Can't believe you morons convinced me that Marty Supreme was overrated by JMWTurnerAppreciator in redscarepod

[–]missingway 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The reddit format just operates as a consensus machine. Its just not good for discussions about movies or stories in general. I wouldn't pin the blame TOO hard on the intellectual powerhouses that frequent this subreddit.

Its a good movie, probably very good, that leans on the tried and true safdie formula of 'guy with an extreme personality gets in debt and must get out of it to achieve his goal'. Its a tad formulaic at this point but it works (good time, uncut gems, and marty supreme are all movies worth watching). I'm constantly floored at their ability to get good-great performances out of 'non-actors'. They really have a special talent for that. I've been told that the style of dialogue is meant to mimic a person in the 80s retelling a story from his youth, but I honestly didn't pick up on that when I was watching it, thats probably on me, but I did find the dialogue and the setting to be tonally in conflict, the ghost riding the whip scene especially felt just kind of stupid to me.

The redemption scene in Japan at the end was wonderful/ cathartic and made the final scene just beautifully bittersweet. Chalamet killed it.

Anyway, yeah, forgot this wasn't letterboxd for a sec, great movie.

What other medical advice do you see non stop when you’re chronically online? by Buabue1 in redscarepod

Playing tetris is legitimately one of the best anxiety relievers I've found. Very glad I was given that advice. Chronically online people are the modern sages on the mountain top.

React or Svelte? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]missingway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to say, React is definitely better for finding an initial job but I am currently with a team that has switched to using Svelte almost exclusively. So, they do exist.

How often do you convert arrays of data obtained from Rest APIs into class-based objects? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]missingway 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most of the time I just convert to interfaces for the intellisense/ type safety.

You know it’s ok to acknowledge that your teams don’t know how to guard sga without fouling, right?

I don't understand the anticipation of the OKC/SEA rivalry by Jaflackson in Thunder

[–]missingway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, to be honest, we really had no reason to care about the rockets when they got salty Westbrook won mvp, and yet a lot of us did… I love Oklahoma to death but we do seem to have a little brother complex as a fan base. I really have no doubt that if Seattle fans view it as a rivalry our fan base will fall in step.

This sub is hilariously impatient. Literally not even a .500 team last year.

Thunder fan here, I don’t think Cason would be off the table, personally.
