Michael Haneke’s THE WHITE RIBBON, matinee at the Los Feliz 3 in LA. You could feel the growing hostility as the movie went on. To the point where there were multiple people shouting obscenities at the screen.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I don't get out to the movies as much as I'd like but BAD GIRL (Tamil film) is the work of an exciting new voice. If you like films like Frances Ha, def seek it out.

Nasty work by FOX to play “You Can’t Hurry Love” over a highlight package of Jordan Love roasting Lions secondary.

The soundtrack to the film THE HARDER THEY COME is one of my all time favorite albums.

“Many Rivers to Cross” is a must listen today on his crossing.

All the Shah’s Men was my first thought.
Ok BlueSky: what are your favorite history books in terms of sheer page-turning, narrative propulsion? Thinking along the line of Killers of the Flower Moon, etc. Nonfiction chronicles that read like novels or movies.

If the Dodgers end it here in the 18th then it should count for 2 wins.

Shohei Ohtani is 4-for-4 with 3 intentional walks

He's the first player EVER to reach base safely 7 times in a #Postseason game

Fletch should be like our generation’s Abbott & Costello film series.
you probably haven’t seen CONFESS, FLETCH but you definitely should, and also there should be at least 3 more of these

This is like something out of Starship Troopers.
Can you imagine that this is an ICE recruitment poster?
It’s like “why sit around on your sofa w/your wife nagging you every two minutes when you can sit in comfort in a van big enough for friends? You’ll get a mask, a gun, & your very own “illegal” so you can feel superior & secure in your ride.”

Now we’re up to 3 dingers and his day on the mound ended with 10 strikeouts in 6 scoreless innings.
You have to be shitting me... Ohtani homered again
October 18, 2025 at 2:48 AM
Second homer of the day leaves the stadium. And has pitched four scoreless innings (so far) as an added treat.
Shohei Ohtani this is just stupid...
October 18, 2025 at 2:07 AM
This is right after striking out three straight hitters. Cue the music from “The Natural.”
Shohei Ohtani leads off with a 446 ft HR
