Romeo+Juliet is an amazing production. One of my favourites. If you look at the script is one of the most true to Shakespeare’s. And so beautiful.

Are you interested in productions or adaptations? Everyone’s recommending great productions but adapting Shakespeare (ripping Shakespeare off) is an industry in itself. My personal favourite adaptation is 10 Things I Hate About You. But to be honest is really on the back of some truly great performances not the retelling of Taming of the Shrew.

I really love the way SNW is filling in that transition period where Kirk’s this hard driving, blue flame, academy nerd, who’s out be youngest captain ever, but he’s also deeply head over heals in love with Carol. And how it becomes obvious that when Carol breaks his heart soon he’s going start acting out and pretending he’s some kind of slut during the TOS period. But we all know he’s just crying inside because the love of his life has dumped him.
“If there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with 11 Nazis.” It really is as simple as that.
Copenhagen for win for sure, it’s got Tivoli Gardens which are so much fun! I also really enjoyed Stockholm but it’s so clean and quiet I felt like I should take my shoes off before going Outside
The you are lucky lucky person. If you go down the Tim Curry performances rabbit hole you are in for some amazing experiences.
I agree with you. There’s a really good 2 hour movie somewhere in that trilogy but it just needs a really good editor to cut out of all the bloat.
The Greatest Era of gaming was when I was between 12 and 22. And this is true for everyone no matter what their age is now. Between 12 and 22 I had enough time and energy to game all night and still go to school and none of life’s problems were stopping me
That was a legit funny joke. Dangerfield’s stuff was pretty good and a lot of it still stands up today because he was usually punching up. His shtick was always “I don’t get no respect” but always because he was schulb not because the others were wrong.
If you’ve doing it, do me a favor. Keep an eye on these guys, 'cause around the 74 minute mark, there’s gonna be a room full of grown men crying.
“I then walked over and said “hi I’m a lesbian” to the both of them. Anyways I’m married to one of them now somehow.” - This is possibly one of the most lesbian sentences I’ve ever read. Congratulations and mazel tov!
No this is LOSS
Honestly? “Make it purr, not number one”
I don’t know there seems be a shit ton of Toxic Masculinity too.

A more recent one that really struck me hard was the date lines in True Detective - Night Country.
Dec. 22nd Third Day of Night
It really grounded me how fucking creepy it must be to see the sunset and know it’s not coming back for months.
I know that not most woman aren’t in to a men just for his money, but the kinda chicks who will double up on a guy like me are!
I once had a book of Batman short stories and there was an excellent story about Batman having to infiltrate the stand up comedy scene. It was some weird Joker plot to kill comics and Batman had go uncover as a comic. Of course Bruce hires the best writers to create the perfect stand up routine but he just keeps dieing out there. After a heart to heart with another comic he comes to the awakening that real comedy comes from a real place inside the comedian and he tells this joke: When I was kid I lost my parents. It was heartbreaking but then something happened even worse happened I was in first grade. My new teacher was having us do presentations on our parents jobs and she asked me what my parents do for a living. I started to sniffle and my eyes got wet, and I choked out “my parents are dead”. Shocked and afraid, she didn’t know what to do but in a stunned quiet voice, not knowing what else to say she whispered “What did they do before they died?” And so I yelled “Please! Don’t shoot them!” and clutched my chest failing to the ground. I’m ruining the joke because I can’t remember it exactly but there’s just something about Bruce turning his pain in to comedy that just got me right in the heart.
