I thought the same thing. It’s going to be some weak mix that’s 9 parts sweet/sour to 1 part booze. The sheer amount alcohol that is supposed to be in a legit LIT would cost more than a dollar at cost, so I can’t seem them giving that shit away for a buck unless it is super diluted with mix/Coke.

Truly, Ms. Conduct made this episode an A all by herself, m’alright?

Only God Forgives stands as the only movie to make me legitimately angry that I wasted two hours of my life watching it. Refn is an amazing visual artist, but I’m pretty much done with his BS at this point.

I would throw Fort Worth’s hat into the ring of a small-big Texas city that has quite a bit to offer travelers. It’s got a great vibe, and it’s next door to all the touristy stuff in Arlington, and Dallas is just a little further down the road, if they want to hit the Metroplex trifecta.

That “kicking my own ass” schtick seemed more like a Liar Liar homage. The glitching got really old, really fast, and come on.....he was launching his head full force into metal. He’d be eight kinds of concussed and his face would be ground meat. He looked barely scathed when he was walking away from the building at…

That was my immediate thought. He might “fire” Elliot, but I think he’ll try to find out why Angela wants him fired whether she likes it or not.

I LOVE Papa Murphy’s. The only one near me closed down and I miss it dearly. If I was planning on a lazy night in, I liked being able to go by there and pick it up, put in the fridge, and then heat it up any old time I wanted to without fucking with the added cost/time of delivery.

I remember full-service stations. They disappeared in my part of Texas before I was old enough to need gas, and it is a luxury I would be willing to pay for now that I have to pump my own.

All of those actors were in the film in question, hence they “would have seen 1 and 2 firsthand”, aka they would have witnessed Von Trier’s behavior toward Bjork after takes. Also, while Bjork isn’t considered a prominent actor even today, she’s a lot more famous than Peter Stormare or David Morse, then and now.

That’s why it is hard for me. I know my mom doesn’t view her behavior as vindictive or intentional. She has mental problems. But she doesn’t have the self awareness to see that what she does is wrong and needs to change, so how do you make a situation like that work? They can’t change if they can’t acknowledge what’s…

I was always an English nerd, my degree is in English, and I have read hundreds of books. 8th grade English was primarily Grammar Class, and I hated it. I couldn’t diagram a sentence to save my life, not then and not now. My ability to communicate coherently comes simply from reading voraciously.

My mother and I used to be very close when I was very young (and she could control me and everything I thought and did). But as I got older and I moved out and on with my life, our relationship has become much more antagonistic, with the bad far outweighing the good. I force myself to call her and spend time with her…

That’s exactly what I was thinking....Clone Beth wouldn’t have the memory of his offer.

From what I read in EW, the director says the second part will be more like the book, that he was shooting more scenes with the kids and it will be interwoven with the adult timeline.

Especially since Mike is apparently still going to be the torch-bearer for the crew like he is in the books. It made sense for him to do that because he had such a connection to the history of the place. Ben AND Mike got short shrift, for sure.

Yes, this. My only real disappointment was the short shrift given to the bullies (they could have at least focused on Henry like the miniseries did - instead we get teased with Patrick Hockstetter and the fridge showing up in the previews and then NOPE). I also feel like Ben and Mike were not fleshed out properly, and…

I actually think something like the Ritual of Chud is planned for the second part. I think every potential negative of the first part can be directly connected to the fact that they didn’t know if it would be a stand-alone film or a two-parter (it all came down to how successful the first part was).

I just saw a commercial advertising their new “Munchie Mashups”, which are basically just different bowls of stuff to tantalize the stoner who is hungry but wants hashbrowns, buffalo chicken, and cheese, and just can’t choose.

Oh, didn’t you know? Only things like a woman receiving oral sex leads to an NC-17 rating. Cannibalizing babies is a solid R.

It’s the same actor!
