They need these guns to protect themselves against an authoritarian takeover of their government!
No, no, not the CURRENT one … the imaginary one … /s

I was making a bad joke about they’re expected in sports games but I just refuse to play EA sports games in general.
I dislike how they’re all small iterations every year and filled with microtransactions.

Only one I can justify is the EA sports games. Mainly because I refuse to play those games.

I know this is a shitpost, but I’m assuming someone fabricated that message on top of a picture of two people. In which case, I don’t like sharing this as it’s basically cyberbullying.

It’s kinda why these types of posts should probably be discouraged. Posts like these should have sources.

You should see the interviews with some of these guys afterwards. They were saying how they hated how people saw them on the internet and assumed they were terrible people without knowing them. Yes, the racists were upset about being pre-judged.

I’m an 80s kid (so barely Gen X) but I did miss a lot of movies … didn’t have the ability to see whatever movie I wanted at my age. However, there’s been so many references to these “formative” movies I’ve noticed throughout the decades … so recently, I don’t know what’s wrong with me but instead of going through a lot of the soulness Netflix movies (yes, I know there are a LOT of gems too) … what I’ve decided to do is watch a lot of these classics and then I watch YouTube analysis/review videos of them. So even though I may not get to see people talk about the impact it had on them.
You just listed St Elmo’s Fire so I may have to add that to my list.

Okay, I don’t know if it sounds bad but I saw the Taking of Pelham 1-2-3 (2009) with John Travolta and Denzel Washington. I can’t say I enjoyed it but I didn’t dislike it either.
I actually didn’t know there was a 1970s version. It’s definitely on my list! Thanks!

Thanks for your insight. I watched Ghost In The Shell this year as a part of my blast of the past viewings. I felt if I watched it closer to when it came out I would have had my mind blown. Now, I’m still impressed with what they came out with but I definitely can’t appreciate it in the same way.
I’ve also noticed how some older movies can feel quite sexist or abusive towards women. However I still like watching them regardless. I still like seeing what the zeitgeist was at the time. I think Breakfast Club has a lot of pop culture references to it as well and I enjoy catching up on those (albeit decades late). There’s so many movies that pierce the cultural barrier lately (or it could be my lack of keeping up) so I enjoy seeing it. So I’ll keep what you said in mind! 🫡
- Comment on molly for better socials 4 weeks ago:
I’ve never seen the Breakfast Club. I went through some oldies recently like: Cape Fear, Chinatown, The Thing, Primal Fear, Airplane …
Anyone that’s seen it, can you tell me if it’s still worth catching up?

Wouldn’t be if it was anyone besides the Republicans. If Bernie was president you’d hear about how this is what socialism gives you and wouldn’t STFU about it.

He’ll hire one of his crocked cronies to paint the wall a different colour for a shit load of tax payer dollars and then blame the Dems for not changing it when it was working.

I heard Vince Gilligan who was working on the script ditched Hancock half way to do Breaking Bad. I think the studio altered his script afterwards which is likely what lead to the weirdness.

Not fully. I only watched the snippets that LegalEagle showed of the before and after … I think he tried publishing them but I think they were taken down?
Also part 3 of these videos have been blocked too. It’s sorta wild.

I’m definitely going to visit next year … just putting away money for now. I’ll see if I can add Kunming to the list, thanks!
I can’t wait to eat more food. My Cantonese is “okay” but my Mandarin is garbage … I’m gonna spend the next year or so watching dramas and stuff to catch up!
