Yeah, I’m a big fan of it but I think of the three it’s the one with the least repeat viewing value. But it’s a brilliant trilogy of comedies so it’s still well above average.
I also think it’s a shame that it got kind of overshadowed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s similarly titled ‘This is The End’ which came out a month earlier because between the two ‘The World’s End’ tells a much more engaging story.

They’re all over reddit too. There’s nothing more pathetic than witnessing a thread get brigaded by a bunch of Muskrats. Imagine living vicariously though the immature twitter antics of a white supremacist billionaire. They’re clowns.
It’s good that he’s going away for 22 years. However, the sentencing guidelines called for between 324 to 405 months (27-33 years) so by the Judge’s own calculations this is a miscarriage of justice and yet another right wing domestic terrorist is being handled with kid gloves. Fucking disgraceful.
Elon Musk said Monday that X, formerly known as Twitter, has “no choice” but to file a defamation lawsuit against the Anti-Defamation League amid an ongoing slump in advertising revenue.
“Based on what we’ve heard from advertisers, ADL seems to be responsible for most of our revenue loss,” Musk wrote on Monday. “Giving them maximum benefit of the doubt, I don’t see any scenario where they’re responsible for less than 10% of the value destruction, so ~$4 billion.”
How to avoid being antisemitic, step one: Don’t blame your incompetence and piss poor judgement on “the Jews.”
A new letter from the Capitol's attending physician says the Senate minority leader is not suffering from a seizure disorder, short strokes known as TIA or movement issues like Parkinson's disease.
No, the attending physician of the US Congress is Dr. Brian Monahan who was nominated for the position by Obama in 2009. But that doesn’t preclude him from being just as much of a liar as “Dr.” Ronny Jackson.

Remember how we sent every C-level to prison for twenty years and fined the company out of existence? lol jk corporations are infallible and it’s our fault our data was held by a private company without our consent.
we have plenty of horrible people who are cops, and we have plenty of good people who are cops that turn to blind eye because they prioritize their lives over the minorities the bad cops are being s*** heads to. any truly good people that would be willing to turn in bad cops end up being ostracized and leaving service. So all we end up with are bad cops and indifferent cops.
There are a huge amount of redditors these days who have no idea old reddit ever existed and the first time they heard of 3rd party apps was when Reddit announced they were pricing them out of existence. Naturally, a lot of those people are going to become mods now and their ignorance about fundamental aspects of the site is glaring.
This is only tangentially related but I started using reddit 13 years ago and the userbase has become increasingly unrecognizable in recent years. But what makes me truly feel like a dinosaur is seeing six month old accounts refer to reddit as “an app”… It’s bizarre to me that so many people’s exposure to reddit is limited to the worst way to possibly use the platform (the official app).
As more and more states pass laws targeting "pornographic material" in books and online, they are repeatedly running up against a problem: The Bible has not just a few passages that could be considered indecent
Lemmy absolutely has good content and good comments, but you can get to the end where there’s no more.
That’s what Reddit was like 12 years ago when I joined. Frankly, I’ll take the higher quality community here on Lemmy over the endless scrolling potential and lowest common denominator discussions on modern Reddit.
President Joe Biden traveled to Florida on Saturday to survey the destruction from Hurricane Idalia and comfort victims of the storm, but he did not meet Governor Ron DeSantis, a potential presidential rival, who opted not to come....
It could have been politically perilous for DeSantis to be photographed with Biden overlooking storm damage now as the nominating race intensifies.
My god republicans are so childish. Imagine being such a temperamental idiot that you can’t be trusted to look at a photograph of a Governor meeting the President without it somehow changing your vote.
