I’m gonna be honest.

I was whelmed by Superman. Felt like I was watching the second, actiony half of a decent super hero movie.

I would argue the best hitman film would not have hitman as the main character.

He’s Freddy Kruger but all his victims are dicks.

Make an assassin slasher type movie where a bunch of billionaire class types die horribly despite their best efforts not to.

Happy Mothers Day
(USA edition)(Except the mothers who voted from Trump)

SmidgenDublin @smidgendublin.bsky.social · May 11

Happy Mother's Day to all moms in the USA. Please, if you have time in your no doubt busy schedule, take a few mins to listen to this excellent allegoryical song about the value of women's work. It's also fun, I promise. #speirgorm #mothersday @joshuaidehen.bsky.social youtu.be/PS9Bc_GQBEs?...

It kinda seems like they all felt pain because he did, which suggests they all died because he did and the sun aided the demise... Except did with plot armour

SPOILER FOR SINNERS

I have a question
When Michael B Jordan killed the main vampire and ask the other vampires died... Whyyyyy didn't his brother?

There has never been a better time to live in a left wing echo chamber. There is not one idea that has come from the right in decades that deserves respect or even rebuttal. We are living on a warming planet with actual problems and none of them are solved by regressing into imagined cultural safety
