!comicshitters comic sonic just straight up killed robotonik

Watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

He really had me going there thinking he made a normal movie

I bought the 3+hr director's cut of Alexander from Amazon.

Terrible.

"Ride with me, Macedonians! Why do you lollygag and stuff!?"

Bro, they're frickin' right next to your Barbie butt..

I've been watching a lot, I mean a lot of those Youtube PBS EONS videos on geologic events in history. There are also a lot of other good video essayists who do this as a side project and maybe release 1 or 2 videos a year but those are even more awesome.

I have been captivated by the idea of positive feedback loops although I can't put my finger on why. I'll ask Chatgpt.

The idea of Cooming making me want to coom more is very fascinating.

Appalachian dinos (forgotten again )

This one is good too (Video Essay by a based trad married but trust the soyence feminist)

I watched nosferatu (2024) as seen in my review will try and waych vampyre. I also saw Sonic 3 which was very mid. Its the best one, has some cool action, and jim carry is funny but i will never like sonic and co being baby boys to humans. I like humans just being a different species like in sa1.

Dexter Season 1. It still holds up.

Watching Silo right now. Season 1. Pretty interesting so far. Could do with a faster pace tho tbh.

Watched Last Straw from RLM recommendation. It was a decently good but not great horror movie. Any recent indie horror recommendations?

I haven't watched anything in months, tbh. Is squid game S2 any good? I saw some seething over there being a trans character or something, but haven't heard anything else.

Zombie show

Just finished fallout. It started slow as heck but was really into it by the end. Hoping the second season can really deliver, I was honestly left pretty happy with the adaptation

I thought a woman lead meant she was gonna be a Mary Sue but they're doing a pretty good job with her character development for the most part. Not perfect for sure, but definitely not a Rey

Gangweed Sonic

I watched the original Italian Job because it was on Channel 4. We need more films that are woppilled.

Seprendititty (bad)

Silent Night 2021 (very bad)

Minority Report (good)

The Fall 2022 (good)

Flow (good)

Gladiator 2 (not as bad as I thought but still not good)

I am open to elaborating more on any of these films if someone has any questions

Ur mom

I showed a friend Videodrome to a friend and it holds up.

We also watched Rosemary's Baby and that was great, never seen it.

I actually watched that Sonic film not long ago. I mostly sat through it wondering if it would be possible to write a Sonic story without being at least a bit cringe. Still haven't thought of how that might be possible, it's just an inherently neurodivergent character.

I got a free trial of some channel called Mubi over Amazon Prime to watch The Substance and have discovered it has The People's Joker. I guess I have to see it.

Cuck. Im sorry i meant chuck, i like it so far it is classic comedy cant go wrong.

Also watched true grit yesterday great movie i liked the girl in particular she was absolutely based. Very good example of actual strong female character she dosent try to be like a man, uses words instead of using violence knows which era she is living in, you can believe someone like her existed without rolling your eyes. Also liked that the villans werent generic psychopaths just being buttholes for no reason.

It makes you wonder how the movie series will get.

Dune Prophecy. I like how Desmond Hart makes those b-words SEETHE.

Death of stalin was kino, and whichever idiot convinced kenneth branaugh to remake the orient express that horribly when david suchet and the 1974 movie exists is an idiot. The 1974 movie slapped
