  1. i feel like this is going to be one of those that should be satire but will be uncomfortable because it's actually a little too on the nose now. like Veep became lol
  2. i can suggest Rocky River Ranch in Wimberley if a completely secular option is preferred. not nearly as exclusive, but the camp grounds are adorable and all the bunk houses are on a bluff well above the river, they suffered minimal damage in 2015. RRR was the highlight of niece's summer for 12 years 🙂
  3. didn't they film actual races and then like 'insert' the APX car footage on somehow, i think...i dunno, but that was fun! 👍 cinematography and sound accolades coming their way. but holy crap was it Bruckheimer-y 😆 Pitt does seem to be kind of phoning it in lately...but he's still charisma and coolness poured into a very nice package 😛 Shea Whigham continues to be the most ubiquitous man in Hollywood lol previews: Leo and PTA...can't wait. The Smashing Machine is Oscar bait for The Rock. and The Odyssey is gonna have quite the build-up to live up to! 🤨 Eddington opens tomorrow, it's next on the list. A24 just doesn't seem to miss!
  4. to be clear, that's for the CVI.
  5. i did not know that there was a different ending originally, with Alex killing herself rather than attacking Beth, but it didn't test well. Glenn Close preferred that ending bc she felt it better reflected Alex's struggle with mental illness, which runs in her family and is a cause near to her heart. in hindsight she actually regrets how Alex was portrayed, although she acknowledges it made a good movie. and i know all that because gotdamn Fatal Attraction was on gotdamn Turner Classic Movies and a gotdamn old lady told me all about it in her gotdamn NPR voice post-credits. i have gotten old without realizing it.
  6. the left has 'hit paydirt'?? fucking moron 🙄
  7. mchookem

    Emmy 2025

    Sam Rockwell for the supporting actor win!
  8. that was pretty wild 😮 i had read/knew nothing going in...no idea it would be so directly allegorical. i was quite amused lol Corenswet looks too much like Cavill. or maybe they both just look like Superman🤔 he sure has a nice ass 😎 DC continues to be heavier and darker than Marvel, which is probably why i prefer it. entertaining.
  9. i did enjoy the camper/bus falling off the cliff scene in LW...when both mama and daddy t-rex appear from the woods was cool.
  10. especially in summer!
  11. yep. sharing again: https://theoatmeal.com/comics/believe it takes actual intelligence and critical thinking skills to counter the physiology. so the country is fucked lol.
