    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    The first four episodes of the series are a bit odd, as the actors and writers are kind of figuring things out, but it improves rapidly from there. The Vampire Council and Vampire Orgy episodes are fucking hilarious.

    That describes a good 60% of his strips anymore.

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    Looking into it, it seems the label comes from Glenn Rotkovich, owner of a gun club in Byers, Colorado. Holmes had emailed in an application to join. Glenn Rotkovich called Holmes several times throughout the following days to invite him to a mandatory orientation, but could only reach his...

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    Driving home from work, part of the exhaust came off the Subaru. Dragged for a couple blocks and came off. It was 2am and I just wanted to get home. Shaking so bad when I got in the door, thought I was going to have a heart attack.

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    I mean, particularly since mass shooter James Holmes literally claimed to have been inspired by the Joker when he shot up a theater in Aurora, Colorado. "So hey the last Batman movie to prominently feature the Joker inspired a mass shooter to murder a bunch of people. Aren't you worried that...

    Whats for Dinner?

    Took some leftover cod fillet, reheated it, cut it into pieces, shredded some cheese, had some cut lettuce, added some salsa and sour cream, put it on some soft flour tortillas and had myself some fish tacos.

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    I mean, Breaking Bad makes it very clear that Walter is not good, and in fact, it's an examination of just how his choices destroy his life and those of the people around him. No one is better off at the end of the story than the start. A shitload of people are dead - some good, quite a few bad...

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    There are people who admire characters for various reasons, even when the movie doesn't really show them in a positive light. "Goodfellas" is a positive example. The mobsters think they're awesome, but the movie shows them to be obnoxious, classless, vicious, self-destructive morons who managed...

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    I have no interest in a movie in which we're supposed to feel sympathy for a disturbed loner incel who decides that mass murder is the way he's going to improve his life. Fuck the Joker. I hope everyone involved in the movie winds up with overly chatty Uber drivers for the rest of their lives.

    Minor victory thread

    From what I remember, it was a response to the "Peter Principle" about leadership back in the 1980's, in which you take someone who was really good at their job, and promote them above their competence, making a manager out of someone with few administrative or leadership skills. A good example...

    Considering that we had mass shootings before social media became a thing, I'm going to have to disagree.

    xkcd makes me sad

    Equilibrium (2002) - 40% on RT, but audience score is 81%, so not a genuinely unpopular opinion. Godzilla King of the Monsters (2019) - pretty much the same divide in scores Guardians (2017) (aka Russian Avengers, aka the one with the were-bear with the gatling gun) - 30% RT, no audience...

    Because you listed guns - one of the necessary components of a mass shooting - as a scapegoat right next to video games, which are unrelated to mass shootings. Contextually, your statement implied that guns had no connection to mass shootings either.

    I think you'll find that guns are at least related to mass shootings.
