Would Mr. Kubrick have liked or admired "The Odyssey"?

Just a guess, but I bet he would. Especially Christopher Nolan's aesthetic to shoot on film and his disdain for A.I.

They could compare notes. After all SK used the word Odyssey in his film title before CN ever picked up a camera!

Always disappointed when the first clue in either round is the Daily Double

Especially the first round, it renders the DD almost worthless.

Have you seen a Final Jeopardy! with only one player?

Makes you almost want to bet everything but a $1, since it would be a winner.

Stephanie's hypocrisy. . .

OK, so Alex left his smartphone at home. Eye roll. Just go with it.

It rings and Stephanie has the gall to delete a message. Wasn't it not too long ago she went ape sh*t when Alex did the same thing to her phone?

Love the hypocrisy. That's why I watch!

How the Kiriakis men will ultimately prevail over EJ. . .

Looks like EJ has the upper hand, but not so fast. . .

Wait until the Kiriakis' learn of DiMera Pharma's scandal.

Can you say blackmail and forget about the usurious loan? I think so.

The Sky's Pies vs. Corleone's Pizza feud--A libel suit ready to happen

The following was posted by Sky's Pies in response to the ongoing libel spewed by the MAGA Pizza owner at Corleone's Pizza.

"We are compelled to address the ongoing situation between Sky's Pies and Corleone's in a professional and public manner due to the volume of customer emails, phone calls, and messages we've received regarding this matter. As many are aware, we have experienced persistent issues with the owner of Corleone's since our inception. Unfortunately, this has included numerous instances of him disparaging our establishment and harassing our employees on social media. Although there was an exchange between Alex and our staff, it ceased when he blocked everyone, and we had hoped the matter would resolve itself. However, he continued to slander us, making unfounded accusations, including labeling us as drug addicts and attacking our business, employees, and location. Notably, throughout this ordeal, I, Skylor, have not engaged with any of these provocations, choosing instead to maintain a professional demeanor. Those familiar with me can attest that I treat everyone with kindness and respect, which has been consistent with the values my wife and I have instilled in our business since its inception. Our dream of opening and running a successful business has been marred by the continued harassment and slander from Sammy Tad, also known as Sam Tadros, a friend of Alex. This individual is currently harassing me, my family, our employees, and our business, creating fake profiles to leave positive reviews for Corleone's while disparaging us. They have jointly created a page posting false information, including old mugshots, and have made false reports to the health inspector. Threats to use our children in fake AI pictures for internet smear campaigns and racist remarks towards an employee, including derogatory references, have been particularly egregious. Alex's posting of an old mugshot of one of our employees, despite receiving a cease and desist notice, has been a significant concern. We have chosen to remain quiet for fear of impacting our business, but we acknowledge that this has allowed the situation to escalate. This prolonged harassment, lasting almost two years, has affected not only the owners but also numerous employees. We stand up for what is right and request that our business, employees, friends, family, and customers be left in peace. We appreciate the support and motivation from our customers, friends, family, and employees and will continue to move forward with dignity and professionalism. Also, Alex you can post you want peace all you want. You continuing to engage with the knowingly fake profiles says otherwise. Actions speak louder than words!"

Finally watched "The Furious" a Midnight Madness selection from 2025

What a film! The greatest action thriller since "The Raid".

I can imagine how the MM audience responded to the action sequences.

A terrific film, 98% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Which businesses in the D.B. area are overtly MAGA?

By overtly, I mean MAGA ideology in their advertising, in the items seen in their businesses, or in their online presence.

I'm sure I've supported businesses that love Trump, but keep their politics to themselves. That's fine. I ask only in order to know which ones broadcast their affiliation in a blatant manner. Those businesses, I will not support.

Is "Obsession" the biggest financial hit that ever played at TIFF Midnight Madness?

I've seen many great films at TIFF over the years, and so often they never have a life after the film festival stage, or they're released with little fanfare and close within a week.

"Obsession" seems to have broken all the rules financially, and I tell my friends with pride that I was there at the world premiere.

Is it TIFF 51 or TIFF 26?

Either way, the thrill of the 50th anniversary has worn off and maybe this year it won't be as insane as it was in 2025.

Still planning on clapping along to the Varda commercial and letting out with a robust "Arrrgh" when No Pirating is mentioned.

Abe's timeline

Lexi leaves the room to "freshen up", meanwhile Theo tells Abe that Chanel has cancer. Abe doesn't say goodbye, but hightails over to Chanel's place where he runs into Paulina just outside their door. They uncomfortably say goodbye, but does Abe knock on the door to express his regrets? No!

In Salem people live old school. They often don't bother calling, just drop in unexpectedly, and in this case, waste the gas that it took to drive over.

Suspension of disbelief is strong today!

Did the writers paint themselves into a corner with the Lexi storyline?

I hope not. But this Frankenstein gimmick can only end decisively by having Lexi unable to survive for long. Then Abe would have to woo Paulina all over again, and maybe by that time, she'll have a new man of her own . . .
