I love Stranger Things but $50 million an episode for anything is fucking ludicrous

DiscussingFilm @discussingfilm.net · 17h

All episodes in the final season of ‘STRANGER THINGS’ will be over 1 hour

• Between 90 to 120 minutes each
• Budget per episode is $50M-$60M

This week we celebrate @hypecaster.bsky.social 's 100th episode of Mega Dads Live. I'm so proud of the new era of Mega Dads over the last 100 episodes. We really relaunched the brand into a much better place than it ever was before.
Antonio is the best co-host I could ever ask for.

Still hearing “I don’t do politics”? Sweetie, they politicized our culture. See Project 2025. Opting out isn’t an option.

The great Tom Petty, gone eight years ago today.

Of “I Won’t Back Down”, he said: more fans connected to the song “than anything I ever wrote. I've had so many people tell me that it helped them. .. I'm still amazed about the power a little three-minute song has.” 🙏🏼

I am just stunned at how hard Xbox has shat the bed this year.
It seems like Microsoft is actively trying to torpedo the brand with all these awful moves.

I freakin love 3D movies. My family and I rewatched Tron Legacy the other night on our 3d tv. So cool.

How about the option: All the dipshits who voted for this?

NPR @npr.org · 8d

If the federal government were to shut down, Republicans would get more of the blame than Democrats, according to a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll — but a significant percentage would blame both parties equally.

Poll: Republicans get more of the blame than Democrats for a potential shutdown

As a government shutdown becomes more likely, a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll shows even though President Trump has a low approval rating, just 1 in 4 approve of how Democrats in Congress are doing.

Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"
