  1. When was the last time Trump saw a movie? Was it Home Alone 2 because he was in it?
  2. Just happened to watch A New Hope with my 5 year old for the first time (8 year old had seen it) today. Pulled it up on Disney and saw all of the May the 4th ads. Good timing.
  3. We got bogged down with kid stuff and were never able to get to the theater, so we watched this night. Loved it. It cooks for 90 minutes and is super fun.
  4. Are we off Rege-Jean Page for this? He was great in Black Bag and could be a good Bond. Now that the Broccoli’s aren’t around to call him “too urban” like Idris, maybe he should get a look. Theo James would be good too.
  5. Correct. JK Coe, who was mute for much of last season. I assumed that was the quiet guy. Min Harper got killed on his bike in Season 2.
  6. I saw it at the IMAX at Barton Creek mall. I know it's not the best IMAX, but the Bullock didn't get a print of the special ones that Coogler talks about in the video upthread (8-minute mark). I figured the other lesser IMAX's were enough. I did notice that it changed the aspect ratio in places, so I think it's close to the top level.
  7. Nah, he's good. Well, not mentally. He executed the guy handcuffed to the heater after he talked Shirley down. He should have a much bigger role this season, based on the books.
  8. Can we not do this on this thread?
  9. Yeah, it was a bit, but at least they went back and told them. They took the advantage and then gave them the key clue. I was worried that they would totally screw them. The mom/daughter would still be sitting there if they didn't tell them.
  10. I believe they were fencing stolen goods.
  11. This has been a wild 3rd quarter. Refs really swallowing their whistles. The basketball is good!
  12. Quick update for the people. They raised almost $1.4M, which is a new record. Just a massive amount of money that should do good for those new immigrants who are scared and need help. Texas doesn't usually do well, but we ended up at #3 this year ($67,846), behind only Michigan (they have big donors on this and always win) and Protect Trans Kids University (why not?) and just ahead of A&M. I checked in daily out of curiosity and there was a huge bump for Texas one day, so someone must have come up big. Probably not any of you degenerates, but good on you if you threw some money their way last week. The best story I heard this year was one of the main Michigan donors called them towards the end of the drive and had them tell him what amount it would take to make the Michigan total end in 13-10 (last year's OSU game score) and they got it done. Pettiness for good. Doesn't get better.
  13. I’m going to try to channel Mon Mothma at LCD Soundsystem tonight.
  14. Still a 9pm start for LCD?
  15. Jenny Lewis isn't an "icon" like most of the people on this thread, but for the Oregon Trail Microgeneration, she's pretty important. I always thought this photo was fun and represents how people see her.
  16. These ghouls only see things in utility and dollars and cents. They can’t fathom interest in anything that adds cultural value to a community. If it doesn’t put money in the pockets of the “chosen” few, why do it? That’s why they keep trying to cut arts funding and they are not philanthropic people. Houston has some of the best art in the country because they had rich patrons who valued those things (and loved seeing their names on walls). The Medici’s drove the Renaissance period. This new batch are Philistines and assholes.
  17. Final tally was just over $48M. Good start. I was talking about the movie this weekend and I think 2 of the 10 people I talked to had even heard of it. To be fair, this is a lillywhite private school group, so they’re not scouring movie boards and podcasts, but pretty disappointing. When I told them about it, they were all really interested. It’s just crazy to me how outside of the day to day conversations movies have gotten.
  18. I mean, he pretty much deserved that. Surprising for sure, but I didn’t feel too bad about it. I have loved Kaitlyn Devers since Justified. She’s a great actress.
  19. I have always loved Michaela Watkins, so it’s great to see her have a chance to cook.
  20. My review: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 There were 3 or 4 moments that I chuckled to myself because what I was seeing was so creative and good, namely the big musical number and the mid-credits scene. Really fun movie. I found the vampire stuff to be the weakest part, but the rest was A+.
  21. What’s the deal on IMAX? From what I see the only true IMAX is at Bullock and there are a couple of lesser IMAXs in town. Is it really that different? The Bullock times are harder for me to make.
  22. Complete fucking narcissist. It’s always someone else’s fault. His wife made a bad choice. It’s bad luck. It all happens TO him instead of because of his choices. She needs to force a separation again.
