Jinx is heavily shimmered up. That's probably as good of an explanation as anything for why she resisted for so long.

How do you think the electorate becomes this way? It's not because of some innate failure of humans. It's because of the massive alienation that has systematically occurred over the past 50+ years (and really since WW2) as a result of deliberate policies that have decimated communities, destroyed public education, massively widened the wage gap, ruined the housing market, and is wiping out the environment. Among many other things

Policies that are frequently pushed by Republicans, but sometimes supported and often not repudiated properly by Democrats.

Pachinko is the best show airing right now imo. Phenomenal writing, directing, and acting. Minha Kim is absolutely incredible.

Fern and Stark are technically in the 18-20 age range though. And fairly teenage-y. But I agree it does explore a lot of more "mature" themes.

That's strange. I'd be interested to know how and what you searched for so I can maybe improve how easy it is for people to find [email protected].

Had an older 65 inch 1080p tv that died. So now we watch on my 32 inch 4k monitor. Using a pair of iLoud Micro speakers.

Will eventually get a new TV and proper sound setup.

Goddamn that's sexy

I watched it with some friends at one of their houses. Halfway through one of them said out loud: "This is kind of shit isn't it?" I think that basically sums up my feelings on it. I won't deny that they tried to explore some important themes but it's such an unmemorable mess that I can't even remember a few years out if they were successful at all. What I do remember is how uninspired and boring so much of the film was. Especially the fight scenes which are such an important core of the Matrix franchise.

I think they made it very clear early in the movie in a meta way through Neo's job that nobody really wanted to make it but that they were more or less forced to by Warner Bros. And it seems like it was ultimately made by Lana Wachowski as a fuck you to the studio and went out of its way to piss off the audience.

Deadpool & Wolverine was solid. If you liked the first 2 you'll like this one. If you didn't then you'll probably not like this one either, unless you're just a huge Wolverine fan. It very much is a Deadpool movie first and foremost for all the good and bad that entails. The one advantage this one has over the previous 2 is that there is some real pathos here courtesy of Hugh Jackman being a very good actor. I think the Cable stuff from the second film kind of touches on similar emotions but it's better done here.

A Quiet Place: Day One was excellent. I really liked this movie. They captured the tension and confusion of the situation phenomenally. Excellent acting, great set pieces, tight plot. I think the bar scene was incredibly heartfelt. It does kind of struggle with the same issue that the other movies do in that how the monsters work doesn't really make a whole lot of sense if you really think about it. But that's not really what the movie is about and it's easy to overlook when you're watching.

One of my earliest memories is watching this movie as a kid and being absolutely enthralled by Cameron Diaz.

You're not wrong. There was a lot of talk about that during the airing of the show. The show creator was a big Bush supporter so I'm not surprised by his depiction.

There have even been actual studies done that show that entertainment media depicting torture as positive increase viewers stated support of torture.

Haven't horror movies consistently done really well in the Box Office despite the general downturn that's happened?
