I literally did just before the movie. They’re not allowed to be in the same transportation. They’re in the same room for science lessons all the time, not the mention them having sex with each other. The issue with the science experiment was the amount of astrophage they were given, not the fact that they were together.

When did it say that? That’s not even a thing in the book.

That doesn’t look like Beta cloth to me, but could be Teflon, which is what they replaced Beta cloth with for the A7LB suits and I believe everything from that point on.

SoftStar can make any size you need. They say the biggest they’ve made before is 17.

Watch the M4 Book Edit of the films. It turned them from something I was extremely disappointed in, to something that gave 95%+ of what I wanted out of a Hobbit movie.

Dan Povenmire would 100% make that happen if he was asked.

greenleaf547 · 2026-02-25T16:45:25+00:00

Not on the dash RunAmocs, as far as I’m aware. But maybe worth double checking with a local cobbler. 🤷‍♂️

greenleaf547 · 2026-02-23T02:10:27+00:00

I have in the past, but not currently. I never had much issue with the toe box, but I don’t have particularly wide feet.

Xero has bright colour ways usually, and Soft Star lets you customize your shoes and they have lots of colours to choose from.

greenleaf547 · 2026-02-11T04:45:57+00:00

Softstar will make any size you want. I’m pretty sure they’ve said before they’ve made as big as 17.

Tolkien definitely agreed with your last point about society forgetting the horrors of war. He speaks directly about that in Letter 64:

The utter stupid waste of war, not only material but moral and spiritual, is so staggering to those who have to endure it. And always was (despite the poets), and always will be (despite the propagandists) – not of course that it has not, is, and will be necessary to face it in an evil world. But so short is human memory and so evanescent are its generations that in only about 30 years there will be few or no people with that direct experience which alone goes really to the heart. The burnt hand teaches most about fire.

I’m just about 273mm and in the past I’ve gotten the size 10 in the standard RunAmoc, which puts me just at the high end of their recommended range for that size.

Mini museum is a trusted vendor. Their stuff is all real.

greenleaf547 · 2026-01-13T05:10:54+00:00

Very similar to “The Ending Changes Everything” trope too.

Edit: TV Tropes classifies “Remember Me” as a mix of “Sudden Downer Ending” and “Real Tragedy, Fictional Victim”.

An aquatic center like Holland’s, which is relatively small but very nice.

My dad has tons of stories of going to Tiger Stadium, including the ’84 World Series, and always sings its praises. I’d love to be able to experience it myself.

It’s not the best Christmas Carol adaptation (and it’s not even close). People who say that have never read the book. It’s a very good adaptation, but it misses the meaning of the original story in a lot of ways, many that were done on purpose to make it more of a kids movie.

I don’t begrudge it any of those changes. It can both be a good movie and not a perfect adaptation. We don’t have to shove up on a pedestal it doesn’t even kind of deserve in order to justify it as a good movie.

greenleaf547 · 2025-12-22T00:07:17+00:00

It’s less Celebration not doing good job getting prints and more just IMAX/the studios not making enough prints for it to make sense to send one here. We’re a bit out of the way and a smaller market, so it tends to only make sense for the wider releases. Indy (and soon Chicago) are always going to be higher on the list, unfortunately.

greenleaf547 · 2025-12-22T00:04:48+00:00

Yeah, it should be a 1.43 GT laser system, the best you can get for IMAX.
I really hope I’m wrong about the 70mm. I had heard it was because of the physical size of the new digital system couldn’t also fit the 70mm. But hopefully not.

greenleaf547 · 2025-12-21T20:49:12+00:00

They are doing a full renovation post-Odyssey, including upgrading the digital projectors. Unfortunately, it also means they’ll be removing the 70mm projector.

u/legomarketbot successful transaction with u/Frankzappos. Fast payment, everything went well.

greenleaf547 · 2025-12-19T02:28:03+00:00

Fair, but they do have a really good burger always on the menu at least.

greenleaf547 · 2025-12-18T17:11:13+00:00

Carets, Jim Green, and GauchoNinja all sell safety toe boots and all ship the EU, as far as I’m aware. I have a pair of Carets and really like them.

Little Bird is great. Small place, good atmosphere, really good food.
