What an a-hole. He is lucky Alan was kind to him. If he weren't a celebrity there would be no question that the neighbor was harassing a dad and his two children.

I thought it was great fun. it didn't even try to be anything other than a Die Hard rip-off with an insanely hot Daisy Ridley. It could have stood a little tighter pacing (like 30 minutes shorter or 30 minutes more of Daisy killing dudes). And yes, the script could have been written by AI or...

I read the book and it was "light reading" disguised as Carl Sagan. I enjoyed it. But I would say it's audience is closer to Harry Potter or "Doc Savage" level readers (Remember "Doc Savage?") I really don't know how they will make it into a compelling film, but I'll watch it when it gets to...

I am 100% certain I HAVE been there. But from the ground it was way less cool.

Me too!!!

Just added to my list! TY

He is a brilliant narrator . And a GREAT vampire. I love him. But he isn't Harry Dresden the way Dick Hill IS Jack Reacher!

I just ordered it. I have read or listened to every novel and short story. I LOVE Harry Dresden. He is an imperfect character/wizard in a world of big bads, he is pretty tame. But he has a heart of gold and he always feels like someone who "walks with you" literally rather than be "other...

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1233413-sinners Over-hyped... Reminded me of "from Dusk to Dawn" without as much charisma. Plus the ending-- the ending (not the post/during credit sequence) was unnecessary. A lot of elements to the film that made it enjoyable to watch, but in actually, it...

I am rewatching "Miami Vice." Although much of it doesn't age particularly well, the series is phenomenally groundbreaking in so many ways. Mann is really impressively ahead of his time (if not a producer of his own future-culture). Plus, some of the episodes and themes have me in awe. (check...

we are a failed society

Doctors get sued all the time. How is it that chiropractors don't have a line of attorneys (or coroners) following them around?

I'd hit both of them. And then mess with her psychopathology big time.

Having a "best 5" is way more than most directors. It's also a hell of a good Virtual Pinball Machine (I don't think it was ever a real machine, but it may have been): https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/11309-big-trouble-in-little-china/

Wow- I just watched it (Skyfall). Man... I dunno what to say. I just HATE James Bond in the 21st century. It's like he doesn't belong here. Think Austin Powers. When you TRY to force the character into the moral background it just doesn't work at all. Just get rid of the idea of James Bond...

I thought it was based on John Campbell's story, "Who Goes There?" 1938.

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/6978-big-trouble-in-little-china Even though he was/is considered to be a "second rate" director in his prime, his works hold up. He will be remembered fondly as a film genius. (John Carpenter).

Any animal rescue folks know the impact of genes. There are certain breeds that you cannot mix with other rescue animals: The strong prey drives in certain breeds, such as Greyhounds, Terriers, and some hunting breeds like the Weimaraners, for example-- they cannot (and should not) be...

It's been done. Repeatedly. Remember "The Bell Curve?" But the often quoted example of two plants--- one given light and nutrition and the other starved, is a flawed model, because no matter how much you feed either plant, they will reach an genetically derived limit. No "Jack & the Beanstalk"...

Watson's Comments: In a 2007 interview and a subsequent 2019 documentary, Watson stated that he was "inherently gloomy" about Africa's prospects because Western policies assumed Black people had the same intelligence as white people, an idea he claimed was not supported by testing data. He...

When science is not scientific... He is amongst the greatest scientific minds in history. He could not possibly have been correct on his views regarding the inheritance of intelligence. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/science/james-watson-dead.html

That is precisely what happened last New Year's eve when the son of "the strip club king" got one for his birthday and hit my neighbor's tree at about 120 mph (our street is one block long). No arrests, either. My neighbor cried for the loss of his cherry tree. But the accident sounded like a...

It's phenomenal. Unbelievable geopolitical thriller with the depth and complexity of LeCarre. She is brilliant. And it's her first novel. A GREAT read.

MY ROOM!! Except no turntable (and YooHoo instead of Pepsi)

sometimes you have to buy that t-shirt!

Despite all the barfs this will incur, I'm buying 50 goth girls!

I just spent time in Canada on a mixed business/vacation in Alberta. I don't know what it is, but Canadians maybe the best people/have the best personalities in the world.

I am getting old.

Please share the game gif!

I get PTSD just looking at the trailer. I was stuck in so MANY places during the first game. HOURS and HOURS in what were essentially "time loops" trying to get through certain parts over and over and over again. Sometimes checking the internet and seeing what I had to do (or might be doing...
