The Dune popcorn bucket is...turning heads.

All of Us Strangers. It is quiet, somber, odd, romantic. I'll be thinking about it for a while.

I think this also tracks back to his supposed extramarital affair; you know he's always been accused of having a wandering eye...
My husband's cousin is a secret service agent and when Trump was in office, he got us passes to see Air Force One land when Trump was coming to Austin for something. We're in no way Trump fans, but thought it would be cool to see the plane come in and all that. What I remember most from this is Ken Paxton going through the crowd greeting attendees, and all I could think about was his lazy eye. I didn't know where to look. /csb

I've watched that Jon Stewart video 4 times and bawled every time.
It's rough.
Did not mean to post that meme in that post - I'd copied it to send to my son but apparently also copied it here.

If you want a good show about two Odd-Couple-y detectives thrown together to solve a murder, check out Deadloch on Prime. If for nothing else but the pilot's a cappella rendition of I Touch Myself sung by a lesbian choir.

Are we to believe that Clark saw Navarro when he said "she's awake" and started seizing in the first episode? A "time is a flat circle" thing? Or did I completely misunderstand this?

Season 2's biggest issue was it wasn't Season 1
Also, Vince Vaughn and his character's dialogue were terrible
The scene where he's dying and he and Kelly Reilly are talking to each other in his mind? dream sequence? has some of the most cringeworthy dialogue I have ever seen. I could barely watch it.

Lol I had no idea this season is only 6 episodes. What a shitty shitty season. The multiple posters who have said shit along the lines of "I don't hate it as much as the rest of you," or "it's not terrible," or anything along those lines are going on a list of posters never to trust when it comes to shows/movies

Yes! I meant to add that one but forgot by the time I made it to the end of the list.
Also don’t have the full explanation about what happened to Danvers’ husband and child. Seems like they died in an accident of some kind and it’s probably just character back story for her, but I don’t think they’ve fully explained what happened.Kali Reis is married to Brian Cohen.
Yes, she's married to a guy, but she identifies as Two-Spirit and has had same-sex relationships.

I don't hate it as much as the rest of y'all, but I can't figure out if the relationship between Danvers and Navarro is supposed to be platonic or that of ex-lovers. Or maybe maternal, in that Danvers is a mother figure to Navarro? They are too close to be just coworkers who used to be partners, IMO. Or maybe I'm completely off and it's just because they are both queer in real life.

Apropos of nothing, Christopher Eccleston really owns every role he plays. Took me forever to figure out who the hell the actor was playing Ted, even though I've seen him in a million things - I kept thinking it was Michael Rapaport but with a twist, and kicked myself when I finally looked it up.
I think the supernatural has to play into it somehow. They seem to be trying for some kind of Lost-style faith vs reason setup, although less directly than with Jack and Locke, and playing on many of the locals' acceptance of supernatural explanations. I know it's a totally different show, but I keep thinking of Northern Exposure and Joel's beliefs vs those of the locals and Natives. You have the group deaths, possibly of fright, of both the herd of caribou and the scientists in the first episode. Multiple people in different places at different times hearing "she's awake" or whatever the phrase is. The one-eyed polar bear that keeps showing up.
They have a shitload of stuff to wrap up, though, so who knows what'll happen.

She really is one of very few women who look just as good with the pixie cut as with longer hair.

Obviously I’m a full-blown, Republic of Austin, hippie woman who’s a staunch feminist, but…I don’t think it’s that crazy that Margot and Greta didn’t get nominated, while Ryan did. They were all great, but while I loved the movie, it’s a stacked field and he was the standout character, IMO. If Greta was going to win for anything, it should’ve been Little Woman, and Margot for I, Tonya. I think they’ll both get their due one day.

For an early 90s show, they did a pretty good job of dealing with issues of race amongst the natives as well as homophobia. Not perfect, but I like how Joel's super empirical science mind is challenged by Native beliefs and how the non-native locals are open to them. And I've already mentioned Maurice and how his love of musicals and fine food, among other things, are kinda gay-coded. He gets so offended when the gay couple shows up in season 2, who wants to buy something from him, and he realizes they think he's one of them, but he still likes what he likes. (Also, one half of the gay couple is Duncan from Seinfeld, but I digress.)

I can't stop thinking about it. It's also hilarious how his adaptation process seems to take less and less from its source material with each film he makes (not a spoiler). The first five or so minutes (hard to tell) almost made me feel like I was starting trip. Incredible sound design.
Pre-show felt like a Seinfeldian problem: was it okay to order popcorn during a movie like The Zone of Interest? We decided that it was fine. Didn't feel like anyone else in the theater gave it a second thought.
I've never thought about sound editing in a movie until this one. So much of the movie is about the background details - the sounds, the puffs of smoke from the train that passes by, etc. I don't think I've ever seen such a visceral movie that is so free of violence and gore.

I liked this. There were areas where I felt like it needed to dig in and commit more, but it was pretty good for Jake Johnson's directorial debut.

I'm sure you've done something by now but yes, Benadryl works - the dose is 1 mg/pound of body weight. So one Benadryl per 25 lbs. Hope he feels better!
