Re: Watching Movies Alone with crumbsroom

Sorry crumbs. He looks lovely. I have a fluffy black cat as well and they're just gorgeous creatures.

Nothing to really say when a beloved pet dies. It's so sad we outlive them, but there's a tiny...

When I was a kid, maybe around 12, I used to go sleep over at friends' houses. Most of these other kids were my friend because they lived very near us, usually no more than a block away. One kid in...

This is really well put.

I have a really strong aversion to satire/mocking/whatever that's just a reproduction of the thing. It's just so damn easy to simply reference something. It's the...

Have to agree with Takoma on the characters being shallow, Monae's in particular. Her defining attribute is that she's virtuous. We can argue that this kind of film can be perfectly fine with shallow...

I do wanna specifically highlight what crumbs is trying to say, though, where nothing quite works. While it's incredibly hard to describe, I think I know what he's talking about, and it is maddening....

Re: Watching Movies Alone with crumbsroom
