Watched it today... I'm feeling pretty indifferent about the whole thing. It wasn't exactly a stroke of genius, but it certainly wasn't terrible either. I'd say it leans more toward being good than bad. 😁
I feel like I might actually live a few years longer now... 😁
I caught the last few minutes of the first half, but it was honestly too painful to sit through, so I switched over to the news instead. Every single time I glanced back at the screen, those Spaniards had scored. It felt like my mere presence was bringing them luck, so I decided I wouldn't watch another second!
And then, when I finally went back to check the score—nearly died!
It doesn't matter; I've already watched the replay and my own recording 😉
I actually mentioned in another thread how much I can't stand the Spanish 😠 — if only they could just lose (for my sake, 😁 )
Of course, once that happens, our ambitions will skyrocket and we'll all be demanding gold 😁 , but honestly, looking past those first two games, the guys have shown what they're truly made of. They fought hard and beat the best out there. Regardless of how things shake out from here, they have my absolute 🙏 !
I had to drop by just to see what all the fuss was about... this is completely nonsensical. This was clearly an opportunity to pick up where a discussion left off elsewhere... Hello? The thread is titled "Amelie," yet the last actual post regarding that movie is buried at the top of page one!
Call this unresolved and let’s move on!
Let's be clear here: if I thought a movie stunk, I would have the guts to say it's 🙂, and I'd defend my position until the bitter end. But there's a way to do that: "I think it's stupid because the pacing is off, the direction is poor, the acting is subpar, or the script is weak..." etc. You don't do it by shouting: "It's just immature nonsense involving minors, Romani people, and gay characters—what do you kids even know about life!!?"
Now you've gone and reminded me that I urgently need to watch it myself! 😁
