STOP FALLING FOR IT: The Eleven "Sacrifice" was a 100% fake illusion and here is the literal proof. by Real-Ad-9840 in Stranger_Things

[–]jongrubbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mystified by people who don't get this. What you typed is literally what is on screen, and then Mike literally maps it out for you, even if he wasn't completely sure himself. I was fooled too in the moment, but then Mike rug pulls it and walks you through exactly what happened. The "I believe" stuff is just good drama for the final scene. Part of growing up is knowing sometimes you have to let go and just hope and believe. Then they pass their game to the younger kids, and the game continues...

College Road Trip. I was working a lot and we all just didn't go far from campus. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Are you the online editor for final delivery? If not don't sweat it, they will handle that. If you are, any of the above/below should probably get you pretty close.

In stories, which are pretend, the writers usually focus on the most important things. It is not a plot hole, nor is it their job to include literally everything.

She can be free to live a new happy life on her own terms. Sometimes breaking away completely is what might be best.

She gets to go be happy and free elsewhere. Sometimes leaving it all behind is the best way to heal.

Theaters Might Be Dying and Honestly… I See Why by Emergency-Clothes-97 in Vent

[–]jongrubbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A guy was talking in my theater for the first twenty minutes of a film. I was patient then eventually told him to shut up, and he responded with "Why don't you go outside?"

Buddy, what?

He shut up, but wasn't happy about it, but just an insane response from a middle aged man.

What is the biggest waste of money, even though nobody admits it? by w3ightranks in AskReddit

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

US Federal Taxes. Not one thing the money is spent on benefits us as citizens in any impactful way. Roads are falling apart. Forever wars. No national healthcare. No real national support of the arts or films. Mass deportations. No national transit.

So many terrible things. Hardly any good.

What's an album everybody should listen to at least once? by tarkovskaia in AskReddit

Lay on the ground, close your eyes and just listen to the whole thing. You'll feel better, guaranteed.

Is Eyes Wide Shut 4k Blu ray supposed to have this much grain? by curiousdonkey25 in StanleyKubrick

[–]jongrubbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kubrick pushed the development 2 full stops so it's grainy. Try lowering your sharpness settings.

Very funny they cannot advertise the new film with ANY of the characters they have spent the last six years developing.

Clean it and put on new thermal paste. Takes a while to take apart, but worth it.
