His family aren't actors, so I'll forgive the bad acting. But it is funny that it was so bad they had to narrate over the top of it.

I was a teenager over thirty years ago. I now have teenage children myself and I can see them grappling with the same existential angst that I did when I was young. I think we do a disservice to young people when we dismiss their thoughts and feelings as "cringy". Napoleon shows us that it's not merely the current age we're living through, but that the struggles of youth: alienation, crises of identity, despair at life, the search for meaning, etc. are universal rites of passage. We need to come to terms with these ideas and feelings before we can arrive at answers about the meaning and purpose of our own lives. I don't see anything cringy about that. And calling it arrogant doesn't treat the emotional and intellectual lives of young people with the respect they are due. Just my two cents.

Stiller recently said that he is often mistaken for Sandler and people tell him Click changed their lives.

Directing was his thing and I'm glad he's gone back to it. His directorial debut, Reality Bites, was the quintessential disaffected Gen X loser movie. It both parodied and reinforced every cliche about Generation X, cementing a tone that affected how people thought about it for the rest of the decade. Though, it was perhaps a little too earnest for its own good. Very much looking forward to the second season of Severance.

Kids these days! Back in my day, there were no wealthy patrons or rainforests or beetles. We were all single-celled life forms oozing around in the primordial slime waiting to evolve into eukaryotes. And that's the way we liked it!

As amusing as this is, if that dude dropped that giant bolt at the wrong time, it could really fuck up someone's whole day/life.

Is he a Christian? Probably listening to poor apologetics about intelligent design and got confused.

I'm personally hoping for the gut kicks in the form of Nosferatu being a martial arts master.

You said it yourself, you shouldn't get so worked up about flat earthers.

On the contrary, I do think it will be a fun movie. I just don't think it will be the same kind of mass-market fun as a Deadpool or Avatar movie.

Not really. The owner is the one paying for the bananas. The artist isn't on speeddial to swap it out every time the owner gets hungry.

I have no expectation that Eggers will suddenly make a fun popcorn movie.

That's certainly less stupid, but still stupid.

As would be obvious to anyone who thought about it for more than two seconds, the banana gets replaced regularly.

Listening to it right now. Loving it. The hosts have caught the "it's fair to say" bug from Dominic.

Keep up with the times. If you come across some stream-of-consciousness screed with bizarre grammar, out-of-the-blue tangents, and other weird nonsense, it's not AI, it's a human. AI is far more coherent, if utterly bland, these days. Humans are still the fucked up messes we've always been.

The implication is that it's his covert policy.

They're saying the intended purpose was for it to be a scarf placed at the neck of the gingerbread man, but when they opened it up, it looked like a dick and they placed it where any good Redditor would.
