The ski season opens tomorrow.  2 weeks early.

 

Vail Resorts will have ski resorts operating at the same time in both the southern and northern hemispheres.

started watching that Renee Zee indecent proposal thing. Horrific. Worse than 50 shades.

@CJohn SIC's Tuesday: nearly 23%. TVI's Tuesday: just barely past 15%. This is like Summer 2018 but with the roles reversed

 

Golpe de Sorte had another insanely strong result, losing very little of its premiere audience. Prisioneira rebounded a little bit, as it never sunk below Joker and had a slight increase..... and by slight increase, I mean it went up to 9.5% rating and just over 20% share. Yesterday it did less than that. Still, a massive far cry from the 13.5% rating and over 28% share that Golpe pulled off. These aren't Herdeira numbers yet, but they're about Ouro Verde numbers, and that's a great start.

 

Alma e Coração, SIC's previous 9PM megaflop, is now officially an 11PM success. It clearly made good use of both its lead-in and the months it spent at 9PM. It annihilated A Teia. which sunk to Vidas Opostas-like lows; it hit almost the same rating that Prisioneira did at 9PM (9.2%); and it broke its 2019 share record.

 

Like Me tanked to apocalyptic levels. At 7PM, it clocked in 8.9%......... share. Not rating, but share. The weakest premiere for a reality show diary EVER for TVI. That's not hyperbole: it's real. The Farmer, which had another special episode, tripled it, while The Price Is Right doubled it. And at midnight, the Globo soap Segundo Sol absolutely destroyed the late night diary. And here I thought that maybe it had a chance after its better than expected premiere, but after the jaw-dropping lows of Inspetor Max, Raid The Cage, Who Wants To Marry My Son, TVI On Air and so fort..... this has topped all of them in the failtastic meter. Goodness fucking gracious.

 

And last, but certainly not least, it has finally happened: Você na TV came in third after both Cristina and Praça da Alegria. It was Maria Cerqueira Gomes' birthday. And yet, nevermind doing about half of Programa da Cristina, Você na TV also lost to RTP. One year ago, that sounded like it would never, ever, ever happen. How things can change.

 

TVI, it was good knowing you. But your time of death has arrived.

It is very late and I was aware about Você na TV being 3rd and I thought that was the biggest holy shit moment but Like Me with a 9% share at 7 PM HOLY SHIT. It is gonna get reduced to a midnight diary by next Monday. It is so cheap they might still air it for 2 or 3 months like Love On Top tho. TVI is the gift that keeps on giving. Now is the time for RTP1 to try and get 2nd place.

I linked to it in the Onward thread because Tree said something stupid ("onward isn't an adjective") and the thread got temporarily derailed by people correcting him.

high life is probably my favourite movie of the year so far but i can't get over

Spoiler

that one random scene of two characters on a train we never see again explain the premise of the movie. that shit was sloppy as hell. I don't know why it's there literally everything they say is reiterated by characters later on. just put it on a title card at the start if you felt like you had to explain it claire!!!

@WrathOfHan happy birthday... i'm including all of 2019 because i can't remember when i did it last; released films will be bolded, since i'm gonna try to do these regularly again:

Hangover came out this week ten years ago too.

 

For me it's like the comedy version of the Matrix.   Original is the best followed by crappy sequels.   Although I disliked the Hangover II so much I never really bothered with III

Hangover's 10th anniversary is actually next week heh.

And so is Drag Me to Hell. Up was the last movie I saw before graduating high school, and Drag Me to Hell was the first I saw after.

 

As great as Up is, however, there's no experience I've had with it - not even getting misty-eyed af to the "Married Life" montage - that holds a candle to my freshman year roommate completely losing his shit laughing at the seance with the goat in Drag Me to Hell later that fall.

Seeing Drag Me to Hell on opening weekend was a treat. Everybody in the theater was losing their shit to that iconic car fight.

Well, they both did have crazy staying power and opened a week apart from each other.

 

That summer was insane in retrospect. Star Trek, Up, The Hangover, and The Proposal all opening well and finishing with great multipliers during the first half of the summer. We'd be lucky to see that kind of staying power for anything today (then again, comedies are now facing the threat of becoming an endangered species at the multiplex, unfortunately).

[dxmatrixdt]

is there any good movies with old actors that doesn't feel like a slave-like?

is this there reality tv?
