It’s just that five other directors received more.

Acting Oscars should not be given out for past performances. That’s what the Lifetime Achievement Oscar is for. People should win for the performance they’re nominated for.

It was also pointed out that many of those Tesla owners did not understand the basics of charging, i.e. conditioning the battery pack via warming. I don’t know what it’s going to take for EV owners to understand that they can’t simply treat an EV the same as an ICE.

I still daily the Merc Sable version of that wagon. It had just enough styling changes and interior upgrades over the Taurus to make it a nice ride with great utility.

I agree with you about Leo. While you could blame the script for making the Earnest character so uninteresting, it’s the actor’s job to find some depth there, and he didn’t. That final scene with Molly where Earnest couldn’t tell the last truth should have heartbreaking on his part, but it was only Lily that had any…

And the truly stupid thing is that once he saw the oncoming plow, his answer was to try to speed out of the situation. If he had just got off the gas until the truck he was passing moved ahead of him, he could easily have pulled safely back into his own lane.

The second picture makes it clear why he didn’t roll over the edge. The FWD effectively disengaged once the front tires went over the lip.

The interesting thing is that while Waterworld is the poster boy for movie failures, it made good money once you consider worldwide revenues. That’s the thing about action films, language isn’t a big issue.

Who watches the watcher, though?

Yes, a lot of people are being pretty callous. But it’s harder to maintain empathy and compassion for an addict that has access to resources like she does than it is for ordinary civilians.

(or equivalent; you also need to write a plausible reason why he was fooled, because I don’t think the story works if he’s just an idiot)

I’m not a marketing guy, so maybe resurrecting the brand has insufficient ROI for Stellantis. They’ve got a lot of brands to maintain. It’s just that I’m old enough to want the brand to survive.

I was OK with both actors, although Richson is much better physically. My problem is with the plots. They set up scenarios that were very interesting to begin with, but wound up totally failing Occam’s Razor. I find that very unsatisfying for mysteries. Seriously, kill multiple innocent people just to obscure the real…

I don’t think that it helped that the pitch kind of made fools out of people. It’s one thing to make a joke, but this deceived people and made them feel like the butt of the joke.

Target/Wegmans- I liked Hank Hill’s observation that he likes shopping at big box stores so he can see how his hammer looks with his pants before buying.

C’mon, don’t yuck someone else’s yum. I use it only infrequently on salad, and I don’t get other uses like pizza condiment, but live and let live.

Looking at the picture I thought it must have been some spelling of cronuts.

Another version of fried dough popular in New Orleans, usually dusted with powdered sugar.

Anyone who’s read Brunner’s The Sheep Look Up will immediately recognize this as a Puritan product.

Well, there’s ice-nine, but you don’t want to mess with that.
