I've been reading it. The folks here are most definitely in the minority.

And that's fine. I don't know why it would bother anybody.

Not everything is a sequel, reboot or remake.

Every week, original films are released. Most lack money for advertising and are commercial failures. If we wish to see more films like them made, we need to see them - preferably with people who wouldn't otherwise have, and spread the news about them in person or Lemmy or whatever you wish.

Or you could just wait. The movie industry has gone through this many times.

I shouldn't have to. Any God worthy of the title would provide clear and irrefutable proof of its own existence.

Honestly, I'm okay with parking lots if we can do away with street parking.

Overwork and the pursuit of wealth is detrimental to you and your relationships. Earning enough for a simple life and then stopping allows time to be a decent human.

I walk an average of three hours a day. My young adult children ask me to go with them to the movies. My wife works enough and no more. We split the chores and have few resentments. The crows along the river swoop down when I pass by. I stop and feed them peanuts.

I learned this by becoming aware of just how little it served me and my family to really put in the hours and take every opportunity that came my way.

I agree. The justice system is not so much set up to arrive at justice as to make sure the system can run with little interruption.

This is certainly true in large cases. Thanks for the assist!

Thrilled that Sag-Aftra were able to stand firm. Director's Guild, Producer's Guild, and Teamsters all voicing support. These are good times.

(I do wish the directors hadn't been so quick to sign their own deal.)
