I actually thought it was really good!

This movie is missing: Sarah Paulson, Angela Bassett,Evan Peters,Frances Conroy and Denis o’hare just to name a few

He ain’t wrong.

I’m a nerd. This discussion made me curious about actual numbers so I went to look at reported data. 333M genpop US citizens in 2020, 252M of genpop were voting age in 2020 (75%), 168M of total were actually registered to vote in 2020 (50% of genpop, 67% of all voting age), 155M of total actually went out and voted for some issue or other in 2020 (46% of genpop, 92% of registered). You can draw whatever conclusions you want about why 2/3 of people eligible to vote did not vote at all. Your numbers are pretty close.

Some votes make no difference, some votes have significant impact on you whether you like it or not, and your vote actually is meaningful. People do not vote every office on the ticket for a presidential election. A significant number of registered voters go to vote only on things like millages that will raise their local taxes, weed legalization, reproductive freedom, state and local representatives. Which idiot will run their school board and ban books, which idiots are running to turn half the city roads into expensive and completely unused double bike lanes (those people won and flipped council by a mere 29 votes), which idiots are running because they believe property owners who have rentable space but choose not to rent it should pay heavy fines, because baristas have a constitutional right to live within a five minute walking distance from work, there’s not enough affordable housing right downtown, and they are too precious to ride an almost free municipal bus to work from a neighborhood they actually can afford. 56% of registered voters in my state voted to legalize weed, the people in my state are now free to light up a spliff all day with no harassment from The Man and my city now has more weed shops than restaurants.

Whatever you believe about criminal syndicates running the United States (accurate) there are still cases where your vote is highly relevant. My mother was a poll worker all of her married life and I grew up sitting on the floor of a gymnasium for 24 hours straight six times a year. End of rant.

Awesome show! Jeremy Renner is criminally underestimated.

I thought this series ended

Guess I should watch this before……In 2022 it was announced that the 2008 horror film The Strangers would be getting a three-movie reboot intended to give more insight into the titular Strangers’ motivations. Directed by Renny Harlin, the first of the trilogy has made its anticipated release, much to the delight of horror fans.

There will be a season 3, unfortunately, there is not yet an official release date for Season 3. Given that Season 1 debuted in May 2022 and Season 2 launched in October 2023, we will likely see Harry Bosch and co return to our screens in late 2024. Excitingly, it has recently been confirmed that filming wrapped in May 2024, making an end-of-year release date still possible.

There could be a spinoff after the final season. This is the first indication that Blue Bloods may end up extending its life beyond the planned season 14B that airs this fall. Cast and producers have been upfront on how they feel the show still has life to it and shouldn’t be canceled just yet. While CBS has confirmed they won’t change their minds about the cancellation, a spin-off could be the key to continuing the franchise a bit.

Update on a season 2 and possibly airing this fall! The second season will introduce two new families, who become entangled with the Sparrows from the first run, entering a complex web of local gangs, old rivalries, revenge, and betrayal. At the same time, a new Sheriff of Nottingham fights passionately against a proposed new mine, which brings the promise of much-needed new jobs, but unwelcome reminders of the legacy that has mired the community.

just a week now then will be back to westeros,just eager to see one main character bite the dust, the best part i like about westeros

This is really good and funny. Not really a fan of One Republic but the song at the end is pretty good as well

Sounds good indeed! Filming is expected to begin this summer; no premiere date has been set yet. Christie’s great-grandson James Prichard will executively produce the show alongside Suzanne Mackie (of The Crown) and Chris Sussman (of Good Omens). Prichard said, “Bundle Brent is one of my great-grandmother’s rafts of interesting, humorous, sharp, young female characters. To see her brought to life through the words of Chris Chibnall and this production with Orchid Pictures and Netflix is a dream come true. I think viewers will love this world that we have created, and hope for more.”

Locally democracy & voting tends to work acceptably much to most people’s satisfaction. Nationally it’s a different animal. With that, there are plenty of examples on a local level where the will of the people was usurped in spite of voting results. Still - local voting is much more effective than national.

It has been confirmed! Production for the film is slated to begin later this year, with a script penned by the show’s creator, Steven Knight. The announcement marks the first official confirmation with a studio greenlight, bringing excitement to fans who have eagerly awaited the continuation of Tommy Shelby’s story. Cillian Murphy expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating, “It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me…It is very gratifying to be re-collaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the film version of ‘Peaky Blinders.’ This is one for the fans.”

Just found some more news about Jensen Ackles and I could see him as Batman! DC Universe fan art imagines Jensen Ackles as Batman in a modern reimagining, sparking excitement for new Batman iteration in The Brave and The Bold. Ackles remains a top choice for Batman casting, pending DC Universe’s completion of The Brave and The Bold movie script for final casting decisions.
The upcoming DC reboot film will introduce a new Batman and a brand new Batsuit design, drawing inspiration from the modern DC Rebirth iteration.

As it has been reported, Costner is leaving the series. Who will replace him? Here is what I have found out and it does sound plausible….Kurt Russell can be one of the most perfect additions to the Dutton Ranch. With his experience in projects like Bone Tomahawk, The Hateful Eight, and Tombstone, Russell can pull off the Western genre with the desired style. As we do not have any official update about Russell’s Yellowstone involvement, his appearance can also be expected in the prequel series, 1944. The series set after the events of 1923 can present the Marvel star as another prominent Dutton family member.

When you have 2 parties that dominate the political landscape, but both are actually just 2 sides of the same coin, your vote doesn’t matter. Without the money that backs those 2 parties, no other players have the funding needed to get elected. Even if, by some miracle, some independent or alternative party member did get elected, how much cooperation would they get in a system full of individuals more concerned about preserving the power of their own party than serving the people? None. Both dominant players have a vested interest in making sure they remain the only players in that game.

Not voting is a vote. It’s a vote that says: No thanks, not voting for the lesser of two evils. Those who go to the slaves suggestion box and think that voting for one criminal syndicate over the other are the problem, not the solution. That doesn’t make you free. That isn’t democratic. It’s fascism by another name. Voting for Sam Giancanna or Al Capone is still a vote for a criminal organization that has a vested interest that no one has an acceptable choice.

A poll says that 20% of people would rather a meteor destroy the Earth rather than the current democan or republicrat be elected. That’s around 180 million people who voted with their feet that out of nearly half a billion people, they believe that the two criminals being presented as “a choice” are not valid choices. An actual democracy would have an enormous amount of political parties. There actually are. But most people don’t know about them since there’s a media blackout on everyone who are not part of the hijacked criminal political parties. At this point, those who vote for either are also criminals & should be deported along with the political cults they support so that actual real change can take place & real progress can move society forward instead of being gridlocked in record breaking do-nothing government that’s puppeteered by their corporate owners.

Throughout my lifetime, there has been no U.S. government. There has been an 18-wheel semi full of monkies on PCP that crashed into a nitrus truck full of drunk clowns. No one can force that idiocy upon me, not even upon pain of death.

For those of you who are fans of Jensen Ackles, he will be starring in a new drama (I thought he was going to become a regular on Tracker but maybe not). Countdown’s description, the series begins “following a suspicious murder in broad daylight, which leads to LAPD officer Mark Meachum (Ackles) being recruited to join a secret task force of undercover agents from all branches of law enforcement to investigate. But as the truth of a more sinister plot comes into focus, the team must overcome their conflicting personal agendas to unite and save a city of millions.”

Frankly, I think all of the pieces to build such a large space craft are already up there in space. It would be easier to make some kind of assembly line, that way we could use all of the space junk that’s already up there. Now that I say that, it makes me wonder if scientists took all the space junk into consideration when calculating asteroids like Apophis and other giant ones that are a threat to our planet. What happens if the asteroid that’s supposed to miss our planet, hits a large piece of space junk, and diverts it towards earth. Is that possible? It’s really scary to think about. I’ll bet out of every movie, series, and documentary, the movie Greenland is the closest to what a real meteor apocalyptic event would be like. The government would definitely wait until the last minute to avoid chaos, looting, murder, rape, and whatever else all of the sick depraved people there are in the world. If you’ve read this far, leave a comment and let us know what movie you think would be the closest, and what you would do if we knew the world was ending. If you’re into the apocalyptic movies and shows like I am, check out Netflix, they’ve been making a lot of those lately including the new Korean series (that’s dubbed in English) Goodbye earth.

That last bit made my night.

It’s cute that you think your vote really makes a difference.

You see the same specious deflection anytime someone talks about slavery in the US. Why is it so hard to stay on topic? Does it make it any less horrible? No one is telling you to feel guilty about something you had nothing to do with, but when you try to shut down discussions about it and how people still suffer from racist policies that have endured, you do make yourself part of the problem.

That last bit made my night.

I thought it was obvious from my first post, i guess not… Its simple. Vote, but “stop voting for the same people that enact those policies”… Doesn’t matter if you’re left right or center, vote for policy not party… Deuces.

And that’s where our conversation ends. I thought I might get an honest, intelligent discussion, but I was mistaken. Have a good night.

How is not voting helping to stop any of that?

I voted most of my adult life. I’ve seen the gap between the rich and everyone else grow and grow in that time. I’ve seen medical care and the cost of medications become beyond the grasp of most in that time. I’ve seen the American dream of owning your own home slip away. Homelessness continues to rise no matter who is in office. Our rights, slowly but surely, are being taken away from us, no matter who is in office. How, exactly, is voting helping to stop any of that?

The focus was much different than what I expected. War correspondents are a special breed.

So many of these negative reviews are basically:
“I wanted to watch p0rn but this is just a movie about people having sex!”
But in the end, I don’t see what they’re complaining about. You couldn’t ask for a better money shot.

Its sad that you think it doesn’t…

It’s cute that you think your vote really makes a difference.

News flash, that doesn’t help them or anyone! Only hurts everyone…

Did you forget to add a ‘not’ in there somewhere?

Newsflash, most of them figured that out long ago and don’t vote at all.

The “people still suffer from racist policies that have endured” should probable stop voting for the same people that enact those policies…
