I enjoyed Fatal Attraction and will watch White House Plumbers, now that I’ve been reminded it is on. I also don’t really get all the hate on Ted Lasso. The first season was “nice” at a time when we needed nice, but it was always just a “nice” show.

I don’t think it’s necessarily the devotion to Donner/Reeve (well, not that alone) that did a number on it, it’s that it’s not just aping the style, but straight up making it a distant sequel to the Donner films. You can do a movie in their style, but straight up doing a sequel to a 20 year old movie is not the way to…

I have the series on DVD, purchased this year. 

Just like America right now.

Just a reminder that The Night Manager with Tom Hiddleston and Hugh Laurie was really very good.

Theater cut, or the extended edition?

I think some of the humor has aged poorly, but juvenile jokes and crude puns are part of the joy of the game. There’s nothing wrong with juvenile humor, as long as it isn’t directed as a group. And it’s fun to drive through a seemingly realistic city, only to suddenly realize the ad for watches on a billboard has the…

He got us, folks. The resident incel has trapped us in his web of logic. 

Answer to dipshits who ask stupid questions: It doesn’t fucking matter. If you want to be Alpha Male about it, just think of it like stocks: because past results don’t predict the future.

I keep forgetting about this series, and I hope that when I get Apple at the end of the year to catch a few exclusive films I can remember to try it. It does look like fun.

I wouldn’t worry about it. Napoleon will escape from his exile and reign for another hundred days.

I agree. Though to be fair the 12th Doctor’s TARDIS interior was just the 11th’s with some extra book shelves (I think). However it suited Capaldi’s Doctor perfectly.

Eh, my experience as a Jew is that when I get into a discussion of Israel it goes...not great on the antisemitism side. There is a LOT of antisemitism just below the surface in well-meaning people and you get to it pretty easily in that discussion. Especially because I despise Netanyahu and the current Israeli…

God damn that’s a good title.

“You will find yourself stuck in place, unable to intervene as your fellow man stands to confidently announce that “This is actually more of a comment, but….””

Yeah. Mostly it’s just set of rules for how to the government, there’s nothing in there about specific rights of the citizenry. Term limits and whatknot, who gets to vote, etc.

I never read the booklet Barnaby was handing out at the No campaign bullshit, but I’m pretty sure that’s not in there.

It’s really not. I mean even if you’re in the camp that it’s objectively bad, saying it’s one of the worst big budget movies ever created is just hyperbole. Personally I found it to be a lot of fun.

Oh my god again the idiots are out in full force with some form of “Comedian tells joke that’s fake, news at 11”.
