  1. if he is serious, sue for defamation.
  2. I'll be playing myself in this. Please keep an eye out. Scene is brief but impactful.
  3. Butler is not the worst. The other guy is the worst. It's like he was handed the script for a fratboy, immature character. This isn't "inner turmoil," it's just douchebaggery.
  4. Palabra. Someone forgot the game was politics.
  5. yeah, that's wild. let's not make this series need two threads. just spoiler the link
  6. I agree with the thought that this could have been a trilogy but considering the real world pressures in just getting this done (remember, part II was not even guaranteed), I think Denis did an excellent job. The Chani part will be controversial, but the relationship was well done and did a lot of the heavy lifting as to what costs Paul was going to bear. The movie was a not so sneaky love story, and I understand a recent interview that Denis had about this angle more. I thought the transition from Paul taking up the mantle to the actual battle was the weakest part of the movie, but the novel suffers from that as well. Rebeca Ferguson was outstanding. The simple shot of her face when she was talking to her daughter and deciding on the strategy of conversion while staring at the Fremen was great. I don't get the Austin Butler love. This is like one of the simplest character types to play, and I guess he hit that mark, but he is like deadwood as an actor.
  7. Rich Eisen can paint a story

    Didn’t have much of an impact on the Georgia roster? One year wonder? What?

    guess JJ McCarthy's arm is a bit stronger than widely believed.

    Ohio State's roster as good as any. Frankly, they had a monster off-season.

    agreed. WR corps is young, but loaded. Baxter should take a jump next year. Best OL didn't go anywhere. QB will have talent + experience.

    AD's talent was always obvious. his two knocks are his focus erring at times, and his occasional atrocious blocking. Being WR4 on the board might be beneficial to him, as it betters his chance of landing in a better organization

    what a combine for our guys on both sides. kinda makes me think some big time growing pains are in store next year for us.
  15. people have been waiting on suburban White women to save everything for like 3 elections now... their voting records say otherwise
  16. watched it with subtitles. It was very enjoyable. The action scenes, especially the one-on-one fights, are very well choreographed.

    The New Look

    watched the 1st episode and liked it.
  18. Annie's murder scene seemed like a bad ripoff by someone who watched Wind River

    depends on who you ask then. https://theathletic.com/5275295/2024/02/15/nfl-draft-2024-roundtable-jj-mccarthy-jayden-daniels/ I think like most QBs, his success will come down to placement in the right team and circumstances. It's Caleb Williams and Drake Maye, and then a bit of a crapshoot from there. And Caleb has most of the elements of a big character/mental risk. Some teams will get it right and want to claim genius from hindsight, some will get it wrong and then everyone will act like visitors to a leper colony and then state that they always thought that particular QB sucked anyways
