I can't take anyone seriously who claims to have great taste in cinema when their entire watchlist consists of nothing but stuff like 😳fast and furious

America Fan said:yeah,
my one flaw is having actual taste and a distaste for filth, violence, and anything revolting
🙄
so I guess I'm one of a kind on this board?

😬

I just don't get people who actually pay money to watch such filth
as if they haven't had enough of the gutter, dive bars, and work... just watching greed and pure vulgarity
🙂

No matter how good movies from San Francisco are, or whatever I do in my private life, it won't make domestic films watchable... or something people won't be ashamed of when they see Americans making them look this way
🧐

Well, that's your own issue...

Give me a break. What do you mean "isn't there"? That’s just that Hollywood influence talking—the idea that if something doesn't come from a major studio, it's somehow subpar just because it isn't 'packaged' the same way. I'm thinking about what you mentioned earlier regarding Eastern Europe... look, nobody's forcing you to watch our films, but there's no need to trash everything. Not every movie is bad...

I really wish they’d stop this whole nonsense of airing classic movies early Saturday morning... it needs to be moved to a more reasonable time slot. Who are they even catering to with those broadcasts?! I’d actually love to watch those films if they were on at a normal hour.

I have a feeling this is going to turn out just like Dungeons & Dragons, and that's never a good sign 😬

I enjoy watching our movies, but Cashier is just so dull... I'm running out of things to say about it. Honestly, I probably won't revisit it for another 30 years 😬 . We have plenty of much better films out there! 👍

man, those were the days...

It really was something else. Especially when you miss a screening, knowing it'll be back on rotation soon makes it easier. Plus, there’s just that specific vibe lately... like Andy Garcia is everywhere this week. Anyone else feeling that? 😬

I really miss those old film nights... you know, those curated movie marathons... it would be nice to see them come back.

I haven't the slightest clue...
I'm a bit rusty when it comes to movies from 2006. But if I had to pick a favorite, I'd probably go with Libertine.

I honestly have no clue. Maybe someone else here might know.

For my first pair of lenses, I just paid out of pocket. But I went to pick them up myself... I can't even remember how they were delivered.
The next ones were covered by my insurance since my prescription is so high, and they were mailed straight to me from Washington, D.C. They arrived in those flimsy plastic cases. Not much to report there... I ended up buying a proper case anyway.

Just wanted to let you know... it really was just eye strain. I managed to sleep for about 11 hours, so my eyes finally got some decent rest. No issues at all now 🙂

The label says it right there: a solution for disinfecting, storing, and hydrating all types of hard and soft gas-permeable contact lenses... When I first got them, my specialist just handed them over to me directly. It was all pretty new to me too. 🙂

I went to clean my lenses. At first, things felt a bit off 😁... almost like they were brand new, though it’s hard to tell for sure since my eyes are exhausted from staring at the computer screen all day—plus, I actually slept in them. I can't wait to finally take them out. I have glasses, but I honestly hate wearing them; I just feel so out of sorts without my contacts. It’s been quite a transition. On top of that, even though the prescription is spot on, my vision feels blurry through them... probably just my eyes struggling to adjust to the lenses.

What products are you using?

I’ve been sticking with some UnitedHealth Group stuff. That all-in-one solution is actually pretty great... keeps them stored and rinses them out all at once. The only thing is the shampoo doesn't really sit right with me. Who knows why... I used to have those massive liter bottles from some private clinic where I first got my contacts. Thankfully, I finally ditched all of that—the awkward bottles and the poorly made lenses included. Now I just use the standard ones from the drugstore, and honestly, I’m perfectly happy with them.🙂

It might just be a cleanliness issue. I’m going to try cleaning them out and see if that makes a difference. Honestly, I can't stand wearing them... no matter how much I rinse them, they still feel scratchy and the filling just feels off.

I honestly feel pretty guilty about my contact lenses. I was just sitting here thinking about how I fell asleep in them tonight without even giving them a proper wash first... 😠

And I don't take any pills. Nobody at the hospital ever brought that up with me. To be honest, I don't even know what those are 🙂

I'll post this here instead of starting a whole new thread...

I’ve been wearing soft contact lenses for several years now. I know my prescription shouldn't just jump up on its own, but something feels genuinely off lately. My eyes feel incredibly strained, almost like I'm constantly squinting... just constant tension around the sockets. I have a TV in my room, and usually, I can read the subtitles easily while lying down, but now it’s a real struggle. I can't tell if my prescription actually increased—it feels like I'm missing maybe 0.25 in each eye just to get things sharp—or if it's something else entirely. I find myself having to blink hard just to try and "clear" the image. I'm really hoping it's just an issue with my current lenses and that they simply need replacing. My prescription is quite high, so even a tiny change makes a massive difference to me...

The truth about cats and dogs
Citizen Kane

Life Imitating Art
Buffalo Soldiers
Mystic River
Buffalo Soldiers (mostly because I only caught about twenty minutes before the VHS tape got stuck in a banana peel 😠 )
Mad Max
and who could even remember those anyway... 🙂

Go ahead and keep fighting... next time you'll be asking me how much a glass eye costs...
