Navigatin' through this basement, that masquerades
As a nation, practising my acetate masturbation
Watching the expressions on the faces
Of the ones designated to be the queens, kings, and aces
How many miles can you put on one soul
Before the smiles start to blend into one big bullet hole

Finally got to see this at the local Buddhist temple. The temple director and dharma master approved of my question at the end. Very silly and funny, filmed on a microbudget around Round Rock.

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF!
Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

Way to go Cargill!
Holy shit, gang. This isn't the first time Scott & I have had the number one movie, but it is the first time we've done it with OUR movie and not the Marvel machine. BP1 never got higher than 4th place. This is huge for us & we owe every last bit of it to you. THANK YOU!

Caught Stealing is worth seeing, though better kept to streaming. Aronofsky did not make a wacky New York crime caper, but a lot of great actors made bit parts big. Maybe they were thinking Requiem for a Dream, not After Hours.
Picaresque works better when the main isn't a *total* shit magnet.
