The Movie Critic: Tarantino's next (last?) film about Pauline Kael?

Re: The Movie Critic: Tarantino's next (last?) film about Pauline Kael

Wow. That's wild.

I don't really have a positive or negative reaction, really. On one hand it was such a strange idea for a film, and it's hard for me to imagine him making it in a way that feels...

Re: MoFo Fantasy Baseball - 2024 Season

I'm the king of "just wait, this is just statistical noise" and yet even know the past two weeks have felt like a third of the season. It's a struggle not to overreact when you know it.

Something related to the above I couldn't fit in gracefully: there's a joke from Demetri Martin (I think) that I really like: "I think the best part about being dumb is it makes magic better." Funny...

Re: MST3K: Anti-cinema?

Also, I'll just float this like I do in so many of our exchanges: it feels like there's very little hard disagreement here, just a difference in emphasis or priority.

SHOGUN (Hulu)

Re: SHOGUN (Hulu)

I'm just a few episodes behind. It's a weird mix of "very very good" but "not the kind of thing I feel the need to watch immediately." It's possible this is more about me than the show. :shrug:

I guess it depends on what you think constitutes resignation. Is having a backup plan resignation? How about just answering a slightly different question than the one literally in the title...

I don't think they're either-or. In fact I'd say it's kind of important to do both. We all know pragmatists whose principles dissolve over time and we all know idealists who never affect real change....

Head shape and type of hair matters a lot. If you mostly wear your hair really short you can save a lot of time and money, for sure. I wear mine a bit longer and it's quite thick, and I learned I...

Re: Gene Hackman, 94, being hounded by tabloid

Normally I'd tell people to keep on topic but since the original topic is just tabloids being dumb and everyone quickly came to that conclusion, sure, go off on hygiene and haircuts.

I actually sort of agree, haircut isn't the best example because you can get one of those kinda quick (just not, like, immediately).

A better example is probably just general fitness.

My philosophy is: take care of the long-term stuff, and go easy on anything short-term you could fix in a few minutes. Example: having a good haircut is important, but showering isn't, because you...
