For me, I could watch Muppet Treasure Island over and over. The perfect movie.

For a movie I need to play for others: A Goofy Movie.

I'm open to trying this after reading your explanation. The Lego Movie was also surprisingly amazing.

Yes, no one should be watching this without the shenanigans. You need to be in a certain silly, horny mood with some added alcohol if you're still too cool for school, and a group of others who feel the same and have memorized the callbacks.

I love finding those excellent movies that have somehow floated just below the surface of the consciousness of my sphere of community.

Aren't those tomato meter scores the aggregate of critic reviews? On cult classics, low-brow, or franchises with baggage, the user reviews are way more likely to match the vibe of a movie.

Funnily enough, it's almost the complete opposite for independent movies made for "film people". Or plots that require critical thinking or deep attention (the latter is my own Achilles' heel)--where the user score is garbage, but the critic score (and thus, the tomato meter) is more likely to match your own (if you're into movies like that).

Hell, I'm always down to watch Incredibles just for the soundtrack and Edna Mode.

This reminds me of one definition of art: that it creates an emotion or reaction in the viewer.

Not that this movie in particular is art lol. Feels like a fetish film, if anything.

Those movies are so great. Probably stick with the G and PG options if there's a young kid in the mix (thinking of Princess Mononoke, which is PG-13, IIRC). The PG ones often have just the right amount of "safe-scary" elements that it absolutely grabs their attention. Great movies for grown-up/kid conversation-starters to boot, just due to the deep, rich, human themes they explore.

I just got flashbacks to a 2000 caravan I had that had a special label prompting that it could handle e85. Man, that car suuuucked.

As someone from the flyover states, the subsidies and the monstrous amount of lobbying done by the ag industry are exhausting, but are the majority of the reason behind why the information you're seeing seems sketchy. Take any pro-e85 argument with that in mind.

Also, as a side note, you don't need to be perfect to have an opinion :) Your disclaimer is about basic research literacy so don't fear adding to a discussion because someone might engage in bad faith. And yes, I am projecting my own anxiety onto my perception of your statement, lol.

Regarding freedom of speech, banning TikTok is not the government oppressing your rights to say things.

Yes yes yes. The best part of a train, and the part worth the extra time and money, is a horizontal sleeping situation. I can't sleep sitting up or my back and neck destroy any joy that might otherwise have come from traveling.

Empire Builder might have ok trains but the track is TERRIBLE.

I thought the image on your monitor was the picture you are currently taking and this was camera inception.

Dude, put content warnings on this. I have trauma from shared drives and fucking Jared leaving the Important File open on his locked computer while he takes off for a week, locking out access to anyone else.

Don't forget suicide.

Your comment about people who don't speak English fluently reminded me to take a moment to appreciate that there are a non-zero number of asshole racists who, by nature of being cared for by (at least in some circumstances) people of varied races, do indeed die mad.

I like how this subtly suggests the developer sabotaged the Titan in order to gain more exposure.
