Peter Jackson insisted on filming there largely because it provided an absolutely huge variety of environments in much closer proximity than in Europe, within a single country. It was a cost effective and less complex way to get everything from British ish farms fields to marshes to snow covered mountains and a god…

Yeah that’s the thing. Even a best case scenario where they ship some one a complete recording set up AND they have an appropriately sound proofed room (closets are preferred over bathrooms). You still got some one trying to set that up on their own, and then they still have to do their own mixing/engineering.

You take it’s power away by making it October 28th.

Pretty much. IIRC they were approached by the Harry Potter people, and realized they had a bunch of failed test batches that tasted god awful so that let them launch the product incredibly quickly. Like the vomit ones was like a failed attempt at smores or something, rotten egg came from an early batch of the popcorn…

That depends very much on the location and how the fishery is managed. Our bay scallops here in the North East are usually nearly as large as the smallest size of sea scallop caught locally. And they can be seared or sautéed without a problem.

Something that doesn’t tend to work well with the Peruvian and Asian “bay…

Kinja still borked. But I wanna address this from Say what now? in the greys:

I seem to remember there being something weird with the rights to the name, but I can’t seem to find anything on it.

“but it seems RDJ and Evans, among a few others, were recast at some point?”

So two ten minute episodes would have some how paced it better?

I’m not quite sure what Disney+’s obsession is with running things that are just on the noticable side of shorter than standards. Practically everything they run is either 10ish minutes short of the half hour mark, or 20ish short of an hour. They’re even falling short of broadcast run times by at least a few minutes.

Honestly there’s little difference between these and regular Jelly Bellies at this point. They have so many flavors with such similar appearances, and so much wack shit that whatever you buy you have no clue if what you’re eating is going to taste like candy or bile.

Some what famously most of the Bean Boozled flavors…

Hate to tell you this but that’s all staged and deliberate. The big secret with these shows is most of the items are either already bought before they start shooting. Or even borrowed or rented from prop houses. All the negotiation and searching for shit is staged as are most of the conversations.

Never worked one on…

It’s worth noting that many bay scallop fisheries are quite sustainable.

A LOT of frozen seafood does. Especially frozen shellfish it’s worth checking the package to avoid it. Besides the odd taste the texture is weird and causes that whole moisture dumping thing that can straight ruin a dish.

PROBABLY.

No the disease creates the vampires. The end twist is around people having found a treatment that gives them control of their faculties.

“strong bond with the dog”

Probably more that they’re trying to keep their stock price going up. Just mentioning crypto and blockchain, especially with these stonks people driving it leads to a stock increase.

No. They just announced they were a little closer. They’ve been talking about proof of stake since they launched, there’s little sign they’ll ever actually make the move. It’s likely that doing so would kill it, since the get rich quick allure of mining is so key. And since the value of crypto is intimately tied to…

Yup. And like the article says this probably a follow on to that. The meme stock guys are all about crypto.
