  1. Holy shit, actual player info in a commitment thread instead of the same lame ass gifs and memes. Machinator for president!
  2. The Beast (available on Criterion). One of the best 2024 flicks I’ve seen. Lea Seydoux, my god Also really liked I Saw the TV Glow, Love Lies Bleeding and Longlegs. Maxxxine was good not great.
  3. The bread and everything else in that photo come from the farmer’s market in my neighborhood. Sadly I do not have a baker’s touch
  4. Calendar turns to August, y’all MFs know what to do
  5. It’s really amazing to watch. Several of my colleagues are former law school classmates of JD. Most of them say he was a pretty generic, dweeby but harmless guy at YLS. You never know what’s lurking underneath. On the other hand, they’ve all described his wife as “soulless” even back then, so seems like a match made in heaven.
  6. LeBron, Duncan, Kobe, Steph, Shaq, KD, Jokic, Dirk, Wade, Garnett.
  7. I bet this joke went hard in the smith county Facebook group.
  8. Extremely successful private sector career? Didn’t he spend like 2.5 years a McKinsey before jumping ship to the public sector? Not that I disagree with your overall point. He needs to be a heavy hitter on the campaign trail.
  9. I went to bed around 10pm with a team of juniors cranking away on a thing a client asked for by noon today. At 3am I start getting panicked phone calls from the team that all computers have crashed. Then the IT backup call alerts start. Still down, fun morning!
  10. Whoever created this sock account is absolutely masterful.
  11. The interview with Oz at the end of that episode is really, really great. Interesting deep dive into the creative process and intent of this movie (even if, for me, some of the intent really didn't come through).
  12. You could probably skip. The cinematography was really interesting, sort of like if Malick shot a B movie (or at least that’s what they were going for). But yeah, there are at least 2 absolutely gnarly kills
  13. Roughly in order for me, Speak No Evil, Barbarian, X, Terrifier 2, The Sadness, Resurrection, Pearl, Crimes of the Future, Nope (sort of ish, maybe more sci-fi), Smile, Nanny, Men, Watcher, Black Phone. And then even some dumb horror comedy stuff like The Menu, Bodies x3, Fresh and Scream were pretty good. On Evil Dead Rise, nothing wrong with it for sure, I think I’m just kind of tired of the set up at this point.
  14. I think it’s a product of how tremendous 2021 and 2022 were. Of course, I had my first child in December of 22 and I definitely watch less now, so maybe I’m just out of the loop. But last year, for example, I only loved When Evil Lurks and Talk to Me. Infinity Pool, No One Will Save You, Sick and Huesera were aight, Skinamarink was what it was, and then it was a bunch of meh to bad like Evil Dead Rise, Birth/Rebirth, Cobweb (hated it), Scream 6 and Perpetrator. This year, First Omen is the only thing I’ve really loved. In A Violent Nature was pretty cool, and Sanctuary and Late Night with the Devil were both ok. Abigail was hot garbage. But I’m all in on Longlegs, Maxxxine, Smile 2 and, of course Nosferatu, so fingers crossed.
  15. You look at America over there and it’s all about the tradition of having a man with one foot in a casket be the last line of defense against the end of western democracy.
  16. This show is 50% great (court room stuff) and 50% terrible (family stuff). I’m still watching to the end
  17. In. Eggers is 3/3 so far.
  18. Have tickets for next Saturday night, can’t wait. It’s been a mid last 18 months or so for horror. Hopefully this lives up to the hype.
  19. A few recent watches: In A Violent Nature (2024) - Malick meets low budget slasher. Interesting flick. Some gnarly kills Aliens - A masterpiece, of course Point Break - Another masterpiece, of course The Watchers (2024) - absolute fucking garbage California Split - would love to hang with these gents First Omen (2024) - this movie had no business being as good as it is
  20. Not a perfect or great movie by any stretch, but I thought this was much better than the second, or at least had more new and interesting things to say than the second. This movie is much more focused on the human element (death, grief, etc.) than the alien/apocalyptic world it occupies (although there is plenty of that), and I thought Nyongo was fantastic. It’s a sad movie, and I’m not surprised it doesn’t play well with the franchise/popcorn crowd it will attract.
  21. Because it's very difficult to do? We missed on Caldwell, we missed on Williams, we missed on Toia. We lost Trill Carter. We signed a bunch of mid guys that hopefully can keep us average at the position when combined with Collins and, I guess, Broughton. What we need most (in addition to elevating our DL recruiting generally) is some combination of Bledsoe, January and/or Mitchel to hit next year. Otherwise it looks really bleak.
  22. Half the posters on this board spent the better part of the 2010s hyping up JAG recruits like Gerald Wilbon and Reese Moore. It’s actually ok to let pessimism be as unchecked as optimism.
