Yes! I struggle to motivate myself to stick with hobbies. I love photography, making art, writing - but often the motivation is just lacking. But cooking? I’m biologically motivated to cook (most days) so it’s easy to keep up with. All I have to do is save recipes and plan ahead just a little
Yeah talk about a depressing thought
Absolutely agree, got a big crush on Cap so I like to imagine he’s too tuned into the purest version of the 🇺🇸American spirit🇺🇸 to hate. But it is funny to suspend that and think about what if he was just a grumpy old man
No doubt there were plenty of gay men back then but were they widely accepted?
That scene at Medieval Times when Carrey does that great rendition of the fight music from Star Trek.
It’s always been interesting to me how relevant movies from the 90s and early 2000s make Star Trek seem at that time. Cable Guy and Wayne’s World both come to mind as movies that make multiple, occasionally obscure Trek references. I was born in 96 and watch a fair amount of Trek but it just doesn’t feel as relevant in my generation :/
I always look at it as:
Critics judge craftsmanship. Audiences judge enjoyment.
You would think that wouldn’t you, Margot Robbie?
There wasn’t enough time spent on character backstory! Use your glowing rectangle.
I agree that backstory is non-essential, but are critics criticizing the lack of backstory or the lack of fully fleshed out characters? Because imo one of the reasons the first Suicide Squad was bad was because it didn’t have adequately fleshed out characters. Any movie that relies on outside material to fill in essential blanks is not doing one of the major things a movie is supposed to do: tell a full story with its characters. Or at least it’s not doing it well
Definitely never realized those were rated badly, huh
I feel like it has to be due to people not liking the religion twist and Mila Kunis, right? I feel like it was easily 60% or up
Idk if I’d go that far by Crystal Skull was definitely the answer I was thinking of. Had a few parts that really strained the audience, sure, but overall a descent film imo
Individuals and small companies would never be able to compete with the resources of someone like Amazon
I don’t have an answer to your actual question other than self-hosting. But, I doubt you’d ever get a “firehose of trash” on your main feed. Mainly because the trashy instances aren’t that populous, so I doubt their posts would be active or hot enough to float to the top. But I could be wrong.
You could always go directly to the instance you want to read and lurk. Unless you make an account you won’t be able to comment, but you’ll be able to get your firehose of trash
Edit: Just be mindful of how much you consume, you’d be surprised how easily hate can invade your mind. To this day I still have to self-censor every now and then thanks to the hateful rhetoric I grew up around, even though I’m long past it
Thank you for story time it was nice
This is generally only applicable to peak content though
This is the main rub. A 3 hour movie that actually needs to be 3 hours can be great. I love all 3 Lord of the Rings movies. But as much as I wanted it to be really good, Dial of Destiny did not need its run time, nor did it use it to add substance
Then we just need to put ice cubes in the ocean. Plus that would help us cool the earth down
You lost a remnant of someone you cared about, so it makes sense even though it was bad for you in the long run
He forgot to mention that the theory is that it happened on accident. Thus he fell forward, causing him to misfire
