I mean, the guy was outed as a lying grifter immediately after the show aired, only showed massive interest in his now-ex after she mentioned she works in finance and lied about his alleged lack of intimacy and long term relationships after his wife died. The only surprising thing here is that after Theresa inevitably…

That’s something she just did for this particular character; when she was having her “conversations” with her dead father her droopy lip and mealy mouthed delivery were things he mocked her for. Kate Winslet is just THAT good.

In live action? Nope. But The Last Unicorn gave The Neverending Story a run for its money and I’d argue that even though animated, is the better 80s fantasy film. The soundtrack slaps, the VAs are killer, the animators all moved on to Ghibli, and the author adapted the screenplay. The Last Unicorn in film was…

The first film? Not really, though the interaction with the Empress is a bit more interesting. She keeps reading the Neverending Story over and over to goad Bastian (the human boy) into giving her a name because the story will just keep repeating itself unless he does so.

They protest at NASCAR and they'll get shot by some redneck. Performative wokeness like this never takes real risks.

“Entitled White Woman Emma Stone marginalizes POC with ludicrously salty statement about how she 'deserved' an Oscar. Now, I present to you 2000 words about how Emma Stone is a problematic Karen pretender."

No age and experience can mitigate that level of halting delivery, devoid of substance, in direct opposition to her own party’s stated platform- plus the hysterics and horrific setting.

I mean, the guy was on Joe Rogan, which says everything. Also, Barbie called out his film as a joke: “I kept having this horrible nightmare where I was REALLY invested in the Snyder Cut of Justice League.” It’s 100% “dudebro with hurt feefees” energy.

Even if, she was only 20 when Jude was shot and there were some EXTREMELY graphic elements in that film for a 20 year-old to play, opposite a costar 16 years older than her. Her age was a primary reason why Kenneth Branaugh didn’t want to cast her for Frankenstein, since he felt a teenager would have been too young…

Elden Ring is pretty decent that way- I was able to easily pick it up and put it down. The only areas where it gets tricky with easily saving are the legacy dungeons, which you’ll know when you see them, and even having to backtrack from an earlier site of grace is somewhat helpful since you’ll have an idea of what to…

The ones at theaters? Who knows? The buckets that I’ve seen don’t seem to be easily washable or reusable to the point where you could take it home and say, put your own popcorn in it.

Because these labor costs only reflect unloaded labor. “Full Load” for an FTE is generally their annual pay plus an additional 40% in benefits. PAY hasn't meaningfully increased, but the cost of insurance and plan administration has skyrocketed. And as more insurers lean heavily into voluntary benefits, it's only…

Oh sweetie honey baby child, there is no way in hell your credit score is zero if you have open lines of credit or an established credit history. You cosigned an auto loan and kept a balance for multiple years? Boom, credit score. You have available credit through open accounts? Credit score. You ever had a mortgage?…

Also, your local joint is still buying the same frozen product from Sysco, Perkins, UNFI or another distributor. I always get a chuckle when folks in here bloviate about "local" meaning "authentic."

There was a “home movies” filmed segment that was quite decent, yet bizarrely didn’t get mentioned in this recap. It was FAR more satisfying than the Stanley segment full of missed cues that went on well beyond its runtime.

Hell, Return of the King won all 11 awards it was nominated for, tying another blockbuster- Titanic- for the most statuettes ever awarded. And speaking of Titanic, THAT film holds the record for the most nominations at 14.

Shoutout to Casey's breakfast pizza; folks in my area were talking for YEARS about how great Casey's was and initially I thought it was due to being in a rural/ exurban area with no other options. Then, I caved one day and nope- it actually is that good.

Once again, nominating committees seem to neglect the part where a film as a whole, screenplay, acting, production design, stuntwork, etc all happen to have this thing called a "Director" actualizing that vision... as long as that Director is named Greta Gerwig.

They do sublet. Used to manage in university dining and large foodservice contractors often have contracts with national brands to maintain exclusivity in the proposal stage. At the time I was still in university dining, Chartwells held the Chik-fil-A contract and they would write agreements so that the space could be…

Contrary to belief, even Olive Garden is prepared for modifications. Unless you’re the fool asking for a vegan zuppa toscana it can generally be subbed.
