What a waste. This guy has zero presence. No charisma whatsoever. I’m riding with Drake 😁

So, you're telling me you can just wander around Istanbul tossing bombs and nobody even blinks? Might have to give that a shot since I'm heading there soon.
And how is it that nobody noticed those police cars look like they’re straight out of the 70s? Is it possible Americans actually think Turkey is that backwards? Has anyone here even been there?

Sam Smith3 said:So, I finally sat down and watched that movie last night... mostly just because of all the massive hype surrounding the Millennium Trilogy. Honestly, I probably should have read the books first instead of jumping straight to the film version.
Now, I have absolutely zero motivation to pick up the book. I expected so much more from this.

It was overly commercialized, predictable, and felt incredibly derivative.
Everything about it was dialed up way too high. You’ve got the lead actress playing someone on the fringes of society—who, let's be real, is clearly portrayed as some sort of victim of abuse—mixed with a heavy dose of religious subtext (because apparently, if it isn't in the Bible, you can't solve anything), and of course, the inevitable Nazi references (as if Americans haven't dealt with enough of that already). Then there's the whole Sodom and Gomorrah vibe—maybe those cold, dark winter nights in the States get a little too intense for people—and it all wraps up with a happy ending, which is just classic Hollywood commercialism; she ends up beautiful and wealthy at the end.
On top of all that, they throw in a bit of investigative journalism, some courtroom drama, a few offshore accounts, African cartels, some random tattoos, and an excessive amount of Apple products.

I can't imagine myself ever sitting through the sequels.

😵

Man, I'm just waiting for you to actually write something better and more interesting that isn't just a rehash of everything else.
Hopefully it drops soon.
You can't just trash everything that's actually good without coming up with something that hits just as hard, right? hmm ☕

Plus, the movie is based on a true story.

Man, I am not reading all that nonsense... If it's based on a true story, how can you claim it's not "original"? What were they supposed to make up? Like, maybe if she actually survived, you'd be happy? Give me a break.

What a complete turnaround 🙂

Man, I was seriously torn between just taking the win or going with the Griffin over at 21.5. It sat right at 21 for ages before finally moving... honestly, feel bad for anyone who bet the over on that one 🤦

-18. Honestly, sometimes trying to use logic is just a total waste of time.
It would’ve been easier if I just said, "Hey, Portland sucks on back-to-backs and they don't even have guys like Aldridge anymore, so bet on them losing"

I took them too, solo. I'm telling you, without Aldridge or Camby, they've got zero depth. Griffin and Jordan are gonna absolutely tear them apart. Right now, they're a total disaster.🙂

Charlotte is heading into Phoenix without Augustin, Henderson, and Maggette
Are you kidding me? 🙂

ugh, thanks

I'm thinking about putting something on the Lakers, but honestly, once I get sick of hearing about Fisher and Metta World Peace again... :/

Is anyone else watching the end of this Celtics game? I was losing my mind when they were up 90-89 and the momentum just died, then I check the live score and see Paul Pierce sinks a three to make it 93-89. I'm thinking, thank God, finally. So I close the app, go to check what minute we're in, and suddenly it's back to 90-89 because Paul Pierce jumps on defense and gives up a free throw to make it 91-89.

What happened to that three-pointer? Why was it waved off? It says the refs were checking the replay?
