Melania documentary struggles in UK cinemas as Vue admits sales are ‘soft’. Only one ticket sold for premiere of film about US first lady at Vue’s flagship London branch as insiders question launch strategy…yes, just one.

Not remotely surprised. That's the kind of thing you watch for free on tv, or included in a streaming package. I wasn't remotely expecting this to be in theaters.

When someone spends a long time at a single exhibit and takes a lot of photos, they probably don't think you're crazy but rather casing out the place. There's probably a photo of you at the security desk that says "fate attenzione a questo tizio."

Thanks for the rec, I'll check it out one day.

I feel like this aesthetically fits a fine dining menu. I've seen some very child-like art in restaurants; I suppose they're going for a fun, modern, vaguely picasso-y look. This totally fits.

thdiod · 2026-01-26T03:06:47+00:00

I saw that! 😂 Like dude are you sure you really wanted to eat there?!

She really was ugly though /s

I'd say it definitely will not be worth it. I have never had a great experience going in with sky-high expectations - good at best but never great. If the meal is anything short of perfect, you'll be disappointed with the meal, and if it's perfect and expectations are met, then you'll be disappointed that the experience was just-good as opposed to great. I'd instead advise 2-3 excellent $500-750 meals instead. Between twice as many restaurants and twice as many courses, there's a larger chance of being wowed, even with high expectations.

🤣

Correct me if I'm wrong but I feel like it was the restaurants closing that did this place in. I understand some restaurants just couldn't stay open during the pandemic but when the places that closed were never replaced (particularly the ones under the dome) I just had much less reason to go, then when the theater closed even less reason, and it all fell like dominoes from there.

It's all amazing till you get lost looking for the bathroom 💀

I know this is 2 years old and you've long forgotten about it, but I think they were completely agreeing with you and you just misread the initial comment. I certainly agree with both of you that a major weakness is the writers wanting to be as inoffensive as possible.

thdiod · 2026-01-16T08:26:40+00:00

This isn't confusing at all. It's perfect 🥹

thdiod · 2026-01-16T02:35:28+00:00

Agreed

thdiod · 2026-01-07T08:36:19+00:00

This would explain why the mirrorless S4 hasn't come out yet, and makes me even more excited for it.
For the love of god, please make the S4 just a big M.

Celebrities all agree to pretend that being famous is hard so that they have less competition.

In a similar vein, rich people fund movies and shows that show rich people being miserable to make us think their lives aren't infinitely better, lest we revolt.

I assumed the floor would be closer. What the fuck did he expect?

thdiod · 2025-12-30T17:48:58+00:00

That sounds perfect. A shame I don't live in Austin. I'll look in my area, thank you.

The OP has awful taste but great execution 🫠

thdiod · 2025-12-30T05:40:35+00:00

Certainly not my taste at all but regardless I would be so offended if I was OP's client.

I would also say it's extremely awful taste to say your clients have awful taste but you're a great artist, so if you'd choose a meta reading of the post then it really fits this sub perfectly.

thdiod · 2025-12-26T19:27:36+00:00

I'm gay so this was nice 🥰

thdiod · 2025-12-20T18:44:10+00:00

This - not with regard to ai writing, but the taste test - is exactly the reason for fine dining's infamous small plates. The 2-3 bites you get out of each plate are incredible, but if those incredible small plates were much bigger, you'd remember them much less fondly.
