  1. Not much better for brunch than egg brouilles with a dollop of crème fraiche and caviar
  2. Not the thread for it, but also not very hard to figure out
  3. Shane appeals to the middle aged, suburban white guy. Not much else.
  4. Well done Sean and Mikey. Adrien Brody, yeesh
  5. All the acting was pretty great in what was otherwise a formulaic, silly movie.
  6. I generally don’t find Gillis very funny, but the Shelby Foote bit was hilarious. Burns giving that guy so much airtime has always been comical.
  7. Put this post in the hall of fame
  8. Another vantage point from that article
  9. The Conversation, French Connection, Night Moves, Bonny & Clyde, Royal Ts, Unforgiven, Crimson Tide, The Firm, Mississippi Burning, Runaway Jury, Hoosiers. That is desert island shit.
  10. I’m not getting fussed over Sark hires yet, but this is comical. We would fucking roast the hicks in college station if they hit up hospice for a hire like this.
  11. Aftersun was the best movie of 2022
  12. Wow, I’m surprised this is finally coming out. I remember hearing buzz about it after Sundance 2023, and then Majors decided to assault his girlfriend.
  13. Sorry for your loss, JGray. When my dog died about a year ago, it was one of the saddest moments of my life (which I realize is just an insane thing to be true, but it is). As many will say, remember the great times and be glad you got such a long ride!
  14. This really hit the spot, thanks guys
  15. Thanks gents. This is what I need. It’s been 15 fucking degrees in New York for 2 months, and my body and soul are in need of something close to home
  16. Anyone have a kickass gumbo recipe they’d be willing to share?
  17. I wish I could watch Margin Call for the first time again. Instead I just rewatch it at least once a year
  18. Couple new-ish restaurants I’ve been that I’d recommend: 1. Borgo - fantastic Mediterranean/Italian, with wood fire in the middle of the restaurant. Wine list is a bit too focused on natural for my liking, but there are a few traditional gems. This spot is being added to our regular rotation. 2. Smithereens - upscale New England in a cool subterranean space in the east village. Helps that my friend is the co owner and runs the beverage side of the house (former som at Ko). 3. Zimi’s - nice provencal food 4. La Tete d’Or - great client/expense account spot. Boulud does steakhouse. 5. Cafe Commerce - this is a revival of a place I used to frequent in my 20s when it was actually on Commerce. I would say good, not great, but glad it’s back
  19. The Boondock Saints. Came out when I was in 4th or 5th grade. I probably watched it 100 times between 7th and 9th grade. Now I see it has 26% on RT. Ah well.
  20. This is the absolute truth. To be clear, I don’t agree with trading a 25 year old generational talent, but if you convince yourself it’s the right move, you better get the mother load of trade packages instead of a shit sandwich.
  21. Did the big changes involve a mass execution of the Ohio State fan base? Because if not, the changes will not have solved the fundamental issue.
  22. Depends on your terminal, where you are staying in Manhattan, and the time of day. The below link gives a pretty good overview. With luggage and an 11 year old, I would bite the bullet on an uber, especially if it’s around rush hour. https://www.mta.info/guides/airports/laguardia/lga-to-nyc Edit: for hotels, check out Incentra Village in the west village. My parents used to stay there when visiting us. Great location for a non-first timer
  23. I thought the first half was remarkable. For me, the second half just didn’t work on a number of levels, but I love the swing and hope everyone goes to see it in the theater. The score is really top notch.
  24. Yeah, he made less than $5 million during his NFL career (before taxes). My man needs the money unless he's living like a pauper for the next 40 years.
  25. Sometimes you just have to treat your feet.
