neutral · AI labelView post →☢️#208. Seeking a Friend For the End of the World, 2012. This depressing date movie is at its best when illuminating the dark crevasses of the human condition. Unfortunately much of the runtime is spent navel gazing with an uninspired man and his #manicpixiedreamgirl. 3.5/5 ☢️

A dark comedy following a premise that global destruction from a massive asteroid strike is imminent in 3 weeks. Steve Carrell plays a shy guy who decides to finally search for his long-lost high school love. I give it a B+.

negative · AI labelView post →Well I don't want to see the end. Other than the climate issues that are already to far gone to have anything remotely like the lives we have right now. All the other stuff we can fight and get through. I do grieve for humanitys lost potential as a species. I live like someone that is terminal and charish everyday and make a bucket list for things I want to do before I can't do them anymore. I can't tell you how much I want to be wrong but reading the ipcc reports. You can't help but count…
