ONE OF THE COOLEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME!
It's actually a great look at race relations? Gabby Union is telling Kirsten Dunst not to put her white guilt money into her cheer squad, and the scene doesn't feel too "shea buttery" because Ms. Union remains one of the coolest, hottest women in the entire world. And the love story in this still works, with Dunst realizing that her corn-fed boy-toy is a loser, and that she should go with this rock and roll boy!!!! Dope movie to watch with your lady
taste is taste :)

Been recommended this movie a bunch over the years and finally peeped it last night(on tubi). Now I must recommend this visually stunning action packed racing space romance comedy.

Badass, intelligent, silly, hot women kicking ass??? What more could you want in a movie??? TIM CURRY, Bill Murray, Sam Rockwell and his fancy footwork all bonuses. Let us not forget this movie brought us Independent Women Part 1… we have much to honor with this film… including my newfound desire to wear leather pants…

I got the bullets!
Super outdated moments (james deans’ character kept being misogynistic to his mom for no reason was annoying) and all of the kids had daddy issues. But it still had it’s redeemable moments kinda! really only glad i finally heard the ”bullets” quote that was referenced in la la land. Gotta be honest, it does get you invested at times, heart racing even. Pretty cheap to buy/rent on apple tv rn.

I'm often accused of being an "old soul", a categorization I vehemently dislike because it pretends as if my taste is because of nostalgia, as opposed to what is actually cool and compelling. (If something cool comes out now, I enjoy it, but we're in a down period when it comes to culture). But, something old about me, is that I do not care at all about TikTok ending, if does happen. If Elon takes it over from the Chinese, you might as well leave anyway, but I'm just worried at why this is a huge deal for people. It's just an app. Another one will be made. TikTok is not culture, it directly flattens culture into these ten second clips that take music, movies --- things that you need to process --- into something that is now consumed by everyone at a rapid pace, not allowing for the nuances, the style, the aesthetics to sit with us.
I have never watched something on TikTok and thought that this is something in that pushing American culture to deeper heights. I am sorry. Now I am sure they're good stuff on the app, but it's not really a necessity. Whenever I hear the words "it's blowing up on TikTok", my mind immediately growls.
I understood why X becoming overrun with Elon bots and right wingers is a big deal; X actually created things, made careers, made American life, and American events available to be seen by everyone. However, TikTok is a corrupt fantasy, chopping at the wires that make physical connection important.
Read a book! Go to the movies! Go to the restaurant of a cuisine that is unheralded, go to a baseball game. Who cares about TikTok?

There's something quite startling about Martin Scorsese's 1980's period compared to the rest of his decades as one of America's greatest filmmakers. In the 80's, he was weird, strange, and making weirdly manic films that feel more New York than even some of his movies about the mob. They're movies about characters who aren't glamarous people that they want to be, but rather, are losers who can't seem to correctly fucntion in normal society. They're non-violent sociopaths. I saw The King of Comedy at Metrograph recently, and it's exhilarating, hilarious, manic, and scary. With Jerry Lewis, Bobby De Niro and Sandra Bernhard, Scorsese was able to create a world where incels who are bad at comedy are wishing for fame. Sound familiar?
This is a great movie. In 1983, it was a box office flop. But in 2025, it is magical in how it's telling the future. A future of scam artists who don't want to work to get there, and don't want to sit in their mediocrity: they want to steal to get their fifteen seconds. Go watch this masterpiece.

Like almost every morning, I make a big ol breakfast salad for myself. Eggs, greens, onions, tuna, spanich, olives. I never taste anything as filling as this. It's perfect. Great if you are looking for a big breakfast to hold you down during your work day. Get yourself a salad spinner; makes it easier.
