  1. Whoever created this sock account is absolutely masterful.
  2. 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).
  3. 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
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. This show is 50% great (court room stuff) and 50% terrible (family stuff). I’m still watching to the end
  8. In. Eggers is 3/3 so far.
  9. 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.
  10. 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
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. A good reminder it’s all about perspective. I went to an outdoor party in Brooklyn yesterday and everyone was complaining about the heat!
  15. Broughton and Collins were both higher rated than any interior defensive lineman signed during the Sark era.
  16. You must not be familiar with Iconoclast’s history.
  17. Fucking Rory, fuck me. The shots of the crowd behind Bryce while he’s celebrating are hilarious. Barely a fist bump
  18. Yep, definitely had a few FOH folks that were there pre pandemic.
  19. Kurumazushi is pretty good and won't break the bank.
  20. It's a good hang. Glenn Powell is funny. Adria is smoke. The recreation of the Donna/Tom Haverford dynamic was silly. It doesn't crack Linklater's top 10.
