You have to be in the right mood, it has minimal music which means more than most people realize when movie watching, but White Zombie is okay. If you want a similar idea but more modern and edgier you could go for The Serpent and the Rainbow. Both are about Zombies as perceived in Voodoo culture rather than as flesh eating ghouls.
Arsenic and Old Lace is superb. Mostly a comedy but takes a sudden turn into suspense briefly but effectively before the final act goes back to comedy.
Wow, that was cringe and gay even for Honest Trailers.
If you want something different, try Danger UXB. It's about a man who is forced to do on the job training as a bomb disposal officer in London during the Blitz. It gets too heavy into the soap opera aspects after a while, but each episode is at its heart about a bomb and how to get rid of it.
I worked for Hollywood video in 2007-2008. This was shortly before they went under and Blockbuster collapsed not long after. We were instructed to destroy all VHS tapes that couldn't be sold for a dollar. Customers begged us to let them just take them but we had managers watching to prevent this.
We couldn't let customers use the bathroom because they kept stealing disks from the DVD boxes in there. Management made a point of only assigning one employee to work on Friday nights. I stuck around in spite of massive turnover, but the whole work by yourself on Friday repeatedly is what finally finished me.
Customers were frequently snotty especially if they came in at Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you did not give them what they wanted instantly they would sneer and say, "I'm switching to Netflix. It's the future!" Some customers were great, especially the prison employees who came in to get stuff for the prisoners to watch, nothing rated R. Usually it was a quiet job to do where hours just passed, but when it got bad it got really bad.
I won't deny there was probably a time it was better, and maybe my area was worse than most, but it did not end well. The movie "Be Kind Rewind" speaks to me in ways that it probably should not.
Yasuke has been getting pushed for years. They already dumped him into the Samurai Warriors franchise. I'm hoping the push back grows and people realize that in most countries throughout history, you only saw foreigners at ports, trading posts, and during wars. And that's okay.
The first time I heard of Dev was him claiming to be a GamerGate expert on Side Scrollers. He insisted that while GamerGate was good it did contain a harassment campaign, sighting tranny Brianna Wu as his example. He was called out on this by other guests as spreading lies with no evidence and he shut up. Since then, he has been stalking the comments of that channel. Any time he speaks he comes across as disingenuous and a well poisoner. "I'm a centrist, but stay away from the right wing meanies, am I right guys!" That shit was old when I was in college during the 2004 election.
If they are exactly one year apart or less they can be referred to as Irish Twins. It's not a common term because babies aren't usually born that close together. It's mostly a conversation piece.
Not a movie, but an old TV show that's free on You Tube is The Swamp Fox. It's about the American Revolution and the Guerilla fighting in South Carolina. It stars Leslie Nielsen. I first saw bits of it in reruns in the late 8os. A fun Spring/Summer time show, and seems appropriate with Memorial Day coming up.
The Never Ending Story, previous was Flashman and the Tiger. The first half of Never Ending Story is the basis for the first movie, the second half is more or less the second movie. Flashman and the Tiger is probably the least of the Flashman books, but they are all solid historical fiction with notes concerning the real events they were based on. Harry Flashman is a man you would hate IRL, but is quite fun to read about.
It's the twentieth anniversary of Doom 3 this year. I think the original version and BFG Edition are on GOG if you have a preference.
They just rereleased the old C&C and Red Alert games on STEAM. So go get it!
Bloody Roar 2. You're welcome.
I remember the bizarre reaction of Disney to both The Lone Ranger and John Carter losing money. They celebrated and did the weird math to prove how much they lost on those movies. Now they screech when anyone else use that same mathematical formula to point out they are losing money on almost everything they produce.
Apparently a local pilot was driving the ship out of the port. I don't have a source but my wife was watching a broadcast where that was announced.
"So I drank the wrong pop, Kay? Get off my back!"
That's it faggots, back to the closet.
She could try being pleasant and growing a personality?

I did not say they were, I said largely. The point is that if one "non-consensual" act is enough to bury a famous part of Americana, in this case the celebration of the war with Japan ending early, then the large scale non-consensual act of wide spread drafts should make for the burying of all pro-US pictures from the war. I think we made the correct decision to fight Japan. I had a grandfather who volunteered overly enthusiastically for just that purpose. I am arguing against the erasure of our culture by revisionists who refuse to accept that their very changeable "Morale code" does not match what would be considered an acceptable act 80 years ago. In the case of the VJ Day kiss, it was only considered acceptable back then because it was a celebration of pent up release. "Oh My God the war's over!" "Ooof! Well alright you can have a kiss. It is a big day." No worries, we're on the same side of this.
The war was fought with draftees from every country involved including the United States. Many of the pre-war military were volunteers looking for work during the end of the depression. There were plenty of volunteers, but lots of draftees. The draft is non-consensual. If one act of non-consent, even if the girl in question didn't really mind, is enough to ban a picture then all are. The pre-war anti-war/peace movement was massive.
The war was largely fought with draftees, a non-consensual act. Also the Iwo Jima flag raising was ordered to be done twice. They had to go back non-consensually and get a larger flag to make the photographer happy. Can we ban that picture too?
The 1980s was fun during the 80s. In the 90s much of what happened culturally in the 80s was looked down on as dated and uncool. The 80s was a time of optimism in the west, and the 90s a time of absurd self-congratulatory optimism. "Things are great and will only get better." By the late 90s some radio stations were playing 80s music as part of nostalgia lineups.
As the millennium passed and the promise of a sweet future turned into the realization of a not so great culturally stagnating eternal now, people began using the internet to have at first ironic but later desperate for the past nostalgia trips. These focused on the 80s.
The nostalgia began to take on a desperate tone as the 80s nostalgia wave went on seemingly without end. Right now, we are seeing a bit of a backlash that is trying to paint the 90s and early 2000s as the time of eternal hope and fun. And of course the 80s must be uncool again for this to happen.
In my opinion this is little more than a continuation of the 80s nostalgia trip and a refusal to accept the continuing culturally stagnant now that we live in. A yearning for the past rather than a hope for or an effort to create a bright future.
TLDR The above may be bullshit but I find it hilarious that the "80s" Turtle show was mostly produced in the 90s and it's what everyone thinks of when they think of TMNT. Even the ones who obsess over the early 2000s show.
Nope. Back in the 90's, possibly earlier, there was a traffic cop in New York I think who got really really bored. So he started waving people through while dancing to a beat inside his head. Many speak of marching to the beat of their own drummer, he did it.
It's too far away to attend. I'd enjoy becoming a Master of White Supremacy.
