According to Netflix it was #2 last week.

Nah. It IS indeed Goldenloin.

Nimona is great, but I don’t think you can rightly say that it would have performed better than Elemental or Ruby Gilman without actually...releasing it. Nimona is certainly the better movie, but it’s also playing a different game. I feel pretty confident that if Elemental had been free to stream on D+ it would have…

Note to self: Once I become Emperor, I will look for an Empress who grew up on a fluoride plantation.

“Fun” fact. Napoleon’s wife, Joséphine de Beauharnais. was actually OLDER than Napoleon by six years. This was actually a pretty big deal at the time! Vanessa Kirby is 13 years younger than Phoenix.

Narcan is sometimes given to people in septic shock, but it does not really work. Basically, if you find someone lying on the ground, unconscious, it is OK to give them naloxone (Narcan) if you don’t know why they are down because maybe it is due to opiate overdose and then the naloxone will help. The nose spray is…

It also says something that when he escaped from his first exile, the army sent to arrest him immediately switched sides and helped him take Paris.

I’m not going to lose sleep over Disney losing money, but it really pisses me off when I see some fuck mook attribute Disney’s failure to them “going woke” rather than not telling original, compelling stories. 

He did famously do that, though. The historical record is unclear on whether or not Admiral Akbar was heading up the Russian army at the time, however.

I watched this with my kids. While the story beats will feel awfully familiar to anyone with decades of movie watching under their belts, Nimona definitely stands apart for its characters and animation. The visual language feels different from anything the Disney/Pixar/Dreamworks machines have churned out. And it is…

I’ve read a few articles that said Narcan is also given to people suffering from septic shock. In the comments, a few people who said they were doctors and pharmacists said “no, it’s not.” She just OD’d, right?

Barbie made your kids trans.  I fully support this.  Go Barbie.

According to The Internet (TM), he made about 20k an episode in the early days and 100k an ep for later seasons. But those were 22 episode seasons, so by the end he was clearing 2 million a year. Then 20% to manager and agent, bunch of tax, etc, he probably made about a million a year in the later seasons.  So easier…

I, Tonya is what won me over.  It’s unlikely you haven’t seen it, but just in case, it’s so worth it!

Poe’s Law strikes again.

I suspect he was referring to the canyon between making hundreds of thousands per episode vs looking at movie stars making millions for one film.

oh he must have been big mad when they canceled ‘the farm’.

I’m glad that Nimona was able to see the light of day despite the odds against it. I can tell you that as an artist who has worked on projects that have been quietly shelved, its a bummer when your work is not only not shown, but you can’t legally show the work you did on it.

I too hated my office job because I thought I should be a movie star.

Which was not the point I was responding to. I was responding to minimizing the behavior. I requote for emphasis “If your partner is talking to you like this, make an exit plan”
