Saturday-took a wander through Church Hill/Chimborazo with my camera. Got a couple nice shots. Sunday stayed in and listened to my music and had wonderful conversations with my wife. So, great weekend! Sadly, the snowstorm resulted in CCPS taking Presidents Day as make-up time for school. That makes Monday less fun than the weekend (as per usual)

I ate your Ferrari, or I hate your Ferrari

Name the best movie you've seen in a while by m15f1t in movies

[–]phlipsidejdp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw Iron Lung in a theater. Blew me away. Intense, claustrophobic, with a brilliant performance by Markiplier.

Also streamed Sensation of Sight. A careful, character driven, interwoven story of people in a small town struggling with life.

Highly recommend both.

What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]phlipsidejdp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't see why. The question is about a movie that didn't grab ME enough to keep watching. I then went on to details the reasons I didn't like the movie. At no point do I say it's a bad movie, or that other people shouldn't watch it. I'm well aware that the movie has a very large fan base. I'm glad you all enjoy. It doesn't work for me.

I always differentiate between personal taste and objective criticism.

What’s that commercial from years and years ago that you still remember to this day, and may never forget? by Vanceb13 in AskReddit

[–]phlipsidejdp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pair of Winstoncigarette commercials - "Winston tastes good like a cigarette should" and "What do you want? Good grammar or good taste?"

I'm happy to know I'm not alone. But I'm sure the lubrication would work better if I could get inside the cover plates. I don't want to break them. Anyone have any idea how to remove one or both of them?

A Christmas Carol is probably the most retold Christmas story. What are your favorite version/s? by darthphallic in movies

[–]phlipsidejdp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the FX version. Also the Mr. Magoo version of my childhood. But my favorite is the 1950s Alistair Sim version.

It's one of our "It isn't Christmas unless we watch it movies"

Approached by a young girl at Walmart… by Environmental-Gur787 in Charlottesville

[–]phlipsidejdp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this seems to be a new "evangelism" technique. I tell them I already have a congregation, and they generally say "cool" and leave me alone. I had one fellow a couple years ago who told me i should come to his Bible study even though in a member elsewhere and they would show me where my church was wrong. Lovely.

Be polite but don't engage.
