Coca Cola billboard is so old that the landmark marker is itself now a weathering antique


This landmark and archaic Coca Cola billboard is so old that the landmark marker (which tells the story of the sign) is itself weathered to antique status. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/C46JjFEPGlT/

Godzilla Minus One does not deserve their Oscar

Unpopular opinion? The Best Visual Effects Oscar win for Godzilla Minus One (G-1) is undeserved. G-1 was great for a movie for a budget of $15M, but isn't in the same class as The Creator, which was also made on a smaller budget by Hollywood standards. The Creator is far richer and more impressive, with proper depth of field and gorgeous scenes. 

Also, Guardians of the Galaxy 3 (GOTG3) has a big  advantage. In GOTG3, a lot of completely CGI characters that are so well done, you forget they are CGI. In my opinion, both The Creator and GOTG3 are far superior films than G-1 in terms of VFX.  In particular, GOTG3 was robbed.  However, that wouldn't be so bad if The Creator won instead.  But to give the award to G-1 instead of either of those two? Yikes.

I have seen all three of these movies in the theater on the biggest screens available for each.

My friend bought me this Coke over 8 years ago at work ~ I've kept it this whole time just to see what would happen

 I've kept it this whole time just to see what would happen to it. It's been an interesting evolution from pristine bottle of Coke to this warped and transparent near-work-of-art today. But, alas, its time has come to an end as it's now time to pass Coke Matt along to the gods.

I'm enjoying the new sensation of Just Ice Tea


I'm enjoying the new sensation of Just Ice Tea, now that Honest Tea is mostly gone. Somehow, the creators of Honest Tea have improved on their creations with their new brand Just Ice Tea.

Thank you @eatthechange for the surprise gift box full of goodies, including flavors of Just Ice Tea that I didn't know existed. My fav is still Honey Green Tea, but I'm not going to limit myself to just one.

(I wasn't paid or expected to do anything for my gift box.)
