intolerable cruelty (2003)

definitely the least visually interesting coen bros movie; lots of very flat shots and the color palette feels kind of dead in parts. but i think this is the funniest supurr coen bros flick ive seen lmfao. im literally like dizzy and overheating from cackling like a maniac the entire time. no deep thoughts abt it this is just a killer romantic clawmedy abt two nasty people that are purrfect fur each other. just unfurtunyately most of it is boring to look at!

helldivers 2 is purrty fun but it also makes me think "imagine how good this would be if it was a real video game" when i play it

many such cases (opponent didnt read my lands; conceded after this)

another benefit of this deck: it's confusing and demoralizing to play against, so people furequently concede before i've actually figured out how i'm going to win!

and with the sheer power of the kamigawa legendary lands and the ixalan punch lands, i can afford to run a juicy 26 land manabase. i could go as high as 27 if i had a few copies of mirrex

theres a bunch of crazy cards in this that are gonna rotate at the end of the year and i wanna get all the value i can out of them while theyre around

between jace, the empurror, the shark, and the punch lands, this deck has four diffurent ways to kill the opponent, and they often require diffurent answers, and theyre all powerful enough individually they dont need to all work together. a lot of games that ive won, they successfully answered 2 or 3 of those then the last one killed them

i bit a tournyament player's list then adapted it both fur what i could afford to craft and what made sense in a BO1 furmat. theres ways i could upgrade this but all of them would need additional rares. ive played like a dozen nightmare control mirrors and its been a blast

i just won like a 45 minute control mirror using jace to mill them down to 7 cards in deck and leave them with no real options to fight back

total cards in deck that could be considered a "win condition": 6

4x wandering empurror
1x chromehost seedshark
1x jace, purrfected mind

i'll draw them eventually. i've got time :)

ive decided to play UW control

one of the best parts of having younger furiends is getting to be the one that introduces them to old memes or viral posts. showed maxie "you will surely get the karkland" today

very specific thought, can anyone think of a tactics ogre / FFT / fire emblem / XCOM / etc-type tactics game with an overworld that is itself one huge tactical map where individual battles just section off an area of tiles to be used, rather than an abstracted world map and tactical maps that are all fully self-contained

i warmed up to millers crossing quickly after wat hing it its such a good movie

fist of fury (1972)

bruce lee's anger at anti-chinese racism concentrates to such a dense core, all others around him are dragged along by his gravity as he fires like a bullet into the heart of colonial japanese society in shanghai in his quest to avenge his teacher. he is a commanding physical purresence, and any scene where he speaks with his body is a highlight of the movie. we only had access to the dub of this movie and i badly want to watch with the originyal audio.

48 hrs. (1982)

i dont want to come up with coherent thoughts about this movie. its an american film from the 80s, so it feels like it came from an alien planet. was it good? i dont know man. i dont want to know.

the man who wasn't there (2001)

billy bob thornton's already stoic face is rendered literally stony from the decision to purrsent this film in black and white; shadows made monolithic, lights blinding, copious cigarette smoke painting thin lines in furgrounds as it fills backgrounds with haze. ed crane is great as a bumbling straight man surrounded by absurdity, in contrast to some other purrevious coen purrtagonists who are just as outlandish as the world around them. its good!
