    I can't be said enough that Jaws (especially the first half} was the best movie to watching during the pandemic. "we can't close the beaches during the 4th of july! This is a summer town! Maybe it was a boat propeller that killer that girl!" stuff Is really the perfect metaphor for the anti-lockdown anti-vax crowd.

    Ya i watched it a lot early in the pandemic

    The mayor’s motivations all “make sense,” at least from his perspective. he’s a villain, but he’s never exagerrated, there’s a (contemptable) coherence to what he’s up to, so the collision of his motivation and Brody’s is good conflict

    In the book, the mayor’s a bigger character who is having an affair n shit. The movie mayor is a way stronger version

    The best part of a lot of horror movies is the first 20 minutes hanging out with the character before everything goes to shit.

    You guys would love Sledgehammer.
    I had Ghoulies on last night and there's a really fun hangout scene with a character who calls himself Toad Boy.

    No offense to Australia, but they lost the Great Emu War, so it doesn't surprise me that they have issues keeping animals under control.

    Edit: Also, animals are awesome in general.

    My favorite part of the first half of Jaws is when they have the town meeting after the little kid is killed and in the background there's a chalkboard with a stick figure drawing of a shark eating a boy

    This is where having a wife with a small appetite comes in clutch. She never even finishes the sandwich or burger, let alone the fries. Never even have to ask

    At a restaurant, booths are better than tables.

    Booths aren't really accessible for everyone as far as weight and certain disabilities so I know many who prefer tables

    I don't think this is unpopular so much as unfortunate but I struggle to watch war movies or shows cause I'm rly bad at telling people apart unless I know the actors and when they're all in the same uniform its like actually impossible.

    Don't mind me just trying to get into band of brothers again and in ep 2 only know Kirk Acevedo and everyone else blends and idk what's happening.

    I like to think it really hits home how you know everyone at war is somebody to someone while also kinda being an unknown faceless thing in the grand scheme of war, but rly I just can't tell anyone apart lol

    Yeah as a big dude, a booth is a dice roll whether I'm about to have a miserable evening or not.

    Tables are way better than booths. Not tall stools though, those suck

    yeah good okay Prestigious

    This is fair

    This series has so many actors in super minor roles. Tom Hardy, James McAvoy, even a wild Jimmy Fallon

    I also love the part of Jaws where they got the wrong shark strung up on on the pier, and the fisherman asks what kind of shark it is. Hooper tells him it's a Tiger Shark, and they close up on the guy's face and he goes "a whaaaaaaaaat???"
