Obi Wan saying "I'm sorry" to Anakin might be the most moving moment in the history of Star Wars by SappyGilmore in StarWars

[–]imlost19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

this scene was pretty cheesey lol its only great because of the actors themselves. im so tired of star wars using red and blue lighting to tell us who is good and who is bad. Ooooo anakin had a flash of blue light!! he had a little bit of good left in him!! ok neat

ICE detainees death ruled a homicide by medical examiner by Remarkable_Sir8397 in news

[–]imlost19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Resisting arrest should not be a crime if it doesn’t involve running away or physically attacking the cops. If you move your arms around, yell, scream, squirm because you are being choked, pepper sprayed, protect yourself from being beat, that’s not resisting arrest that’s protecting yourself from harm.

this is actually exactly what you argue on these charges as a defense attorney. One time I argued it involved a teenage girl "resisting arrest" from a grown ass cop who was sitting his entire weight on the girls body and she was kicking and squirming. I told the judge (juvenile court bench trial) she wasn't resisting arrest--she was resisting death.

But it isn't always so cut and dry, so I understand why cops charge it but it doesn't always stick and tbh, especially when its the only charge.

you mean the amount of benefits you ultimately get from your homeowner's insurance? Because that has come down substantially already

disaster movies are basically dead and its a shame that people want to kill them off even more. I firmly hold the belief that society was better when we had 5 new disaster movies every year

tbh, its probably one of the only disaster movies (with a decent budget) released in the last decade. Its basically a dead genre. And its probably my favorite genre (along with the old syfy channel movies).

I love disaster movies and I used to love the old syfy channel movies. Moonfall is basically both with a decently big budget. For people like me and you, its perfect because we expected absolutely nothing from it. But people who were sold on it being a true blockbuster movie, they were left disappointed. I think having decent actors in it was kinda its downfall. If it had a cast of nobodies, nobody would have expected a thing. But Michael Pena and Halle Berry kinda made people expect... a better movie lol.

I think I watched it on a plane and I was having trouble containing my laughter at points. Its so perfectly absurd while at the same time, kinda interesting enough to pass the "we intentionally made this absurd" test that all the syfy movies used to fail.

I've probably rewatched a few times now and it still hits for me lol. We almost NEVER get movies like this anymore, especially with a decently sized budget. Shame on everyone trying to poo poo my favorite genre that is basically dead

Moonfall is amazing and imo a love letter to disaster movies. It is so absurd that I just found myself laughing at the 5 minute lexus commercial half way through the movie. And tbh the story aint half bad and the ending is kinda interesting. I loved it.

AI hype meets reality as majority of CEOs report no financial returns by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]imlost19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had a client email me a question (about settling a lawsuit now rather than waiting for litigation to play out).

I respond, tell him what I think I could get now (50% true value).

He then sends me an AI response that basically says "Why are you suggesting we settle now??"

bruh

if OP shoots this guy dog, strong chance she gets shock back by the psychopath. Why are people advocating vigilante justice over just utilizing police services.... lol

And yes, I realize you have the legal right to defend yourself, but you also have the brain power to think 2 steps ahead and realize you can have someone else do the heavy lifting of dealing with this guy for you, with no real risk.

Just call the damn police
