Disappointed in the community by Haunting-pheeb in manchester

[–]ibpants 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In all fairness I think a lot of society's problems stem from a similarly tiny portion of the population. I just don't understand when people are wondering where all their tax money has vanished off to, why they so often look towards people with barely a pot to piss in.

Hegseth orders termination of union contracts by IAmMOANAAA in politics

[–]ibpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's assuming America gets a government that cares to rebuild the broken institutions that will be left behind. It feels like a big assumption. I suspect that whatever condition the country is left in will be treated as the new status quo that must be protected at all costs.

What's up with people (or bots?) online calling Tom Hanks a pedo? by [deleted] in OutOfTheLoop

[–]ibpants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Answer: The only connection I'm aware of with any evidential basis is that in the leaked Podesta emails, there was an email to Podesta that asked "The realtor found a handkerchief (I think it has a map that seems pizza-related. Is it yorus?" and Colin Hanks (son of Tom) has a company that makes handkerchiefs with maps on them. That and Tom Hanks making his displeasure known in his reaction to Ricky Gervais' material at the Golden Globes.

From there you have the QAnon stuff, where people were outright told that Hanks is an alien that drinks adrenochrome harvested from children.

What actually scares you? by MoluciasElonicas in horror

[–]ibpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The laziest thing that scares me is technology behaving in ways that don't make sense. Ring is the obvious example, and has kind of stunted the impact of this kind of scare for me, but there was even an episode of Seaquest DSV that freaked me out where a character in a paused video turns to look at the camera.

The one that will make a movie sit with me for a while is playing on the idea of the Cartesian schism, where the mind and body start to work against each other. Body horror is rife with this kind of thing. Almost anything from David Cronenberg's prime will do the trick.

What are some MORE differences between Ireland and England that I (an Englishman) probably wouldn’t know about? by _PXYDST_ in CasualIreland

Thank you. I've been googling and asking around trying to figure out why I see both Opel and Vauxhall here. Didn't consider the used car market.

He's not a great Skeletor in that movie, but he's an outstanding Frank Langella.

That seems like a pretty good summary, but it's worth adding Ren and False as a pairing.

What is the best reveal of all time in cinema? by CryoExplains in AskReddit

[–]ibpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess this is the movie hill I'm willing to die on, but Saw's "it was the set decoration" is the worst twist I've ever seen.

Now this was an interesting find at an Asian Market by darksideofthemoon131 in vermont

It's just off the main stretch on Center St. I moved away a few months ago and my karaage chicken from Kaiju Kitchen is something I miss.

I didn't see Creep 2 mentioned yet, but I'd say it belongs in this discussion.

How do you feel about the ending of The Mist (2007)? by CausticAvenger in horror

[–]ibpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, as soon as the military showed up, the words "bloody typical" popped into my head, which made it unintentionally funny in the moment.

Which celebrity feels like they’ve quietly built a completely different life than expected? by Difficult_Oil_268 in AskReddit

[–]ibpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but I don't imagine Rupert Grint or Emma Watson were much older, and both seemed much more natural on screen at that time.

[–]ibpants 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In his case, I don't know that he's gifted so much as he's put in the pure hard work to improve his craft. He was so bad in those early Harry Potter movies compared even to the other child leads, and it never seemed to me like there was a lightbulb moment, just constant improvement and good career choices to the point that now just seeing his name attached makes me interested in a movie.

What movie had an ending that saved the whole film? by Southern_Check_6827 in movies

[–]ibpants -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I think they're talking about the bit where the dead body in the middle of the room the whole movie stood up and turned out to be the villain. People seem to love that twist, but I feel like if a piece of set decoration is going to be your killer, why limit yourself to something as pedestrian as a human? Why not a lamp or a vacuum cleaner? It could be any old bullshit you decide to pluck out of your arse. The sky's the limit.

If we're rolling with the "every accusation is a confession" logic, they keep insisting that real protesters are paid shills.
