This one scene is better than like 90% of this entire trilogy lets be honest

This chart is a lie.





Age yourself by naming an NFL running back you grew up watching. I'll start, Priest Holmes.



Rob Reiner on how 'The Princess Bride' (1987) got a cult following after it didn't do as well as expected in the theatres: "We struggled to get the financing together but we finally got sixteen million bucks together and we went to England and made the picture. Oddly enough, the greatest appeal that it ever had in all the early screenings was for the teenagers. But, for whatever reason, we could never get one teenager to come to the movie theater when it came out. Maybe the title was too soft and sounded like some kind of soft, girly fairy tale. But when we prescreened it, the biggest response was from teenagers. It’s out on videotape, of course, and people have caught onto it because of that. But it’s like I’ve always said, you never meet anybody who voted for Richard Nixon and you can’t meet anybody who doesn’t think 'This is Spinal Tap' (1984) is great, even though we got crucified by the critics when it came out. But, somebody voted for Nixon. He got elected. And somebody didn’t come to the theater because we didn’t make money on Spinal Tap. It’s the same case with 'The Princess Bride' (1987). There’s a cult following and as the years go by people just pick up on it. It’s a film you can watch with your kid and not be bored. If you went by yourself and didn’t bring your kid, you’d still have a great time." ('The Directors Take two', Robert J. Emery, 2002)

This is so tragic, so unnecessary, these poor guardsmen should never have been deployed. I live in DC and watched as they had virtually nothing to do but pick up trash. It was for political show and at what a cost.

Trading Luka Doncic may just be the worst decision not just in the history of sports, but human existence…
