    I get what Irish is saying but I agree with Duke that 2020 was a rough year. Hard to discuss cinema when a lot of movies are scattered across a dozen pay streaming sites.

    And it's happened once again
    I'll turn to a friend
    Someone that understands
    And sees through the master plan
    But everybody's gone
    And I've been here for too long
    To face this on my own
    Well, I guess this is growing up

    People have been thinking MC would end since The Dark Knight came out. I distinctly remember conversations about it that year.

    We're 13 years since then.

    I think we're fine.
    Hey I was on RT and the Corrie until the end. Might as well hang around here until this site ends, too.

    They're retired ... ? I know that's not much of an answer. They have always visited for ridiculous amounts of time and nobody understands why. They live like nomads in an RV they own. They own houses in New York and Florida and just drive around the country.
    That's very boomer of them haha.

    I can't promise I won't get bored and create a new account down the road, though.

    Irish might have a point considering the post counts? But my OCD is similar to Duke's so I prefer the way everything is set up. With the exception of the "new posts" button vanishing after you enter a thread.

    Why are full grown adults beating each other up for Pokémon cards?
    "All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"

    "Rick...it's a flamethrower."

    But seriously have you seen this?

    Both Target and Walmart have made company wide bans on sale of Pokémon cards and some other sports cards.

    On the BombCast a couple of weeks ago they were talking about an incident at a Target where an old man pulled a freaking cane sword.

    What the hell is going on?

    Maybe we should rebrand MC as a High Blood Pressure message board?

    There are enough of us.

    Yeah I read about that. Apparently cards have gone up in value during the pandemic. It's wild.

    Sweet! We are the High Blood Pressure Board! I bet someone would see that, join to ask medical questions and then realize we are primarily a film message board.

    I may copy and paste my reviews, but I use Letterboxd more of a true diary of my movie journaling, while I hope there's true discussion that comes from it on here. Take from that what you will.

    Oh totally. I love that i can look up a film and read my initial thoughts on stuff. Especially when it comes to horror franchise stuff.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Oh god this play!

    Baseball has a lot of routine and while you can blame the 1st baseman here - someone who's smart enough (like El Mago) can mess with other players really good.

    Jen made me a big batch of egg salad last week.

    I ate it every day for 4 days. The last day I had it for lunch and a snack later.

    That night my gas was so bad, it woke her from her sleep and she had to run to the bathroom to vomit.

    I had planned on going north for the weekend, but then realized I was the ‘on call’ guy this weekend. Can’t complain, can’t recall any other holiday weekend I’ve been on call in 10+ years. Since I’m staying home, I picked up a brisket, a couple a chickens, and some yard sausage.

    No idea if we’re having guests, but I’m cooking chicken tonight and working on my brisket game tomorrow.

    Breaking news: due to the breeze out of the north last night, Minnesotans have begun building a wall along the U.S. northern border.

    Us Cubs fans love Javy because he does crazy stuff like that. Dude is a wizard. Also the baseball thread is dead.

    I really want to try Magic Spoon cereal, but $39 USD for 4 boxes of cereal is pretty steep.
