I can’t even keep up with the movies and TV shows I want to watch.

Spaceballs over Blazing Saddles?

Mullholland Drive is fucking fantastic and I almost put it on the list over Blue Velvet. I’m sure this will forever be debated by film nerds as long film nerds continue to exist. There’s something about that heightened, unreal 80’s vibe in Blue Velvet, plus what a fuckin’ cast. I also like the “dark side of a quaint small town” theme, which reminds me of his work in Twin Peaks a bit, where Mullholland Drive feels more like he’s expressing more a criticism(?) of the place Hollywood occupies in the cultural consciousness. I’m a sucker for a suburban dystopia, it feels more relatable. Ultimately though, Mullholland Drive feels like a second take on the same kind of ideas, and it’s glossier and more plotty, but I personally I like the smaller, more raw version. Lynch was a master of the medium and almost all of his films are either outright masterpieces or at least incredibly artistic curiosities.

ABCB dude.

And Airplane!

My top 3 best (but not favorite) movies:

This is hard. In the discussion:

• Vertigo

• Toy Story
• Mad Max: Fury Road
• The Silence of the Lambs
• Blue Velvet

• The Lion King (1994)
• The Iron Giant
• so, so many more I need to watch or rewatch or just can’t think of right now

Good call on your picks, all three masterpieces, and two of the three your friend picked definitely qualify. Shawshank is a fine movie but doesn’t belong among the greatest films ever made, imo. I think it just played on TV constantly in the late 90s and early 00s so people have affection for it.

I am about 40 years old, for context.

Heat is a good pull, Michael Mann honks.

Didn’t Trump already do this last time? I seem to remember a lot of our intelligence assets dying suddenly after meeting with Putin or something?

Yes, this is Linux. If your hardware is supported, it’s outstanding. If not, you will need to figure it out yourself. Vetting purchases for compatibility is the most important part. As a bonus, it also makes you vote with your wallet for the manufacturers that don’t do a bunch of proprietary bullshit.

My friend’s uncle was a cop, I met him when we went on a boat trip. As a way to convey how great being a cop was, he told me how on his first day he told his supervisor he wanted to arrest someone, so they found a homeless person, beat them, and arrested them. He laughed and laughed at this. I was appalled, and told him so. He laughed harder and called me a pussy.

He’s a judge now.

As a person with ADHD, I can’t NOT have many tasks running simultaneously, but also I never finish anything, so my list is expands and expands until I have a mental break and throw it all away.

I would not recommend.

• Blank Check with Griffin and David. A podcast about film directors. We love da moviesh.
• The Greatest Generation/The Greatest Trek. The best Star Trek podcast.
• Marvel by the Month. Every Marvel comic, one month at a time.
• Spout Lore - side-splittingly funny Dungeon World real-play podcast that will occasionally make you cry.
• Sawbones - Medical history from a real doctor and her loveable idiot. Secretly one of the most leftist podcasts out there, Dr. Sydnee for president. Also relationship goals.

Never could get the hang of Thursdays.

Converse All Star Hi Tops, red.

She drives me crazy.

Gross

Yeah, to each their own, but if you think this, you don’t understand why people like Star Trek.
