  1. dear rolling stone, no shit.
  2. disney+ canceled. apologies to the 6 people using my acct.
  3. i've only recommended this book about 200x on this board, but if you have a chance, pick up "adventures in the screen trade" by william goldman. i've prob bought 5 copies because i kept lending it to people. goldman goes through all of his projects up to that point, which i believe was late 70's/early 80's, but the highlight (to me) was the chapter about all the president's men. he was dealing with redford the producer, along with woodward and bernstein - the writers and their book - along with bernstein's then girlfriend, nora ephron. it's very accessible, even to those who don't give a shit about the film business or the writing business, and gives a lot of fun side-stories and anecdotes about redford, newman, and other characters he came across in the 60's and 70's. everything he's written is good, but this is especially great.
  4. this was also well worth the time.
  5. fixed.
  6. i feel like y'all are sleeping on legal eagles. that's a mistake.
  7. just woke up. robert redford has died, and everything is worse now. in 4 of my top 10 movies all time and directed a 5th. “my dad wanted me to be a baseball player.”
  8. obviously you never watched the mindy project, which was a great show (for 2-3 seasons). that's where i first saw/appreciated him.
  9. lots of bleeps tonight.
  10. so what you're saying is that trump is only mostly dead...
  11. he looks more qualified here than when he’s wearing his fbi outfit (a suit).
  12. then i guess we're all safe until tomorrow afternoon.
  13. pay attention folks, this is the price we pay to have cars.
  14. i'm jewish so i can just watch football tonight, yeah?
  15. he says that we, as a society, have accepted that the benefit of driving cars is worth 50k dead. that's what he's conflating and you're suggesting others are being dishonest about his positions? he speaks of an armed citizenry and how it's worth some deaths to have it. he doesn't mention (in that clip) that the gun death total is on par with car accident deaths, if not higher. he mentions the benefits to cars and driving but doesn't mention the benefits to having an armed citizenry. i wonder why. he spends the rest of the clip saying that all you need to avoid gun deaths is to have armed guards outside of (fill-in-the-blank / wherever gun deaths happen). he wants more armed guards outside schools is (i imagine) the point he was trying to make in the clip. i'm sure we have plenty of public funding to make that happen. he says there are no longer shootings at baseball games because there are armed guards outside of baseball games. there are 15 baseball games a day for 6 months. there are 150,000 schools. but sure, people are being dishonest about his rational and realistic positions. you don't have to get into his hate-speech, racism, sexism, or christian-white-nationalist-speech to understand exactly who he is. i'm not going to celebrate his death. but i'm damn sure not going to celebrate his life.
  16. does this really look like the type of guy who can hunt two different suspects at once?
  17. for every dem celebrating on social media, there are 5 maga fuckfaces that will use this incident however it best suits them.
  18. in their latest study, the concealed carry association reported that up to 135% of mass shootings were connected to gangs.
  19. i guess we can assume it was not some radical leftist. if it was, they'd be screeching about it by now.
  20. last few hours...last few decades.
  21. i'm just trying to avoid a measles outbreak.
  22. we do this in 2 of my espn leagues and it's pretty good. i would use whatever their default timing is (either wed or thurs early am followed by open pickups). i wouldn't fuss with it too much after that. i'm off to vegas in the am so you'll get our $ when/if i come back.
  23. lol like he’s taking questions.
  24. 2d on imax screen at the grauman’s chinese last night. perfection. also saw trailers for other re-releases: bttf (40th) and apollo 13 (30th).
