Nope. Gorransson.

Once you turn down Nolan for a project or take another one instead, he doesn't really pivot back to you and stays loyal to your replacement.

See Wally Phister. See Zimmer. He'll probably never work with him again.

re: Where does Jim Harbaugh's UM staff rank among all time scumbag programs?

Fun fact. Walt Coleman said the two worst players he ever interacted with as a referee were Phillip Rivers and Jim Harbaugh. He said they complained and whined about literally every call.

Take that how you will.

Mike Brown will never trqde Joe Burrow. You people are crazy if you think. Otherwise.

He signed the extention. He will be on the Bengals til he retires or he's 35+.

That's it. He knew who he was getting drafted to and he chose to remain with them for $250M.

Live with the decision.

Michael’s in Homer

Fun little place. The old school downtown square vibe is very unique. Too bad north LA has some of the best non-chain outdoor shops in the country, but residents of Texas, Ark, and Miss can't buy pistols, sporting rifles, or suppressors, w/o having to ship them to a local FFL.

They probably lose a ton of business because of that.

Just saw the Haynesville score. Damn, imagine outgaining a team by almost 300 Yds... And losing a state title.

HS football at its finest I guess.

I'd probably take the job if it were 10 yrs ago just for the hell of it, but alas, life happens.

Good luck on the project. Ijist being in the art dept for a week would be a great time.

Looks like a cgi shite fest and they're essentially trying to make the video game version of Barbie.

In saying that, I will see it opening weekend...and love the hell out of it.

Broadcast stations pay shite.

And it shorten even worse. Nobody stays in that industry anymore unless they've already been in it 20-30+ yrs and actually make decent $. Anyone hired by a local station over the last 15byrs probably hasn't had a raise in a decade and make peanuts, and now work 3 ppls jobs.

The only other real alternative to make decent pay is corporate marketing world if you have high level directing/editing/shooting skills. It's a soulless, hollow hack world, but it's much slower paced than film/tv/news business, but also comes with so many idiots and Office Space types. Far, far from the film business "circus."

There's A place in Homer that is pretty good. Local shop. Lots of clothing, too, and decent prices for an independent.

re: Tom Cruise height is 5’7

Posted by Jack Ruby on 12/10/25 at 9:23 am to Kafka

How many 5'3"-5'6" adult grown men do y'all actually know?

Think about it and the number is probably extremely low. Yet Hollywood and car racing are full of them.

Most Hollywood stars have been shorter as over time because they are easier to frame with a female co-star.

It's not always like that but numerous Hollywood stars throughout the history of the business have been short.

An yes, they always shoot Cruise to make him look bigger. He also always wears hiking boots and lifts in public, just like Mark Wahlberg and RDJ. All of whom are like 5'6" - 5'7"

Everyone knew whoever got Lendeborg was going to have a monster team, but when you pair him with Morez Johnson in the front court it's not even fair. I think Yaxel cost like $6M or something.
