From time to time in Los Angeles I meet people who were involved in the Nakatomi business. They always find this time of year difficult.

Remake My Dinner with Andre with Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc and Russell Crowe as Gabriele Amorth. You’re welcome, Hollywood.
whenever someone complains about Daniel Craig's southern accent in movies I think we should give them an atomic wedgie. let the man have fun

Apropos to a post I'm not going to quote: no, you are not fucking obliged to battle the fucking right on fucking social media, or go to where they are. Why make yourself miserable shouting at bots (who don't care) or trolls (who get off on your misery). Make your fucking social media enjoyable, FFS.

The “updated“ special effects in Star Trek TOS now look as cheesy as the original effects they replaced.

All the fountain pen discussions I’m seeing here and there makes me wonder if I’d have had a better time in school if I’d learned to use them earlier. It wouldn’t have fixed everything, but at least the writing part might have been less of an ordeal.

One of the funniest parts of Assassins Creed: Odyssey is the mission where you have to entertain a bunch of kids by telling a story. You're able, through quick time prompts, to tell the story of Clash of the Titans. The kids hate it.
Grew up with no cable or broadcast tv and 6 or 7 vhs tapes. Probably seen this 500 times.

One of my all-time favorite Onion stories.

RIP Frank Gehry, and thank you for ensuring that anyone who drives east toward the Weisman Art Museum near sunset is permanently blinded by concentrated reflected sunlight.

I still think Star Trek Beyond is one of the most underrated pieces of Star Trek media out there

Also it shows how badly we were robbed of that cast by those first two movies

Johnny Blaze and Carter Slade blasting across the desert to “Ghost Riders in the Sky.”
Defend a terrible film by picking something from it that saves it.
