The gun was in a rehearsal scenario. They were blocking it out for the cinematographer, but were not actually filming. There was supposed to be no ammo of any kind in the gun.

The difference is that the movie gun wasn’t supposed to be live or loaded. I think a more apt analogy would be if he was filming a car scene with a car that was supposed to have the engine disconnected from the driveshaft (can still make vroom vroom sounds, but won’t move). He mashes the accelerator and surprise, it…

I always think Dunning-Kruger sounds like some kind of delicious pastry. I imagine a kind of sugary bun with a berry custard filling.

Coming here to say the same thing. It sounds mostly that Thinx was guilty of bad marketing, by claiming to be healthy and sustainable, and being like every other company. Virtually none of the things we put in/on our bodies are regulated. To your point, PFAs are everywhere, and nearly impossible to avoid. We’re likely…

As much as I was pretty mixed on season two, I’m absolutely stoked to have season three coming soon. I missed most of this cast. 

I’ve got emails that are old enough to drink.  Who deletes emails?

As a post production worker, my 2 cents is that essentially there is zero cohesion between networks and streamers.  It’s a constant, and very annoying, battle to get the specs right for each different network.  We in post often hate it and think their deliverables specs are garbage, but hey, “network gets what network…

Have you considered that you might have just been lucky, rather than everyone except you being an idiot?

You’re in luck, as we covered that very topic last November:

I would be happy with just a smaller dynamic range. Or rather, my wife who is trying to sleep in the bedroom would be happier if every 11 minutes the sound from the living room didn’t sound like a 747 landing for three minutes then gets super quiet again.

“Pamela Anderson said her relationship with Tommy Lee might be the only time she was ever really in love.”

The fewer people who can hear and see a movie, the more prestigious it is.

How about setting some industry standards so we don’t have to contantly fiddle with our tv settings?

Run this with an article about why dialogue is mixed too quiet and all other things are mixed too loud and I’m set for the day.

I feel you. Hell, I believe you.

Counterpoint: You’re presumably typing that from relative safety without a heavily armed toddler standing outside your house. It’s really easy to be a G when you’re critiquing someone else after the fact, but let us know how you ACTUALLY react when you open your door and 42 inches of…

You’re really upping the ante on this shtick of yours.

1. The Coen Brothers would have succeeded eventually if their first film screened at a lemonade stand. Nice for them that it worked out this way and likely more lucrative, but they are bigger than Sundance.

On Patrol is live. I was watching when this happened. The above story isn’t quite what happened. Neighbors called the cops when they saw the child waving a gun in the hallway. Their apartment is across from the dad’s. When police first arrived, they spoke to the neighbors that had called before knocking on dad’s door.…

Yeah, this is the most America story I’ve read in a while.

Put a pin in it. I think AVClub is done now. Yikes.
