Incorrect.
Well, I’m sure for the good-hearted fans, it won’t. I thought it was pretty funny, but the whole time I was rolling my eyes internally, in anticipation of the pigheaded negativity crowd that you see in general fake-fandom. Hopefully I’m wrong and they just accept him, but I don’t think I’m making too much of a leap in…
I’ve been on a few message boards today and the sight of the new Doctor playing a very athletic game of catch in his underwear doesn’t seem to have turned many people off. Quite the opposite, actually.
Saw it yesterday with Jr Bear - he’s 10 and had no qualms about a super hero movie starring women. I will say I thought it was perfectly fine. There were some quirky edits - like I recall a specific one where the camera cut to a direct headshot of Brie Larson while she said like 3 words then cut elsewhere. It was…
Hey give them some credit. It doesn’t JUST turn it back into a video, it turns it into a horrifying monstrosity!
AI benchmark for what? If AI is going to help us cure disease or stop hunger, I’m all for it. but this kinda shit is pretty much the worst use case for AI, whether it’s “good” or not. Using AI for creative work is a fool’s errand, and even if it becomes competent, it will be bad for humans in the long run.
This computer has an unhealthy fixation on morphing people into other people. It’s surrealist in a bad way.
The best part of Miracle Workers is watching a bunch of fun actors having a hell of a time with each other.
“I’d buy another ticket to see her try that stunt on Yelena.”
I agree that it’s a necessity for structural safety and traffic flow, but I think the main complaint is why did they do it weeks before the race? There’s going to be a lot of tourists flowing through there with no knowledge of the upcoming F1 race. They want their pictures of the strip and are going to be disappointed…
People here don’t have small bladders. People here have regular bladders. Yours is either exceptionally large or you are severely dehydrated. Most people pee 6-7 times a day.
I’m usually pretty good about not needing to pee all the time, but give me a half-gallon of caffeinated sugar water to suck on during the show, and odds are pretty high I’m gonna need a break sooner than later.
And you know what I do when I go to a 3+ hour stage performance and need to pee? I wait for the fucking intermission and go then.
My last pee emergency was Knives Out. I can usually go 2 hours and 10 minutes just fine, but I foolishly didn’t empty my bladder beforehand and it’s really not a movie you want to miss any part of, so the last 20 minutes were excruciating. I rocketed out of the theater as soon as the screen faded to black, which is a…
So what are theaters supposed to do, then? Replace the seats with toilets?
I fully support intermissions, for all kinds of things.
I recently saw Tool, who I remind you have a long show with a lot of long songs. Since they kind of don’t bother with the usual rock show pageantry of an encore, they just put in a proper intermission before the final songs (which, combined, usually take half an…
Reasons to hit pause on a long ass watch at home:
1. Hungry
2. Thirsty
3. Need to cook something
4. Need to order something
5. Receiving an order
6. Receiving a phone call
7. Bathroom break
8. 2nd bathroom break because you’ve been sitting there for so long
None of this can be avoided for five hours without a requirement of…
As someone who can pretty easily go 8-10 waking hours without peeing, I don’t need intermissions, but I wouldn’t necessarily mind them. I certainly don’t see how independent theaters choosing to hit pause for their customers is a violation of anything. It feels like any language in the licensing agreement being used…
“People say it’s three hours, but come on, you can sit in front of the TV and watch something for five hours...”
