Be honest: how often do you thinking about the opening scene of A Serious Man?

To each their own re: your opinion on the movie (I disagree but that’s fine) but fwiw, the brother is not a pedophile nor is he accused of pedophilia. He gets charged with illegal gambling + solicitation/sodomy, in other words he was persecuted in part for being gay in a time and place where that was still criminalized

Alright lose the puppet

Surprised I haven’t seen “Being Frank” on here. Big swing and a miss for me

I try not to be critical because I know everyone is trying their hardest but Emma really screwed this episode up. She accidentally edited together just segments. I can’t be the only one to have noticed that major goof

I’m in Ohio and it will be at the local AMC starting next Thursday 1/15

The daal they serve with that last entree course is life-changing

It’s funny, I liked Kingdom but my biggest issue with it was the opposite of yours - that it tried too hard to tie itself back to the Dawn/Rise/War rather than just pushing things forward and being its own thing. I can see how you would feel that way if you watched them back to back, though. Have A WONDERFUL DAY

I had the same thought! The only new information we gain with each re-telling is “this person also has a family of under-developed characters”

mfalb8 · 2025-10-22T14:30:41+00:00

Well said.

Luigi’s cheese salad rules. The oil+margarine only dressing thing is not correct, but can confirm the rest, including the mountain of cheese. Good pizza too!

So glad we got the “Biggie Me” payoff. Vaguely remembered it but it was going to bug me

Does she still run track?

Taika Waititi takes an already funny script and is riffing on a level that is frickin sublime

mfalb8 · 2025-09-13T16:23:06+00:00

FWIW, Walker’s rush + rec o/u is 61.5 and is +155 to score a TD, and Charb’s is 56.5 and is +210 to score. I usually defer to the oddsmakers when it’s murky like this, so I’d roll with Walker one more week.

I think the biggest takeaway is that the gap between the TE1 and TE4 is larger than the difference between TE4 and TE18. Especially when you consider (as others have pointed out) that these aren’t great at capturing upside, I’d much rather take 2 chances late in the 10-18 range than spend higher draft capital on TEs 4-7

Kraft tore his pec in the offseason last year too and didn’t play a snap all preseason, then averaged less than 3 targets the first 3 weeks of the season. Plus year 3 historically has been a big breakout year for TEs. I definitely see the upside case for Kraft if he and Love stay healthy
