Just watched it last night and was not very impressed. The acting itself is good but the story is disjointed
The most difficult part is that there are no “good” characters to root for. The ANTIFA crew are self absorbed terrorists and the government is well meaning but racist. I found myself not caring what happened in the movie because all the characters were so unlikeable
Pretty much how I felt as well. PTA did some incredible things here but I didn't like any of the characters and didn't really care what happened to them. I also thought, at its base, it's just a man on the run story that was a bit too disjointed.

Name them.
You have a very weird obsession with this show. It's to the level of social media bots defending someone like Swift or Sabrina Carpenter.
It's all subjective, but not everyone has to agree that it's a good show. It has definitely declined over time, and I don't know a single person, in real life, who has been pleased with the last season.

Could've taken a 45 minute nap in the middle, woke up, piece everything together that you missed and still be disappointed with that ending (even though it was bold.)

I’m going to say something that is going to get me downvoted to oblivion, and there’s no way I can say it without someone taking me wrong, so I’m just going to go ahead and say it. This program is never going to move forward until the memories of how Nicholas Lou Saban did things … and I’m not talking about his commitment to detail and excellence, those should be eternal, I am talking about stuff like his demeanor, etc., during practice and games … dissipates. We cannot afford to spend 40 years waiting perpetually for someone out of the Saban tree like we did waiting for someone out of the Bryant tree. There’s an element of our fan base who thought then and think now that will fix everything, but I thought then and think now that attitude reduces football to a cult of personality level and won’t work in this new era.
We were already in trouble when fans starting comparing the early Saban years to his last couple of teams, when the talk was all about penalties and “anxiety.”
People need to realize that every great coach has their own style and there isn’t a blueprint to winning it all and at the level Saban did, or else everyone would try the same thing. Of course we’ve wanted better since the retirement but there were cracks in the foundation even before that moment and I think the program is headed in a positive direction.

Eddington
Warfare
Caught Stealing
F1
Bugonia
Phoenician Scheme

I’m expecting Marty Surpreme to round out my top 10 but if not I would go 28 Years Later or Weapons.

Here’s the solution, just stop watching ESPN.
Looks like I’m adding Josh Pate to the list too, that dude went downhill big time this year.

Landman isnt prestige TV Its just a fun show with billy bob going around doing ridiculous stuff and dropping 1 liners. Same as tulsa king with Stallone. Enjoy it for what it is
Exactly. I’ve never seen so much complaining about a show that is just for entertainment, it’s not trying to chase awards. Just have fun or stop watching, the constant complaints every week about women, drive times, and whatever else not being totally accurate is just as annoying as the worst parts of the show.

The 4th is going to be the actual trailer. It goes Steve, Thor, Doom, and then trailer.
re: Entry level Film Job (PA) in BR
Posted by TheNameIsDalton on 12/14/25 at 12:37 pm to JW
quote:
I'm returning home for a studio feature film that will be based out of BR starting next month. Not ideal for having to bring most of the crew in from NOLA, but opens up and interesting opportunity for someone in BR that might want to break into or continue in the business as a production assistant (in the Art Department). I am interested in someone who genuinely wants to work and learn. No real experience needed. Generally, these jobs are filled by 20 somethings who might have gone to art school or studied GFX etc. Not a requirement of course, but helps if they have a similar background.
This is a decently paid gig and I like getting new people involved, so if you know someone that might be interested in joining the circus that is filmmaking, come forward. It's a full time, 50 hour a week job .... and not an internship. Why here? I would rather start in the TD universe than say traditional social media or god help us -- Craigslist.
Just a thought and wanted to throw it out there just in case a really good candidate is out there.
I actually explored trying to get a job in the industry a few years ago but nothing ever materialized. I was looking for an assistant production accountant role. Unfortunately, I'm not in the BR area but if you ever have openings in Alabama, feel free to reach out.

About to leave Huntsville for Birmingham.
I actually don't have too much experience with Birmingham, anyone have any good recommendations for restaurants/bars near the arena?

Same as the PSU rumors, it’s likely a small handful of people spreading it and people reposting that.
PSU rumors were from a message board that somehow blew up. They were never credible. DeBoer was never mentioned as a serious candidate from anyone that covers the program. We at least already know from the Michigan on3 guys they’re going to at least reach out to him and make an offer.
So we’ll see what happens but just pointing out this time the rumor has a bit more merit.

Freeman is sitting pretty right now. He can stay at Notre Dame and be a playoff contender every year going 10-2, move to the NFL, or wait for Ohio State. Michigan would be surprising.

I actually give it a pretty solid chance of it happening but only if Bama loses to OU.
He’s more of a culture fit at UM, is still coaching at a big time program but in a weaker conference, and he’s not going to see a drop off in NIL funds.
Year 3 is a pivotal year for him at Bama, he could cash out now and still land the job he would’ve had if Harbaugh left just a bit sooner.

Hopefully we can get a sell out soon, would be a bad look otherwise.

I enjoyed it more than Eddington and OBAA, which all have similar themes. Really want to give it a rewatch.

Franklin was fired less than a year after making the semi final. Heupel won 8 games (zero quality wins) and they’re still pumping their chest after getting blown out at Ohio State
