  1. Honestly, whether you're going highbrow or lowbrow, good writing and editing is crucial either way.
  2. No. Star Wars is deliberately pulp, lowbrow SF, as much as Star Trek is highbrow "ivory tower" SF. What Gilroy is doing here is showing that Star Wars can also be a vehicle for a more intellectual form of storytelling, just as Nick Meyer proved in The Wrath of Khan that Trek can be top-tier pulp adventure. But pulling it off is difficult. Fuck up, and you get the fan reaction to The Last Jedi (or, in the Trek universe, Beyond). And it's a lot easier to fuck it up than do it right.
  3. I saw that. https://www.espn.com/mlb/recap/_/gameId/401695443 He had a bad day.
  4. We need a thread about the threads about the threads in Threads linked to Threads. (Translation: We should discuss if we should have a separate topic about the costumes in this particular movie on Instaface's microblogging site.)
  5. Loved the whole notion that
  6. we literally have threads for individual shows
  7. I'll gate crash it like Danny Carey hitting the cymbals in "AEnima."
  8. s2e8 was the best Star Wars I'd ever seen an hour later it was second best
  9. oh fuck off, you know you love it
  10. In my headcannon, that's K2S0.
  11. Jesus Christ. I just finished 8. I need to take a breather before 9. That was... well, I've been crying and I'm a complete fucking mess. Holy shit.
  12. OK, then, how about the drummer from Green Jello? Around the time they released "Three Little Pigs." That guy was great!
  13. LOL. No, unless the guy comes out in public, I'll take it to my grave. He has very conservative religious parents, so mum's the word.
  14. I realized something a couple of years ago about a friend I grew up with. I suddenly put together a bunch of random things that, each by themselves, don't mean much; it's not until you put them all together that they form a clear picture. Was really into weightlifting, with several magazine subscriptions, growing up. Only dated one girl growing up -- the super hot chick everyone was hot for... who turned out to be lesbian. The time that one gay guy who moved away came back to visit, and he was far angrier about it than everyone else. Never married. Just one day had that "oh, shit!" moment and figured it out.
  15. Seriously. On a Tuesday afternoon, no less...
  16. and you know she puts out

    Football video games literally had to change their programs to adjust for his kicking; now, he's a late night talk show punchline. Yeah, I think he's gone from being a definite in to a definite out.
  18. First, you want about two fingers' clearance. Second, the collar it comes with is adjustable, how much force is needed to break apart, based on weight. You want it to come off in the right circumstances, but not easily. Thirdly, it's a GPS collar. If they come home without it, you WILL be able to find where they left it. 😁
  19. we should talk more about feeling up titties
  20. As if I wouldn't know.
  21. Few...wait. Nevermind.
