They want to murder all Palestinians and lay exclusive claim to the Holy Land.

In case anyone is wondering who the bad guys (still) are.

Quick everyone! Let's rush to defend Disney based on a technicality, even though they've been creatively bankrupt for years and no one watches MCU shows.

They're using as much AI as possible now that there's open revolt from many of the world's top CGI effects studios.

I'll use my Win 10 machine as the daily driver until the very last day of support. I game in 1080, and my 6gb 1060 coupled with my 6700k blows all but the very latest and most demanding games out of the water.

By the time I'm strong armed into Win 11, there might be a better option by then, but at the very least it will be a nice cheap time to upgrade to 2-3 year old hardware so I can continue playing factorio, but in 1440 instead of 1080.

2001 A Space Odyssey is still 100% watchable and just as thought provoking today as it was in the 70s.

Many people say that Sofia Coppola ruined the movie for them, but IMO it's more so the stark contrast between a young/middle aged Michael coming into his own in the 1st 2 movies, and a senior citizen Michael regretful of his choices in the final act. The party comes to a close and we're reminded of the terminus of all things.

IMHO, while most fans of the series say Part 1 is the best, Part 2 with De Niro as Young Vito is arguably far superior. The first movie is quite dry and you really have to be paying attention to names and conversations, while the 2nd movie has a lot more going for it dynamically and is easier to follow.

Francis Ford Coppola.

It's a masterclass in acting, cinematography, and soundtracking. Not only that, but Mario Puzo's novel which came out shortly before the movie was produced was a smash hit.

In the 70s, movies didn't look like The Godfather. They looked like weird objective cameras put on a tripod and just filming actors, with not as much thought put into the "feel" of the film. FFC (as well as other directors such as Hitchcock and Kubrick) essentially invented modern cinematography. Remember watching Avatar for the first time? It was kind of like that for movie going audiences.

It was always hailed as an "epic drama" so you have to kind of temper your expectations based off that. It's not a "murder a minute" gangster flick like a Scorsese picture.

How could anyone trust Matt Gaetz given how publicly ghoulish he is at literally every waking moment?

As opposed to a week ago when Twitter was known as the hub of all rational and nuanced discussion.

So when Alex Jones sells bullshit medicine it's fine?

Not only does pink girl have 5 knuckles where one would expect to find only 4, but she's also somehow in the drivers seat at the same time as Glasses. And she's wearing her backpack while also seated.

Man, AI sucks.

state of alt-right politics.

"Parents rights!"

To what exactly? Yall weren't teaching them human sexuality because of skydaddy, so kids were getting pregnant and spreading STDs. Schools took that responsibility onto their shoulders. You know what happened? Teen pregnancy, child molestation, and STDs plummeted.

Huh. I could be wrong. But I think I see what all the noise is about....

There would have been hundreds of pages of contracts signed lmao

How do you do fellow kids? No cap, did you fill up your Mercedes CLK350 with Premium while bussin it to the new Megan Thee Stallion record? Remember to watch Formula 1 on digital cable!

That's the only take from Xbox players about this merger that I can get behind.

So not an ABK title then?
