    Watching the scroll of A-list and Oscar-winning stars populating this moving in furry skin-tight catsuits... My only reaction was “How the fuck did they get all these people to do this movie? What are the chance of Judy Dench and Taylor Swift being in a movie together (that’s not some terrible Garry Marshall

    Yeah, i guess just seeing ANYTHING is a bit a deterrent. Like whenever I’m watching a western and some guy gets off a horse and just casually throws a rope over a post and doesn’t even tie it, and that keeps the horse from wandering off. Just the sense that it can’t go anywhere keeps it in line....

    I don’t care about any other cast members. I’m looking forward to a future where, through technology or Scientology or some combination thereof where we can we get an all-Tom Cruise movie where Jack Reacher has to enlist Ethan Hunt to clean up an international crisis after Maverick thoughtlessly flew over the wrong

    As mentioned elsewhere... I assume the F-14 is an Iranian jet, since they’re about the only country still using them, and which fits the current narrative.

    I assume the F-14 was going to be Maverick flying AGAINST an Iranian. You know, keeping up international relations. There has to be some faceless enemy to keep the formula going, right? And the perfect callback to Maverick’s F14 knowledge. Maybe he’ll fly in front of one an induce it into a dead spin.

    I think you meant to say “HBO didn’t help Gwendoline Christie get her Emmy nomination, so her agent had to pay $225 out of his/her pocket, which he/she was later reimbursed for after submitting an expense report”

    20 years later though, will Nash still be able to afford his SF boat?

    Who is that woman in the header image who looks like an older Felicity Huffman?

    I wish he would’ve pushed even further on this point. Like “If we caught the worse serial murderer/rapist in history, would we keep their kids in cages as a deterrent for future murdering rapists?”

    As much as I love having TSA-Pre, it does make me wonder how, after a 10 minute interview in a WeWork rented office, I’m somehow good to just breeze through this supposedly vital and comprehensive security check.

    I literally JUST through away all my older clothes I stopped kidding myself I’d ever fit into again... Hope I regret it eventually...

    I’m surprised he didn’t make it a political argument. “If you owned slaves, it wasn’t about race! For every 10 slaves you owned, you got 6 more votes! And it was the Democrats who had all the slaves!”

    I mean, that DOES explain how every depiction of slavery I’ve read or watched in TV/film has mostly dialogue that goes “Hey! Get over here, PERSON! I will whup your PERSON ASS if you don’t get back to work! Goddam PEOPLE!”

    Oh riiight... Totally forgot about the call for backup part where four cruisers speed up and everyone starts yelling and the guy pleads for his life before covering his mouth to sneeze and then they plug him fulla holes because they thought he was reaching for a weapon.

    When are we going to hear the stories about how Tom Cruise actually learned how to fly those jets in this?

    I hope one of the promotional tie-ins will be a wave a Circuit City popup stores where they play this loudly on every home theater setup...

    Was that a flashback scene in the trailer, or did they just literally recreate the “Great Balls of Fire” scene for this?

    I’ve bought cauliflower pizza crust from Trader Joe’s and it was... fine. Wouldn’t exactly call the end result “pizza” but i would probably eat it again if i wanted something “not pizza” with sauce and cheese. But I’m not sure I’d invest the time into trying to make the crust.

    Well, even if it was that kind of plastic cap, and not the metal popping kind, the plastic ones have the attached bits you have to twist and break. Every bottle of every kind of beverage has some sort of mechanism to let you know if it’s already been opened. I’ve definitely opened a snapple or something that didn’t

    Dark meat and breast meat might as well come from two different animals. Anyone who picks breast meat over dark meat is freaking nuts. The thigh meat is just so much juicier, more tender, and flavorful. If you don’t get the breast meat within like the first hour of a roasted chicken, you  might as well be eating
