hahahaah i wanna hear this

the takishi kovacs novels have this and it is hilarious, a husky sounding southern gal voice is the most amazing thing and the terrible sex scenes are better for it because they are embarrassingly bad but with a laugh theyre wonderful

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

when i did the audiobook of Hyperion, they had several narrators to do each of the substories and there was one where the character encounters another major character, who is a woman he becomes involved with sexually, and the narrator did both of their voices except he did her voice in a bad falsetto, and then did both of their voices when they were doing sex and it was one of the most ridiculous things i have ever heard

the sex in Hyperion was epically bad to begin with, this made it hilarious cringey fun when my wife & I listened

My flatmate is teaching Blade Runner as part of her dystopian lit & film course. I'm so torn between excitement for more Blade Runner and instinctive hatred of films-as-money-cows corp-rat culture.

Also, can anyone tell if Jared Leto is supposed to be a replicant or if that's just him being Jared Leto? Cause I sure can't.

Black Hawk vs. RC Fidget Spinner: 0 -1

https://nypost.com/2017/09/22/army-helicopter-hit-by-drone/

quote:

It was nearly Black Hawk down over Staten Island — when an Army chopper was struck by an illegally flying drone over a residential neighborhood, authorities said Friday.

The UA60 helicopter was flying 500 feet over Midland Beach alongside another Black Hawk, when the drone struck the chopper at around 8:15 p.m. Thursday, causing damage to its rotor blades.

the bottom left at the start of the clip misidentifies the two overlapping people as a northbound motor vehicle, with adult passengers

it looks like the other text on the other pedestrians more or less accurately describes male/female, short or long hair, and direction of movement, but the clip is too blurry for me to make out much else

lol drones are going to end up requiring full licensure, registration, flight planning etc

all things never really needed by RC Beckstrom people with those were plane spergs while drones have turned into smartphone idiots that want to fly cameras to stupid places

There's a TFR dropped over pretty much the entirety of NYC because the UN is in town.

The guy flying legally should have known but lol @ expecting dads to grasp such concepts as 'the FAA dictates where you can't fly'
DJI should have downloaded it into its no-fly list and blocked that (lol @ outsourcing airspace issues to China)

yes no no no

He probably should have said "good new ideas."

Life wasn't a new idea or good.

Colossal was a brilliant idea with miserable execution.

Valerian was never going to be any good, and I'd rather see a sequel to Blade Runner than an Avatar-ish 100% green screen spectacle with acting so bad it makes you wonder whether the humans are computer-rendered too.

holy gently caress

quote:

Besson has been married four times; first, in 1986, to actress Anne Parillaud who starred in Besson's Nikita (1990).[citation needed] Besson and Parillaud had a daughter, Juliette, born in 1987. The couple divorced in 1991.

Besson's second wife was actress Maïwenn Le Besco, who was 15 when they began dating in 1991.[17] They were married in late 1992 when Le Besco was pregnant with their daughter Shanna, who was born on 3 January 1993.[18] Le Besco later claimed that their relationship inspired Besson's film Léon (1994), where the plot involved the emotional relationship between an adult man and a 12-year-old girl.[17] Their marriage ended in 1997, when Besson became involved with actress Milla Jovovich during the filming of The Fifth Element (1997). He married the 22-year-old on 14 December 1997, at the age of 38, but they divorced in 1999.[19]
