Would You Rather: Questions 131-140

131. Would you rather watch a movie at home or go to the movies?

Well, this is already an interesting question. I haven't been to the movies for nearly thirteen years. Yes, it's true. I'm sure I'll enjoy the movies experience one again one day, but for now, enjoying movies from the comfort of my couch, cheaper food, and being able to pause if needed - I'll take that. 

132. Would you rather fight alongside the Starks from Game of Thrones or the Avengers?

I know nothing about Game of Thrones. I like The Avengers, so I'm rolling with that squad. They also just feel cooler. 

133. Would you rather binge-watch an entire TV series show or binge-watch a movie series?

I truly believe movies deserve time to settle and digest after viewing them. I recently watched the entire Harry Potter series this Spring, and that was also the case - one-a-day. I'll binge the TV shows because they're shorter, and have more continuity in their creative intent than movie series. 

134. Would you rather marry Jim Halpert from The Office or Jack Dawson from Titanic?

I love The Office. Give me Jim Halpert. Have you seen the way he treats Pam? 

135. Would you rather be a member of the Plastics or a member of the Breakfast Club?

Both are great movies. But the Plastics were just outright mean. I couldn't live that life. Plus, the Breakfast Club is the kind of depth and deep dialogue I would enjoy in High School. 

136. Would you rather spend money on a streaming service or a movie ticket?

See above. Give me a streaming service. More options. 

137. Would you rather be stuck in an elevator for 3 hours with Jess from New Girl or Gloria from Modern Family?

I really never found Modern Family funny. It had a few moments, but it wasn't my thing. New Girl on the other hand is a regular in-the-background-watch favorite of mine. Love the crew from the loft. So yeah, give me Jess. 

138. Would you rather have Michael Scott from The Office or Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation as your new boss?

Ugh - one of the hardest questions, yet. I love both shows. However, Leslie Knope gets EVERYTHING done. Like, everything. Give me Knope. 

139. Would you rather attend Hogwarts or Bayside? 

I honestly want to say Hogwarts. Because, you know, I'm now down with Potter after this past Spring. However, Hogwarts is always under attack, and quite frankly, way too many events that question the safety of those who attend there occurs. 

Bayside, well, those kids did it all. I'm going there. 

140. Would you rather dance with Johnny Castle from Dirty Dancing or have Patrick Verona sing to you ala 10 Things I Hate About you? 

While they killed it in Dirty Dancing, something about the age difference creeped me out about Johnny Castle. I wasn't buying him and Baby at all. 

Patrick Verona singing while evading campus safety in front of a college-campus-like high school - that's dreamy. So dreamy.

Dome Pondering Move Review: Say You Will (2017)

What is it about? A recent high school graduate cares for his mother while attempting to navigate his first relationship following his father's suicide.  Who is in it? Travis Tope - Sam Nimitz Katherine Hughes - Ellie Vaughn Favorite Scene: [spoiler alert] Sam plays his song for his mom. Favorite Quote: Ellie: "I wish we could have met down the road, maybe when we were like 27." Sam: "I think we needed each other now." Review:  Say You Will was an absolutely pleasant surprise of a watch from the Amazon Prime offerings.  I wasn't exactly sure what to expect with this one, but after the credits rolled, it was a movie that provided authentic characters and a great lesson on life. We don't always have to have everything figured out, and it's okay if you don't.  What makes Say You Will so beautiful is that all of the characters are carrying some inner struggle that connects them in the moment and time that helps them through whatever it is. The unlike...

Yankees 2025 Postseason - Ponderings and Stuff

Because of the response I received last year for my ponderings on last year's World Series , I decided to do the same for this year's MLB Postseason run. I'll drop some quick ponderings on the Yankees and their playoff run here. Because, well, I don't do "response videos".  Yeah, still a words guy. Still a nerd. Nonetheless, who knows? If the Yankees drop a quick two to the despised Boston Red Sox, this might be a quick wrap-up. Orrrrrrrrrr, we're looking at a collection of thoughts for a World Series title.  I'll calm down.  Dropping some ponderings below - thanks in advance for following along... --- Game 1  Red Sox d. Yankees, 3-1 (BOS leads series 1-0) And. Here. We. Go. [in your favorite Joker voice] Yankee fandom is likely going to be in full insufferable panic mode after this loss. I'm expecting the usual takes of "it's Boone's fault" and something to do with Cashman, and other bad takes on why "they trust anayltics ...

Dome Pondering Movie Review: Hello, I Must Be Going (2012)

What is it about? A woman moves back in with her parents following a shocking divorce. An unlikely affair with a younger guy revives her life and perspective on marriage. Who is in it? Melanie Lynskey - Amy Christopher Abbott - Jeremy Blythe Danner - Ruth Favorite Scene: Amy's dad, who is often much easier on her than her mom, comes to her bedside and gives her some money. She refuses, then he insists. She then asks, "whose happiness are you buying?" Favorite Quote: Where the f** is 'bottom'? Where the motherf***ing f*** is motherf***ing 'bottom'? Review: Hello, I Must Be Going was an interesting watch. I've always found Melanie Lynskey to be an intriguing actor, and her role in this was just that.  What makes this film so interesting is that, going into the film, you believed this would be a film documenting Amy's journey from recent divorcee into...well, wherever it is she goes. The beauty of this film is that Amy's journey was just a public...
