Cool that it was mainly driven by two unique, original horror movies that overperformed (Obsession, Backrooms), a well done sci-fi book adaptation (Project Hail Mary), and essentially a concert film of the world’s most popular artist (Michael).
Maybe we’ll get more stuff like that and less sequels, spinoffs, and remakes.

The topic is about Pride Month, not people being gay.

re: Pearl Harbor released in theaters 25 years ago today

The topic of one of Roger Ebert's most famous reviews:
"Pearl Harbor is a two-hour movie squeezed into three hours, about how on Dec. 7, 1941, the Japanese staged a surprise attack on an American love triangle."
"Pearl Harbor is a two-hour movie squeezed into three hours, about how on Dec. 7, 1941, the Japanese staged a surprise attack on an American love triangle."
To me, it reads like a Starz source spoke to Deadline anonymously about it, so I doubt it’ll get expanded on.
Sounds like they loaded a show up with black/women/gay characters thinking the black/women/gay audience would follow. When it ended up being mostly white dudes watching, they decided not to invest anything else in it.

And praises them for staying so brave and writing amidst this looming threat.

He went on to explain how he’s often told that he and partner Matt Stone are fearless for these days devoting so much of their animated comedy to mocking Donald Trump, which has created a ratings bonanza and reinvigorated the show while also angering the White House.
Parker shouted out his writing staff for being brave alongside them, “especially this year when we started saying like, ‘OK, so this is the show we’re going to do,’ and they’re like, ‘Oh, OK — that’s gonna really piss some people off.'” He noted that throughout the show’s three-decade run, “there’s always groups telling you what you can and can’t say; now that group has a military and so it is scarier. They have to be fearless.”

Starz cancels "Spartacus: House of Ashur" after one season for... demographic reasons?
Posted by Kinderman on 5/23/26 at 9:15 pm
Do what?

quote:
Steven S. Knight’s big return to the “Spartacus” Universe with Spartacus: House of Ashur will not go beyond its freshman season at Starz, which has canceled the gladiator drama. Lionsgate Television, which produces the series, is shopping it to other platforms, sources tell Deadline.
quote:
The makeup of the follow-up’s audience did not quite align with Starz’s focus on women and underrepresented audiences, sources said.
The sword-and-sandal genre is inherently male-skewing and popular with white viewers. Still, like its predecessor, House of Ashur features a diverse cast with storylines that feature prominently women and characters of underrepresented backgrounds. Examples include powerful Black gladiatrix Achillia, played by Tenika Davis, as well as multiple spotlights of LGBTQIA+ characters.

SC native here and the population has unquestionably gotten bluer in recent years (though not at the same level as NC or GA). Mostly due to the overflow of northern/Cali transplants pouring into places like Greenville/Spartanburg, Charleston, and the Myrtle Beach area. Rural SC is still very red though.
re: Excluding Salma Hayek who is the sexiest woman who appeared in a horror movie?
Posted by Kinderman on 5/22/26 at 5:21 pm to Dawglovertoo
I was gonna say the obvious, Salma Hayek in "From Dusk Til Dawn," but she wasn't the star. And I'm taking your question seriously, like we always do here on the M/TV Board.
If we're going solely by sexiness and disregarding the actual movie's quality, I'll say Alexandra Daddario in "Texas Chainsaw 3D."

Google going away from traditional listed search results, moving towards an AI experience
Posted by Kinderman on 5/20/26 at 7:21 pm
quote:
The era of the “ten blue links” is officially over.
At its Google I/O conference on Tuesday, Google unveiled an AI-powered overhaul of Search centered around a reimagined “intelligent search box” — what the company describes as the biggest change to this entry point to the web since the search box debuted more than 25 years ago.
quote:
Instead of returning a simple list of links, Google Search will drop users into AI-powered interactive experiences at times. Google is also introducing tools that can dispatch “information agents” to gather information on a user’s behalf, along with tools that let users build personalized mini apps tailored to their needs.
quote:
The resulting experience will no longer look much like how people envision Google Search, which has long been defined by ranked links to websites that have the information you need.
With the revamped Search experience, the new search box simply expands to accommodate longer, more conversational queries, rather than making you decide what type of search experience or mode you want to choose at the start of your query.
quote:
Google is also introducing agentic capabilities and AI-powered interactive features into the search experience. This means people will spend even less time clicking the traditional blue links that Google Search used to return.
Starting this summer, people will be able to create, customize, and manage multiple new “information agents” within Google Search. These agents can work in the background 24/7 to track changes on the web and alert you to new information. For instance, you could have an agent track market movements based on customer parameters, Google suggests.

I'm a simple man. I search a topic, I see a list of sites, I click on the most pertinent one. That's all I need, Google.

Bartlett confessed to having had an affair “that lasted a few months” with a “slightly boring” actor around 1959, eight years after she married Daniels.

It always amazes me how people don't realize how bad that shite sucks until it happens to them.
re: Why is the NBA so sloppy?
Posted by Kinderman on 5/17/26 at 7:50 pm to Oilfieldbiology
quote:
It’s sloppy because for the past 20 years American youth basketball has been sloppy at the top. AAU and constant tournaments focus more on raw athleticism and less on skills and understanding of the game.
Yep, and it’s happening in a lot of youth sports now unfortunately, especially the travel/tournament environments. Youth sports used to be (and should be) about developing good habits, learning techniques, refining skills. Now it’s just about winning, which means letting your athletes out-athlete the other team. You’re not learning anything doing that.
