Why you shouldn’t throw out those DVDs and Blu-Rays
  • Subtitles for most movies are really easy to find online. I use subtitlist.net for this, and Subtitle Edit for obscure items in my collection that don't have publicly available subtitles online.

    If you put the SRT files in the same directory as your items, with the same name, PLEX should pull it and use it as the subtitle for the movie or episode it belongs to.

  • Have y'all seen the theatrical re-release of The Phantom Menace? What was your experience?
  • Yeah I was also surprised at how entertaining it was (although I'm beginning to think that the pod race sequence was basically ripped from the 1959 Ben-Hur chariot race sequence lol). People complain about the politics, and I enjoyed how they were being used in the movie (although I kinda wished they showed exactly how the people of Nabboo were being oppressed exactly).

    That clip of The Acolyte made me excited too, although a bit wistful since we won't be able to see the series in theaters at all. That would be so much fun. I have a fair bit of faith in it despite all the noise because some of the writers have written House Of The Dragon and Mr. Robot episodes, I think if the show ends up being bad they'd have to have done that on purpose lol. Review bombing the trailers is completely ridiculous.

    Don't count on streaming.

    Have y'all seen the theatrical re-release of The Phantom Menace? What was your experience?
  • It's probably widespread, it's not that different than how it looks on my 2019 4K copy of the movie. It's just more noticeable because it's on a huge projector.

    I do hope that the splotchy pixels issue was isolated to the theater I went to though. I found it bizarre and have never seen anything like it at a theater before.

  • Have y'all seen the theatrical re-release of The Phantom Menace? What was your experience?

    Honestly, I was slightly let down by the experience fidelity-wise. Because of the CGI used, many elements were blurry here and there and because of the composite shots combining real elements with CGI, there were some moments where for example Jar Jar Binks would be blurry but the background would look normal. Also there were these weird pixelated colored dots that'd appear onscreen every five minutes or so.

    But hey the audio was fine and the movie is WAY better than I remember.

    Supreme Court appears likely to side with Trump on some presidential immunity
  • From what I'm hearing, it's very likely that SCOTUS will uphold that actions that are part of official duties will have presidential immunity, but other activities will not.

    For example, let's say that terrorists were in a building in America, and Trump authorized a strike on that building, killing many civilians (just as an example). That would be an official action, qualifying him from immunity. But, if he does something like bash his wife's head in, even as president, he does not have immunity from that.

    It's my understanding that this is the traditional view of the laws in question, I am not sure that Trump will be able to get that immunity expanded like he wants.

    Conservatives Quickly Turn Against “Idiot” Marjorie Taylor Greene
  • Well, I don't know. Democrats are more vocal about it for sure, but that's just because many of them hate either Jews or Israel. Democrats seem to love Ukraine, and would like to keep funding them, while Republicans seem to not care about them at all.

  • Conservatives Quickly Turn Against “Idiot” Marjorie Taylor Greene
  • As a conservative myself, NYP and Fox News messaging doesn't represent the true values or positions of the GOP base.

    While most Republican politicians support continuing to fund Ukraine with no end, most Republicans are at most cautious of that idea, if not opposed to it altogether. There's a big reason why the GOP presidential candidates were trying so hard to convince the audience that funding the war is a good idea.

    Florida woman who stole, sold Biden's daughter's diary sentenced to 1 month in prison
  • If Trump took nude showers with Ivanka, nobody would be saying that he's just a "weird nudist", he would be accused of incest and pedophilia. The insinuation is legitimate.

    I don't know that Biden has actually slept with kids before, but he clearly has an attraction to them.
