The " theater experience " is currently so poor, you could give me the tickets for FREE and I still won't go to the theater to see the movie.
Have you considered for a moment the possibility that the world doesn't revolve around you?
It's a crazy thought, I know, but there is a slight possibility that movie theatres will continue being profitable even if you personally dislike going. Even more astoundingly, it appears that the reason why MoviePass is doing so poorly is that a bunch of people actually WANT to go, and the measly $9.99 monthly fee isn't enough to cover the cost of so many tickets.
I mean I'm certain that all of the theatre chains are absolutely heartbroken over losing you as a customer, but they do somehow seem to be muddling through without you...
He's certainly not alone. I have zero intention to go see any recent film in the cinema, and by recent im talking years. If they started putting out decent films again that might change but that's not really got anything to do with the cinema itself. It can be an experience sure, but it needs to be a really good film and not just filled with flashy sfx which basically everything is these days. Once you seen one disposable cg army clash with another you've seen them all.
The Reality Distortion Field being a phrase made up 36 years ago by the original Macintosh team leader about a man who has been dead for nearly 7 years.
Are we going to keep doing this, or can I take your lunch money now.
Yes we are because it's still a thing and no, you can fuck off.
Thanks for insulting my appearance, sight unseen. I don't know why I bother to bathe every day and wear clean clothes. Thanks for insulting my skills too. I don't know why I bother to continue work on unpaid personal coding projects to keep my skills up.
I'm always irrationally optimistic during interviews. It's irrational to assume any interview will be different from every other interview. After all, every employed person is SHIT LIKE YOU, and SHIT LIKE YOU is never hiring.
The absolute worst part of being an open source coder is I'm not compensated when undeserving SHIT LIKE YOU take my hard work and use it for your own benefit.
Have you considered that I'm bitter because of SHIT LIKE YOU who are constantly lying about the existence of jobs that don't exist?
Now how about you go fuck yourself and die in a fire?
If you come across in interviews even half as bad as you do here it's no wonder no one would hire you. If your skills are so shit hot work for yourself. Flood the appstore with useless crap and rake it in that way.
I would argue the pandering was not the casting itself but acknowledging and making such a big deal out it. I'm all for strong characters but unless it's actually relevant to the story somehow the gender of the character really doesn't matter but when they're going look we have a woman aren't we progressive it just highlights how unequal things really are instead of trying to actually make progress.
Frustrating? Take this example from today. Vote Leave found guilty of breaking 4 laws during their campaign, not accused of, this is the verdict and the very top thing is vote leave's guy offering up excuses and complaints about the process which are also intermingled with the article itself.
Speak for yourself, monkey boy. I go to India and Japan a couple times a year. I could definitely use flights that get me there fast enough that my body clock can be more or less in sync with local time.
Doesn't matter how long it takes to get there, that place will still be the same amount of hours before or behind only it will be even worse because you'll just be even more out of whack.
Maybe it used to be when it at least pretended to be impartial, these days it's just another thinly veiled tory mouthpiece. Look at the blatant plants on QT, the massive discrepancy between tory coverage and coverage of any other party. Just look at how many ex tory ministers get parachuted into top level bbc jobs. Channel 4 seems to becoming the new gold standard as worrisome as that is. I would be more than happy for bbc to go subscription or ad supported but you can tell just how beneficial it is to the tories as that is the one thing they won't consider for privatisation anytime it comes up.
British have a gun held to their heads and are forced to pay BBC subscriptions.
Well, you're supposed to pay it and they talk big about fines but it's fairly easy to avoid. Especially as cuts mean less people out checking. Fuck the BBC though, their content is daytime filler crap and the occasional dead horse they won't stop flogging and they want me to pay for it just because I technically have the ability to receive it. No, fuck off.
I know it's difficult for left-wingers like yourself who have never even tried to run a sustainable, nevermind a profitable, business to understand this, but the lack of competition within the telecom industry is solely due to the extensive regulation that effectively makes it impossible for new entrants to participate in the market. Before you start with the 'natural monopoly' nonsense regarding infrastructure, you should realize that the only monopoly involved and causing problems is that of the government and its oppressive regulation. Technological difficulties can be overcome, even by relatively small players. Regulatory difficulties, on the other hand, are far worse to deal with, and in the telecom sector are nearly impossible to overcome except by the very largest players, and even they often experience extreme hardship. We see the problems we have today because left-wing regulatory schemes have paralyzed the market, resulting in the formation of an oligopolistic environment where the consumer ultimately suffers.
Completely and utterly wrong. Why don't you have a look at some other markets. How is it you think that having only one company is competition? I know you'll shit yourself but why don't you look at the models in european countries where infrastructure is largely separated from the ISP and there are actually lots of ISPs in competition with each other which does result in lower prices, uncapped lines and half decent customer service.
I had a co-worker who posted online in a psychology forum using his real name. Some of those posts were used against him in family court, and he was denied custody of his children.
I have a solution for that: live in a country with less backwards values.

Well, only the party bringing the charges can drop them and I doubt you'd find too many defendants that would contest it.
When people are still trying to figure out what your decades old movie was about.. it might some be bad writing/directing.
People are still trying to figure out the bible so there you go.
First again, like our incredible President Trump. See you again in two years, sir.
About as factually accurate as most of what Trump says.
My god, it's full of spam!
AT&T charges US$3/minute for using voice outside of the country.
Is that a lot? That sounds like a lot.
Here's what they're not getting:

Sorry. Average people have annIQ of 90-100.
This is basically a high functioning retard.
Donâ(TM)t expect much.
Wait, doesn't an average person have an iq of 100. I thought that was the point.

So brave.

If you're not pirating these movies, how do you know they're so bad? Did you pay to see them?
Because basically the whole world is shouting these are bad films and the previous two gave form.

And that's just one small thing among many. Don't even get me started on Kuenssberg.
And the S stands for sarcasm, which like their rockets seems to have gone straight over your head.

How it became a cult hit in the UK, I will never understand.
Because we love how shit some things are.
Woman can be doctors and men can be nurses. They're not gender specific jobs.
But you're right, how dare a TV show adjust its stories to align with their target demographic!
This doctor isn't that kind of doctor, or any kind really as far as I can tell but there is a big difference between adjustment and pandering.
