My thoughts

Primitive War
☆☆☆☆1/2

I gotta say, they kinda slam dunked this one. Too long, but they really took the premise of "the vietnam war but there are dinosaurs" and knocked it out if the park.

All this baseball talk is making me curious about watching a baseball game for the first time in a while, but I have no idea how to do this. How do you watch baseball? Is there any baseball tomorrow?

Iconic. This is the look I try to bring to the post office, except slightly more slovenly.

There's also Rampo (1994), if we've been remiss on that one! I've heard it's good, but haven't seen it.

I remembered they marketed the hell out of that. It was EVERYWHERE.

This one is my favorite, in no small part due to Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who is always great.

Here's what I've watched so far in my hunt for best bad movie 2025. So far, nothing has taken the throne from War of the Worlds, which I liked but didn't love. Also listed, the two good 2025 movies I've seen, Him and Sinners.

HIM, President Down, Red Sonja, War of the Worlds, Osiris, Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 4: Dawn of the Vampires, STRAW, The Last Gunfight

MMA Cop, Bikini Nuns, Sinners, Drop, The Gorge, Renner, Love Hurts

Is there any meat on the bone with Tron: Ares? Does anybody know if we should investigate Tron: Ares?

Culture Crave 🍿 @culturecrave.co · 1d

‘Tron: Ares’ grossed $14.3M in the film’s domestic opening day

That’s less than ‘Morbius’

Like, you can choose what you're going to say on any given day, so it's cool when he chooses to say something I agree with.

It's always nice to see a pope saying all the catholic stuff that's cool instead of the catholic stuff that sucks.

📌“The fact that I am American means, among other things, people can’t say, like they did about Francis, ‘he doesn’t understand the United States, he just doesn’t see what’s going on.’

Do you think he had an NDE in one of his recent secret health crises and he got a peak? Also, is it good to have a guy with his finger on the button that seems convinced he's already going to hell?

Trump: "I don't think there's anything that's gonna get me in heaven. I think I'm not maybe heaven bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make heaven."

@whatsallthispod.bsky.social have me on to talk about the great british menu. I'm normal!

Chris the Frankenstein @christhefriend.bsky.social · 17h

The Great British Menu is a really good binge watch once you get into its rhythms. It's really easy to watch a single region block, and all of a sudden, it's three hours later, you've seen 12 incredible fine dining dishes, and partly internalized what a Yorkshire accent sounds like.
