Also in one of the houses I was in when younger had 2 switches on opposite ends of a hall that controlled the same light, so up/down to turn on would change constantly on each end
My apartment right now has two switches like this. One's by the front door, the other just outside the kitchen.

I've lived in a billion US houses and virtually all of them had at least one room where a shitty electrician wired something such that a switch worked backwards.
And I've also lived in several houses where two switches in different parts of a room would turn the same thing on or off, meaning that their on/off and up/down states were just guesswork most of the time.
Woo, just watched Bill and Ted Face the Music. I think it's the best Bill and Ted movie. The daughters are definitely the best. And seeing present day Keanu play Ted is so funny. Also, they nailed the concert and the ending. It felt like what the ending of two was trying to do but done well.

My house has two switches, one upstairs and one downstairs, that both control the upstairs landing light. It also has two that control the main downstairs hall light - one near the front door and one at the other end of the hall, where it meets the living room and the bottom of the stairs, in a double switch with the downstairs landing light switch.
It's more complicated to describe than it is to use...

Fun fact, light switches that are controlled with two switches function as an XOR gate!
Man the first time I pulled off an XOR gate in Minecraft so I could open a secret door from two locations I felt like Thomas fucking Edison.
Umm. Something something movies.
I submitted an entry to Lego Ideas, and if 10,000 people support me, it'll be turned into an actual Lego set!If you'd like to see and support my submission, follow this link.

If that’s the case it implies the jurors were flipping the lights on and off to spite each other in a light fight. Missed opportunity by the director.

WB moved their holiday tentpole WW84 directly atop their other holiday tentpole, Dune
They are now scheduled to open seven days apart, over Christmas

Likewise.
And if I notice that a switch is "wrong" I'll, without exception, go all the way to the other switch so that they're "correct".

I would imagine they serve as counterprogramming to each other, and there will still probably be little competition otherwise.
In different times I wouldn't hesitate to see them back to back even if both exceeded 3 hours runtime. Not this year though.
Maybe. It will be CHristmas though, and for many it will be the best chance to get out. Dune and WW are not going to generally be eating each others audiences. One is very much family flavored and the other looks like Blade Runner 2049, which isn't to say it's a bad thing, and I have no idea what rating it's going for, but it's not the kid and family market.

I'd think DUNE marketing would go hard after young boys. So not the traditional "family film" (like Wonder Woman 84), but definitely boys dragging the family to see it sort of thing.
After the disappointing release of TeneT I'm pretty sure anything big is either going to go to end up a digital release or get pushed out into mid-2021.

In the spirit of gettin' spooky, my partner and I started watching Halloween movies today. We started with one neither of us have seen called Trick R' Treat. Decent rather recent anthology movie about different scary stories on Halloween that happen in a town. We've seen Sam being referenced a lot in Etsy art and online, so he's been kind of luring us into watching the movie, and it wasn't bad. Definitely some nit-picky stuff that comes from horror, but I enjoyed it a bunch. Sam is a rad character.
I found it funny that Anna Paquin
is a werewolf around the time when True Blood was a thing.

We watched the Princess Bride cast script reading last night and it was absolutely delightful. Mandy Patinkin and Wallace Shawn especially went all in. Patinkin was even swinging around the sword, having the time of his life doing his old accent.
And then the cast just telling stories with Billy Crystal and Carol Kane was just brilliant. I was dying at the story of them going to lunch in the Miracle Max and Valerie makeup, Crystal stayed in character and just riffed with the servers. "This Shepard's pie, is it spicy? You don't know my colon."
Under the Silver Lake worked more often than not for me, sort of as a deconstruction of obsessive behavior, the need to see patterns and meaning in everything, the desire to be in the center of the narrative, and so on. Plus I just appreciate a film willing to go fully surreal and bonkers. But yeah it didn't quite stick the landing, the ending was muddled and felt rushed instead of tying all the pieces and themes together.

In America, you clap twice to turn a light on or off.

At a guess without watching, its the banana in the tailpipe.

I would imagine that neither one will actually open over Christmas, let alone both.

Aiming for that southern hemisphere demographic.
Correction, it was Michael Ealy who played the android.
Note to Hollywood: be more like Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson, please.

This is, afaik, the universal reaction to the film. So probably not gonna have much luck on that front. :P
The very definition of falling off hard, since It Follows is one of the best horror films I've ever seen.
They are both by the same guy, David Robert Mitchell.
Under the Silver Lake is ... ambitious but perhaps does not actually land.
You sure can't say he didn't try to do something different, but... yeesh. Maybe he should stick to high concept 80s-inspired horror films.
Reading the synopsis on IMDB it sounds like QAnon the movie
