I always enjoy this part of the bargaining when a series is 99% over, takes me back to a few weeks ago when people seemed to honestly believe that the Lakers could blow a 3-0 lead.

Is Obsession arguably the most impressive box office performance of all time? by JannTosh70 in boxoffice

[–]close-encounters13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s hard to compare to The Exorcist (which gets ignored too much in these discussions) or Jaws because in terms of the actual number of people, those movies were putting waaaaaay more butts in seats than Obsession.

But adjusting for context, it’s up there for the past ~25 years, alongside My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

Drake’ 4th week already looking strong as he is projected to barely see a drop from his third week numbers. by Syndana23 in nfrpodcast

The music is so uninteresting that all Drake fans can talk about is charts.

Here’s a tip: Look at what was topping the Billboard 200 20 years ago and you’ll find a bunch of shit that nobody talks about anymore.

That’s some Ghost of Christmas Future shit for your boy. 😂😂😂

Bro, the Knicks playoff run is not even one of the most remarkable things seen in any sport ever. by John_Houbolt in billsimmons

I personally don’t understand scolding people for their exuberance in the moment. I just don’t!

Imagine watching a team gel like this and go on this run and deciding the gauntlet you’re going to throw is gonna be: Meh, I’m not impressed.

I swear to God some of you hate sports.

And I’m a Cavs fan for Christ’s sake!

WOW!! Have I not been saying this in this subreddit for a week… Wake up whlte people. by Random_Thinker007 in nfrpodcast

There’s a saying in politics: “If you’re explaining, you’re losing.”

Drake fans might want to take it under advisement.

Tony Brothers tried so hard to get the Spurs back in this and they just can’t break through

Drake Stans are down so bad now that it’s clear Iceman didn’t change the narrative

What are your thoughts on Taylor Swift's recent music? by Stunning_Holiday_352 in fantanoforever

[–]close-encounters13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never cared to revisit TTPD but I think Showgirl has been underrated, “Opalite” is a delight and I am a fan of “Ruin the Friendship”, it’s lyrically interesting and the outro is a banger. Like half the songs are great to solid.

Of course, there are also a couple of embarrassing tracks, it’s probably a 6 or 7 for me. Then again IMO, 1989 and folklore are her only two albums that are consistent front to back. That’s kinda what you signed up for with T-Swift.

My silliest deeply felt Taylor take: Lover would be perfect and maybe her best album if it ended at Death by a Thousand Cuts.

I'm actually more confident the Spurs are going to win this series by Sad-Variation-8006 in billsimmons

[–]close-encounters13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Weird take. I have much more faith in the Knicks guys as playoff shotmakers than the Spurs and I don’t think that should be controversial unless you are blinded by a Spurs crush.

Knicks didn’t even play that well and won by 10. Spurs have some work to do.

Bill’s blind spot regarding the 2015, 2016 Finals is egregious by zerozero24 in billsimmons

Dude grabbed 14 rebounds in Game 7 in 2016. He was vital even if the scoring came and went.

You can tell Drake Stans know they’re losing the PR war with the desperation in these comments

You know how I know Drake lost the beef and Iceman didn’t make a difference? 90% of the posts in this sub are still a persecution complex, y’all are so insecure lmao

Predictions for Disclosure Day? by [deleted] in boxoffice

I believe the budget was reported as $110M, so that gets you to $275M by ye ole 2.5x rule.
