nolan/joy should have been thrown in actual jail for how they ran that shit into the ground in record time

I found the pacing a little ponderous, also the cut-to-black structure reminded me of a much better show (scavengers reign) but overall I didn't hate it. I do think nolan and co trip over themselves a bit trying to be too clever / subvert expectation, but not to an obnoxious westworld degree thankfully

I couldn't convince anyone to go see Immaculate with me but it looks fun. It's interesting that she backed it as a passion project.

no

it's not about that, it's the fact that most date ideas cost money, and also being on the apps as an average looking man = you need to pay money to be able to shoot enough shots to make 'em worth using.

I have been too broke to date for a while and it sucks :(

the pig fucking episode was its peak. even the rest of that first series was not good

Everyone getting hung up on themes but the best thing about ST is the look and feel, aided by the blend of practical effects and surprisingly solid early era CGI. The behind the scenes stuff on how they did it is worth checking out, though not as amazing a technical/budgetary achievement as Robocop. Verhoeven is/was a whiz at keeping his spectacles visually coherent.

best band!!

tough to think of two people I'd like to get high with less

point taken but I recommend not referencing the director of those movies in an even accidentally approving context ever
