I still don’t buy it, tbh. The characters might occasionally point out how awful Gina is, but they still hang out with her after work, help her out when she needs help, listen to her when she insults them, and invited her to Jack and Amy’s wedding (even though she planned on wearing a full wedding dress). She is…

I think one main criticism is that it was not in the original Ghostbusters’ universe. They could’ve easily made the film in the same continuity - they even mention “franchise opportunities” in the original. There was no need to remake the movie and not have it in the same timeline. Plus, there were even cameos from…

Are we really giving Paul Feig credit for all of Freaks and Geeks now?

A lovely and nuanced article, but I do think you’re being rather disingenuous by placing so much ill-will against the 2016 film at the hands of the sexists. Yes, there were some horribly misogynistic trolls who decried it and its cast from well before the film’s release and never shut up about it (including President…

Politics Corner - Please Don’t Clap Too Loud edition. This is the absolute wrong time for Democratic lawmakers to take a victory lap, and they get that. It would alienate people, in advance of a new fight brewing in less than a month.

I loved the “Niednagel” Easter egg that felt like it was especially for Good Place Podcast listeners.

Also, Chidi screaming, “As I was saying before I saw the TIME KNIFE!” is great. WJH’s timing, inflection and surprisingly jacked body are secret MVP’s on a show full of MVP’s.

Say what you will about him, Reitman’s career has mostly been picking scripts up out of the wholly original pile, sometimes to his great detriment. This is his first franchise attempt, and he’s more convincing than most at arguing that it’s not just a mercenary money grab for him.

Alan Moore releases statement saying he fucking hates it.

Yeah I get mad when people say nice things to me, too.

You just have to tell them to have a curséd day in response. That’ll balance it out.

He seems to lean a little to heavy into his religious stuff. I mean if he’s not actively hurting people cool whatever, but it’s like someone saying “Have a blessed day”. To which in my head I think- ok freak I’ll try to avoid you from now on.

What I learned from this article is that most of the people in charge of the comedy world probably don’t know the details of what CK did, either because they couldn’t bother to read the stories or because they willfully chose to ignore it. It’s a lot easier to forgive someone when all you know is vague details about…

All of the props to Wende for being so open about her decision-making.

Thank you, Wende.

guess you forgot to invite me to that meeting, The Last Jedi is the most fun I’ve had with a Star Wars movie since the original trilogy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There is nothing more criminal than wanting to look at the secondary sexual characteristics of the opposite sex. Its so god damned problematic. Could you imagine the violence that could result from a straight, probably white man looking at this 3d model? Im sorry, i have to vomit now. 

This just tells us that the royalty of the Mushroom Kingdom are really eldritch horrors, and the void is just our inability to process their true forms.

lol, his apology where he didn’t apologize was a sincere one.

lol. the guy in a bad place who is in that bad place because he sexually harassed women and lied is now being bullied.

lol. he did lie about it like every other scumbag for years until there was a story that came out about it.

lol

My favorite clip show remains to be the one Community did that was made up of all scenes we'd never seen before.

Arrow’s 100th episode was a lot better, probably because that show had a lot more to celebrate. But I still liked it, even if it just reminded me how much of The Flash’s run has been squandered potential.
