Reply to What movie do you quote the most ? by I_serve_Anubis

The Blues Brothers, Snatch, and In the Loop are all in heavy rotation for me.

Reply to Is it a bad habit to read only a few pages of a novel daily? by NormalLife6067

What I'm trying to do is read a chapter or two at a time. Some books make that easier than others; the book I'm reading right now has a ton of short chapters, but something like Ducks, Newburyport might be a little more of an ask.

Reply to Pixar head Pete Docter on why Lightyear failed by JannTosh17

It didn't feel like a 90s SF-action film - and definitely not one a kid would've considered his favorite movie.

My headcanon is Andy saw Strange Days instead.

Reply to Aftersun is a masterclass in "show don't tell" by Astro3001

It reminded me of Hemingway's writing, particularly stories like "Hills Like White Elephants" where very, very little is stated outright, but if you read it carefully, you can intuit what's going on underneath the surface. I really want to see it again, because I was so focused on trying to find the deeper meaning the first time (and I'd like to watch it with subtitles).
