The problem is that the dumb shit often outweighs the good stuff. That was one of the reasons I stopped watching.

While I enjoy For All Mankind, let’s also be honest: it’s a soap opera that isn’t afraid to lean into some of the worst/best parts of being a soap opera. And characters routinely do such dumb shit that in the real world they’d be shitcanned in a heartbeat.

Many great films of the past included intermissions when the movie length stretched past 2 hours. Somehow the directors of those great films found it possible to allow a break for an intermission in those films. If David Lean can find an appropriate place to pause Lawrence of Arabia, Scorsese should be able to figure…

Just because tavern style is more common, doesn’t mean Chicagoans don’t eat deep dish.  That’s just as stupid.

Saying that deep dish is strongly associated with Chicago is not the same as saying that Chicagoans all eat deep dish pizza. Additionally, the reference in the article above links to an article that reiterates this distinction.

The animation style is absolutely the orginal animated show, but they are referring to tone of comedy rather than animation style.

I think I can now say I’m not enjoying these much. Lower Decks finds a very tricky balance between cutting humour, continuity, and self depreciation while still staying wholesome and heart warming. This isn’t even trying to do that and just feels like any bad star trek parody.

Agreed, I think the Sealab comparisons are less about the animation style, and more about the absurdist vibes that are prevalent in Sealab 2021.

Can’t believe you’re introducing Turtle Chips and skipping their best flavors. #1 - Sweet Corn. I think this might be the OG flavor. If you like corn, this flavor is awesome. Next is Chili Lime. It’s not like Flamin’ Hot. But it’s got a subtle heat and nice sourness. The Truffle flavor is too sweet and has no truffle…

Green Lantern is my all time favorite hero from as long as I can remember (which is longer than I care to admit) and the Green Lantern movie just broke my heart.

Please ignore “Neville” and keep it in the greys.

I assume like most people, if there was a $1.50 delivery/convenience fee and then tip, sure, that’s fine. But an $11 delivery fee on top of tip for a $13 plate of pasta from the place down the street seems insane.

Should have had Kirk talk through all his songs.

You haven’t heard K-pop until you’ve heard it in the original Klingon.

No. Especially now with prices the way they are, I will absolutely browse the store to see if any items I may need in the near future but are not presently on my list are on sale currently.

My first exposure to the trolley problem was in the season two episode of The Good Place that shares its name. Ostensibly a comedy, The Good Place was interesting in its first season before morphing into a self-serious and needlessly confusing mess. If I could, I’d divert the trolley to kill the version of me who…

I’m deleting your rule. Since I don’t want to eat the exact same thing every day of my life, I will aggressively browse the produce, meat and bakery sections to see what looks fresh and good and which seasonal products are available, and then happily browse aisles looking for new and interesting products I’d like to…

what? I go to the store with a couple specific needs in mind, then meander through stoned to see if there is anything else that catches my eye. Lol do you want me to make a mapquest-style route for each trip to the grocery store? 

Yeah, it just got better and better, and ended on a good note.  The author’s tastes are definitely sus.

All suspect given the author doesn’t care for “The Good Place” after S1.
