I will say Hollywood is one of my least favorite QT movies though. I have no idea why that movie is so beloved; it’s nowhere near top tier Tarantino IMO.

---

I get that and wasn’t sure how I felt about it the first time I saw it tbh, in part because I just had this melancholy feeling the whole time since I know what happened to Sharon Tate. But after repeated viewings i appreciated its greatness. Never got there with the Kill Bills. Some scenes are great rewatchables but overall doesn’t do it for me,

You’re right - it’s in a class above those.

So what? Cops don’t know about the $500k. And Melanie, a known associate of a felon, has got the marked bills. Who would believe her? Ordell? He didn’t believe Louis. Why would he believe Melanie.

---

If Melanie and Louis are telling the same story that’s different than Louis saying I shot Melanie and giving Ordell a bag with 40K.

The cops aren’t going to just take anyone’s word. I don’t think Ray really believes Jackie but he can’t prove anything. If someone is contradicting her story they will look into it further. The cops thinks she’s bringing 50k because that’s what Jackie told them, but Ordell/Louis/Melanie all know it’s supposed to be 500K and would say so, if they were arrested and there’s the bag with the books, how would she explain that? And if the cops find out she brought all 500 and only told them 50 she’d really be fricked. It all falls apart if Louis doesn’t shoot Melanie

But they were part of the plan from the start

---

Louis and Melanie were not always part of the plan, it was supposed to be Simone, they switched to Melanie at the last minute because Simone bolted with the 10K from the practice run.

was as meaningful as an NFL preseason game.

More like a week 18 NFL game

more than that since it’s a game that actually counts. It’s about on par with the SEC title Game in the 12 team era.

---

The SECCG in the 12 team era often determined who played for the BCS Title. Losing to LSU in 2001 cost Tennessee a title shot and sent them to a meaningless Citrus Bowl. The US still moves on as a Group winner and can still advance to the round of 16 at least

Books, laptops, tutors, food, housing, chance to go pro, what is wrong with that?

OU is a different team compared to wen we played them.

---

We beat them in Hoover a week before the regionals:lol:

They lost their last 4 SEC series. People need to remember that when they are melting down over a mid week loss or 2 bad SEC weekends in a row. It’s not football where 1 loss could kill you. It’s not over until it’s over.

for me jaws has not aged well pre cgi shark looks dated,

---

I really weep for the future I read stuff like this. You really didn’t get the movie frankly. Part of what makes it great is we don’t see the shark until the 3rd act and the famous though misquoted “you’re gonna need a bigger boat” scene. It’s so much more impactful than some cgi shark ripping people apart like Deep Blue Sea.
The 3 main characters: Brody, Hopper and Quint make Jaws the physical shark is not that important.

UGA because I like having 2 more CWS titles than Texas

I totally forgot about Martha. She really got screwed. I hope she was at least able to adopt the little girl.

frick that treasonous b*tch :lol: I hope she was miserable and lonely

Not sure how Paige will make out. Does she stay on the run. Does she turn herself in?

---

Always wondered that myself. It was 1987 so a lot easier to live under an assumed identity would she contact the KGB and continue working for them? She would probably have to move to another part of the country

quote:

---

Yes it does invalidate the criticism

---

The Saints were bad and trending down from 2021-25, sorry great drafts in 2006 and 2017 do not invalidate that. The compounded a tough cap situation with idiotic signings like Carr.

quote:

---

You have like 10+ franchises that have done nothing for 10+ years with even better draft picks. If we were behind NYJ, LVR, ARI, MIA, CLE, TEN then sure. If we were the worst/ least promising team in our division then sure.

---

The goal is to win not say at least we were better than the Jets Raiders and Browns :lol:

---

I don't care if we made a few stupid decisions, teams do that every year.

This is classic strawmaning. No one bats 1.000 at anything. It’s not just a bad decision here or there. 21-25 was a waste due to bad decisions compounded on other bad decisions. It was a waste. If they found the right coach QB and are moving in the right direction that’s obvious what we all want but no amount of lip stick will cover the pig that we’ve seen for 4-5 years while Ra-rahs were making excuses
