If you go on IMDB and hover over Byrne’s picture in the search it says “Actor, The Usual Suspects”.

They are both excellent movies for very different reasons, but Miller’s Crossing doesn’t even come close to level of cultural significance and recognition that Usual Suspects has. John Turturro goes toe to toe with Byrne in Miller’s Crossing, and it’s not even his most famous film.

It’s fine to discuss double standards in the vein of seeking equitable treatment for people of color, but when that equitable treatment consists of essentially ignoring or rewarding poor behavior I will remain team no-one.

Well Josephine Baker was a singer and performer and she was also a spy for US/France during WWII. So even when graded on a curve...

It really is surprisingly good and one of the better Suspense/Thrillers movies I’ve seen.

Check out A Time to Kill or Frailty (even Reign of Fire which also has a Christian Bale for a bonus). He may have done some not so great movies for money, but one adjective I’d never use to describe him as an actor is boring.

“Dag”, “kick”, “I do like I do, “ain’t”

No prob. As an aside I do otherwise enjoy your posts, bygones.

Well is a premade meme, so maybe not discredit but definitely deflect. Your need to respond to mangoselassie’s post with “facts about society as a whole” instead of addressing the specific point the poster made is essence of “whataboutism”, because you decided their post needed some kind of adjunct or footnote when it…

okay. “larger issues” are important, but the devil is also in the details.

He looks like Tan Mom. What exactly about this picture with the color contacts and the stupid grill ins’t the veriest farce. Any person who isn’t black puting on make up to look black is “black face”, there are no levels to it.

The last time I saw Jay was in ‘03 and he was the headliner (with Freeway/Memphis/Beenie cameos) plus Busta, Missy, and 50cent. I think we sat maybe 5th row and it was about 65 dollars. I understand inflation is a thing but 230 for JUST JayZ, I only pay that kind of money for all-inclusive parties.

I like the book so far but I stopped about 60% in because the plot slowed to crawl and I got bored. The concepts and world building were engaging, but the authors writing style/dialouge was forgettable. I am excited to see how the show will translate the work visually because there are a lot of great ideas in the…

This is what vexes me the most about all this modesty nonsense. They tell the same story they’ve been telling for centuries now, you internalize and reinforce it harming yourself and others and pass it on and still THERE IS NO BENEFIT.

I love Rashida. I bet Pixar was overwhelmed with relief when they started reading, but then she hit them with that last sentence like:

Lol, it’s giving me shitty wanna be Pet Shop Boys’ West End Girl vibe. Please tell me no one takes this seriously.

I havn’t made it past season 4, but it has yet to make laugh as much as it did in season 2.

I never thought she was lying, but I found myself wondering if we would be privy to all this information if Hilary had won and if she remained as DNC Chair.

I’m not taking anything you’ve said as a judgment towards Brotherhood’s quality since you’ve never watched it; just giving you the pros and cons since I have seen both (never read the manga). There are differences, but there are also many many similarities. My point is if you like FMA, nostalgia and all, there is no…

There are elements of original FMA that are better (Izumi\Teacher has more story, they show more the boys past\training).
