Am I the only one completely perplexed by this fucking Disney madness? They were stories we watched as children. Some of them SUPER fucked up. I loved it when I was a kid, I recognize it now, but I guess I don't see how romanticizing it….. is fun? There are grown adults that I know that are totally obsessed with the…

Halt, Citizen, your fertlizer doesn't fix enough nitrogen in the soil....

Escape from Detroit anyone? Where's Snake Plisskin?

No word yet on how the various toxic heavy metals and other detritus from the manufacturing industries will create the 100ft mutant man-eating asparagus.

Oh look. Can't see it in Chicago. Like always. #eastcoastbias.

"Hello, yes? I'd like to complain about this human head. I bought it last week."
"Yes sir, what seems to be the problem? It's not dead, is it?"
"No, still alive, the problem is he won't shut up."
"Oh dear, what's he going on about?"
"Oh, the usual, what happened to me, why am I upside-down, could I get a sandwich? On…

"Hey, I found this lid on the ground. Just sayin'..."

I saw something similar on McSweeney's a few years ago.

Boromir: "One does not simply WALK into Mordor."

I'm starting to get the feeling that Esther's a little bit of a pyromaniac.

if it wasn't horribly un-pc I would say that I would love you for noticing that. I was having a discussion that if Karl Urban bailed on star trek they should have Misha do the third movie.

Shh, sshh, it's ok Sunnyside, they are only tiny because they are just photographs on a screen.

THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR ME.

I have the same reaction. People (who know me) will say "I can't believe YOU don't like that show." - which gets me even more steamed about it.

I've read the script. It is, in fact, an uneasy combination of touchy-feely romance and hard sci-fi (in which both characters have to save the ship from further malfunction). A sci-fi-inclined director like Alfonso Cuaron or Duncan Jones could save it; if they get somebody whose background is in rom-coms, that'd be…

I don't get those shows either! Oh well, if we can shunt our weird need to feel superior to other human beings to our television sets perhaps we can quarantine it to a leisure activity.

my problem with it is that the female nudity that we're becoming insensitized to is such a narrow definition of what is sexy, so it's spreading an unrealistic beauty standard at the same time

This reminds me of how I feel about bras - it's all "push up bras for your too small breasts" and "minimizer bras for your too big breasts". There is no ok breast size, gotta either push 'em up or flatten 'em down.

you just reminded me how much i fucking hate that criticism of zooey deschanel. i agree with her, wearing a peter pan collar doesn't invalidate her feminism, jfc.

So when Carly Rae Jepsen and Zooey Deschanel dress kinda demurely, they're infantilizing themselves and therefore Part Of The Problem, but when Miley and Rihanna get nearly-naked, they're objectifying themselves and also Part Of The Problem.
