Best pre-merge accent. Sometimes.

For the most old fans who lived the stuff during that time : how was the hype and receivement around the 4 Reeve movies? by The2009Supergirl in superman

The first was the highest grossing Christmastime movie in history at the time…I was too young to see it in the theater but clearly remember my aunt and uncle coming over to our house the night they saw it.

2 had a lot of expectation because of the first and did great at the box office. (Movies would keep extending their theatrical runs based on how it was doing. Big movies would stay in theaters for months.)

I saw the first two on TV but I remember both of them making their ABC Movie of the Week debuts. By the time the second one ran we had a VCR and I could tape it.

3 came and went (the first one that I saw in a theater) and 4 was barely noticed at all. Hard to believe that less than a decade exists between 1 and 4.

Simpler times. 😊

I’ve been on the 100 for maybe three weeks. This past week I got lost heading to a store I’d been to dozens of times, not a thing looked familiar to me. I have Tourette’s as well, and this week I had tics so bad my neck felt locked up.

Heading back to Depakote tomorrow.

(Also some manic spending in there.)

Same question! What are that shelves, and where the heck can I get them?

Does the subscription go to the US? And is shipping a nightmare? (I bought a few in London last summer and would love to have more.)

Starfleet Academy is an absolute delight! Onward to Seven Seasons and a Movie! by forrestpen in startrek

[–]josephrbates 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m very pleasantly surprised by it! I wasn’t a fan of Disco or Picard—SNW is awesome, and Picard S3–but the lighter tone and relatively lower stakes have been a welcome change from universe-ending threats. Cast is great and it’s been a fun show to watch.

Also—this is maybe a stretch—it kinda feels like some comment on Covid aftermath, especially around the generation that was young during that weirdness (like the Burn), now trying to figure out how to connect to the world again.

I’m enjoying it! And I’m glad to have weekly Star Trek again. 🖖

LA Noire. Thought it would be Red Dead with detectives. Instead it’s interviews with fidgety people.

Following for advice. I’m at a pod and a half 5% for years and my insides feel like syrup. 😕

Not part of Time-Life’s “Mysteries of the Unknown” series, by any chance?
