  1. So much good stuff. My gosh I’m so happy right now.
  2. You’re gonna love it! I can’t wait to see it!
  3. The BEST movie I've never seen. Strong to quite strong stuff.
  4. Tool is a thing that you either grow out of after ninth grade, or you wait lifetimes to hear new gnarly Elmo jag rock tunes that are 18 mins a pop every 12 years or so. Not very good stuff.
  5. Ok, it’s happening. It’s happening.
  6. Can’t say. I only eat Armenian rotisserie chicken. Sounds like some serious stuff though.
  7. Hey, so, if anyone’s got any stuff needs grading, I’m grading all kinds of stuff right now.
  8. Stuff looks pretty good from JO so far.
  9. This is good stuff. Really good stuff.
  10. Just go to a damn bar. Live it up.
  11. Daniel Johnston. Pure art. Real beauty. Rest In Peace.
  12. I love the ringer. It seems as though Bill Simmons rubs some the wrong way, but I tend to agree with him most of the time. Shea Serrano is an American treasure. I’d recommend just about any podcast that the Ringer offers.
  13. Back when I was a lad, Chuck E Cheese was tons of fun. These days...it’s still fun I guess, just different.
  14. This is some kinda pizza forum?
  15. But those aren’t real stories. None of them. which is pretty much, the point I tried to make above.
  16. QT movies, in general, are violent as hell. That’s true, and I completely understand that people sometimes don’t have the stomach for it. However, the way that he uses violence deserves a fair analysis, pleasant or not. I agree that sensational violence is a pretty old well that he keeps going back to, but I also believe that it is a story telling tool that he has mastered. To me, QT consistently uses the fantasy of violence to underscore its shadow- that is, true crime, historical/systemic and cultural violence. His movies are just movies, but our ideological reference for violence, death, tragedy, is also informed by reality. An example: in Django Unchained, what is the viewer intended to find more disturbing: the fetishisized blood bath of a finale, or the mosaic of suppressed memories of violent indentured servitude? Just my two cents. I’m not way into blood and gore either, tbh.
  17. I could write a book about Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood. And, I think maybe I will. Unbelievable film. Had he not been cursed by making his masterpiece as a 30-year old cinematic anarchist, I would say this is QT’s highest achievement. I say that as a huge fan of almost everything he’s ever made.
  18. Yay for Smeltzer! My favorite Twin! That’s a golldern ballplayer.
  19. I would have traded the farm for Noah Syndergaard with two more seasons on the books. I would have done it four years ago. I would have done that three years ago. I would have done it last year, and I would have done it today.
