Give her a Star Wars movie you cowards. Or at least a couple of a Mandalorian episodes!

I....disagree. Way more TV series of all kinds need to normalize depictions of healthy platonic relationships. The last three “girl power” shows I’ve watched (Korra, She-Ra, Xena) have all gone the “female BFF lead characters are gay/bi” route, and I really deeply appreciated Buffy making it okay to have people “just…

I never signed up for Quibi, nor did I see any of their content save for one clip of the “bury me with my golden arm” thing that became memetic, but the jokes at Quibi’s expense over these last few months were certainly worth $1.8b of venture capitalists’ money.

I’m Jacks complete lack of surprise

Quibikly.

It was designed to get around union rules, and you should mention that in every article, or does Spanfeller not let you?

It’s like calling yourself a “lunch platform” because you let someone order the menu item as a sandwich *or* a bowl.  

I love the attempt to blame COVID on it not being received well. A lack of empty time was *not* one of the issues I was facing during lockdown or since.

The weirdest thing about the Quibi debacle (Quibacle?!) is explaining HOW it even happened. I don’t know anybody that would have told a market research company “I *love* the idea of watching movies on my tiny little phone screen!”

I guess Katzenberg is classifying it as a “tech failure” because Quibi’s whole selling point was “It’s a streaming service you can only watch on your phone”. What a dumb idea.

Now the big question, who gets the streaming rights to the shows I deemed unworthy to sign up for a free trial to watch?

I dunno how much harder I can pass on this project by now. Like, the pass has become a diamond.

“They’ve reached rock bottom,” you said. “There’s no way it could any dumber or any worse,” you insisted. Zack Snyder replied, “Hold my beer.”

Anyone else get How to Train Your Dragon vibes when Atticus held his hand out and  the shoggoth placed its ‘nose’ in his palm?

This is false. The Lord of the Rings is Sauron, period. Possessing The One does not make you the lord, but rather just another slave of Sauron’s.

Don’t want to blow your mind, but the titular two towers are Orthanc and Barad Dur, and the King who Returns in the third book is Aragorn.

And still:

Sure, but there is only one Lorde of the rings.

This isn’t one of those “The Lord of the Rings is the friends we made along the way” things, is it?
