I grew up with a guy whose last name was Dangar, who claimed “Danger “was the correct spelling. Too bad “Shut the fuck up, Donny” wasn’t a thing yet at the time since exactly no one believed him (and we knew the rest of his family).

Any shaggy-dog story that features a clueless protagonist in the middle of something way beyond his understanding is going to draw tough comparisons to Lebowski and Inherent Vice, but I thought The Nice Guys handled it perfectly (especially since it was so damn fun). Granted Gosling’s bumbling PI had Crowe’s more…

They had some absolute artists at that over the years.  I’d love to see them try to put the band back together as much as possible, especially on the music side.

Thought that was right before, but that really serves to only reinforce the point

Oh I’ve no doubt.  Poor guy.

I think the big difference is that it doesn’t matter what the topic is, it can be clipped and warped to make someone look bad and the clickbait postings that result can be monetized. Doesn’t have to comport with a specific political perspective. And as far as comedy goes there’s definitely plenty of “if this person…

Because outrage culture and woke are not the same thing? There is an army of shitposters out there who are glad to grab any one clip out of context and turn it into a scorched-earth indictment of the person in question. Politicians have forever had to worry about the seven-second sound bite that could be pulled to…

I think maybe he’s projecting.

1. This seems like a terrible idea to start with

Gleeson has done it before but I have to think it would be a pretty serious challenge for Impacciatore.

Given where these revivals started, it’s bonkers that the series has turned into a critical and commercial success with depth of characters and plot.  I guess that’s what happens when someone with creativity like Reeves decides to take the whole enterprise seriously.

In that case I’d say there’s very little mystery how they died. JerkHole.

I am curious if these things will know they’ve been in accidents and...then what?  They OnStar themselves?  Call the police?  Pull over and wait for the actual driver to do one of those things?  

IIRC that was how it was used in Minority Report - you got on the highway and then were slotted into traffic until exiting and taking back over.  That part at least makes some sense.

I have to think these will only be permitted in the right lane with speed dictated by flow of traffic. Still more efficient than a driver who has to stop for food and mandatory rest.

Don’t forget that the passing truck drops to 64.9999 when it hits an incline, starting the process over again.

Was thinking the same thing, but the times it’s happened to me in the past were with much older vehicles. Very few (if any) these days have door corners that will actually cut or gouge you.

Just saw one of those last week. It’s a lot smaller than the Cybertruck, basically looks like a squished Bronco.

What a country!

And probably shouldn’t be having any.
