As the son of a former cop, I can also add that many departments measure their “success” via statistical data, to the point where budgets can depend on it. (sidenote: “The Wire” did a great job of showcasing this aspect of the job with all of their ComStat Meeting scenes). So in the case of traffic stops, a LOT of the…

She really can save just about any bad dialogue with her expert line deliveries.

Shhhhh!

Ouch! I burned myself on your hot take!

David just unknowingly repeated the Yautjas’ method under different circumstances.

Wrong. The modern correct approach is to bring in a bright young talent to play Laura, then have her discover some MacGuffin that opens a tear in the multiverse so that Jolie and Vikander can both make cameos. Bonus geek points if Minnie Driver and Hayley Atwell also cameo. The video game actresses are never…

The obvious answer is to work out indoors, then head outside afterward for the free trip to a sauna steam room.

As a native resident of a Tornado Alley state, the look and feel of this movie was spot-on. The plot...well...it’s just a movie. But the locations, vehicles, clothing and food were all perfection. And honestly, the fact that the weather varies from second to second in the movie may seem like a continuity error, but is…

A good father would do everything in his power to keep his loved ones from living in Florida.

Same here.

You forgot Ridley Scott, who arguably kicked off the Director’s Cut trend way back when he released the DC of Blade Runner. 

Yeah, the “hack” here is just recognizing that, when push comes to shove, your body will always override your mind. It’s the same theory as the whole “slap the panicking person in the face” cliche that shows up on TV and in movies. The cold shock method is easily accessible for most people, so it makes sense that it…

I was thiiiiiiiissssss close to having an ‘86 RX-7 (in excellent condition) as my first car. My parents were buying it for me (in ‘97, when I was 17, so they didn’t have to drive me to school/work anymore), and at the last minute decided to buy an ‘86 Honda Prelude from my aunt instead. Same price, only the Honda had…

Have you ever been to Nebraska? I can easily see how someone would get so bored that they start dabbling in genetic manipulation just to pass the time.

It is definitely better than its reputation. An overlooked gem in the careers of both Stallone and John Landis.

What about the bridges of Madison County? It may not be exciting, but your heart will be touched.

They take exploratory bites if they can’t figure out whether or not a person is prey, which accounts for many of the single-bite attacks. Unfortunately, our flesh is like soft butter to their mouth razors. They very quickly decide that we’re too boney and lean to be a viable food source, but by that point the damage…

The Predator race have a warrior’s sense of honor, so I’m guessing it’ll be something about the natives eventually earning the Predator’s respect. Maybe they even team up to defeat the common enemy of the white guys with guns.

My local Thai place gives these out with meals the way other places give out fortune cookies. Soooo good.
