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…

The Neverwhen is the best example of how Big Finish was able to bring the madness of the Time War to life. No way could TV have done that story justice.

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.

Sometimes when we try to be a good person and champion our noble ideals, we overheat, burst into flames and roll over a cliff. It happens.

Can confirm: Big Finish is fucking brilliant! I’ve been buying the range pretty much since Day 1, well before the show came back - and the work they’ve done is all top-shelf. Redeem Seven? Done. Flesh out Six’s character? Done! Give Nyssa some good stories? Done, and done. Hell, they even had Adric come back and make…

Damn, pretty good impression of an eighteen year old who just had their first college class in feminist theory there. Congratulations!

Counterpoint: go fuck yourself with a rusty razor.

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.

A local theatre company did it in my city last summer, and I was very, very happy I got to see it live, even if on a smaller scale than what would’ve been possible on Broadway with a Disney-backed budget.

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.

Prior to the two Master story, I had hoped Moffat would do a multi-Master story with 4-5 Masters. I imagined it would be the opposite of multi-Doctor stories, with the Master succeeding to finally beat the Doctor, then failing in the end as one of his other selves sabotages him because he/she wants to be the one to…

My suspicion is this story was written or intended for Hurt, but when he past, it was redone for McGann
