  • As a Steelers fan, I’d be interested to know how many were Brown, Bell, and Legarrete Blount.

    Blount came in, which was unpopular with quite a few people, seemed to get everyone publicly to smoke weed, become super self-centered and arrogant, and generally be dicks, then was released.

    So take away that one “bad influence,” even if it was just to bring everything out into the open, and I’d like to see where we’re at… Then take away Roethisberger. Basically, see if it was a few shitty people or an “institutional” problem.



  • Moonfall. So where to start…

    It was a big budget action flick, with sci-fi mixed in. Now don’t get me wrong, I can suspend my disbelief just fine - you want to tell me that a zombie can rip a mountain in two, so be it. But the scientist in me just couldn’t get past a couple things. It’s an absolute blast of a movie, with great visuals. Mild spoilers below.

    They successfully hide from gravity behind a concrete barrier. A space shuttle launches from the ground through a tsunami (literally in the water). Just absolutely bonkers. But so, so fun.




  • I actually sat down a coworker years ago and did this. It was surprisingly easy once I realized something - I’ll sit down and watch a lot of movies on TV, but there are a few I refuse to. Too many commercials and edits just make me furious… those are my favorites. Getting down to 10 was hard enough, so top 5 are in no order. Some changed how I thought about things, some just entertained me for years:

    The Matrix

    Interstellar

    Monty Python and the Holy Grail

    Fight Club

    Schindler’s List

    And because it was so hard, here are a few more that just as easily could be top 5:

    Silence of the Lambs, Inception, V for Vendetta, OG Star Wars trilogy, Indiana Jones trilogy, Kung Pow, Blair Witch Project

    Edit: Forgot one - Arrival. Probably in top 5, no idea which to demote. Fight Club maybe
