You had to share a seat with someone? Airlines getting shittier and shittier.

Watching Triangle of Sadness with the whole family.

The dinner check scene at the beginning is totally my wife’s jam, and now she’s in for the long haul.

She may feel differently about another dinner scene but we’ll see!

We enjoyed it, but she was probably they most nonplussed by the ending

I’d give it a 4 out of 5: provocative and a fun time, but not a masterpiece imo

Dissenting reviews include that of Richard Brody for The New Yorker , who dismissed it as a “sickly cynical feature-length directorial pitch reel for a Marvel movie”[91], and that of Peter Bradshaw for The Guardian, who described it as “a formless splurge of Nothing Nowhere Over a Long Period of Time”.[92]

The EEAAO backlash is the most boring this ever. Same things happens every year. Early in the year a film gain popularity and critical acclaim. Some people see it months later and either want to be contrarian or have had it built up so much if can’t live up to the hype. Zzzzzz.

Twisted Twerp, Dwarve, is here for this. Got taken over by chaotic war hammer. DM gave me the option of driving the chaos vs him rolling dice. My friends were very unhappy until they were able to figure why TT was being such an asshole and then they threw the war hammer in a bottomless pit.

Good times.

What’s a great movie to watch with the sound on mute?

Captions on or off?

Before tonight’s Oscars, why not dive into the Just the Gist archives for their episode on the 1989 Academy Awards, aka THE WORST OSCARS IN HISTORY?!?!

Just saw a Facebook post giving a heads-up for extras casting calls for a new Netflix film “Back in Action.”

That’s not interesting in and of itself. The interesting part is it starts Jamie Foxx and… Cameron Diaz. She hasn’t done anything in almost a decade.

There was little left of the cinematic mountain to climb after the majesty of The Counselor, written by Cormac McCarthy and directed by Ridley Scott.

This must have quite a script!

I once saw her in an airport. She was sitting directly across from me at the gate waiting area eating potato chips, and I didn’t realize who she was until my wife told me later.
