Steve Harvey: the category is "what you don't want your eunuch doing." Emperor Qin Shi Huang: After much reflection, Mr. Harvey, the fortunes point me to "scheming." Steve Harvey: show me "scheming"! (Buzzer dings, first tile flips over, Harvey and audience start going crazy)

I also think that being close to Occidental means that college kids wind up there a lot. Last night, 90% of the audience had never seen the movie before, and a lot of the audience had never been to Vidiots before. So, maybe they learned something, and maybe next time they'll actually take it in.

Also it is a theater that specializes more in crowd pleasing and community, which is great when you’re seeing The Lost Boys but might encourage that horrible movie laughing

A tweet saying "every single municipal budget looks like the dril candle budget tweet" with a graph showing Police taking like 90% of a city's budget. Baltimore specifically.

When people talk about how systemic and structural issues don't exist but the data all looks like this.

You know, @aheartofgould.bsky.social said the same thing afterwards. I hope it’s not true, as I love the theater. I think it being close to Occidental has something to do with it?

To the people who were in this audience who thought it was laughable: you are not better than Wong Kar-Wai

aside from the obvious revulsion i feel at a gag like this: talking to a robot as if it's a ghost proves that modern technology has unleashed a level of Peasant Brain of which I have not before been aware

Yes, I don’t even think an apology is in order but it does seem to violate an unspoken contract that keeps every movie, even very bad ones, from disintegrating into nihilistic nonsense

Fuck I’ll have to letterbox this won’t I

Funny thing is, the job of writing banal and factually incorrect columns is something that LLMs can do right now, and yet somehow his job is safe.

Hope you dig it
