Now I'm sitting here in awe, wondering how you were able to keep both eyes open for the whole movie. Bravo

It'd be awesome if they can continue with that mindset but unfortunately I'm a skeptic.

I just scrolled through 200+ comments and did not see Cloverfield. I really can't say anything about the storyline itself as this was one I physically could not sit through. In addition to others who ended their suffering before us, I and 2 family members all experienced severe motion sickness within the first half hour and had to walk out. Didn't think it was worth throwing up over.

So I get yelled at for forgetting to take out my kindle, while they're missing a whole person slipping past security. Smh

I'd never get that Netflix badge.

Beautiful. But genuinely curious- does a bonsai eventually become a tree? Because that's bigger than any actual trees I've attempted to grow.

From this angle, I feel like the white car's right rear (or front too?) wheel would hit the curb if a previous car tried parking like the middle car. Or maybe there is more space to white car's left than it seems. But I'll still vote ass.

You've unlocked a core memory for me. Think I was about 4~5 yo, we were on a family trip to a resort. I was sitting on a noodle bent in a U-shape in the pool and had waded towards the middle, still next to the wall though because I didn't know how to swim. Although my mom always had me wear the life vest, this one time i didn't as I thought the noodle was all I needed and also didn't want to look like a baby in front of my older cousins.

Before I even realized, the noodle shot out from under my butt and I just silently sunk. None of that flailing and splashing that they do on TV happens. I also clearly recall just looking up at the super-close surface, gulping down mouthfuls of water in an attempt to breathe, thinking this was the end. And I think the worst part was feeling the wall with my hands but being unable to grab the ledge because it was too high (I was underwater, my arms were short, etc).

My uncle was sitting literally feets away from me, he said he was watching, it just looked like I was playing- bobbing my head in and out. Then he realized I wasn't coming up and jumped in to save me. My parents almost quite literally threw me into ymca swim classes as soon as we got back home.

If I ever have kids, swim lessons will be a must.

No disagreements with you there. Just trying to play devil's advocate to see where the reasoning could have possibly come from :\

I saw it in the trailer too but just in case, upcoming spoiler: maybe the whole beaching each other off scene? I can't think of any others besides that, which if it is the one, then that's kind of funny in a ridiculous way.

 

Sometimes my brain hits me with the most mundane memories, and even those bring comfort & nostalgia at times. Trying to appreciate all the little things and enjoy the moment.

Is it weird that I'm partially relieved seeing this post? I found all these weird apps on my phone the other day and thought I had been hacked or something. whew...?
