When the fuck have I ever said I had a porn addiction? I believe I said I started watching at too young an age due to the availability of it with internet vs an older cousin stashing playboys.
If you watch pornography at all, you're an addict and need to overcome your mother. I remembered that you talked about your pornography viewing history and thought that the conversation between those gentlemen might be of interest.

I wanted to that movie and no one wanted to go see it!
Then go alone. Or pay someone to be your friend for an evening, or download it or whatever, but you should watch it. It's very good. I was surprised, frankly. I shouldn't have been, but I was. I would like to think that if I had equal access to the resources Tarantino does I might have done just as well but he really does a great job of capturing a moment in time with which I am very familiar. And I'm only talking about the setting, not directing. At the time, there was still a mix of black and white and color programming the like of which we won't see again, just for one example. Going from standard definition to HD was a far quicker transition and not nearly so much of a jarring difference.

I could go on and on and I'm only someone observing Hollywood from the other side of the continent as a child, so I can only imagine the experience of someone slightly older and living in Anytown USA who sees this film.

It's a benefit of being a boomer. A lot of the programming that I have seen over the last decade has been what I tend to call a nostalgiagasm. Lest that turn you off the movie, the acting is great, the scenery is beautiful, and the story is engagingly tangential to real events involving real people. I have a lot of mixed feelings about Tarantino, but this film will take a place among the very greatest movies in my book. It reminds me of Little Big Man--there are very interesting similarities--and that's another movie I think everyone should see.

Ok boomer.
 
Who here doesn’t use blinkers? I guess some people think they’re not cool or something. Really grinds my gears.

Or that guy who puts his blinker on to get over, but can’t, so he turns it off until he finds a gap and then turns it back on after he already started the merge. Hey, guy - we have eyes. Once you change direction, we all see it. There’s no need for the blinker now.
 
I finally figured out that the katakana is Berserk. Just finished watching it on Netflix. The end had me scratching my head.

there's a master 7+ hour cut of both the 1997 anime & the 1st movie put together.

found it:
 
Ever see the series Space, Above and Beyond? It seemed to me like they were trying to shed some light on that, among other things. That program had a depressingly short life. I really liked it.
Never heard of it, but it looks like YouTube has full rips of the whole thing up.

I think it's mostly young people. I was shit head driver until I hit like 23. Rarely signaled, tailgated, sped like a maniac, cut people off....you name it. I was that asshole on the roads.

Luckily, I had some consequence free reality checks, and learned some lessons. Mainly due to winter driving. Got too confident, made some bad moves, escaped a few what should've been deadly accidents without a scratch, and calmed the fuck down. I'm guessing drivers like me in California or wherever, just stay assholes.
