Kangaroo Jack (2003) for me. It's not objectively good but I found it silly and fun, and it's one of my dad's favorite movies. Never really understood why it's so panned (9% critic and 29% audience on Rotten Tomatoes)

Ah, I missed it again! And just by a few hours. Is there some kind of mailing list or something to sign up for to find out when this happens? Since I gave up Reddit and YouTube I am way out of the loop on these things. Would have picked up several titles too, since it's been a couple years...

This year's 50% off B&N Summer sale runs through July 28.

I missed Criterion's flash sale earlier this year so I'll probably stock up on this one sometime next week.

Boca Raton Bowl:

The officiating in this game is, uh, not good. Both teams kinda getting hosed

Just tuning in now, good Lord this weather is atrocious.

Thanks for creating this post, btw. I tried to make a gameday thread before I went out this morning but it didn't go through in the browser. Wonder if the new Lemmy update is causing that glitch

Edit: woops, wrong account. It's so easy to get mixed up on mobile. Aaand it won't let me switch so I guess I'll be posting from here

I hadn't taken part in the flash sale for a couple years (and I skipped the last B&N sale), so I went a little big on this one. Ordered:

  • The Lady Vanishes (1938)
  • Young Mr. Lincoln (1939)
  • His Girl Friday (1940)
  • Some Like It Hot (1959)
  • Fail Safe (1964)

I watched four films this week, all of which I'd seen before (so clearly I quite like them all):

  • It Happened One Night (1934)
  • Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
  • Foreign Correspondent (1940)
  • 21 Jump Street (2012)

Really tough to choose one, but would probably have to give the nod to Mr Smith. Jimmy Stewart is just too good.

Red River was complete trash?

Greed has often been described as equally evil to hate. As Robert Frost put it:

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice

Is also great

And would suffice.
