Checked out a comic book store that I didn’t know existed like 10 minutes from my house tonight. Spent too much money.

 

lol ain’t that how it goes sometimes.

If you didn’t know, we have a comics thread: Comic Books • forum.chorus.fm

 

if you can’t open, 1 is the hunger games

 

It is pretty similar to what you see on the IMDb list or other mass user lists.

 

Still can't believe they haven't remade Your Name

 

Did yesterday’s argument chase grimace off the site?

 

He's probably doing the smart thing and taking a break from how exhausting this place can be sometimes.

 

I mean, probably not as an isolated incident, but as an example of things that annoy him more than a website that’s supposed to be fun / relaxing should, and make him feel like he needs a break

Idk I can relate I just took a break in Jan / first half of Feb lol. And probably won’t return to how much I was posting before

 

Couldn't we pool our money together and buy Warner Bros.?

 

The majority of whatever happened was while I was asleep so I missed the meat of it all

 

And yet it somehow is all your fault

 

Casablanca too low imo. Hunger Games joke was funny though.

 

I'm craving a rewatch soon

 

It gives me great joy when I see lists like this, and they exclude "On The Waterfront", a film that is considered a classic despite being a mind-numbing bore

 

On the Waterfront is great, Brando’s performance is one of my favorites ever

 

I’ve seen it twice now in two different film study classes and both times I just hated it so much

 

Somehow only watched Casablanca recently for the first time - Rick is kind of an asshole.

 

On the Waterfront is a lot more interesting than Casablanca. Part of it is the backstory of why Kazan made it, though.

 

if you watch live sports you see a lot more ads for random ass network tv like this

 

The backstory for Casablanca is pretty damn cool too. Imagine them making that and releasing it during WW2 with actual refugees in minor roles. And the whole thing being a metaphor for America’s abstaining is a bold political statement. I did not connect with the romance but as a historical document, it’s pretty sick

have not seen On the Waterfront yet

 

Always funny to see Jim Nantz try to convince me that he's interested in these shows

 

one more reason not to watch sports, jk I'm the one person who watches Animal Control

 

Eric Heisserer (Arrival) wrote a pretty great adaptation like 8 years ago that apparently never got any traction.
