The whole last half hour or so feels like it's too much. But I still enjoy it more than the first Bad Boys, which I've only seen once.

Lil Mama Im Sorry posted:Bad Boys II is awesome Like it's so dope. It looks gorgeous, it's got basically no down time. Every time they aren't driving or shoot or driving and shooting, it's a comedy. There're maybe 5-10 minutes of non-comedic plot exposition in a 2:26 minute movie. And it's full of car porn. Oh god the cars. One time, randomly, for one scene for no reason, Will Smith is driving the Buick Blackhawk concept car. edit: ^ Yeah, it goes from 0-Let's commit an act of war against Cuba in like 30 seconds and it's great. It's like it turns into another movie. But I appreciate the unbridled escalation. Snak fucked around with this message at 15:00 on Dec 5, 2016 |

There has been a copy of Bad Boys II in every detox and rehab I've been a patient in, which is well over 10 different facilities.

"Point Break, or Bad Boys II?" "Well which one do you think I'd prefer?" "No, I mean, which one do you want to watch first?"

Do you have a slow-cooker? I use a slow cooker to make porridge overnight. It used to be oatmeal but then my son was diagnosed as coeliac, so I now do quinoa. it's more expensive but it also have more protein. I cook it with some ground ginger and a stick of cinnamon and eat it with peanut butter and maple syrup (and a dash of salt). Otherwise, not much wrong with eggs and toast with some fruit. Granola and yoghurt with fruit and/or honey is also delicious and filling.

June twenty-ninth. I gotta get in shape. Too much sitting has ruined my body. Too much abuse has gone on for too long. From now on there will be 50 pushups each morning, 50 pullups. There will be no more pills, no more bad food, no more destroyers of my body. From now on will be total organization. Every muscle must be tight.

I recall reading some article debunking quinoa as a good source of protein, I never bothered to fact check though since e I was never big on eating it.

Quinoa's not "a good source of protein", because it's not high in protein. It does have more protein than rice or oats, there's a good trade-off there. It doesn't have as much protein as wheat. It's still primarily a source of carbs.

The whole Mummy trailer I was thinking "Heh, wonder if they'll have a shot of Tom Cruise running at the camera," and then boom the last shot happens. I thought that was just a snarky internet thing and not, ya know, real.

Oh man, almost forgot. So I finished my X-Men marathon with Apocalypse on Saturday. Here is my final ranking off all X-Men and Wolverine movies (best to worst) X2: X-Men United X-Men: First Class X-Men: Days of Future Past X-Men Origins: Wolverine X-Men X-Men: Apocalypse The Wolverine X-Men: The Last Stand General reflections: First Class was much better than I remembered, as was Origins: Wolverine. Origins: Wolverine might actually be the best looking film of the entire bunch. Days of Future Past has a much more consistent tone than basically any of the other films, which I like. It also has the single best Magneto helmet by a wide margin. Why they didn't just reuse that design in apocalypse is baffling. I don't know why "design the helmet around how it fits the actor's face" is so difficult. They really don't want us to forget Magnet is a holocaust survivor. Obviously I don't think it should be forgotten, but it seems tacky to keep going back to that well in the exact same manner. Speaking of returning to the same well, holy poo poo the Wolverine/Jean Grey shipping. Jesus christ. Apocalypse makes this retroactively way creepier too. Apocalypse wasn't terrible, so much as completely hollow. Young Storm was completely wasted, but not as much as Archangel, who did literally nothing the entire movie. As usually, the only characters with any emotional depth to their actions were Charles, Eric, and Raven. For a character who's textually pretty central to like 4 of the movies, Jean really has no character what-so-ever. While it was sometimes confusing, I kind of appreciated the lack of consistent continuity between movies. Where Marvel's cinematic universe tries to make everything fit together, these films are just like "gently caress it, none of this makes any sense anyway, piece it together however you want". Which is kind of freeing. Days of Future Past also kind of addresses this directly with its "all bets are off" ending. Snak fucked around with this message at 15:59 on Dec 5, 2016 |

I have this theory that one day someone will like blow up the Scientology mind control antennae and Tom Cruise will age about 30 years in 30 seconds.

I wanna rage about this somewhere... http://www.independent.co.uk/voices...e-a7455166.html Since apparently the discoveries are about a week old, I'm guessing most people here will have already discussed it but *what the actual gently caress*. Apparently the director said: "We were having, with Marlon [Brando], breakfast on the floor of the flat where I was shooting. There was a baguette, there was butter and we looked at each other, and without saying anything, we knew what we wanted." Kinda disturbing when two men don't even need words to understand that they both want to make sexual assault happen...

Whole Eggs like omelets (not just egg whites), multigrain toast or English muffin, use turkey sausage if you want. Alternate option is to go oatmeal. Protein in the morning will fuel you early to lunch. If you wanna throw veggies in there do stuff like broccoli, jalapeño. If you need, salsa for flavor. Or just do whatever

"I wanted her reaction as a girl, not as an actress" in context might be the worst thing ever said by a director outside of John Landis telling a helicopter pilot to fly lower.

Wait, I don't get it. Can anyone tell me if this "shooting draft" link is authentic? 'Cause all the press and Bertolucci/Schneider's own words always led me to believe the butter sodomy scene wasn't scripted, but it's all here: http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Last-Tango-in-Paris.html

That scene specifically excepted. I don't know how they hosed it up so bad. I mean, I actually have a few guesses based on my mediocre knowledge of rendering, but... Also I didn't say best effects, best looking overall.

So, I went and saw Arrival again, this time with my friend whose bf died a short while back and she absolutely loved it. This confirms my hypothesis that the movie has an almost dreamy narcotic and comforting effect on people who've experienced a lot of grief.
