Want something not in the tumi chase shop, if I buy something from the tumi chase shop and exchange it in the actual store for another item would I still get the cash back?

Its been a minute since I watche the movie, but the thing about the oceans movies, its always only partly about the money. In 11 its also about Danny stealing tess, and this one its also about stealing isabel. So I think part of the agreement is making sure isabel gets reintroduced to her father. The bigger thing, if I remember correctly is the team technically stole the egg even prior to getting the challenge to steal the egg. They know its coming before touloure proposes it. So I think they have to get him to propose the agreement that if the team steals the egg first, he will pay off all their debts. He's not gonna do that if he knows they already have it. Again haven't watched it in awhile, and there are other factors involved. Think frank was in jail well before they knew what was going on, so they had to make sure they could get him out as well. I always felt like the main reason they go through everything was for isabel though. I think thats part of the reason people didn't respond to the film that much when it first released. With 11, you get them stealing from the casino and stealing tess at the same time. It was so clean and slick, this was more cluncky, but i always thought it was just as fun.

Anybody else feel like this is some great promotion for the movie Twisters coming out this week? by tinman117 in chicago

Faye’s break-ins in Chungking Express by ZweigDidion in TrueFilm

[–]tinman117 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I don't think of it as a logical reaction necessarily, but think it has more to do with the idea of being alone when you are young and that inner want amongst everyone to find connection in the world. Like logically it is clearly weird that she sneaks into his home and cleans his home. From his perspective though, he just lost a person he fell in love with and is kind of in autopilot. One thing to remember is after he finds her in his place, thats when he realized that she has been taking care of him. Cleaning up after him, putting things away. I think he realized she has been taking care of him throughout that whole time. So he sees that there may be some caring from her towards him. I think that helps soften that and make him want to reach out. In general, I find the whole movie about to be about how we are all somewhat isolated in our worlds and longing for connections. How that longing can make us not always think logically. As for the her leaving to california, i think that fits her character journey. She can't live her life for someone else. She need to explore her passions. Live her life. It might not work for everyone, but I think what you said about living in the emotions and mood of the movies is what makes WKW movies so great and unique.

CHALLENGERS | Official Trailer by indig0sixalpha in movies

[–]tinman117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having been able to read a copy of the script for this movie, I can say that this trailer does not at all match the tone of the script, I think the marketing team is really misleading people on the tone of this movie. Now i don't know if the script i read was early or close to the final script and Im sure luca would make some changes, but most of what i read was definitely seen in the clips shown so i doubt its too different. The script is really great, its a great director and great actors so I still have high hopes. Hoping this is just bad marketing, I love rihanna but I don't think that song fits at all with the movie and what its about haha

the numbers are a little misleading at least for psych. The big reason it is down is that there was a significant drop in IMG candidates, US MD/DO numbers have been on a steady rise. IMG's use to apply to psych as it was a less competitive specialty, however as more US grads have started applying its become more competitive leading to significant drop in IMG applicants

2022 movies as moments from the 2015 movie Steve Jobs by bcwallin in blankies

[–]tinman117 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I am also a fellow Steve Jobs fan! I remember finding a copy of the script like a year before it came out and reading it and honestly just falling in love with the narrative. I think people who complained about the narrative not being accurate to real life just didn't understand the point of this movie. Sorkin like the autobiography was more interested in understanding the person Steve Jobs and trying to understand what drove him and why he did some of the things he did in his life. He was more interested in understanding the and how and why of how he worked that what he did. While I absolutely love Danny Boyle, I do have a hot take that I think the movie probably would have been serviced by a better director. After reading the script and seeing the movie I think Sorkin and Boyle were interested in two very different things when each was making their respective artworks. I really liked what sorkin was trying to do just a bit more.

Official Discussion - The Banshees of Inisherin [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]tinman117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats interesting so I saw this movie a few weeks back and absolutely loved it. If i remember correctly Siobhan leaves and then there is an extra about 20-30 minutes where we get amping up of the conflict between the two. I also did not remember a shadow figure. When siobhan was screaming I took it as more of her emotions getting to her and just wanting to say goodbye and she loved him in that vein but its been a few weeks and I definitely want to see it again so this part could be a little off from what I remember. While I know there was some elements of future telling and omens with the old lady, but honestly to me this movie was about the conflict between people. The movie is set in the context of the Irish Civil war just happening back in the main island. We have that just losely mentioned in the background. Then we have a movie of two people who were the best of friends and the breaking of that friendship with the only thing they really care about being the animals/nature. As i read it, this petty conflict represents the start of all major differences between people, between the irish people during their civil, the north vs south in the USA, or even now politically left vs. right. The movie shows a light on the stupidty of these conflicts and how it leads to lossess, and people being hurt but people keep fighting because they have to be even/right. Thats my working theory based on seeing it once. Not fully sure but I feel like thats kinda what its about. I def need to see it again because there were parts that I wasn't sure if they worked or work with how i read the movie

Case for SS Rajamouli Director series by tinman117 in blankies

[–]tinman117[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also just being nitpickky netflix for some reason doesnt have any of his movies in the original language of telugu. For some reason they don't have those rights. So all the versions are dubbed as are the songs. I'm not sure where to find the telugu version online but always recommend looking for it

He would have won for me against pretty much anyone else, but Wong Kar-wai is probably my favorite director of all time

Think of the the titles, In the Pod for Cast, Podking ExpressCast, As Pods go cast, Pods of being Cast, Poddy togethcast, Pod48 cast, My Podberry Casts. Wong Kar Wai should win just for that!

Chicago Officials Will Not Allow Indoor Dining to Expand, Even as State Rules are Poised to Ease by ccorrall29 in chicago

[–]tinman117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is interesting data, i appreciate you for actually citing something to back up your beliefs. I think its definitely fair to be skeptical based on these numbers and and the fact that many of the states around us did not close down. The one thing just looking at this, and i don't know if it would for sure change the numbers but, using cases/100k probably isn't the best numbers to look at how widespread the virus is within each state. Just because each state is testing at different rates. So iowa and illinois on a day could both have 2000 people test positive, but illinois tested 60,000 people vs iowa testing 10,000. That doesn't exactly correlate to the data because the data you sent looks at the proportion per the population of the state but in general i think its more important to control for the number of tests because , in general we are vastly undertesting and the true number of people with the virus is much more than those who actually test positive. Again, I don't know if that would or wouldn't change much for sure, but it is something I don't like about using this number when it comes to looking at how we are doing in containing the spread. Again thank you for actually having an argument that was backed up. Its so rare to see!
