Re: Does anyone else take notes when watching films at cinema?

Indeed. Next-best thing is to just marry someone you can do that with and spend almost all your time with them. :shrug:

Re: Guaranteed ways to quickly go to sleep?

I can't believe I forgot it (until I read Takoma's mention of a rain machine), but yes, white noise or something similar.

We got used to sleeping with a fan on (either a literal fan or an air...

Re: Guaranteed ways to quickly go to sleep?

BTW, I don't do several of the things I suggested. :laugh: But I also get a decent amount of sleep despite some of my poor habits. But those are the things I'd change if I consistently had trouble...

Back when I wrote reviews regularly and somewhat systematically I think I did bring in a notepad once or twice, but that would've been it. I mostly just made a point to write things down shortly...

Re: Guaranteed ways to quickly go to sleep?

There's a lot of over-the-counter stuff (NyQuil, Zzzquil, etc) that helps. But for pure behavioral stuff there's a handful of things that basically everyone agrees are worth trying:

1) No screens...

I think this is exactly right, yeah. A few of these claims are obviously dependent entirely on context. I can easily imagine a version of "mentioning your porn addiction" that is in keeping with the...

I can't wait for Baldoni's lawyer to sarcastically perform a fictional conversation about sexual harassment during cross-examination. I wonder if he'll be shrewd enough to have Lively's parts read in...

Ah, but waiting for trial means less dopamine when one or the other is proven wrong about something. Plus, you get triple internet CloutPoints for getting your bet in early.

No, this one-scene, one-act play you have made up does not constitute sexual harassment. I just don't know why you're including your Baldoni-Lively fan fiction into what was ostensibly a description...

Does all this (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/21/business/media/blake-lively-justin-baldoni-it-ends-with-us.html) count as controlling information? This is the thing I asked you about point-blank at...

Eh, a little. "Fun" was the wrong word, I should've said compelling. The other two are still far more compelling. The Daniels stuff is a decent fallback.. But with a young guy there's also the...

Re: The Official NFL Thread

Now that the Lions are out all the fun storylines/possibilities are on the AFC side. I have to root for Buffalo because they've waited a long time, but a threepeat is pretty cool as a consolation...

Re: Are we in the weakest period for worldwide fictional film making?

I'm sure I've said this before but all the stuff about whether things are better or worse fails to define some really basic terms. The key one being: is this in aggregate? You could make a good case...

There is definitely a thing, where a film is bad or a disappointment, where it becomes the placeholder Bad Film and everyone just dogpiles on it for awhile. It usually is, actually, a bad film, but...
