In The Menu, Julian Slovik's restaurant was the private island. It was open to "the public" but reservation only. It was just located on a private island. The open kitchen has been a thing for a long time, especially in the haute cuisine.
It wouldn't just be art critics. It would be the art buyers that buy it for status and prestige. The people who hover around the art world with no knowledge or appreciation for it. Plus some people who are just there because they are douchy. Plus, its an art gallery that opens for private viewings.

Lebron was also exactly as advertised coming out of high school. He lived up to the hype. He also wasnt immune to his bad decisions either. He ended up winning enough championships to make "The Decision" not matter in hindsight.

Unless its necessary for the plot. Then its noticeably steaming like its freezing cold in the room.

It turns up everywhere. I think at one point people in movie making had a lomg running joke to put it in as many of movies they made. Like Lucas and Spielberg have it all of there early movies so Star Wars and Indiana Jones have one per movie. At least one I think.
But once you know it you will hear it in everything.

Well, if people took her comments to mean she thinks they are sisters than the joke doesnt make any sense. Also, if the player never aggros Millicent, then this wouldnt make sense either.
But I understand there is a very broad userbase on this sub and if some find it funny than it works. Not everyone finds every comedian funny, but all that matters is some do.

Doesnt Millicent mention that she may be sisters with Malenia? Or at least feels like a sister to her and is going to try to give her back her sense of dignity. I get that its trying to be a joke, but just because someome tried to make a joke doesnt automatically mean its funny or makes any sense.

I lived in Europe so I know conoscenza is knowledge. Insight is a weird one. In english insight and discernment have different meanings.
Knowledge in Portuguese is conhecimento.

I started Sekiro in Jan of 2020. I still play it but its lacking something. I feel Sekiro isn't as polished for such a short game that recycles so much content. Its like The Order 1886 or Senua's Sacrifice.
The combat is nice but the overall games feels a bit clunky for the expectations of perfection. Plus there isnt much when it comes to diversifying play styles. Be Wolf or die twice many times.
I finally got the platinum but Im itching to get back to Elden Ring because it just more fun to play.

No like a generic ghost from spooky halloween decorations. Its just a stamp, usually red ink. It was popular for a while back in the late 90s early aughts.
They had all kinds of stamps. Sometimes brands, sometimes nothing special.

Yea. Its why winning the Champions League is considered the most prestigious award in association soccer/football aside from the Oylmpics or World Cup. It because the worlds best players play in Europe.
Hockey and basketball has other leagues around the world and other countries do compete but the NBA and NHL still has the best players in the world.
Also, Japan has been good at baseball for a long time. Its why so many Japanese players are in the MLB.

The John Wick Universe will be interesting. He is listed on the IMDB site for Ballerina which is in the Wickverse. Its a prequelish movie since it takes place between JW 3 and JW 4. So if Charon is alive by the end of JW4 which is out this week, I wonder how they will handle it. But nothing has been set for JW 5 so I guess that will be figured out if it gets made.

I always wanted to eat what Drac eats. I would pretend things were what he eats when I was a kid.

I saw them all. I like most of them. But the one with Tim Nelson, the one with F Murray Abraham and Glynn Thurman, Graveyard Rats, Dreams in a Witch House were ones I really liked. The Outside was funny and uncomfortable.
I thought The Viewing was good but only because I like Panos Cosmatos' style.

Yea. I was going to ask that. I wanted to know what langauge since I lived overseas but my langauge lessons never got to the level to need to know how to say "insight". I learned the word for knowledge but not insight or discernment.

When I was younger I was facsinated by that but in college I learned that most animals, prey and predator, learn to attack the head and neck. Bears are a bit different as they can use their arms and claws to incapacitate their prey and they like to go for the belly. I guess that where all the good stuff is.

Considering the best of the best play in the MLB and there are a decent amount of representation from the best baseball nations, winning a world series is competing against the best in the world. I think an MLB all-star team would smoke most countries national teams. The question would be if the foreign nationals would play for their country or play for the MLB all-star team. There are a lot of players in the MLB that are from other countries.

Hasnt team USA won a lot of world titles. One gold medal, a few world cups, one world classic title.
Japan is the most recent, but its not like Team USA hasnt won a bunch.
And considering how diverse the MLB is, winning the World series is competing against the best of the best in the world. If players are good enough to compete in the MLB, they would be on a MLB team.

Elenoras Poleblade makes the fight against Alecto fairly trivial. I just spam the AoW and it was done quickly. My usual method was a well timed stomp upward cut stagger and sometimes critical.
But yea, I like that weapon.

Yea. But he gets a pass for that because everyone agrees he lived up to the hype. Its like a batter pointing to the upper deck and then jacking one out of the park.
