  1. I tried watching Baby Reindeer but only made it two episodes.
    It's too frustrating.  If Donny had just done what 99% of the world's bartenders would have done if some fat, ugly chick walked in without any money, there wouldn't be a show.  Instead, he's a bumbling idiot, who insists on making the wrong decisions at every opportunity.

    All true - but if you stuck it out that’s really the point of the show. He’s got issues - and the show is very self aware. He’s playing himself - he knows he’s got issues. If you crave attention so bad that she is appealing, you ain’t right.
  2. Can someone please suggest some old horror movies?

  4. Some are RSD only, some are ‘RSD First’ with a limited release (usually a color vinyl variant) on RSD that will have a larger release later.

    These days it’s mostly a bunch of crap and most of it you can find later, but there are sometimes gems here and there.

    My kids are camping out tonight to get the Chappell Roan LP. Couple things on that RSD I might be interested in.
  5. My kids are going to Doc’s early Saturday for Record Store Day. I guess they release short run albums? Any of you have experience with this? I was looking on eBay and it seems you can get most from previous years close to same price.

  6. Baby Reindeer. Wow - that was unlike anything I’ve seen and I think it’s about to blow up. Was it amazing? Possibly. I need to process, it definitely wasn’t what I expected. The fact this is based on a true story and the guy is playing himself is incredible. I’m excited to see what Surly thinks.

  7. Just watched Pulp Fiction with the entire family at the Fort Worth Rooftop Theater last weekend. It was glorious. If you are in the area - that place is great. They play great movies 2-3 times a day everyday.

    Next weekend we were looking at Dirty Dancing, Almost Famous, and The Menu as a triple feature. You can basically set up camp and leave and go eat or get a drink and come back.

  8. The Prestige is fucking awesome. I probably would rank it 3rd after his unassaliable top 2.

    The Prestige is incredible. I had the hardest time getting my kids to watch it all the way through but once they finally did - it was the biggest “holy shit that’s awesome” moment.

    Interstellar outranks it for me just a bit.

  9. Saw it last night on the Dolby Immersive screen and was a good way to go. Audio was amazing. Movie completely lives up to the hype - especially the last hour.

    Zendaya didn’t work for me - no screen presence imo - just looked like a pouty teen (which I guess she was) - but something was missing for me.
