What's crazy is this character is CLEARLY modelled on Robin Wright. Real-life woman Robin Wright. As in, "There's-A-Shortage-Of-Perfect-Breasts-In-This-World-T'would-Be-A-Pity-To-Ruin-Yours" ROBIN WRIGHT.
I am going to go insane.
I'd take it a step further. If I was President I'd appoint human ambassadors for Cephalopods, Cetaceans, Apes, and Elephants charged with oversight of habitat restoration, repatriation, and specifically earmarked foreign aid.
And I'm not even vegan; it's just objectively correct.
Do they suck now? That's a shame. I remember playing the first one and it felt like something genuinely new. Like a game specifically designed for button-mashers (like myself) to become less mashy.
You know it's great because I read your comment and was like "I don't really remember the music that much, I was more taken by the cinematography" and then I clicked on the link and the music hit and I was immediately like "oh hell yes; I remember now. This is the good shit."
Did this once when making Spanish Wedding Cookies for a middle school class project. Devastating.
I grew up in the DC suburbs and they nailed the unique type of brain worms which thrive there. In fact, it was this movie which made me "get" the Coen Brothers (actually it was the exact moment when Brad Pitt's character [redacted] which made me understand the Coen Bros' whole deal).
This is why the only form of online dating I'll tolerate is setting my AirDrop to "Everyone."
Nice. I love how tech bros revolutionized "actually you can put butter in coffee and it's not bad" (true) but then they had to come up with a bunch of other shit they could slap a trademark on.
I wonder how many women simply noped out of dating after seeing "Manhunter." The answer is not zero. Good thing I saw it, though, because I need to hang some art in my apartment and I was leaning toward cool astronomy prints BUT NOT ANYMORE.
Coincidentally I watched this movie for the first time last night and it's crazy it isn't talked about more than Silence of the Lambs. It's far, far more disturbing.
Just butter or did they add other weird shit this time? I actually think the butter isn't bad but as soon as I hear the word "adaptogens" you've lost me forever.
So I gave ya that name,
And I said goodbye,
I knew you'd have to get tough or die,
And it's that name that helped to make you strong.
It's "Cast Away" and it's not even close. Zemeckis is hit or miss in my opinion but Cast Away is his masterpiece and Hanks pulls off an incredibly difficult assignment for any actor.
Stuff like this should be part of everybody's college gen ed requirements.
I'm an extra-class ham and I gotta be honest: the test will drive you insane. There's a lot of antenna theory in there & studying for it could turn anyone into a physics crank. I'm in all other respects just a normal nerdy dude; I have no business having opinions about quantum field theory. And yet.
It's crazy because that hotel is closed down now so the video is like... archaeological preservation? It's a folk recording.
Subscribed. Older sibling here and I'm tired of lead-blocking my way through life.
I really miss being able to bet someone $1 over some random trivia and it would take a few days before you could go to the library or a computer lab to find the answer.
"these two people are incredibly horny and it ruined their lives" used to be a whole genre. you'd catch at least three or four of these movies in the theater each year!
Me in middle school:
The sideways fence slats are referred to as flipper fences in LA. They also all use the same font for the street address number. You know the one.
I haven't tried this yet but word on the street (Reddit) is it works.

You can do this on Catalina. The foxes are so much cooler than the bison, anyway.
There's a med student on YouTube who had crazy high cholesterol due to a carnivore diet, and he did an experiment where eating like 10 Oreo cookies per day for a week was more effective at lowering his cholesterol than a prescribed statin.
I remember my dad telling me the legend of Coppola's Megalopolis back in the 90's. I'm now older than he was when he told me about it.
Recently optioned by Legendary with Villeneuve slated to direct after Dune: Messiah.
