john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 03/10/2026this is where it's heading for me too. i haven't even read the reviews, but a tomato score around 50 is kind of an awesome place for this one to be 010
john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Personally I see it as an enterprise too over-leveraged to destroy shit in the ways people fear; and one that, in an even slightly less favorable political climate, is primed to break itself up into more manageable pieces, for some financial relief 150
john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 02/10/2026i really struggle to even believe the levels of lost-the-plot derangement on display in Illinois senate race ads that beg the viewer to know and care about who Hasan Piker is 040
john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 02/10/2026cannot be overstated how badly the sky fucked up. i try not to be a jilted fan about my teams, but this one is going to be hard to ever forgive 0111

john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026i don't think i really had feelings about billy bob thornton before but the Landman/T-Mobil ad combo has quickly placed him in the get the fuck out of my face category 120
john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026pretty happy with the information/news walls i've built up over the last year. i'm still over-informed, but much more often have the pleasant sensation of not knowing what the hell anyone is talking about 071

john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026tom cruise has been a boring franchise-slop actor for twenty years, garnering broad cult praise from a broken nation for leaning too far into a midlife crisis that became a deep-life crisis. his new movie, an attempt to over-correct this long derailment, will only highlight it further 271
john wilmes @wilmes.bsky.social · 29/09/2026i know that managing sports-watching during the streaming era can be annoying and expensive, but people act like it was so easy to know what channel games were on in the past, and that simply wasn't the case. there was confusion then as well; and, even more so, just not that many games to watch 230
