Tolkien established a world, spent most of his life doing it. The stories he told were based on old European folklore, which is why there’s not many people of color in them. There are still people of color in his world, but the stories he told weren’t about them as they weren’t European meaning he wouldn’t know how to…

Ahhh, 2022, the year virtue signaling became the most popular way to market your shitty IP cash-in. 

Pyke proposed building an aircraft carrier out of his pykrete.

I mean, Rob Schneider sucks, but he’s not wrong in this instance. That was a really embarrassing/cringey moment for a comedy show.

So true. I think about that article all the time. He also had a great article when The Return was announced.

Yeah, Braff’s presence on the list kind of baffles me too. As do Ben Affleck and Brad Pitt—yes, both can be funny but they really don’t fit the role.

The lily-white cast of rich, New York yuppies

Some pretty weak choices here. It’s usually best to actually watch movies that take place at high schools before compiling such a list. Some notable omissions:

Where is Heathers? Election? smh

No mention of Edwin Cooley Vocational* from 1975's Cooley High?

Wait no Lincoln High from the Class of 1984!  What a school! They happen to hang Michael J Fox from the flag pole in this movie! Sorry for the spoilers! lol!

When I was a kid I wanted to grow up to become Eagle Bauer from ‘Rock ‘n Roll High School Forever’. Sadly, I found out that is actually not a valid career path.

#2 - Bates High School, a school with bullying so institutionalised that the protagonist burns it down
#4 - Vince Lombardi High, a school that’s basically run under a dictatorship so messed up that it, too, is razed with fire.

Cheech Marin (of Cheech & Chong) is a well known collector of Chicano art and even has a museum named after him!

Just write a fuggin' article.

The last half of the trailer leans pretty hard into “laugh at the Texas hicks” territory.

I wish the reviewer had mentioned whether he liked or disliked "The Premise", which I had high hopes for but turned out to be absolute crap, with occasional exceptions. If this is anything like that I don't want any part of this. 

It is hard overstate what a amazing star he was throughout my lifetime. He was huge when I grew up in the 70's. He will be sorely missed.

Is this ironic humor?
