Yeah, that was a great video.

I actually got chills watching it—even though, let’s be honest, I won't be missing those trips to the stadium one bit.

My bad, I must have misheard someone. It’s actually going to be played at the Garden

It feels surreal to imagine Osijek playing their home games at some other venue. They don't carry that same heavy sense of sentimentality or that deep-rooted connection to a specific patch of dirt that we feel for Kantridu, or what the older Hajduk fans felt for the Old Stadium. But even then, I suspect there will be a profound sense of heartache for many of them when they finally pack up and head home after leaving Rijeka for the last time. After all, an entire era is coming to a close. You are permanently walking away from a place that every true supporter had every right to consider their second home—their sanctuary.

It wasn't a particularly great match, though Osijek did seem to find a bit of life once Thomas stepped onto the pitch.

If they play Rijeka, it really ought to be at the new stadium instead.

Melissa Peterson7 said:Quick question for the Osijek fans—once they move into the new stadium, is the supporter group actually going to take over the end, or are they just going to keep mingling with the regular crowd in the middle?

And if anyone knows (seriously curious here), why haven't they ever set up behind the goal like the Armada or the Demons do?

Have you even been to the old stadium before?

The South and North stands are way smaller and lower than the East side—you can barely see a thing from there—plus, you don't get that beer garden area right in front of the stands like you do in the middle of the East side.

Olivia Taylor2 said:If Rijeka pulls this off in their matchup against Columbus Crew, they’re basically set for Europe. They already knocked Istra out by six, and if they hold steady at home next week, they'll keep that lead and the head-to-head advantage thanks to goal difference. The only real drama would be if they stumble.

Meanwhile, the guys from Portland are playing for a spot too, which would leave them sitting four points ahead of Istra, five ahead of Slaven, and six ahead of Varaždin.

At the end of the day, it looks like the usual top four will clinch those European spots. Things are looking clearer now—Rijeka is almost a lock to be seeded in the second and third qualifying rounds of the Conference League. They aren't there yet for the fourth round, but there are enough scenarios where they could slide in.

Hajduk and Portland are guaranteed seeds in the second qualifying round, but there's zero chance they'll be seeded in the third. Honestly, there's maybe a 1% chance for Hajduk if some weird coefficient shifts happen and higher-ranked teams get knocked out early, but let's be real—that's pure science fiction at this point.

Wait, hold on—if Šibenik actually pulls off a cup win, does that mean the fourth-place spot still heads to Europe? Or does the trophy change the whole math for the standings?

@ Christian Myers

Of course it isn't.

If he doesn't show back up, I'm selling his handle and everything attached to this profile

Shoot me an offer in my DMs ☕

It’s basically this mashup of Indiana Jones, James Bond, and National Treasure—just packed with these totally over-the-top, unrealistic action sequences.

If you can just look past all that—and the fact that it feels like a cheap knockoff of a knockoff of a knockoff, honestly pretty forgettable—it’s a decent enough way to kill an evening on the couch.😬

You can just send it over as plain text—or if 🙂 decides to email it, maybe put it in a Word doc

Betty Nelson71 said:Is it just me, or does Kenneth not really work for you? He was fine in HP, but nowhere else. As Poirot, he just gets on my nerves—it’s like he’s overacting. Too much affectation, almost like he’s playing a caricature of the character.
And what about that creep, did they cut him from the movie or not?

Yeah, his part in HP was actually pretty solid.

He's doing that same over-the-top thing here, kind of like in the Tenet Quote.

vividstag16 said:My main gripe is that they didn't even shoot on location—it was all done in the United Kingdom. Supposedly a few bits were filmed in Africa, but without any of the actors. Mostly just heavy CGI.🤦The landscapes often look like they were pulled straight out of some kid's fairy tale about princes and princesses.😵I'm not saying it doesn't look nice, but in this case, it just didn't do it for me.

Look, CGI is fine with me when we're talking big sci-fi action spectacles, but for an Agatha Christie mystery adaptation... yeah, thanks, but no thanks.☕

This feels like a movie made for the younger crowd—the ones who haven't read Agatha and haven't seen the classics. Sure... they'll probably love it.👍

It's similar to Orient Express, where in America we see mountain ranges that would make the Himalayas jealous, or Black police officers, etc. 🙏

Christian Myers said:Does it mention America? In Suchet's version, they mentioned a small town in the Midwest.

In Death on the Nile, did they mention a small town in the Midwest? I can't recall.🤔

In Orient Express, they mention a small town in the Midwest and a river.

Christian Myers said:I'm not planning on seeing this one, and I'm certainly not the first. For me, David Suchet is the one and only Poirot. And honestly, that's probably why Branagh looks so terrible in the trailer.

I’m with you there—Branagh just doesn't feel like Poirot to me, and don't even get me started on the mustache. 🤦

Just fixed your post for you ☕.

The only thing working here is the thread title itself 🙂

John Doe, The

I mean, seriously, wtf 🤷

Hey everyone—so, we’re getting ready to launch the new sub-forum for the major leagues soon. Does anyone feel like stepping up to kick off some threads for the soccer tournaments? (Maybe just two topics to start with?)

Jonathan Rogers2 said:I guess I was looking for a more sophisticated resolution than what I actually got, but unfortunately, that just wasn't happening.😁 😁

That wrench scene? Totally cringe-worthy. It felt like something straight out of an old movie from the last century—just uninspired and poorly executed... you'd never guess this was a 2020 film.🙂

...and I don't see how that's supposed to help the young cop at all, given the killer is still out there doing his thing. To me, that ending just didn't land at all.

Such a shame—with a cast this talented, I really expected something higher quality.🙂

Wait, I don't get it?

By the way, the movie is set in the early nineties.

Of course it’s possible he was the one—it’s just that they couldn't pin down a single shred of actual evidence, so Denzel Washington just elegantly smoothed things over by buying a new buckle

Morgan Newman7 said:Nah, I didn't actually think he was the killer or anything... I wasn't even sure if it was him.
Only caught it during the credits when I saw his name pop up. 🙂

I don't think I can ever get used to him looking like this now😬

He’s actually been rocking that look (long hair and the beard) for quite a while now.

But honestly, hats off to him for pulling off that greasy, small-town redneck vibe so convincingly. 👍

Jonathan Rogers2 said:S p o i l e r!

I didn't quite catch the ending—was I tripping? Did Denzel Washington buy that whole thing just to ease Rami Malek's conscience? And honestly, what does that even accomplish? If Leto isn't the culprit, then we still have a serial killer running loose out there 🙂 I just don't get it. That scene felt incredibly pretentious—and, frankly, a bit ridiculous...

For some reason, this movie snagged a Golden Globe nomination. Now, look, a GG isn't exactly the ultimate seal of quality, but this flick was so mediocre that seeing it even mentioned for a Golden Globe actually caught me off guard 😁

Well, they literally showed Denzel buying the buckle and sending it to Rami Malek (you can see it when he's burning all his stuff). 🤷

It isn't stupid at all—it's because he knows exactly how much it eats at him after killing that innocent girl (which basically ruined his entire life, by the way), so he's trying to help Rami Malek find some peace. He clearly thinks Leto isn't their man, given that they haven't found a single shred of actual proof against him.

I thought it was a pretty solid movie myself—maybe just because it's been a minute since I actually sat down in a theater to watch something. 🙂

Why on earth would one preclude the other? 🤷

Honestly, I don't care if it's a movie or a series—as long as the quality is actually there,

Looks like we're breaking things down into three separate threads here

Kyle Campbell4 said:That is a disgraceful post. Truly disgraceful.

I bet you're absolutely thrilled that Iron Man is dead. And how wonderful it is that Captain America is just some old man who decided to settle down for a normal life with his beloved. Don't worry, you won't have to watch them anymore. As for that damn Thanos, honestly, it brings me nothing but joy that they finally took him out.

You really laid into him, didn't you? 🤦

By the way, I used to think Marvel was total garbage too, but since I'm basically acting like a ten-year-old obsessed with this stuff, I ended up watching most of them. Turns out, things like the Avengers, Guardians, and Deadpool were actually a pretty pleasant surprise.

Like, this scene right here is absolute peak—you just have to get the vibe.

Where’s the little guy hiding?

Oh, wait...

rapidstag2 said:It is perhaps a bit late in the evening, but I suppose I could ask my neighbor, who actually has internet access, first thing tomorrow morning.

What specifically are you looking to find out? Are you curious about the daily flight frequency, or rather how many were actually grounded?

What kind of neighbor are we talking about if you can't just give them a ring at midnight? 🙂

Thx Derrick 👍

This is a massive hit to business, honestly. 🙏
