they did the elam thing for a few years and it was really only good that first time.

all these new formats are band aids over the real problem that players just don’t give a shit about the all star game, and nothing is going to change that. they need to just go the NFL Pro Bowl route and replace the game with a bunch of silly activities.

dunno about budget, I'm just taking in terms of the demand for these types of movies.

I have a feeling it's because zany animated movies are an easier sell to kids.

well it’s a six inch display so presumably it’ll be a lot cheaper. maybe designed with an always-on display. And the UI optimized for home oriented stuff. could be interesting.

my mom is a retired special ed teacher and has taken a big interest in helping a neighbor (divorced) with their young autistic child. maybe this is partly why, hadn’t thought about that.

“Much like live theater, the show, especially Season 3, was asking the audience to be an active participant,” Sudeikis said. “Some people want to do that, some people don’t. Some people want to judge—they don’t want to be curious,” the opposite of Coach Lasso’s belief in Walt Whitman’s quote “be curious, not judgmental.”

so basically "no criticism allowed"...

“I’ll never understand people who will go on talking about something so brazenly that they, in my opinion, clearly don’t understand,” Sudeikis continues. “And God bless ’em for it; it’s not their fault. They don’t have imaginations and they’re not open to the experience of what it’s like to have one.

..."if there's something you don't like, you just don't understand"...

“Everybody’s in better shape than when they started,” Sudeikis says of the characters and the resolutions of their storylines. “Like a good Boy or Girl Scout at a campsite, we left it better than we found it. And if you don’t see that in that show, then I don’t know what show you’re watching.”

and "our show is good because it has happy endings".

okay Jason.

until the demand for it skyrockets. then it’s either gone or just as expensive as all the tariffed coffee.

agreed. I'm just saying "simple" or "complex" has nothing to do with it.

 

The movie company partnered with Joya Studio to bring multi-sensory screenings exclusively to Alamo Drafthouse theaters nationwide. The immersive moviegoing experience will take place at advance screenings on Oct. 30, ahead of the film’s Nov. 8 release date in the U.S.

The aroma will be activated at Alamo theaters via Joya Studio’s atomization technology, which employs cold-air diffusion to disperse scented molecules as fine, dry air without the use of heat, water or alcohol.

 

not a perfect translation, but pretty good.

 

sorry for the hasty photo, was in too much of a hurry to scarf it down.

The U.S., France and other allies jointly called Wednesday for an “immediate” 21-day cease-fire to allow for negotiations in the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah that has killed more than 600 people in Lebanon in recent days.

The joint statement, negotiated on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, says the recent fighting is “intolerable and presents an unacceptable risk of a broader regional escalation.”

“We call for an immediate 21-day cease-fire across the Lebanon-Israel border to provide space for diplomacy,” the statement said. “We call on all parties, including the governments of Israel and Lebanon, to endorse the temporary cease-fire immediately.”

 

Maybe the mod(s) got banned by admins? Doesn't seem to be too active thankfully, but it's probably only a matter of time before moderation will be needed there.

ICE is dead, and none of the developments make it to road cars anyway. Meanwhile, battery/EV tech needs all the development it can get and F1's have been frozen for years.

Make F1 road relevant again, not just aerospace on bubble gum tires. Let teams compete on the tech that actually matters to the motoring world.
