Soccer gets better ratings than hockey in this country and is closing in on baseball.

Demographics are shifting. Only 57% of the country is white in 2026. Baseball has fallen out of favor with the newer generations of American citizens.

The Nolan fanboys will try to convince you that this casting was brilliant.

I am what this board would consider a Nolan fanboy and I have been hypercritical of Nolan's casting decisions of this film from the beginning.

His name....was Seth Rich.

It would be hilarious if it beat out Super Girl. Not sure they have it on enough screens though.

Forrest wreaked havoc using these tactics, but he was largely alone in this thought process while the rest of the CS leadership pursued Lee's concepts. Had it been inverse, the cost of battle in Confederate states may have led to a negotiated release. It took Lincoln years to find military leadership who were aligned in his desire for total war. Hell, Sherman was effective because he lacked "decorum," just like Forrest did.

Forrest was a raiding legend who wrecked Union supplies, but he wasn't alone: raids by Mosby, Morgan, and others plus the Partisan Ranger Act were already part of the Confederate playbook. More emphasis on guerrilla tactics wouldn’t have won (or negotiated) independence. The South’s core problems were massive disadvantages in manpower/industry, the need to hold territory, and Union resolve to escalate total war. Guerrilla fighting cedes the heartland, invites harsher retaliation, and accelerates collapse. It also prolongs suffering without delivering victory. Lee was right to reject it. Tactical wins do not equal strategic solution.

This was inevitable. I don't know why people are so up in arms about this. You buy a disc from the store, you put it into your PS5, and the game has to install updates from the internet before you can play a single minute of it. That's where we stand in 2026.

I must admit...I'm consoled out. I made the switch to PC gaming this year because I saw where shite was going.

There needs to be a Final Solution of the Canadian Geese question. I hate those little shits and want nothing more than to see them all euthanized.

I'm sorry...but WTF? Look...I love me The Fugitive and think it's a very entertaining film with solid performances from the entire cast. However, can anyone say with a straight face that Tommy Lee Jones deserved the Oscar over Ralph Fiennes that year? His performance as Amon Goeth in Schindler's List is absolutely iconic. The man disappears in the role and shows us just how evil man can become given the right set of circumstances.

While Tommy Lee Jones is very entertaining as Gerard, his performance just isn't on the same level. Obviously people will counter with the likes of Crash, Shakespeare in Love, or even How Green Was My Valley...but I think Tommy Lee Jones beating out Fiennes is a far more egregious error.
