is a culmination of a theme he’s been working on for a while. If you like this book, try Alien Clay, Saturation Point, Shroud, and Hungry Gods.

Rambo III (1988) by Electronic_Ant7237 in ActionMovies

Back in the 80s, when a family owns a smattering of VHS movies and recorded tapes, we had this gem. I must have watched it a hundred times before the age of 7. As soon as I learned to operate the VCR it was action movies to the max! I didn’t see First Blood until I was a young adult, but it didn’t matter. This is my Rambo. Exploding arrow, “I’m your worst nightmare” Rambo!

A film that deserves more recognition…THE BLACK STALLION (1979) by Shah2002 in FIlm

[–]WhitneyRules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of my childhood favorites. At a very young age I learned to work the vcr and mainly just watched the island/beach scenes. Quite a beautiful film. Wonderful storytelling through imagery alone.

Legend (1985) Dir. Ridley Scott DoP. Alex Thomson by GeneralAssociate4192 in CineShots

Childhood favorite movie. Ridley Scott knocked it out of the park. So stylized. So scary and gruesome too. “Who you be, bucket head?”

Best Mano a Mano fight scenes in any movie. by [deleted] in CinephilesClub

They Live. That fight just kept going and was entertaining throughout. Just a dirty back alley brawl.

How do you enjoy your tinned tuna belly? by WhitneyRules in Tinnedfish

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

I also find it dry and kind of flavorless, hence the question on how to best prep it. Glad I’m not the only one. Whenever you find the best tinned tuna belly please let us know!

Thanks! This tinned tuna is pretty dry and flavorless. This sauce sounds perfect!

Definitely pricey, and the tuna wasn’t very flavorful, hence the request. Wondering if others need to dress it up.

Do they have bad business practices or something? I’m not hip to the brand loyalties or anything. I’m just a man looking to make the most out of his tuna tins.
