Highly recommend not watching the trailer! It gives away so many of the iconic surprises of the book. Seriously just read the book or go in blind to this show/movie. WTF is wrong with trailers showing us everything now.

I agree with the comments here. It’s not very good but they go so far out of their way to laugh at themselves and the studio for making the film that it becomes charming. There are a lot of 80s / 90s sequel movies that make weird choices instead of rehasing and I’d much rather see something I’m not expecting. They know full well that a direct sequel would never please the fans so they basically destroy Matrix lore. I don’t think Neo fires a gun which I found incredible as statement on the previous movies. So yah not good in the traditional sense but it’s quite original in its post modern take on internet fandom, studio forcing sequels, lack of originality, commenting on not giving the audience what the think they want, etc.
Damn. Sorry to hear that.
Cool. I actually clicked on it because I thought this was talking about the great 2014 film Leviathan https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_(2014_film). Looking forward to other fan/pitch films.
Unfortunately until gaming companies see their base users move to Linux I doubt any changes will happen. But this could be a very good step in that direction if YouTubers start promoting Linux is the way to go for games and web browsers. Some people don’t use anything else.
With how big and cheap they are and a lot more mounted to the wall I’d be curious how many tvs get left because it’s easy to just grab laptops, game systems, etc. It still takes two people to carry those huge thin TVs and they don’t really fit in a backpack.
I’d like to know as well. Amazon pays artists and book author pennies. Books are easier to find or order local but there seems to be a complete Monopoly on audiobooks by Audible (aka Amazon)
I was a manager and was hands on training “Gary” day one. Gary continued to get audible dings and read text messages and type while I was talking directly to him. After the 2-3 time I asked if everything was alright and Gary needed to step out to handle something. He said something like, “oh no it’s just a text chain…”. I asked them stop texting but they sort of tried to hide the fact that they continued as I tried to get their attention and they just kept texting. After some more time I stopped after a simple demonstration and asked if they could do what I just did. Gary didn’t do the simple task correctly. I excused myself and walked to office I said to the other people managers /hiring staff, “I don’t think this is going to work out with Gary. It’s day one and he refuses to pay attention.” They expressed that another good coworker and friend had recommended him for the job and I just get through some stuff. Ok maybe Gary was having a bad day.
Later that week I learned Gary didn’t have a car even though transportation was required for the position because you might be working different locations all over town and Gary thought that his friend would be nice and just drive him to whatever job he needed to go to and then drive to their own job somewhere else. It lasted a few days and Gary didn’t arrive at locations we need him at. When we called he said, “I don’t have a ride I can’t work.” I asked if there way to figure out the transportation and he said it would be alright. I think he took a cab a few times but the locations are 20-30 mins away. After multiple no shows or very late arrivals we had to let Gary go.
Now I spoke with Gary several times. I don’t think this was some sort of condition were he didn’t understand the job and what he needed to do. I believe that Gary really thought we were all just living in his world or maybe he had to get out and prove he got a job. After he was gone I asked Gary’s friend, “So what happened?”. She confirmed that he never had a car or equipment needed. I asked if he got another job. She said, “Oh I don’t know, I don’t like Gary very much”.
Anything specific advice you would give to others to prevent corruption? Or keep drives healthy?
I’m going to say because it’s short, stupid catchy. Sometimes your brain goes to random places and then logic sets in. Ignoring typical reason is what makes absurdist comedy work. We obviously have a character playing it straight trying to figure it out getting more and more upset by the illogical which makes the bit work. The music is silly and not eerie at all and then getting scared freeze frame when they continue to point out the character is not scary is the kicker and sort of makes it worth it. This was probably just a random skit they threw in last minute and thought, just have fun. A lot of hit songs are simple, obvious, stupid and catchy. Rick James thought Superfreak was a throw away song too dumb to be on the album and it’s his most recognized song.
