That said, we’ll played Newcastle. That’s how you stay out of relegation.
As someone who is watching Newcastle because of Miguel Almiron, I'm thrilled with this outcome. Hope they stay up so if he stays another year he's in the EPL.

His parents emigrated from Bulgaria and he's supposedly named after Indiana Jones.

Adding 1917 to a category by itself between the please win and sure why nots. If it wins I'm EXTREMELY ok with it. It is a technical marvel of a film. The characters are kind of ancillary to the visual spectacle of it all, but I'm a character, writing, plot kind of guy and Parasite and Jojo Rabbit were more up my alley in that regard, but 1917 was an amazing cinematic experience.

OSCAR SO WHITE! talk not going away on twitter. Does that sort of stuff have any influence or affect on the Academy or you guys?
Academy voters are 90 percent white, 3/4th male and have an average age in the low 60s.
It has no effect on anyone. People want to bitch just to bitch. I don't care who makes a movie as long as it's good and not Oscar bait bullshit. I didn't hate Green Book because it was made by white dudes. I hated Green Book because it was shitty.

Weird how some of that gets done. How was Jamie Foxx's character in COLLATERAL considered for "Best Supporting" -- he had more screen time than Cruise, IIRC.
Is Brad Pitt really "Supporting" in HOLLYWOOD? I really need to see this movie this week.
In terms of the Mister Rogers movie Tom Hanks is definitely a supporting actor in terms of screen time.
I'd say Pitt is basically co-top billing with Leo in Once Upon a Time based on screen time. It's a fairly substantial role.

I didn’t see it but how is Tom Hanks in the supporting category for Mister Rogers? Isn’t the whole movie about him meaning it would be best actor category?
Matthew Rhys' character is the main character.

I don't know that I think Ed is smart, but he's an affable guy, he's a good motivator, and he did a great job making new hires for his staff and letting them do their job. Kudos to him.
Ed Oregeron has been coaching for 30 years. He's the physical embodiment of the neanderthal, rub some dirt on it FOOTBAW guy. He was smart enough, and humble enough, to realize power based, run offenses aren't going to win championships in college football anymore. Saban was winning with that shit, but even he realized that the game was changing and he allowed Alabama to open the offense up. Nobody could've ever predicted Burrow would be THIS, but Orgeron knew he had something as well as a wealth of skill position weapons so he trusted a relatively unknown dude to come in and reshape the offense. It was a gamble and it very clearly worked out.
Orgeron is like Dabo. I don't think anyone will ever think he's a tactical genius, but he paid his assistants well and delegated to them. This is the era of the CEO coach in college football. Nick Saban is a once in a generation coach, trying to find someone like him is fools gold. Dabo's extreme religious fanaticism plays well to recruits and their mothers. Ed O is the perfect representative for Louisiana culture. They're charismatic, smart leaders who delegate to smart coaches.
I'm super impressed by his willingness to try something different even if it was counter to his every instinct as a football coach. His humility and willingness to delegate is completely antithetical to the way Texas football is run currently.

Utterly fantastic movie

Bumping this thread again
Watched this movie last night and loved it. The early Hitler scenes were hilarious and the movie was just all around really interesting and well done. Recommend highly.

TJ Ford and the 2002-03 team are why I fell in love with Texas my freshman year, not Texas football. I always had that soft spot for Texas basketball. Now? I don't give a fuck. I didn't watch last night. I won't watch them again this season. Like everyone else I'm so sick and tired of how bad the team is. There's no reason to let him coach the rest of the season. Don't care about the buyout. Don't care about it blowing up the program. Don't care if the players revolt. They all suck anyway.
I don't even care who they bring in next. I don't need some splash hire. I just want someone who can coach basketball. I don't care if they bring in top recruits because lord knows they haven't done shit with a top recruit since DJ Augustin so why does it matter? Find an actual basketball coach who runs an actual offense and understands game management. Get rid of the clown show they have now.

Anthony Hudson was named coach of the U20 team and the reviews are not great guys!

so what’s the story with the emperors wife?
yeah man, if pop culture has taught me anything it's bad guy's chicks are ride or die and you'd have to think Mrs. Palpatine was a ride or die kinda lady to be with the most evil dude in the galaxy. Major question marks about her imo.

Doug Palpatine hung out and stocked shelves at the grocery store with Chad Vader. Probably took smoke breaks together. Employee of the month in August 1987. Shame what happened to Doug Palpatine
If Disney+ next original Star Wars show isn't a multi-camera All in the Family style sitcom with Emperor Palpatine coming home from work and being disappointed by how much of a non-sith piece of shit his kid is what are we even doing?

So I have a lot of questions:
- Does being a sith lord skip a generation?
- How much must it have sucked for Doug Palpatine growing up knowing that he'd never earn his father's approval?
- So Palpatine is basically the worst sports parent ever?
- Did Doug Palpatine's wife not have serious red flags about her father-in-law?
- Did Doug Palpatine really think his dad would never find Rey?
Why do I think his name is Doug? I don't know it's what popped into my head.

So...like...if JJ Abrams hated The Last Jedi so much why didn't he just make Episode 8 himself?

While I thought the finale wasn't quite up to the level creatively as the Hooded Justice origin and last week's Dr.Manhattan story, I thought it landed the plane well so to speak. I really enjoyed the show from start to finish.

I don't think it's punishment - at least not from Dr. Manhattan. Dr. Manhattan just forgot he had put Veidt there when he used Veidt's amnesia device.
Think of it as be careful what you wish for.
This. Manhattan thought he was doing Veidt a favor. He got sick of the adoration of Crookshanks and Phillips and thought that Veidt would like it because he's the world's biggest narcissist, but he got sick of it too and wanted out but Manhattan was in the tunnel of love and couldn't get him out.
