Get Weezer out there to do "Surf Wax Off Your Shoulder"

NEW YORK (AP) — Jay-Z will headline the Super Bowl halftime show at SoFi Stadium in Southern California.

One hopes this will settle the month-long edit war on the Death Riders wikipedia page over whether or not KeMalito is actually a member

I have watched Holiday Touchdown: A Bears Love Story, and the beef scene is an absolute travesty. It appears no one in the production crew knew what "dipped" means in the script. Serving a dry beef with nothing on it? Is this some sick joke?

There should be a national period of mourning when Dan Hedaya dies. Weeklong tributes, flags at half staff, the works.

Showed up in 5+ movies a year and was 3 different characters across 3 different Star Trek series. That's the way to do it.

RIP Richard Riehle, the midwest's most characteristic character actor, came to Notre Dame from Wisconsin, did his MFA at Minnesota, got his start in Rochester Michigan.

Standalone 4K release of The Killing plz

I got extremely nerdy with Michael Chaiken, producer of Criterion's amazing new Complete Kubrick set! We talked about restoring Kubrick's shorts, the one shot in Eyes Wide Shut that still drove its DP crazy, and much more: www.avclub.com/the-complete...

Sitting in the computer room playing a lot of Civ II, listening to Q101 on a Sony 9950W radio (I still have it!). "If It Makes You Happy" had an absolute stranglehold on that station playlist.

It's for Geoff Jenkins, Mark Loretta, and Rickie Weeks.

how do we get through this many names and not list Bill Hall. this is for Bill Fucking Hall, okay?

Trimmed my hair too short on the sides and not on the top, so now I look like James Traficant

Think this is my fav REM song. Had a very long genesis, there were demos of it recorded for Lifes Rich Pageant

It’s been a bad day, please don’t take a picture… 🙂‍↔️ “Bad Day” was released as a single on October 14, 2003. Here’s the video directed by Tim Hope.

I feel like AI chatbots will usher in a new golden age of people writing out "I am planning on intentionally doing a crime"

I guess I shouldn't get annoyed at Tubi, as it looks like these are all movies uploaded by bottom-barrel distributor Red Rocket Media

While they were eating, Ditka took bread, broke it and gave it to his superfans, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you."

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

Before Time Warner, Warner Bros. was owned by Kinney Services Inc, a holding corporation of funeral homes, parking lots, and industrial cleaning services. (They also bought DC Comics before they bought Warner, this is why Warner owns DC.)

Old enough to remember Warner Communications. Old enough to remember Time Warner. Old enough to remember AOL Time Warner. Old enough to remember WarnerMedia (AT&T), Old enough to remember Warner Bros Discovery… the Ellison acquision sucks but let’s not pretend Warner is some old school indie

Anyway, a movie culture without the possibility of insane overpriced whiffs will be a less healthy movie culture, and I'll eat these words the day that I can say that David Ellison has taken at least three big creative gambles, but I'm not holding my breath. x

"Bears fan favorite Eddie Jackson" uhhh... [citation needed]

Eddie Jackson’s Bojack’s (2021-2022): Perhaps the only time a NFL safety has ever received their own cereal, then-Bears fan favorite, Eddie "BoJack" Jackson earned this distinction, with what was essentially Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

Up until the last 15 minutes, Jaws 4 is better than Jaws 3. (This was all triggered by realizing I had never seen Jaws 2, and they're all on Netflix) #LastFourWatched

They're doing CDOs again but instead of subprime mortgages they're filling them with GPUs.

the funniest thing about the "we don't trust the media" people is that they will trust literally anyone else. like, if you have an image and text, they'll buy it. shaking keys at babies type logic.

I don’t trust the mainstream media, but I feel like the primary alternate model, getting the news from the posts of a 14 year-old Romanian schizophrenic shitposter named “G00n3R the Swamp Pervert,” is not necessarily a superior alternative.

Wrestling is so beautiful because where else can you see 2 men competitively backflip at each other why commentary says tearfully “it’s what he would have wanted” and that be exactly right

I don’t know when the last time was that you could assume everyone had heard the most popular song in the world but it was no later than the 1980s. We’re a long way past “White Christmas”

Violent Saturday is very good (also a bank heist crime movie shot in Cinemascope!) Towing is very bad - but shot in 1976 industrial Chicago with young Joe Mantegna and Mike Nussbaum #LastFourWatched

Bears QB Tyson Bagent is dealing with a concussion and is in the NFL’s concussion protocol, sources say. With Caleb Williams likely out with a hamstring injury, Case Keenum could be the starter vs the Eagles.
