What I’m watching

I wonder if they’ll still have a kill switch on the respective microphones?

They better not preempt Big Brother.

That’s the only way this would be even remotely worthwhile. Otherwise they’re just going to yell over each other for a couple hours like last time.

Give both candidates the same questions beforehand and get rid of the live audience as well (shouting and jeering from the peanut gallery adds ZERO value).

Let the people actually hear what each candidate has to say about specific policy and social issues without all the juvenile theatrics. That would actually be a useful endeavor.

Of course…none of that will happen because it wouldnt drive nearly the same ratings. I’m 100% sure it’ll be the same sh*tshow as it was before.

I read somewhere that the format is supposedly muted mic when it’s not somebody’s turn.

After the 2016 and 2020 debacles where one person (recognize a common denominator?) decided rules don’t apply to them, and dragged the whole thing into a shouting match… I dont think they can ever go back to “normal” debates.

Let’s go, you reds.

After finishing the binge of “Jane the Virgin” I am finding myself riffing other series I am watching like I am the narrator.

My wife lays and my daughter is rolling her eyes. :joy::roll_eyes:

“The Long Shadow” is a seven episode period piece about the Yorkshire Ripper.

Amazingly good.

3 :star: out of 5. Huskies on the water is another title for this. It’s a pretty formulaic sports movie. Not one I will watch again but will remember I watched like 5 years from now and go, “Oh yeah I saw that.”

4 :star: out of 5. It does a good job of updating to modern times and it keeps some of the Broadway show intact. If you liked the musical you will like this. If you only saw the movie you will say “What the hell is this?”

Really enjoyed Civil War. Boys in the Boat was okay, but the book is much better. I loved the original Mean Girls movie but did not like the Broadway production at all.

Then skip the movie musical. It’s basically an updated film version of the musical and less like the Original Movie.

Just watched Godzilla Minus One. An absolutely awesome kaiju flick that balances the absurdity of a giant monster with a compelling story and amazing visuals.

The fact they made that film for under $15 million is absolutely mind-boggling. It puts most AAA Hollywood “spectacle” films to shame.
