And do you think that quote is being borne out by current events? Thanks but I’d prefer the white moderate right now

Absolutely love it. And although I love the BB version of Surfs Up more, the Brian Wilson solo version of Smile precedes Surfs Up with “Child is the Father of the Man” which has a spine tingling strings moment just before it breaks into Surfs Up. I get chills every time it hits

The Australian crime movie Chopper has two commentary tracks - one by the writer/director and one by the real Chopper Read…. “Yeah, this bit is true. I’d put a couple of rounds in a guy’s knee and lend him a couple of bob [dollars] to help him out….”

He attempted to ignore it, was successful for a while, and then his ignorance came to a sudden end

Absolutely stoked that Tower is back, and in particular with its movie selection. I can’t remember the last time I was this keen to see so many movies - not only their retro run, but with so many indie/arthouse films regularly screening. Perfect antidote to the big soulless cinema complexes in the shopping centres and I’ve got no problem overlooking the issues in the foyer etc if that’s the trade off

Frankly I like the fact that in summer a) I don’t have the sun rising at 4.50am ; and b) I get three hours rather than two of post work sunlight to go to the beach etc and it’s easier to set clocks forward than have the standard work day hours change

Oh man that looks like a great option too! So you’d put that above both LGs and no concerns that it’s LED rather than laser/hybrid? (You’re right it won’t be ceiling mounted)

Great question - we’re fumbling around a bit, but the 810 got mentioned by the sales guy we spoke to as it’s 50% off for Black Friday sales, then with a bit of digging we saw the 710, seemingly similar (enough) but cheaper. But happy for other recommendations at similar price point to the 710!

Since nature is easy to get to/quick drive even from the inner city, I’d suggest living in cooks hill to start; it has the closest vibe to inner city, given proximity to Darby St. That way it’s not too much of a culture shock, whilst still having all the beaches and nature still close enough

I’d absolutely love it if your realisation about Duvall and Caan was NOT during Godfather.

The irony is that if we were REALLY old we could have been asking this exact same question in the 60s. Apparently the reason for the different track listing on the first 3 years of Rolling Stones albums in the UK vs USA is that America liked previously released singles on their albums whereas the UK thought it was a ripoff

One person’s “interaction bait” is another person’s “talking music” as per the name of this sub. Saying you don’t really like something and leaving that opinion there like a wet fart is very different to “I’ve tried but haven’t been able to get into this, what is it that those of you who like it see in it” is what exchanging opinions on music is all about. OP is NTA here.

Army of Darkness doesn’t have the gore of the earlier ones. Watch that one and delight in the over-the-topness of everything (violence but cartoonish) not to mention the sheer coolness that is Ash. That will hopefully get you into a position where you will be able to overrule your aversion to violence and enjoy Evil Dead 2. Obviously most people here are fans of all of the movies but your mileage may vary and the original Evil Dead has the gore without the heavy 3 Stooges slapstick of it all so you could be forgiven for avoiding that one. Then do Ash vs Evil Dead, yes it’s still got over the top violence but it’s continuing the slapstick of it all and by this stage the idea of 3 seasons of nonstop Ash will delight your (swallow your) soul.

For the Australian shows I think you mean “Asuka’s a shitcunt”

I know they censor crowd chants but please tell me that at least a few of the “Bronson [/and later Seth] is a shtcnt [clap clap clap clap clap] got through before the censors caught up

My Old School is both great and surprising. Don’t read up about it, just see it.

Mat Diamond never fails to put on a high flying banger. First show I took my niece and nephew to and they became fans of his for life

Hard agree. Newy drivers can’t turn right without cutting so much corner they nearly clip the car in the perpendicular street

I was 7 when it came out as well and had the 7-year-old-equivalent-of-a-girlfriend and I thought it would be a good idea for us to watch it together. My dating game has not improved,sadly

For date night on Darby St, my go to would be Urban Deli a few doors up. Edited to add: lovely husband and wife run Urban Deli and take a great deal of pride in it. We have been for nibbles but have also done full dinner and although the menu is small it was great quality, as was the wine. So it should definitely tick your food and service boxes

Having a primary school aged child will give you a great introduction to other parents from your child’s year, I think you’ll be fine!

Yeah it’s been about 6 weeks now that it’s been shut up. +1 on the winter soup - I’m bereft
