Definitely worth a watch! I had not read the book before watching it, which I think was good going into it.
I enjoyed it as a movie outright, but it wasn’t until I did a report on it for a class that I learned to appreciate a lot of the undertones and imagery that I didn’t catch on the first pass. If you come back after you watch it I’ll tell you my favorite subtle thing I missed the first time (which I’m sure is more obvious in the book)!
Gonna tack on The Mist to your list.
At the very least it stars Thomas Jane and Andre Bruagher, which is a win in its own right imo.
Surprised they didn’t wheel him out too
If you go to the site you can’t see anything but the join page with no visible adult content. I wonder if it was always like that or they temporarily set it like that.

Wish it said “Excellent source of BWAH”
I’ll never forget them first time seeing Rex Kramer, danger seeker. Hoooo boooy
I made this prediction before kind of joking, but I feel like it could still end up this way, where in the near future we’ll all be installing a FOSS AI after a fresh install whose sole job is to target the corpo AI’s on our local machines and continuously cripple them.
Do that and I’m fleeing to Europe
I remember having to crack the PIN code to access the locked channels (which would just give me access to things like skinemax late at night). I faked sick one day to stay home and set to work. I think there was a short timeout after a few failed attempts, so you could only go so fast. It only took 852 tries but I got it! It was 0852, which was just a straight line up the keypad 😑
To young me the most interesting part of that show was the beginning and seeing Mulder (David Duchovny) in something outside of the X-Files
Maybe the author is expecting their work to be scraped and illegally fed into more LLM’s than they’ll have actual readers
what career? Curb is over
Either lack of critical thinking or driven by greed.
You get the top to vote for you by ensuring they keep and/or increase their riches. That’s done by immediate things like tax cuts, or other long term strategies like cutting environmental protections and reducing the role of gov’t, allowing businesses to rape the planet and abuse their workforce as hard as possible to increase profits.
As for the rest of his supporters, the “MAGA” crowd, they’re kept in line by keeping them stupid, allowing you to more easily feed them propaganda and influence their emotions to fit your needs. Religion teaches them to be subservient from an early age and take a back seat to a higher power, whether that be god or the charismatic talking head at the alter or on tv, all the while leeching as much money from them as possible without leaving them totally destitute. This helps explain why conservatives/religious turds continue to attack early education (less chance of them learning to think critically and question things), school lunch programs (hinder brain development), libraries (access to other ideas/beliefs), sex education and abortions (keeping those accidental pregnancies from being stopped, thereby ensuring the already uneducated and poor families continue to have kids they cannot support financially and give a good education to). It’s all very sinister when you look at the whole picture. It’s why I detest religion, not so much the concept and practicing of religion, but how evil men have turned it into a weapon, and exploiting the very people they pretend to care about. A lot of the evil they push is all done under the guise of religious beliefs/freedoms.
I view MAGA/Republicans like Ace Rothstein views Don Ward in Casino when the lottery machines were rigged to hit jackpots, which is effectively: you’re either too dumb to see what’s happening or you’re in on it, either way you’re out!
Hi, Ted!
“That bank money was begging me to take it, your honor. Sittin’ there, with those tight little bands on; it was askin’ for it!”
I prefer to download instead of stream or watch a bunch of gifs, so when the time comes I just hit up a zero-day rip site and browse all the scenes from a majority of the major network sites.
