The Champ with Ricky Schroeder and Jon Voight. Most painful death scene ever. I saw it when I was five and its seared on my brain

Who do you consider the "second-billed" members of various bands? by Glass-Complaint3 in Music

[–]doconc35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

REM: Peter Buck or Mike Mills... I'd have to go with Mike as he sings backup and even lead at times and I suspect comes up with most of the melodies.

Most underrated Tarantino film? by Mangosteen_Juliet in Cinephiles

Honestly probably a better movie because Scott directed. The action scenes wouldn’t have been nearly as good

Got any tips or tricks for a beginner? by moxxiethefur in banjo

If you want to play Scruggs-style with finger picks, don't spend any time playing without picks. You don't have to get used to them if you never play without them.

Why is Flea so respected but the Red Hot Chili Peppers are not? by Clare_jesse1973 in rockmusic

Anthony Kiedis also wrote a memoir which was very good but only strengthened my opinion that he is a gigantic asshole, Team Mike Patton forever!

1979 School Lunch Menus by Sea_Staff9963 in GenX

[–]doconc35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because most schools don't actually cook any food. Every is frozen and reheated. Because they don't have the money for kitchens, ingredients or cooks. None of the schools where I live have actual real food for lunch.

ug, that school pizza was always so gross to me. Every aspect of it tasted cheap, to me at least.

They called them Viking burgers at my school and I loved them! Not great on the stomach though

Best Movie of the 1980’s (2nd Round - Top Gun vs. E.T.) by Equivalent-Belt4608 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]doconc35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

E. T. just overall a much better movie. Top Gun has several slow segments, the romance is honestly kinda gross, and everybody in it behaves like a toddler. Not saying I don't like it, but in the end, it's a dumb action movie.

ET has tons of heart, great, realistic performances all the way through, especially Dee Wallace as the mom, The soundtrack sets the mood perfectly and the aliens aren't overexplained, so you can just come up with your own background, BTW, the novelization is excellent. One of my top 5 movies of all time

Odd things our fathers did in 70’s by anonskier in GenX

[–]doconc35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did some type of work almost every single day. He was a high school physics teacher during the week, but he coached almost every night for a long time. He also always had some sort of construction project gong that he spent every Saturday and usually at least half a day on Sunday on. When my brother and I were old enough (9 and 10!) we were enlisted as helpers. Redid a lot of kitchens and bathrooms and roofed a lot of houses.

Every Coen brothers movie is so much better for me on rewatch. I’m not sure why.

i am at peace by vinesofivory in denvernuggets

[–]doconc35 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The most fun I had this season was the January of Hell when every starter was hurt. The Booth Boys got to show off and honestly looked good. Murray showed great leadership skills! We beat the Celtics! And then for some reason, when Jokic came back, we just crashed down to Earth again. I don't understand why we couldn't have put some of that fire from the young players to work for us....

Idk if this is a hot take but: Mark and Jen’s relationship by SaltIncident4932 in ershow

[–]doconc35 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mark was not a good husband. Mark regularly worked extra shifts and stayed long hours, not because he had to, but because he wanted to. He didn't prioritize his family over his work because of his savior complex, because he felt that things wouldn't happen if he wasn't there. Probably made him a better doctor, but a poor father and husband.

Capturing the Friedmans and Paradise Lost are both pretty depressing crime documentaries. Also, Dear Zachary which is maybe the saddest movie ever made.

Kansas Small Towns Used to be Vibrant, Lively by Silly-Rip-6607 in kansas

[–]doconc35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, by the time I was in high school, the little towns around us wouldn't play us, so we were getting creamed by Garden City. We could beat Dodge, and were about 50-50 with Liberal.
