He tried to obey, but it was difficult. Oh well. 

Weird thing, I liked  that it was a slog. The villain was fun to watch. But for once it wasn’t MCU or DCU and it was nice not having to carry 4 suitcases and a personal item into every fucking scene. 

“I’ve certainly known “regular” people who were masters of the elevator conversation”

“Tea Leoni - mean”

How can a system this corrupt ever be fixed?

I was a sucker for a B-level actor running across a blurred background, holding a gun at waist level. 

oh my god....

“the same Bond on some weird time scale and ignore inconsistent continuity.”

Oh man, it started to hit before our Hawaiian vacation in March and during those 2 weeks became THE story. Including discussion of a full ground stop. What a miserable vacation. I’ve been out there lots of times and this time, everyone had their heads in their phones doomscrolling.

“Still not worth the shame of owning one.”

Convertible owners will quickly tell you black leather is not the best idea. If I wanted one (and I kind of do want one, Christ why not have a big boulevard cruiser AND a sports car, if you only have one kind of car your whole life I truly weep for you) it would have the easier interior to live with.

His endless sarcasm is straight from pre-Covid days when we all thought we’d live forever, and weren’t on a quick path to eternal blackness. 

None of them are commenting here, that’s who. Find the nearest cancer survivor and ask them about who would make this purchase. If you’re looking to learn why a human shouldn’t give a fuck about what someone else does, they have great insight. 

“Found the CrossCabriolet owner.”

A few years ago Gilles was all about Chrysler being the “people mover” brand and he designed a small Pacifica-type MPV. There was a lot of talk about EVs and rolling pod-type connected vehicles. The idea being nobody really wants to drive, they just want to get somewhere.
