  1. Past hour
  2. For me, not a lot of solid movies by these people: Dwayne Johnson, Chris Pratt, Jennifer Lawrence, Rami Malek, Timothée Chalamet, Eddie Redmayne
  3. I'll always love Cantona but he's no actor at all, of course. Well, he's not much of a public figure at all either here nowadays, not anymore. He made some awkward public moves years ago...
  4. While typically I would completely agree that its Nicolas Cage, he's been on a bit of a tear lately IMO. Dream Scenario The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent Pig All quite food films.
  5. Khao Soi Gai Next time will add the crispy bits.
  6. H. Upmann Magnum 48 EL '09 Fantastic smoke. Even my mom liked it 🤣
  7. Here she is. Very busy doing more cancelling Glad you decided to relaunch. Let them come... Χα_πανοσ.
  8. Eric Cantona! I love this guy. I am a fan of Man United's classic adversary, so I tell no one of my admiration of him. Not the worst actor either but barely passable I think. Saw him in Elizabeth, the second one on the plane recently. Loved seeing him in the movie but if it weren't for who he was, the acting would've hardly made the cut. I really like how he made it to cinema and art world in general though, kudos to him. It must be amusing for France to even have him exist at all.
  9. Today
  10. Keanu Reeves. Pasty and boaring. Someone will probably want to slap me because she likes the John Wick movies. Nicholas cage is an absolute shocker as well.
  11. Keanu Reeves is pasty boaring . How dare you. Such a perfect man.
  12. The worst performance by a supposedly A-list actor would have to be Matt Damon in The Departed, I wouldn't say he's a bad actor though. Paul Dano in There Will Be Blood is a close second but how would any actor math Daniel Day-Lewis' performance anyway... Also, any movie with Michael Fassbender or Terrence Howard is a hard pass for me. But we're being sexist here, what about Brie Larson or Kristen Stewart... Steven Seagal is hard to beat though, below that it's even hard to use the word "actor" but names like Chuck Norris or even worse, Michael Dudikoff stand out.
  13. Barry beat me to it - nic cage (every film over acted!!!)
  14. Didn’t know of your channel before. So on a positive note you got a new subscriber 😊 Looking forward to your videos.
  15. Sorry to hear this, Chris. I hope you get back all your reviews!
  16. The worst acting performance of all time in a film would have to go to Tommy Wiseau in 'The Room'. The worst actor who has made a career out of playing roles badly would have to go to Adam Sandler. Sure, he surprises sometimes with movies like 'Punch-Drunk Love' or 'Uncut Gems', but mostly he plays the same version of Adam Sandler.
  17. …that’s totally acceptable, you were buying Girl Scout cookies off me! 😄
  18. Looks like mine was a dud. I’ll give it another shot with the other I’ve got. It started off absolutely great, too bad it ended the way it did.
  19. When young, one is more liable to encounter stronger coffee notes in this cigar. Over the long-term those coffee notes tend to recede and the cigar builds in cream texture, which makes a nice interplay with the grass/hay and citrus. Yes, these would be my favourite two of the Siglo line too. (Although, I would have the Cohiba Siglo III as my first preference and the Siglo V as my second.)
  20. An 8-9-8 that comes in boxes of 10…what more could you ask for? Cold draw has wood and a little saltiness, but that’s all I can really make out. Light-up, on the other hand, has a lot of berry, some cream, and splashes of soda around the palate. The finish, quite a long one, has some nuttiness. Going on, it gets remarkably more rich right away, having a berry compote on toasted rye, with a dash of black pepper. The result is actually something like a Dr Pepper, or his poor imitation, Mr Pibb (“Dude didn’t even get his degree.” RIP Mitch). The flavor is excellent, but the burn leaves some to be desired. One side of the cigar seems to be flame-retardant, even though this has been in a dry box for three days. After a touch-up, things are rolling again. I always find that immediately after a touch-up, there is a burst of added flavor, and in my mind I’m thinking that’s the portion of wrapper I’m tasting, that I wasn’t tasting on the previous few draws. If you think wrapper leaf doesn’t matter, and yes I know that exactly none of you think that, just notice the difference after you have to touch up one side of a stick. Big pop in flavor. Heading into the second third, this is a swirling palate of flavors. Everything from nuts (almond, cashew), to fruits (blueberry, strawberry), to dried fruits (raisins, cranberry), to damp wood and cheesy funk. Other than a honeyed sourdough base, nothing is lasting a particularly long time, but there are also not many elbows. I wouldn’t call them flavor transitions, more like comparing overlapping melodic lines in a Renaissance madrigal that continuously cycle. Interesting blend. And yes… I’m working right now, hence the musical comparison. And no, my students can’t tell a Renaissance madrigal from a Medieval chant. The semester is young, though. Around the midpoint, the cigar inexplicably goes out. Not that long between draws, and it’s not overly moist, so there’s a ding on construction there. After a relight, there is a bit of a dumb phase, but eventually we seem to be back on track. Flavors turn here to a fruity stout, with a custard finish. Sprinkles of coriander. Last third gives me dark agave, some citrus and vanilla spice, a little bit more pepper heat, and toasted brioche with fig jam. It also gives me lots of trouble. Had to relight twice more, a definite detriment to the construction. Gets bitter towards the nub. Unfortunately I cant say I enjoyed the latter half of this very much, but I think it’s down to the construction. I do have one more of these, and I’ll give it another go, hoping it comes out better than this one did.
  21. This is the bait I was snagged on - perfection in a cigar. It can't be faulted for it's pricing, but it's unobtanium for most. Cheers
  22. Auto-subscribed! Can't wait to see the Kirby piece get published!
