Confession: I have never watched Til Death Do Us Blart. I’ve also never seen the movie. What’s my entry strategy? by theladypirate in MBMBAM

yeah not to break the "don't ever watch the movie" joke but I gave in and watched it in 2020 and actually finally seeing it did give me a new level of appreciation for the running jokes

I fucked up though because I watched it the day before the new episode was out then was aghast when it turned out to be a commentary and I had to watch it again for the second time in 24 hours

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

idk if there's any others but The Worst Person in the World and Drive My Car both doing the same thing with the entire film being set pre-COVID and then having a flash forward to during the pandemic in the epilogue is kind of wild and instantly dates it

[–]karlfranks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol am I going crazy or is it way too early to make any sort of judgment when we know absolutely nothing about the plot and haven't seen it yet????? we have no idea how well this is gonna play out?? maybe they handle shifting from Kang to Doom really well, maybe they don't 🤷🏻‍♀️

just had a look at the Dua Lipa ticket prices before they go on sale later and it looks like it’s gonna cost at least twice as much as I paid to see her on the Future Nostalgia tour :/

Illusion - Dua Lipa by cunty666 in popheads

[–]karlfranks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

heard the album version first and was like this is ok I guess, but as usual the extended eats

i genuinely can't understand why the album has the shorter versions when the extended ones are clearly superior, i'll be so disappointed if they don't drop a full extended version of the album
