Pop-culture nerd, horror-fiend, animal lover, proud atheist, & taco enthusiast. Girl-dad. I go hard in the 4th quarter. All thoughts expressed my own.
The first season alone is pretty up and down. The whole pilot episode, the sheriff is like "I cannot let mob justice rule", and then he's just like "oh whatever, let's burn him!". I've fallen asleep watching many of these, which is wild because they all legit have dream-like qualities.

Probably not, this AI bubble will burst (probably sooner than later), and CEOs and decision makers will realize it's cheaper just to employ people, than use AI and then have to pay people to fix everything AI fucked up.

I didn't know he was from Dayton, OH

I remember reading this interview with Rob Reiner, that they shot the "you can't handle the truth" scene many times, some of which just panning shots over the jury and such. I guess Nicholson went full Nicholson on each take, Reiner told him to save some in the tank, but Nicholson gonna Nicholson.

I'm glad someone else finally said the first one was "meh" at best. My hill is that this is perhaps the scariest book SK ever wrote, and unlike the miniseries this one could go hard R with a much larger budget, but I was just totally underwhelmed, and Pennywise was dumb as hell.

I absolutely love this movie, but I was always just unsure why they had the Kibner (Nimoy) character. *Spoiler alert* if the pod people displayed no signs of emotion, his character made no sense. He repeatedly gets mad throughout the film. Never made a lick of sense to me.

Before my wife and I got married and bought our meager home, I shared an apartment with my cousin that was a block from a Domino's. They still had the two pizzas w/2 toppings for $5.99 each, so he and I would both get one every Friday, had to have tried every 2 topping combination possible.

That's what I ended up doing at like 12 o'clock last night before bed. Nuked a couple of slices (one of each), and then nearly fell asleep on the couch, lol l.

I feel like I'd be stuck in a "the dead don't die" movie with him, and before turning, just constant shrugs to Bill Murray.

When I got married, several years ago, I was so worried that I'd lose my wedding ring, so I brought a LOTR ring along as a backup just in case. I got it for like $1 on Wish, lol

I didn't hate it.

I specifically remember in that era, all the news was that TV personality and fake tycoon Rump was going on and on about "wanting to see Obama's birth certificate" or whatever nonsense, and then in waves it came out that Bin Laden was killed. It was a wild time.

While a somewhat unmemorable remake overall, I rather enjoyed Christopher Reeves in this one.

My family used to watch that, I enjoyed it, until they won the lottery or whatever, and it became really stupid. And didn't Dan have like an affair or something, and then he died of a heart-attack or something? I honestly cannot remember.
