Matinee is one of the most underrated movies of all time.

The early 90s horror flick that got credited as the sign of the death of the horror genre until it was resurrected by Scream? Or a different Matinee?

e: for those wondering, it was considered the sign of death because it was a decently budgeted horror movie that ended up opening on a single screen in the Bahamas due to lack of demand. It is good fun though.

They did some fun stuff with that gimmick, ha. Really too bad TTG never reached the levels of TWD 1 or TWAU again. Well - at least based on the subsequent TWD seasons. Haven’t played the last one and never played the Batman, Borderlands, Minecraft or Game of Thrones games.

Speaking of TTG jank, I picked up a stack of dollars and now they’re stuck to Bigby’s hand. Great

Edit: loving lmao this stack of money is turning this into a comedy. Bigby needs to give Nerissa $150 but only has like fifty. So he goes ”sorry, I only have this much” and hands her a couple of wrinkly bills... while holding another stack of cash in his hand

Edit 2: Next scene, unfortunately the stack is gone now. Boo. I was getting a great deal of enjoyment out of Bigby walking around with it like a huge douche

Would you be my new best friends?

Tales from the Borderlands is legitimately a fantastic game, I can't recommend it enough.

The Batman game I got through I think 2-3 episodes of it and just got utterly bored and frustrated and uninterested and just never went back to playing it again.

Problem with Tales from the Borderlands is that it’s Borderlands which I am utterly uninterested in.

gently caress Randy Pitchford. He's not the bees guy but he's still human garbage.

seriously

quote:

Instead he claimed that it was "barely legal porn" which he had saved onto his USB drive for the purposes of studying what he claimed to be a "magic trick" performed by the female actress which, according to Pitchford, consisted of faking an ejaculation. Pitchford said that "[after seeing the ejaculation] I realized, this is not a sex worker. This is a loving magician."

I played Borderlands 2 but don't really have interest/investment in that universe, but still thought Tales from the Borderlands was exceptionally good.

By all accounts Randy Pitchford really is human garbage though, I think most people are in agreement on that.

Not a horror movie. A 1993 comedy about horror movies. And the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Oh god I was thinking about Popcorn, which does not feature a matinee in any way. I always get the two confused.

e: One time I went to show a friend Popcorn and we ended up watching Matinee because of this.

I think that's one of the only leo movies I've never bothered watching and based on your review I'm gonna continue down that road

I think the only one I outright didn't like of his is Blood Diamond

Its a good game OP

Edit - I have gotten back into playing War Thunder which is dope. They added boats finally and their interconnected battles (ppl in planes and tanks on the same map) is fun so if the boats get plugged in it'll be fantastic.

Yes whether or not eugenics *could* improve humanity is completely irrelevant because humans are horribly biased creatures who will gently caress up every attempt to do it. Saying “but it could work!” is just pointless edgelordery

I usually keep some instant noodles in the kitchen for those days when I’m too tired or in too much of a hurry to cook anything properly. Bought some vegetable-flavored ones and these taste distinctly like farts. I bought a five-pack of em. Upsetting

We took turkeys, which are mean vicious and awful tasting in the wild. Predators would die from starvation chasing them. Now they’re barely sentient bloated flavor bags.

Or all the dog and cat breeds that have genetic level organ failures that we purposely bred in because ‘cute’.

Now imagine that’s your boss. We bred your boss to have good boss tendencies. But we never bothered to include your thoughts on the matter so he just runs into walls and screams about TPS reports from the toilet. Science!

started watching Deep Space 9. Just great classic poo poo and a reminder that not every sci fi show needs to be crazy milspec action stuff.

Like if its well presented, I could watch a sitcom of bored gods pretending to be in a sitcom that occasionally do Big poo poo. Like Cheers with fistfights.

A couple years ago they made the best t-shirt ever made as a Kickstarter reward for a documentary about the show, unfortunately I heard about it way too late:
