  1. Hell yeah
  2. Colin Jost is a great host for Pop Culture Jeopardy. I’m almost too old to play.
  3. I don’t think Black Mass has been mentioned. Not top 5 but fun to watch Depp chew the scenery as Whitey Bulger. I think part of the problem is the definition of gangster. When I hear gangster movies, I’m thinking the mafia, or at least established organized crime. Some of my all time favorite moves, like Heat and Ronin, are great crime movies but not gangster movies. And I think Untouchables depends somewhat on your age. I was 15 when it came out in 1987 and I saw it in the theater. It was a huge role for Costner coming off of a great supporting part in Silverado (great fucking movie) and the start of a run that would include No Way Out, Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, Dances With Wolves, and Robin Hood in the next *four years*. Connery was in great form and already a legend, but he was coming off of Highlander and The Name of the Rose, not exactly blockbusters, so it was exciting to see him in such a good role for him. Deniro was on his way to being a legend but was coming off some odd roles too, like The Mission and Angel Heart, and this put him right back on track for legend. I had never seen anything like the baseball bat scene. Point is that if you are Gen X there is a lot of nostalgia around Untouchables, and as an 80s movie (there was a LOT of crap in the 80s) I think it holds up well.
  4. Does Gangs of New York count? The Departed gets better every time I watch it. It is very close to Goodfellas for me.
  5. Anything is a pick if you’re brave enough

    Beyoncé winning best country album is fucking stupid
  8. How do I add surly to a Twitter link or whatever? I’m trying it mock Man City in the Futbol forum dammit!
  9. This isn’t the same City but it’s a pretty depleted Arsenal too. Monster win.
  10. Eat every single dick City. COYG!
  11. Get in there young man!

  13. Hell to the motherfucking YEEAAAHHH SKELLY!
  14. Mash on the gas. Need to score in the second.
  15. Finally watched The Substance. Yo. I like horror but body horror tends to really creep me out. But this was so over the top all I could see was the crazy makeup/prosthetics.
  16. Almost none of them treat it like the competition that it is. The odds of winning the $5M is tiny, so any time they can maximize what they can take off the table guaranteed, they should. The people who turned down $1M are morons.
  17. Tim and Mustoe both pick us to win today. But they also said if we lose then the title race is over. Hard to disagree. So let’s beat these fucks. COYG!
  18. I hate all the Beast Games contestants. They are so stupid.
  19. We got rid of the cylon voice a long time ago.
  20. Owning some cheapos did give me the chance to learn a little bit of DIY guitar work, but mostly I just learned that I don’t want to have to do that stuff. I’m going to put some 8s on the remaining Firefly to see if it improves (you can barely bend the strings with 10s) and then I’ll probably move it. I’m going to move my Squier Strat too now that I have a real American SSS.
