Lordi is the best Eurovision winner. It's not even close.

Does Eurovision happen in one night or is it a drawn out process? Do people have to write more than one song? Are they just coming back week after week and singing the same song they sang last week?

It's split between semi finals and the final. The acts are generally chosen by local song competitions. You get stuff like this in the local ones, probably.

OK, so 2 stages, same songs, second stage is like a runoff for the ones that did good in the first stage?

I assume these guys were the eventual overall winners

It looks like Paramount+ is getting into the "pay way too much for a direct-to-streaming action movie" game:

Only thing I know about this film is that Jason Manzuckz definitely bashed it when he was on CBB a while back, calling it strange that a movie only 90 minutes long can feel infinite.

I think the semis are split into two events, so it's three total. I think that's something that's about 10 years old, I remember it being all in one night in the early 2000s and probably had been so since the 60s.

e: Essentially it took a while to adjust to the increased number of participants after the breakup of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia basically doubled the number of members of the European Broadcast Union (I'm not sure if those two were members in any case, maybe Yugoslavia, but I'm less sure about the Soviet Union), so it's really from 1991 into roughly 2010 that you have a huge number of countries all performing/participating in a one night event.

To be fair, Lordi was essentially just GWAR for general audiences, which kind of a self defeating premise.

My personal favourite Eurovision moment was when Iceland went the gimmick route and wound up sending a band I actually kind of like, Hatari, who then proceeded to try to get themselves booted from the competition by being extremely vocal about their support for Palestinian liberation. Only wound up with a fine, and finished 10th.

I got an account and then promptly forgot to log anything after a month. Do they email that to you or do you have to check the website? Don’t see it on the app.

I tried to use letterboxd on the site and the app but logging a movie you've seen takes way too many clicks

Just to mark something as seen ot should be a single tile click from a grid of posters.

Terrible UI. 0/10.
