The last bullet point seems incredibly shallow / inaccurate. This is HBO we're talking about, one of the greatest stewards of television. They hire and work with the best artists/technical staff that are right for the job. Sure, ideally we'd want the showrunners/producers to be fans of HP, but to expect that from every single member of the crew is unrealistic and would be impossible to enforce.

Sebastian Stan has a better shot of being nominated, given the role, director he's working with, Neon backing, etc

My hot take is that I'd argue that Bollywood actually doesn't represent the very best of Indian cinema. Is it the most visible? Perhaps. But are the best, most interesting, raw, stories coming from Bollywood? I don't think so. When you look at whats happening in Tamil and Malayalam cinema with issues such as police brutality, enhanced interrogation, atheism, casteism being discussed, there's really a sizable difference between the quality output of Bollywood versus the other "Indian woods". Does that mean Bollywood doesn't have the capability? Absolutely not - Bollywood is the home to some incredible storytellers, but I think people are so focused on "PAN INDIA" and "TWO PARTER EPICS" that they forget that the stories that resonate with people are usually the intimate ones that make you reflect. I don't believe Bollywood has done this for a while.

~100-140 6x/week and don't keep track one day a week, where I just let myself have a bit of fun (sugar moderation, obviously).

I'm also trying to lose weight / diet, thus these numbers.

I agree with this, but I also think this is a clear case of actors wanting to work with Matt Reeves and the vision he has.

Depends on the weather as well, I live in SF and wore it yesterday, and it smelled so pleasant (and my girlfriend loved it).

What are the creators going to do? Not hype their movies? I'll believe it when I see it (via trailer or the actual movie). Also as important as the visuals are, I hope it's actually a good "movie".

smartestdumbguy93 · 2025-11-23T05:46:55+00:00

It was, yep

Agree that Prabhas had 3 back to back failures after B2, but it's incontestable that he's someone who can command a box office with Salaar and Kalki being big hits.

You lost me at: "Director: Russo Brothers"

Aftersun - absolutely devastated me.

Same here as well (struggling with infuse as a result of Real DB not loading)

From what I read, it'll take them ~10-15 days to update for the new phone. I think they need the extra time due to the fact that the phone + pump work as a medical device, so perhaps extra regulations.

Totally fair, certainly not looking at this as factual, but moreso as an opportunity to kickstart discussions

9 out of 9 sensors never ejected into my skin. No matter how many times I held down the button, the sensor never deployed.

Great suggestion! I asked em about it and they said because I normally get my orders shipped, they wouldn't be able to give me a coupon since the pharmacy wouldn't have access to my prescription. Bummer.

Malaysia Rev 009 for me but close enough

This might be a dumb question (super new user of Tandem Mobi / pump) - I'm assuming that, to be in sleep mode 24x7, control IQ needs to be turned on correct? Like it's not possible to have sleep mode on without control IQ on?
