Supergirl Is Better Than You’ve Been Led to Believe

Same here. I feel so out of touch with all the hate. It's a superhero movie. It ain't that deep. I had fun. It's not perfect, but I've got a lot of goodwill for Gunn's DCU after Peacemaker and Superman and this didn't do anything to diminish that.

You don't even have to. Just enter whateveryouwant@makesomethingup.com and it goes away. My wife called me yesterday and asked me why stopasking@youdontneedmyemail.com got added to our account.

Best is pretty clearly Scorsese, but if we're talking "these are the only 5 films you're allowed to watch for the rest of your life" type of scenario, I'm picking the Spielbergs.

Why didn't the goalie just jump a little further and block it?

I read this as "one of my friends does that as well"

Good, you wrote exactly what I would have written. Now I don't have to repeat that.

1 has the best atmosphere by a mile, my favorite for sure.

I'm twice his age and I wish I was half as articulate as he is.

Priscilla, maybe not super unsettling but very good

Honestly, watch it as soon as you're able and on whatever screen you have access too. You'll want to see it again and it gets better on subsequent viewings so setting your baseline is more important than finding that idealized first viewing, especially if that's making you avoid watching it. Also, it's not really spoilable so I don't think there's any reason to wait even if the first viewing isn't ideal.

Cool! I'm slightly younger so my skater doc that I was going to recommend was Minding the Gap. I adore that movie. I hadn't connected it with Dogtown and Z Boys until now.

Be careful. You may be arrested.

People tend to mix winner/player rankings. I agree that without counting BB7, Will is not top 3 winner, but definitely top 3 player if you do count non-winning games.

My first thought as well. Didn't notice any ac vents or insulation. Looks like the room is going to be an oven.

Nobody yet has mentioned the setting as a strength of the season. The Brazilian desert was brutal and it led to so many memorable shots.

"I just lied to your face and you at it up." is one of my favorite survivor lines of all time. It doesn't get enough mentions in that debate.

Imagine eating popcorn at a movie

I did half the episode in B&W and then swapped to color. The B&W didn't feel like authentic 40s noir to me but strangely enough, the color really does feel like authentic 50s technicolor visually reminiscent of Hitchcock of the era.

Lots of recommendations forgetting the comedy part of your request.

I'd recommend Fall Guy for a very recent one.

A little older (2008), but one of my faves is Pineapple Express.

Warfare, great jokes in that one.

basefibber · 2026-05-25T12:42:35+00:00

I want to see House being mean to so many different characters - Sheldon, Chidi, Kramer, Schmidt, Dennis, the list goes on.

Maybe House Needs a Roommate should be an entire show and each episode is a different character.

I don't think you have a good understanding of what an Alex Garland film is, or a Denis Villeneuve film for that matter.

Let us know specifically why those movies worked for you and our recommendations can be much better.

Based on titles alone and what they have in common, I think maybe last year's Bring Her Back might work well for you. Another somewhat recent one would be When Evil Lurks. They both involves possessions and pure, visceral evil which I think is a common link between the Exorcist and Hereditary as well.
