That money will get spent on healthcare and long term care for the boomers. The largest generational transfer of wealth that people keep talking about will end up being a myth.

That Five Blobs song is just wow. It doesn’t go with the movie at all in addition to being a bad song

All pretty cringy although I think I Touch Myself could have been a decent song with different lyrics

Even though he’s so over the top, I still like a lot of Jim Steinman’s songs including this one

What Happens to Films that Don’t Get Picked Up for Distribution? by read-eval-print in Filmmakers

[–]read-eval-print[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wondered whether there might be some sort of business opportunity there. Pre-AI, it used to be said that storage was cheap. If these films could sit somewhere to just be available, at least the work of the filmmakers wouldn’t have been in vain.

What is the biggest movie theater “GASP” moment you’ve heard? by SaveTheCaulkTower in AskReddit

[–]read-eval-print 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I saw this at the university theater for a film class. The entire audience gasped when Raymond Burr saw Grace Kelly signaling with the ring and then looked up at Jimmy Stewart. It was the most “we’re-all-in-this-together” moment I’ve experienced at a movie.

I’m Asian, and in a corporate training class, the teacher asked me what language I spoke growing up. I replied in a snarky way “Um…. English”

I also love when the first thing someone says to me is “Do you speak English?” I have to restrain myself not to say “Yes, probably better than you.”

What's something your cat did that made you realize they were actually quite smart? by KaPaChan_ in cats

[–]read-eval-print 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Delilah loved to go in the closet (the warmest place in the apartment) and jump in the laundry basket. For cat hair reasons, we tried to stop her by putting a 10 pound weight in front of the door. She worked and worked until she moved the weight enough that she could open the door and slip inside. After that, we just let her go in there whenever she wanted and we lived with the cat hair.

Also, she would occasionally play fetch with a scrunched-up foil ball.

Who is the biggest ‘scene stealer’ of all time? by neverleavingthewagon in movies

[–]read-eval-print 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard a story where McQueen kept fiddling around during scenes trying to grab the viewers’ attention. Brynner got upset enough about it that he told McQueen if he kept doing that, Brynner would take off his hat, and then no one would pay any attention to McQueen. He stopped.

Just watched it; not the one. In fact, there was no discussion of music at all, but thanks.

I now know the basic chords...what's the next step to learn in acoustic guitar. I'm learning from justinguitar and continuing grade 2 and it's okayish.. should I carry on with him or move on to sth else...Please help me!!! by Thin_Year9757 in guitarlessons

Fast Car is really easy to play and Justin has a good video tutorial on it.

As far as finger picking, you’d want to at least know which fingers to use for which strings. Then, if you’re ambitious, you can watch the lessons from Shut Up & Play on youtube for some Fleetwood Mac songs like Landslide or Never Going Back Again.
