Where the credit card is considered a peripheral.

He reportedly turned down money to play for Ottawa. Speculation is he wanted a prominent role or opportunity to win, and maybe both.

So, I am an r/calgary member. I recently made my way to lemmy.ca through the announcement on one of the Canadian subs. I suspect the people who would be interested in joining lemmy.ca could be reached through other means than posting in r/calgary.

Because, r/calgary has always been a hot mess of a sub, even when reddit was relatively new. It's such a bipolar sub.

The large conservative base will never let someone post something they think will rock the boat, so it's best to reach people through different subs. I suspect r/Alberta would be far more open to the idea of jumping ship.

It's digital if it's on DVD and Bluray :D

Physical media!

I 100% own a copy. I don't have to hunt it down, pay a subscription, and my caveman brain can hold it and put it on a shelf, and that makes me happy.

You mean his SIXTH THEATRICAL INDIPENDENT FEATURE FILM?

No, probably not. I am not sure if it is playing in my city.

Ruffalo would be an interesting replacement, but personally I can't see Columbo without Falk.

I could actually see a reboot working too, Ruffalo taking down the ultrarich with gotcha moments at the end -- like him taking down a Musk stand in, or some crypto/A.I. bro

Personally, I feel Better Call Saul is better.

I wasn't going to watch it because I kind of hated Breaking Bad by the end because everyone I liked was gone. I turned BCS on randomly one day, gave it a couple episodes and realized I liked it.

BCS basically continued off where BB left off in style, writing, and ideas, and just continues on. There is just more likable characters through the show too.

Time of the Apes is classic for its dubbing and editing:

Johnny, don't go, it's too dangerous outside

I don't care!

Attack from Space stuck with me for some reason.

Oh, New York Ninja is technically dubbed. That is a film shot in the 80s and released in 2022. Go check out the backstory on it, it's really interesting.

Yeah, TCM showed it as part of their Disability Reclaimed series, which is why I watched it. It walks the line of exploitation and empowerment. It's fascinating on that level.

 

It's kind of shocking seeing a couple of disabled people get beaten down, but it is worth it as it makes their journey feel real.

But the bad English dub, the one sound effect, and the fight scenes that happen every 5 minutes get laughably bad and boring.

I guess it lived up to the expectations with a name like "The Crippled Masters."

That could be said for the original run... and the movies... and the Comedy Central run... maybe that's just what the show is... 🤔

Seriously though, I think people forget how niche Futurama was/is. It has always been a minimum of good, but only appealed to the hardcore nerds way into science, sci-fi, animation, and occasionally fantasy.

Cruise is one of those actors who is good if the role is within his range. I think it's fair to say he is an okay actor at best, but AMAZiNG for choosing his roles.
