I love Scorsese and I usually don’t mind how long his films are, case in point Killers of the Flower Moon. But Gangs of New York is not only too long and weirdly self indulgent, but whatever Cameron Diaz is doing in her role is… Not great and makes me sad every time.

What I took away from this is that the Exploding Heads people never truly left, they just migrated to different instances and some are still lurking on Lemmy.
I use Boost because it has a tagging feature. So instead of blocking people with smoking hot trash takes I tag them so I can read their posts and comments with scepticism in the future.
I only block people who troll and do nothing else.
It’s really helpful for not shrinking the pool of comments or posts I can read.
What was a movie you didn't like that everyone else enjoyed?
