I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, few people have gone on as big a 3 movie heater as John McTiernan from ‘87 to ‘90 with Predator, Die Hard and HFRO.

In language ole Tommy would understand, this is the equivalent of him saying he coached Alabama.

It’s also correlated with the rise in popularity of One Piece. DOWN WITH LUFFY.

Did he say that about the Ark too or just the Grail?

Since when is interacting with people an important skill for politicians…wait, I think I see our problem now…

I can’t even unpack all the levels of bullshit here.

It’s been growing far longer than that

I’d go beyond that and extend the lack of decision-making care to things far more mundane than life and death. Just an escalating feeling that nobody in charge of anything knows anything about anything or how to do anything.

If you listen closely, you can hear me cackling with joy from the upper deck when Sirius started

Whoever thought up Punk getting the MJ intro deserves a raise.

I’m not sure to which that comp is more unfair to, which means it’s probably pretty spot on.

If the last 25 years has taught us anything, it’s being laughably wrong about such things - even obviously so in advance - is the only way to be “serious”

That and villainy that would have been rejected as too corny for 1950s comic book writers.

I’m very upset, but I’ve got nothing of substance to contribute to the conversation on this platform. When you see me posting through it about random stuff, don’t confuse it for apathy.

The name “Francis Fukuyama” just popped into my head for some reason

The inventory being primary driver probably doesn’t survive the transition away from RSNs at least not without substantial alteration.

Recovery time is a real thing. Fewer games means more time between games, which means fewer games where players are at elevated risk due to cumulative fatigue/wear.

We’ve known this for a decade.

Those aren’t different things.

I’ve been told that the local TV deals are the single biggest obstacle, but with RSNs seemingly on the way out, that might not matter much someday soon.
