Alexander Downer’s not doing anything these days. She knows him.

‘”On the other hand, McGregor can’t create anything out of his first acting part. Not only can’t he act, he can’t dance, he can’t move, and worst of all, can’t deliver dialogue.”’

Jake Gyllenhaal strikes me as a weird little theatre imp (in a positive way) who also happens to be willing to be superhero buff. I’d disagree with people who say he doesn’t have charisma, but it’s a more malovelent, mischievous charisma - his intensity in films like Zodiac or Nightcrawler is amazing, and then on the…

This is a show that I wouldn’t have had on my radar at all, were it not for the reviews here.

“This April, it is better to scargive than to scarreceive!”

“Scargiver.”

I’m loving watching Néstor Carbonell get to play so against type. All foul-mouthed and bushy and ragged. He’s usually straight-laced LEO’s or politicians.

The cut-for-time sketch might have been the funniest part of the show. A shame it didn’t air:

I never played the game (don’t play ‘em, I’m old). And when I think of Borderlands I think of Terri Windling’s seris of Borderland novels. So I’m not the target audience but... This looks like it could be good.

“Who is that? She looks like Cate Blanchett, but Cate Blanchett isn’t gonna star in...well damn.”

Yeah Kang’s “want” never made any sense even though 90% of his dialogue in Loki and Ant-Man 3 was exposition about time travel and timelines and multiverses.

I think that’s always been Kang’s problem. Conquering an infinite multiverse always seems to get really convoluted, as the writing can go in many directions. Doom is generally motivated by selfish advancement, but that can include doing good things if it means stopping a villain that could threaten him. Hopefully the…

Finally, someone made the Tank Girl movie I’ve been waiting three decades for!!!

I think part of the problem is that Kang’s goal is a little hard to grasp. Thanos wanted to wipe out half of all life because there’s too much life for the universe to sustain. Inherently dumb plan, but understandable. Kang wants to conquer the multiverse to... stop other Kangs and maintain the integrity of the…

There’s also the fact that incel-basement dwelling man babies are a large vocal chunk of the superhero fandom and they get really upset by women entering what they perceive as “their space”. Which is just total bullshit. This is my least favourite part of liking these films. A section of the fans just make it really…

Not that worried about Sony’s television department making Marvel shows because these shows are produced by Lord and Miller and Sony’s television department is quite competent. From Breaking Bad to The Crown to The Boys. But Sony’s live-action film division is where the Marvel problem lies. Sony’s film studio just…

Spiders on trampolines?

Lot of truth to that. Not much international interest in American-themed dance movies when India, China, countries in Europe are great at their own dance flicks. 

Answer: TV has taken over the genre.

No mention of LaLa Land from 2016? OK. But it was exactly the type of movie this post talks about. Although announced as Best Picture, then corrected, it should have won that year. This genre of picture is sorely missed.
