    The Fast Food Thread

    Small, almost off the grid creameries are some of the best in the world. The trick is to find the creamery that also sells compost! That's freshness. Maybe with a side of Listeria. But who cares?

    The Fast Food Thread

    Dude- no comparison. Ben & Jerry's was perhaps some of the best ice cream in the world when it was run by the two of them out of Vermont. They would throw some stellar parties too at Stowe and Sugarbush. Even since they sold to Unilever, they have maintained some pretty good quality control...

    Monkey Man (2024)

    I watched it. Spronk did it correctly-- there are two things that would have made this movie better: 1) Watching it in 2 segments or 2) Dumping 40%-50% of the movie in editing Dev Patel is very cool. I also thought it was going to be Hindu John Wick. But it is more political...

    Doctor Who

    The show is just awful... Trying so hard to be different yet the best it can pull off is pandering to a Tom Baker era villain and being derivative? And did we really need MORE of the doctor crying, when he clearly doesn't give a shit about people dying all around him? And what did all the...

    And I bet they would 69 each other in front of him rather than do anything else for him (except spend his cash).

    Doctor Who

    Rogue; WTF?!?! I cringed. Multiple times. It is really sad because there was a really good episode, with really good characters, in there (once again). It is all somewhere beneath the over-the-top, rub-it-in-you-face like you would a dog to his own piss, gay-ness. This episode had good...

    Arcane

    Arcane is beautiful art. Amazing show that you can screen freeze almost any scene and hang it on your wall as a Masterpiece work of steampunk illustration. Great world-building too. I hope they don't fuck it up. But how many times can you make lightning in a bottle?

    Prey

    Woke as it is, it is a great, fun movie. Premise is fresh, despite the intellectual property being stale. The film is well-paced and near perfect for what it is. It is no easy task these days to make the "Thelma and Louise" and "Dirty Harry" crowd happy in a single movie (let alone a single...

    The Family Man

    Any one else watching this? It's pretty darn good, despite some flaws with pacing. Reminds me a lot of Jean LeCarre's stuff. the acting is really good, plot is convoluted and ambiguous. Seems to have a good budget too. Not Bollywood, that's for certain. Plus, it's hard to figure out who the...

    Doctor Who

    Ugh... It was watchable but that's all. Science fiction, when it is topical and poignant yet still not paper thin (eg., "1984" "Level 7"...) is important and fun. Yet somehow this show is neither. Not for lack of acting talent and budget, that's for sure. This episode looked and sounded great...

    Playstation 5

    I got one at a 24 hour Walmart. Loved it for Horizon Zero Dawn. I gave up on Spider Man Mike Morales because the controls were too complicated for me. Plus, it felt like I was part of some story-line that was happening without me. I bought The Last of Us but it bummed me out more than I enjoyed...

    Very rustled... Human behavior has taken a nasty turn on sooooooo many levels. That's a treatise in itself. I was in the supermarket - one of those semi-fancy ones that has their own sushi bar and pizza shop, rotisserie/fried chicken place, pharmacy, etc etc. in the store. They even a nice...

    TV shows that could no longer exist

    Rockford Files couldn't be made today because it required a heck of a lot of writing talent and complicated scripts written by single human beings. Love Boat couldn't be made today. White Doctor, white captain. gross heterosexual sex. Elitists on a boat. Dukes of Hazard- non inbred (and some...

    Doctor Who

    It's been done before (and quite successfully). I don't think for a second that none of the writers or producers of the show were unaware of the Star Trek TNG 's episode "The Inner Light" where Picard lives an entire lifetime in a minute. It was very effective/believable in that episode. In...

    Doctor Who

    Watched 73 yards. Yup- it was good. A bit formulaic now to have the best Doctor Who episodes be sans Doctor Who, but I'll take it. Blink v 2.0 a bit, but entertaining and mildly delightful. The closing score with the grand piano is great. Plus, they are clearly setting up Ruby being integral to...

    Late Night with the Devil (2024)

    This was a very impressive film. Very impressive; everything about it was remarkable. The production values, the acting, the costumes, all of it was exceptional. It probably should be watched on a TV in a bedroom, however... Other than that (and that "found footage theme" which I always find a...
