Why is any of this an issue in cartoons? I get it with stereotypes, but they wouldn’t stop being stereotypes because of the performer. They’re acting.

VR? Seems like a natural fit for VR.

This must be really embarassing for you, Britt, but I think you meant to put “It’s a brilliant attack against white liberals too oblivious of their own advantages to see that their selfless actions are often foolish and misguided, and also frequently does more harm than good.”. I mean, that’s the AV Club’s quote from…

There’s a bunch of different theories about why ‘white’ became ‘good’ and ‘black’ became ‘bad’. One of the theoretical origins is the old notion that white was a lack of colour, ie. pure (hence white dresses for a bride...), while black was the exact opposite, containing all the colours and therefore being impure,…

Gunn apologised for it when he was caught the first time.

This was an absolute delight. More please.

*American sitcom.

Love Crystal Maze. I got to play the London one a few years ago, and I hope to be able to go again at some point (when everything is, you know, slightly less fucked). It really did feel like being in the TV show.

It seems pretty weird that Take Manhattan and From Space are the only films missing from Disney+ - a very basic search hasn’t thrown up why those two are separate, but those two also seem to be left out of DVD boxsets of the other films and can be purchased together, so they’re presumably dealt with by a separate…

This better not awaken anything in me...

I love Gus, and I like Lydia, but their scenes together (and most of Gus’, in fact) come across a bit too ‘Gandalf investigating the Necromancer’. Sure, it’s ‘where they were’ and ‘how x and y happened’, but it’s not a lot more than that.

Wonderful! Just in time for third seasons of Agent Carter and Galavant!

I think I would have preferred him going to prison and finding redemption. The final product just didn’t feel like it accomplished anything, besides getting the cast back, because he ends where we’d pretty much assumed he would from the end of the show. He’s free - that was his final moment of the series, and it’s the…

I’ve spent several minutes trying to come up with a leak/leek pun that would work in written form. I have failed.

Absolutely. I was on the binge train back when Netflix dropped Arrested Development Season 4 in one go; I was thrilled about that. 8 hours of a great sitcom in one go! Awesome!

Honestly, yeah, I get you - life, particularly as a kid, is easiest when you can be yourself and meet others partway. A few friends of mine introduced (mid-20s me) to Daria a few years ago... and it really bothered me how she seemed to be willfully pushing people away because they were ‘popular’, or even just not way…

Return of Jafar is not great, but it’s not completely devoid of virtues- Iago has a very good villain-hero arc (those are tricky to master without changing the personality; Iago is still Iago by the end, but he’s on the heroes’ side), and although no-one else gets an arc they’re all still pretty strongly the…

Admittedly, season 3 has probably the best season finale of the show’s run (so far). I guess it’s a matter of taste/priority, since for me the subpar ending is easily forgotten when thinking about AIDA’s story.

It was just a rushed final episode (the only time pacing was an issue throughout the phenomenal season 4; they should have done it double length, maybe borrowing an episode from the first or second pods). If she’d had a ten minute fight with Ghost Rider Coulson instead of a five minute fight it would have been a more…

I think you’re forgetting AIDA/Ophelia, absolutely the best MCU villain to date.
