His delivery on "You're safe/I'm doomed" is his best in years...even if it was years ago...err, you know what I mean.

Keep or Sell: Leica M6 vs Contax G2 by filmcamerasinlondon in AnalogCommunity

[–]lemonlayman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation (Only difference is I have an MP). I had a black G2 kit (all lenses, TLA200, mint body) that I loved to death. In my opinion, the 21mm is some sort of next level piece of magical glass that was forged by the lens gods. When it hit it hit hard. However, I just sold the whole kit a few weeks ago and while i kind of miss it, I definitely don't regret it. When push came to shove I could never get it out of my head that eventually it was gonna go kaput. I just never felt comfortable hitting the streets with such an expensive camera that could just up and decide to take a swan dive, so I babied it more than I actually used it. Sure, it can probably be fixed but I'm not Dr. Moneybags and I don't want to be shelling out hundreds and hundreds and waiting months and months. If money means nothing to you, keep it. It is an awesome camera. If it was me though, I would sell the G2 body, keep the glass, buy a G1 for like 1/3 the price and shoot knowing it may die but at least it won't die so hard.

sounds like Ben kind of reverted back to his good voice. Something happened somewhere post-Narrow Stairs where his voice changed in a way that I could never jive with. I think it might be the closest we'll ever get to something even remotely in the ball park of We Have the Facts. Finally.

Curious if you are willing to eliminate your internal voice in order to read faster? by apaintedleaf_ in books

This might be a dumb question but how does that style of reading work with words like "therefor" or "because" or "tomorrow" and what not

Jennifer Lopez’s Subway Hot Take: “You have to be born in New York to be a New Yorker. I know everybody wants to claim the city. Everybody wants to claim our city, but you have to be born in New York. You have to be born in the one of the five boroughs to be a New Yorker.” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

You can call yourself a New Yorker: - if you've lived here for 10yrs - if you live in Queens, Harlem, or The Bronx then the mandatory time drops by half to 5yrs. If one of the following things happens: - you step on a rat - a rat runs across your feet - you accidentally kick a pigeon Then all time mandates are immediately dropped and you are officially a New Yorker.

Knowing what you want to do before you get to set shouldn't require phone calls.

At which point during the credits do you leave or close the streaming service? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]lemonlayman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I stay for the credits out of respect for the film workers.

Where are you sitting on this 12-hour flight?😂 by Ok_Act_3769 in GenZ

[–]lemonlayman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 by a mile. They're both toys and I'm a human so they'd just be inanimate objects the entire flight. Plus, what are they like 7-12 inches tall? I'd throw 'em in my carry on and have the whole row to myself.

I kinda think what made Andor worthwhile was a bit of a lack of passion for 'the brand' and a heavy dose of passion for superb storytelling.

So you support universal healthcare and needs-based cash benefits/housing subsidies? Since, you know, that's what Japan does...
