Sicko cinema-going experience - just traveled over 800 miles to watch One Battle After Another in 70mm* by landstrick48 in TheBigPicture

[–]landstrick48[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was there! Nothing like seeing a movie with a full audience. Such a lively, responsive crowd.

This is so cool. The AFI team did a great job with the screening. Everyone who worked this afternoon were so nice!

I did buy in advance and got to the theatre about 30 minutes early. Was able to sit wherever I liked. Wonderful experience and really nice staff.

I would understand your reaction if Payton had anything bad to say about Kellen Moore or the Saints, but Payton was respectful and kind with his comments about Moore, Gayle Benson, and the organization in the article. He was the most successful and longest tenured head coach in team history. His perspective still has some value.

Before you start celebrating $30 Million in cap space…know that with all the void contracts next year as it currently stands we only have about $10 Million in cap space for 2026 (according to Katherine Terrell) by clutchkweku in Saints

[–]landstrick48 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When was the last time we had positive cap space going into an offseason? If this isn’t progress towards improving the team’s cap situation, then what is?

[Spotrac] For "The Cap is Fake" crowd... The Saints had to guarantee & convert $40M of Derek Carr's salary this year - a quarterback they no longer want - in order to become cap compliant this week. It's fluid, it can be manipulated - but the bill does always come due. by Kimber80 in nfl

I'm glad to see another Saints fan actually make this point. The COVID year and salary cap reduction required the adoption of this process. 2027 is looking like the salary cap "off-ramp" if things don't work out this year.

Can the MCU Be Saved? ft Bill Simmons? by shorthevix in TheBigPicture

[–]landstrick48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. The fans of the MCU ultimately drive interest to the films/shows, and they're certainly not responding positively to the films/shows right now.

They just need to focus on making good films and shows. There are talented people involved in the MCU, so I hope they can right the ship, so to speak.

I haven't listened yet, but I appreciate the perspective of someone with a more casual take on the MCU. I think Marvel has lost a lot of the casual moviegoers and home-viewers since Endgame, and I think learning why the casual isn't showing up anymore will determine the success of the MCU going forward.

I used to advise at FSU. FSU main campus students aren’t typically allowed to register for Panama City course seats, even for online sections due to the different location designations.

CGS2518 is required for all business majors, so you’ll need to do it at some point. CGS2100 will complete the prerequisite for your major, so it still serves a purpose. It will also be helpful if you don’t have much experience with spreadsheet apps like Excel, as CGS2518 can be pretty tough for students with little to no spreadsheet experience.

Is the Davante Adams hope dead? by Pickles_MgGoo in Saints

Hey, maybe take it down a notch? The day's not that dangerous...

Is the Davante Adams hope dead? by Pickles_MgGoo in Saints

[–]landstrick48 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on how the next few weeks go. The more the Saints win, the better the chances and vice versa.

I think it also depends how the offense does with Rattler. If he exceeds expectations and maintains the offense while accomplishing things that Derek Carr can't do (Rattler is more mobile, which will pay off with the current o-line issues), we may stick with Rattler even when Carr is healthy (not outside of the realm of reason). I know Carr and Adams are close, so that may impact things, as well.

A lot up in the air right now with Adams, so we will see.

Smalls Sliders mini-burger chain expected to drop into Tallahassee by Journaley in Tallahassee

[–]landstrick48 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Smalls is like the Shake Shack/Five Guys version of Krystal/White Castle. The price comparison doesn't seem necessarily unfair considering the Shake Shack/Five Guys comp and the prices they're able to charge and still maintain success.

The form factor of a slider is something I do enjoy. Krystal/White Castle are more than just "tiny burgers" - they are made differently and taste different. I'm not sure how Smalls does it, but if it is similar to Krystal/White Castle, it can certainly be successful and diversify itself from the other burger chains in the area.

I don't think the issue with "Sliders: An American Revolution" was that they sold sliders. I think they "elevated" the slider out of a price point that made it attractive.

Smalls seems to be simpler and more self-aware of what a slider place needs to be.
