I keep hoping that the movie ends with none of the dead characters coming back to life, and it turns out the Spider-Man: Far From Home trailer was just an effect of the reality gem.

The Moomins are a family of trolls that I’d describe as half Peanuts, half Adventure Time. They started as a book series and became a comic, anime, and theme park.

When you’re an adult, you realize that the Earth’s population was half what it currently is in 1972 and that most of the destruction of the environment is due to a the wholesale slaughter of other wild species, which need to be, if anything quintupled, not reduced. Real problems cannot be solved by magic fingers.

To be fair to Snyder, Burton’s Batman definitely killed a lot of people with bombs, guns, and church bells.

This is why the target audience for superhero comics is (or should be) children. Once anyone with half an ounce of sense looks at the stories, superheroes can’t help but look like the worst idea ever in real life. When you boil it down in adult terms, superheroes are nothing but fascist, violent, juvenile power…

Part of happiness better fucking include Moominworld.

My mom makes no-bake cheesecake for our elderly neighbors on 4th of July.

Snyder: In the real world, Superman kills people.

East Asian is a race. Korea and Japan are nationalities.

Korea and Japan are nationalities, not races. The visual genetic differences are minimal at best.

There are too many actresses named after cheese these days. 

UGH.

Then, for your happiness, I shall not regale you with the particulars of the processes of craft breweries.

As well they should. My opinion is that most DC characters are too archetypal and resistant to change to make a cinematic universe work. The best thing would be a series of stand-alone movies, like the first 40 years of James Bond, with a constantly rotating cast and new directors bringing their personal style to each…

I would argue against “parable,” only because parables assume lessons, and Get Out had no lessons (besides, you know, “get out!”)  It just held a twisted funhouse mirror up to a certain aspect of society and gave it physical form.

While yeah, for an online subscription service, viewership doesn’t matter, Netflix is also a corporation, and frankly, on principle, literally every piece of information about their doings short of the Colonel’s secret recipe of eleven herbs and spices should be available to the public.  When companies keep things…

It is easy to make that theoretical argument. But as a practical matter, it is hard to think of any society in human history in which a majority population has said that as a consequence of historic wrongs, we are now going to take a big chunk of the nation’s resources over a long period of time to make that right.…

If anyone questions why the CG in Marvel movies looks terrible, it’s because they have to peel animators off of rendering the Hulkbuster to render a fake cat for Nick Fury to pet.

That actually can be a problem sometimes. The VFX people have sort of taken control of all the fight scenes in the MCU, and they stage them in the most boring ways imaginable. They all take place on a single flat plane, and they’re all lit either with in-scene lights, or bright sunlight in a washed out cloudy sky.…
