Well, since as an potential NCAA scholar-athlete, he assuredly has excellent grades, I don’t imagine securing admission at the institution of his choice should be any problem for him.

If Things are all about the Same Thing often enough, it becomes very much akin to being about No Thing.

1.) You are absolutely correct

So it’s an average genre film is what you’re saying?

They tried that. But, rather disturbingly, the machine that retrieves pop culture references from the future cannot retrieve anything but cave paintings, stone tools and oral folktales after 2019.

I agree. And I say that as someone who sincerely and heartfeltedly enjoyed Pirates of the Carribean 3, Tron Legacy and Valerian.

You could have just stopped at the first comma and we all would have sincerely and fulsomely applauded. The rest was just gravy.

I dunno, some of these guys are self-evidently damaged goods long before they even first meet a recruiter. The coddling and excuse-making extend way back into high school for them, seeing as they can run fast and throw a ball real good.

Sorry, I didn’t like the first 2 installments in the Ready Player One trilogy: Scott Pilgrim and Sucker Punch.

“A party to be held on a remote deserted island, from which there will be no escape! All robots hipsters must attend!!”

Me, I’m disappointed that the festival fell apart before fully entering into genre-film territory. Either:

“Be eaten alive by savages” would kind of be the ironically correct final ending to this, wouldn’t it?

Wouldn’t it be a greater sign of ignominy NOT to be allowed to enter into bankruptcy? Bankruptcy being, just so we’re all clear, a kind of legal protection where you make the case—and the court agrees—that you don’t have enough money to fully pay your creditors and so you enter into negotiations to pay some people…

Is there some sort of ettiquette for pointing out how essentially dishonorable the sexual behavior of college or pro athlete are? ‘Cause I once vaguely alluded to the fact that maybe a college shouldn’t be recruiting, say, a 17-year old with 4 kids by 3 women and was SCREAMED AT in the comments for being ‘racist.’…
