Kind of a big spoiler in one of those photos.

The media?

The Trump/GOP excuses brigade is still at work, I see

I’m still unclear whether the people in the opening credits died. The skies turned red to signal impending doom, just as they did on Earth-1. The only world we actually saw destroyed was Earth X.

Come on: The only Star Wars bomb was Solo.

As someone who has been collecting these figures and eagerly awaited the Hammond figure, I hope there is a special place reserved in hell for the Mattel executives who decided to make this a Comic-Con exclusive. Now I will have to decide whether I want to pony up $300 or more for one of these on Ebay. (Probably not.)

The main problem here is riffing on fantasy tropes isn’t exactly an original idea. While I’m sure this will be better than Shrek, it does feel like Pixar is riding on Dreamworks’ coattails. I think I would have rather they gave us a straight-up fantasy movie, or done something like Onward but using a non-western…

There is deeper political mischief than your story implies. Republicans in Congress, while shouting about a “war on coal,” last year let expire a tax on coal production used to generate revenue for the federal black lung disability fund for miners.

You know how in online arguments about global warming, you will encounter denialists who say “species go extinct all the time” or “the climate has changed many times in the past”? The book is a perfect reponse, showing how our…

It’s rare that Egyptology and archaeology mix.

Ducks are dinosaurs, so basically your headline is saying that a dinosaur was part dinosaur and part dinosaur.

First thing I thought of. It one of the episodes from the rebooted Outer Limits.

So much for physics.

I want a reaction trailer from the Porg.

Hopefully they will leave out the gay-bashing. The movie hasn’t aged well in that regard.

I had heard of these before and thought they were fake. So this is kind of surprising. Cool news.

Do Lumiere and Cogworth devour souls in this version? Because they look like they eat souls.

And what other kinds of life are there? There are physical and chemical constraints on what can develop into life.

I think they should have stuck with Iron Maiden.

No meat eating dinosaurs, which is probably wise as they would devour the competition.
