The drones had unquestionably their best performance of the conflict, but still only scored 16 points.

Gotta wonder if they did rehearsals in less-than-complete wardrobe or makeup, cos the instant Gardner saw them it was lost. haha

I just went through my township's water utility contact page asking about a chlorine odor/taste that started recently, and had to go through - and I am not exaggerating - 11 CAPTCHAs in order to submit the form. Was that 11 separate gates, or did the "click all the images that show crosswalks/fire ...

To be faaaaair the NDA isn’t concealing OJ’s activity, just that his lawyers showed up at the student affairs place. But that's part of the point. There's no need for an NDA to conceal that, because there's nothing nefarious or even conspicuous about it on its face. Kardashian himself was an alumnu...

Police reports are permanent in CA, anyone could've found those if they existed. (Unless the LAPD was involved in covering up the crimes of a man they eventually tried to frame..................................) What's more, if they did exist an NDA couldn't be enforced to conceal criminal conduct. ...

"That's how much power money enables"

Whose money? Did any of it go your way? Was your silence bought? If so, how much did it cost them (surely you can share that now)?

While I have no doubts whatsoever that Nicole Brown was probably not the only white blonde female OJ beat up, that story has an odd smell about it. There would be no reason whatsoever for her boss to disclose the nature of the meeting when the only piece of information she knew was that Shapiro and ...

He still went by "Nicolas Coppola" on Fast Times, and the unwanted attention the name brought is what prompted him to change his name to Cage. I saw an interview with Amy Heckerling who said he wasn't annoyed by people calling him a nepo baby, he was fed up with fellow actors constantly asking him i...

Gladiator and Black Hawk Down was I think the last time he directed two winners in a row. And he's made 14 or 15 movies since BHD. In that group, I think the only great films are American Gangster and The Martian.

That film is going to have huge marketing costs, so when all's said and done it will have to gross close to a billion dollars to break even.

If you want to know why studios shy away from original IP, that's why.

Ugh, what a tough break. Having that much runway can be a blessing and a curse, make use of it.

I didn't like being all Negative Nancy here, but I feel like our little group here is well over 50% turnover from our last jobs in the last two years, many of us all or partly involuntarily.

The original discussion was spoilered more out of caution (it's based on a 50-year old book that was adapted for TV when Jimmy Carter was President). But they've apparently wandered pretty far afield from the book at this point, so from about Ep 6 on it has been genuine spoiler territory. :thumb:

Shōgun is about as good as TV gets imo. Like this is about the maximum expression of a dramatic narrative the medium is capable of delivering in 2024. Two more hours of story to go, I hope they stick the landing. I had one technical quibble with some of the camera work in the early episodes, and som...
