Fall of the House of Usher- Netflix
I have some thoughts but I don't know how bookfaggy we want to go so I'll spoiler. I'm 4 episodes in and the most useful analysis, IMO, comes from Poe's stories.

Fall of the House of Usher- Netflix
A bunch of those kids are in Fall of the House of Usher. I liked Midnight Club enough but it could've been because of 90s nostalgia. It does end on a cliffhanger and they didn't renew it, fyi.

Ok, we need an Oscar thread after that Will Smith/Chris Rock moment
If he didn't fuck Nia Long when they were together on Fresh Prince, then everything I thought I knew about the world is a lie.

What We Do In The Shadows (Show)
Definitely a top 3 episode for me. So much greatness. "I've never been to pride. But...I don't think Sean has either."

What We Do In The Shadows (Show)
I actually think it's Stede.

Netflix Recommendations
Adam and the horses cracked me up. "Their faces are a totally normal size." 😂 I did shed tears in the finale. For the most part*, it was a great way to wrap everything up. And I loved Isaac's character and was glad to see him have a major role this season. *

Dumb Money w/ Paul Dano
- Dumb Money w/ Paul Dano
My teenager and I both really enjoyed it. Great cast and pretty funny.- "only murders in the building" on hulu
Yeah, I thought they said this was the last season.- "only murders in the building" on hulu
I love that they got Williams back there getting into it and jamming to his song. She's a Tony-nominated actress IRL.- What We Do In The Shadows (Show)
- Is There A Dr in the House - Newborn Pneumonia
We live just across Mopac from St. Davids and have been there with both kids. You're in great hands and I'm so glad to hear she's doing better. And fwiw, my oldest was full-term but unexpectedly ended up in the NICU at birth with breathing problems (this was at Seton Main, not St. Davids) and today he's a thriving 15-year-old. Thinking about y'all.- up in horsey heaven
You see that cow up there? It's a horse. Yeah, because he followed his dreams.- margot robbie is "barbie" - july 2023
The fascist line might be my favorite quote from the movie.- Poor Things -- Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, Mark Ruffalo
Her eyebrows should get their own credit.- Halloween/Horror Movie Thread
I started a thread on Beau is Afraid here back when it first came out. It's a great movie, but definitely not horror - more like a 3-hour fever dream. Haven't seen Hush yet but I love Mike Flanagan - Oculus is great. Also, Absentia is worth seeking out. It's really low-budget and I think was his first movie, but nice and creepy.- Halloween/Horror Movie Thread
My son is very excited about this because he loves the game, and I'm having a hard time figuring out if this will be anything approaching kid-appropriate. Rotten Tomatoes says it's PG-13, but it also says "strong violent content." They need to pick a lane.- Halloween/Horror Movie Thread
Talk to Me is amazing. Knock at the Cabin is horseshit, even though Dave Bautista is great in it - at most you could call it a drama/thriller, but it's in no way a horror movie. And (slight spoiler) I loved Saint Maud, and it has a great final scene.- HISD - State of Texas to Takeover School District
This is from an HISD teacher in the Facebook support group for parents/teachers who oppose the takeover (Supporters of HISD Magnets and Budget Accountability). I purposely left off the teacher's name. Some key WTF points: All internal doors must be open at all times (seriously, WTF) No student free-writing/journaling No "weak readers" can read aloud because it models disfluency No dimming classroom lights And of course there's the issue of closing libraries to turn them into detention centers. Even if the state could justify their takeover on the grounds of improving performance, how in God's name will any of the above improve performance? How is this anything but a blatant power grab? As an Austin ISD parent I am truly concerned that this is going to be us in the very near future.- Halloween/Horror Movie Thread
Random story - my oldest son watched Poltergeist a few years back with my SIL. When they got to the part where they start reciting the Lord's Prayer during the bird's funeral, my non-religious child goes "Isn't that Metallica?" 😂 That movie was amazing and I wish more people would watch it. It's like two separate movies - first, a calm relationship drama, and then the last half is like if a death metal album came to life. I mean, at one point To this list I'll add Evil Dead Rise Talk to Me Barbarian Malignant- Русский корабль - иди нахуй
WSJ is saying that there were 10 people onboard and all were killed.- Blastfurnace 2023
- Oppenheimer (Nolan)
What's crazy to me is that Alden Ehrenreich's character doesn't even have a name - he's credited as "Senate Aide."- 2023 Rain Thread
I fucking love that movie. /csb- do you ever yearn?
It had no face. No personality. - Dumb Money w/ Paul Dano
