Women be crazy.

Tried rewatching it a month ago. Doesn't hold up.

And yet the moral is still timeless: don't cheat on your wife, because the other woman might go all psycho and ruin the whole thing.

I think the moral holds up for this one, too.

Unfortunately it's just so unrealistic that women would hurt a rabbit. I freaking hate the rabbits who eat my flower bulbs (might as well call them extremely expensive rabbit food at this point) and yet I still don't want my dogs to hurt them. I definitely wouldn't want anyone to hurt a pet rabbit. It just doesn't track.

I thought the moral was to use a fake name and a burner phone if you're going to cheat? I must be thinking of a different movie.

Trees, ranked. 45. Linden

Very attractive tree with its typically long pyramidal shape - looks great in a long row, as you'll sometimes see in pictures (or paintings!) of agricultural landscapes in Europe. Slightly "dirty" tree with their droppings but nothing to get bent out of shape about, in part because the tree rarely gets bent out of shape or sends a random arm above your garage roof to clog the gutter with those droppings.

Oh, that's a way better lesson. Because then men don't have to change.

Never seen it.

Posted: **Thu Apr 21, 2022 5:54 pm**

There is no thrilling or exciting "action" in the Titanic. Plus you already know it sinks! They're just dying in ice water for a while.

Taxi Driver, directed by Martin Scorsese, 1976

Starting to wonder if the AFI is some type of CIA front that actually doesn't know anything about film, and the members have never watched any, but AFI gives an excuse to say they have a job permitting them to travel overseas often.

Posted: **Fri Apr 22, 2022 9:05 am**

Once again- everything that Phoebe said.

Posted: **Fri Apr 22, 2022 9:26 am**

I concur.

Posted: **Fri Apr 22, 2022 10:37 am**

Well now I double agree with both Phoebe and Eli
