I’d have to go with A Simple Plan as my favorite example of this genre. No Country is the superior movie but Llewelyn outkicks his coverage too early in the film to play a role in its outcome.

Had an exchange with someone on another thread about this very topic - there was a BOOK article yesterday! I hesitate to become optimistic given the protracted trends but can’t really help myself.
Sidebar personal hangup here. As far back as Porkins I’ve wondered how people living in tight situations manage to end up obese. I like Cherry fine as an actor but we’re talking about people who have to be living on slim rations, yet he goes 250?
Even before the sale there was the occasional thoughtful article poking through, so maybe if Paste isn’t trying to turn it into a pop culture Barstool like the last owners then there’s hope going forward.
Nailed it.
Suppose that’s what I get looking to a drongo like you for assistance.
Actually my favorite flex is someone saying offhandedly they went to school “in Boston,” which is barely-veiled code for Harvard. So they can both let you know they went to Harvard and be so tactful as to avoid remarking explicitly upon your inferiority.
1. That was my takeaway as well (Bellona: “who?”)
Do you know any Native Americans who can give us the green light on their version?
Don’t Disney and Luxembourg have about the same number of people?

Doubtful. They were released two years apart and the whole point of horror films seems to be film cheaply and get them on the screen quickly. But based upon his three projects between the two movies, Animal House didn’t immediately launch him to leading status.
That’s actually a very fair observation. A big part of their collective problem was they were busybodies with poor instincts who didn’t know when to leave things well enough alone.
He also understands that being willing to lampoon yourself a bit goes a long way towards ingratiating yourself with audiences. Johnson and Diesel? Not so much.
Agree, if mostly because the gradual upsizing of the Altima killed off the iconic Maxima. Once upon a time you had Sentra, Altima, Maxima covering three size and price ranges and all was right with the world.
There’s also the value of productivity during that time if it’s for work. I live in Houston and we take higher-end bus service to places like Austin and San Antonio pretty regularly because that’s 3 hours with laptops connected to wifi that are about as good as being in the office.
I won a bet that way!
My theme song!
I’m not sure that’s true about Biden’s / American influence at this point. Oct 7 set Israel off in a way I don’t think anyone can restrain.
