One Battle After Another, the next Paul Thomas Anderson film
finally got the chance to watch this on hbo max and absolutely loved it. when it is inevitably nominated for best picture i am going to go see it in the theatre when they start showing all the best picture nominees. i abhor fascism and trumpism and ICE, so my worldview being in alignment with that of the filmmaker i'm sure enhanced my appreciation of it. on that note, slorch walking out 15 minutes into it is the most on brand and hilarious things i've ever seen posted on this forum. i thought Benecio del Toro was the true hero in the story and loved how casually he just took care of business/got shit done. Leo is probably my favorite working actor and he is always incredible and funny in everything he does and this was no exception. the score was fucking incredible and the mood and pacing were on point the entire time. i will watch this several more times over the next few months. very much looking forward to each of them.

Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Helobious Is Getting Those Wrists Ready For Heavy Work
cool quote from Quinn re: his decision to enter last year's NFL draft rather than transfer somewhere else that some of these guys should probably pay attention to: "I felt like what I built with my teammates at Texas and the legacy that we built, I didn't want to mess anything up there," Ewers said. "... To me, it's not about the materialistic things of this world because it comes and goes. What's important to me is the relationships that are built along the way. And I didn't want to disrupt or rub anybody the wrong way, being selfish and trying to go get money from another team, because I was a lifelong Longhorn. "Growing up, I wanted to play there. Ended up being the quarterback there, living on my dreams. My 10-year-old self wouldn't transfer away and go somewhere else. So, at the end of the day, that was the right decision for me."

agreed. all things being equal, i'd prefer he stayed, but this isn't a major loss or anything like that.

Sterlin Harjo’s new show ‘The Lowdown’ coming to FX
i binged this over the past few nights and really enjoyed it, particularly the second half of the season when the overall story arch really started to come in to focus. thought there was some good musings on the the value/futility of caring and trying to get involved in things and make them "right" vs. just looking out for you and yours. it was very funny at times, edge of your seat at others, a fun hangout at others, and poignant with something to say at others. I hadn't really considered the posibility of a second season until reading this thread as it felt more like a limited series type of show, but if they could find another compelling story to tell with Lee Raybon that had nothing to do with the Washburns or Nazi Churches, they've certainly created a world that is compelling and characters that are fun to spend time watching.

Bugonia - Yorgos, Emma Stone, Jesse Plemmons
if anyone doesn't know, it's on Peacock now. I just watched it and man, i thought going in that this was going to be spot on: but obviously it was a bit more complex than that. don't think i really had my radar up that it could be anything different until she could have easily escaped but stuck around. really enjoyed it. glad movies like it are being made.

Jokic being out for 4 weeks could prove to be a big boost to the Rockets' playoff seeding.

As much as I love Tre Wisner and what he did at Texas, he did not "hold all the cards." There are multiple advanced stats out there showing he was one of the worst starting RB's in the SEC. In no way do you let yourself be held hostage by a guy like that - his performances against ou and aggy notwithstanding. I am 100% confident that Texas will bring someone in at RB who can, at worst, match what Wisner did this year.

Eason starting in place of Okogie is a massive upgrade to the rotation.

fun one going on against Denver right now. Rockets are up 82-66 after three quarters, it's been chippy at times, and Reed Sheppard is going off (22 points, 6 threes). gotta close it out.

For anyone thay wants more than a 4-team playoff
12 would be fine if they actually picked the 12 best teams. it was obvious to anyone that aggy and ou are as spare as spare can be this year.
