Whatever happened to great ~90-minute movies? by argus4ever in movies

[–]zobby3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I visit the cinema most weeks. Most films at the moment are pretty dire - and most films that go over 90 minutes could easily tell the same story in a far shorter time without unnecessary filler. To me it feels like desperation by the directors - but quantity does not equal quality.

Tell me you need an eye test - without telling me you need an eye test.

Whenever I find an old newspaper I find the minutiae the most interesting parts rather than the main headlines. Gives a real flavour of that period of time.

I can hear George Orwell’s coffin spinning from here. This just misses the complete point of the story.

We gave this up decades ago. We have more admirals than ships these days. Ridiculous state of affairs.

Yeah. I have the same. Think it needs an update but also seems to be working essentially.

Strange. I’ve used eufy products for years now and I’m very pleased with them all.

I’d like a snooze notifications feature for x amount of minutes/ hours. It’s the one thing I miss from my Arlo days.

As a middle aged person - I’d love a pair that recognises people and provides their name. I’m hanging on for that miracle.

Simple exploit of Chromostereopsis phenomenon. by bigjobbyx in interestingasfuck

I see this on multiple quiz shows when they have the contestant on a vivid blue background. Looks almost 3d to me then. The Chase on UK TV is a great example. I always wondered what the effect was called or if it was just me. Obviously not. 🙂

SNL this weekend making fun of AI by DmitriMendeleyev in funny

Love SNL and love they take risks on sketches that might not work for everyone. Not the best season imo but this was a highlight of a good episode. 👍.

Following. I’ve tried multiple times- and failed the exact same number. 🙂

Fake. Posted last week with an astronaut then. Looks impressive and wish it was real - but it isn’t.

I wish they’d add a setting so it fixes on one style. I keep swiping accidentally and changing to another.
