The price of concessions will always be high. It is how the movie theater makes money. The movie theater gets shite return from the actual tickets. They rent the movie to show. Now with streaming, the movies are staying not as long as they used to stay in the theater.

Why do you both need your own popcorn? Just buy the bigger one and split. Usually has at least 1 free refill. Or could not buy concessions. Sneak in own snacks or drinks. I don't see the need to bitch about prices if you paid for it.

Will Ferrell along with Ben Stiller has not been funny in years.

I was at a friend's house. He asked me if I thought LSU was going to win. I told him , "yes. By double digits". Made a bet with him and other friends he had over. LSU won by double digits. I pocketed $300.

F all the all way around.

Football had CFP expectations w/ Nuss coming back. Key additions to WRs (more speed) and defensive players. Failure all the way around as offense sucked and Nuss injury never being detected/healed. It was a huge failure.

Basketball had low expectations and lived up to it. Failure to do anything.

Baseball is the biggest disappointment. Omaha is always going to the be expectation. Winning back to back is harder now than it was 30 years ago. The absolute crash of the team was unexpected. The transfer portal was complete whiff. They played with heart at times but had way more self inflicted wounds than should have been. Failure to make the NCAA tournament as well as being swept in 5 series is something that should never happen.

I have 37 chapters. Just under 89K words. I'll upload to Amazon Kindle as well. Congrats getting to the end. It is tough doing first time. I am looking into some online writing classes. Would like to get an instructor feedback.

I have used a few AI programs to see where I need to adjust. I have a few family/friends that are reading to give me human feedback. I know where my strength is and what my weakness is. I just need to fix the weakness area.

For the last 6 months I have been working on a novel. I have completed my first rough draft. I sent the full document to some friends I trust to read and give me feedback. I am continuing to make revisions (not structurally just tighten some areas). I am looking to see if this is something that others would feel like reading based on the pitch idea. My ultimate goal is to write a series of novels with this main character and 2 supporting characters. I have the story planned for the 2nd novel. Here is the pitch idea :

When a former Navy JAG officer is framed for the murder of a colleague, he must team up with his allies to uncover a long-buried conspiracy tied to his biggest case — before a powerful figure from his past destroys everything he has left.
The story features a layered intellectual villain, a capable hero who's trying to leave violence behind, strong female characters who pull their weight, and a D.C. setting that mixes political power, gritty alleys, and hidden threats. It builds to a tense final act with real personal stakes and justice served through (mostly) the system.

Any feedback is welcome. Thank you

Hollywood is running out of ideas. It is either a reboot that no one wants. A sequel from 20, 30, or 40 years ago (maverick the exception). A comic book superhero movie that is not true to the character of fan base or the audience.
Now the latest thing the last few years is biopics on musicians. Rumor has it that Madonna is pitching an idea for a biopic about her life.

The sad thing is the original movie ideas that are made have no marketing behind it.

Looking at the roster, there are a lot of young players. The portal was a huge miss. I trust Jay to prioritize what he needs. The season will end earlier than last year and he can get a head start on the top portal players that fit his scheme.
It is what it is. Disappointed in the season but I won't panic.

Wade will have the fan that wanted him back very happy. Let's not kid ourselves with who the best coach and best sport is behind the money maker that is football. It is baseball.

I hope Wade can bring LSU to the Final Four one day. We all know what expectations are with baseball and what Johnson has done in 4 years as LSU head coach.
