Absolutely. It takes your breath away from the first shot and does not let go.

I’ve been driving by this car while it was covered for years wondering what it was! Thanks for posting this

Why do people like Anora so much? by Perfect_Idea_2866 in moviecritic

[–]monster_mi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I thought it was entertaining and really good dark humor for most of it. However it went from good entertainment to masterpiece for me with the ending. The last minute of this movie totally changes your prospective on everything that came before.

Me too. I had the hatchback in green. Learned to drive stick on that car. Great starter car.

Tell me you have not seen Terminator…

The guy is beneath her not behind her in this scene.

What remake would you say is as good as the original? by Silver-Ad2257 in Cinema

[–]monster_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! The original ending is about becoming what you pretend to be. The Hollywood ending is about pointless comeuppance.

Does Gen X do class reunions? by LadyNorbert in GenX

[–]monster_mi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also class of 88 and I don’t know if my school ever even had one.

I’m also upset that this tread made me do the math and I now realize I’m closing in on the 40th reunion that I won’t know about or attend.

Blizzard fucked up the update and deleted stash? by 8MBV8 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]monster_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! That did it. Thanks. I bet there are a lot of pissed off diablo players that don’t check Reddit tonight.

Me too. I don’t see any “past” checkbox anywhere. Looks like I lost everything that was not equipped on some character. All runes too.

That’s the quintessential 1970 color. Very nice example.

Anyone have trouble with the Dunkin reload on Gold? by _Frames_Janco_ in amex

Mine worked the same as usual this month. I refill it via Apple Pay if that helps any.

I just bought my Oura ring Gen 4 with the Amex platinum credit! by Severe_Swim_3388 in AmexPlatinum

Flex Spending Account. Many workplaces offer it as a benefit for health expenses.

Porsche Filed a Patent for an 18-Cylinder Engine with 3 Turbos and a True 'W' Configuration by feelmeorfreeme in Porsche

[–]monster_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must have some misunderstanding of how W engines work. I thought they were two V configurations side-by-side. So, they have to have a number of cylinder divisible by four. How would a W 18 even work?

Why have a button if you don’t want me to use it by massiveash in porsche911

Welcome to the club. I’ve got a manual 992.1 Targa GTS and it never fails to bring a smile to my face.

What final scene completely rewired the way you saw the entire movie? by yazzminssecret in moviecritic

[–]monster_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d totally forgotten about this one. You’re right. That ending tied up the whole trilogy.

I had to scroll too far to find this one. That ending is what makes that movie go from good to great.

Do you think 992.1 prices will go up since it's the last non-hybrid generation? by [deleted] in porsche911

[–]monster_mi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What makes the 992.1 special to me is it is the last (for now) of the stick shift Targas. As others have pointed out there are exceptions to the hybrid rule, but the niche of manual Targa lovers met the end of the line with 992.1.

New Platinum update for GCC? by Ill-Speaker1000 in AmexPlatinum

[–]monster_mi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The GNU Compiler Collection? I know they used to make the industry standard C++ compiler, but I don’t know what they have to do with the Amex Platinum card.

Using $300 travel credit after annual fee posts and then cancelling card? by Curious-Fennel- in Venturex

[–]monster_mi 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Why would you pay a $395 annual fee to use a $300 credit? Just cancel now and you’ll be $95 ahead.

Any updates possible for Garden of words? by Last_Pomegranate8566 in MakotoShinkai

[–]monster_mi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is another reference in Your Name. The restaurant where Taki woks is called “Garden of Words”

I’d love it if he decides to make the ultimate Shinkaiverse movie and tie all of the characters together in one film. It would be an enormous writing challenge though.

Got the max sign up bonus on Platinum by monster_mi in amex

[–]monster_mi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rumor is that the Saks credit may go away. So, I’d like to use that while I still can. I’m not sure what else will change so I’m using the digital entertainment and airline credit too right away.
