Identifying items or creatures and basic parts of their anatomy is a machine learning process that I’m very interested in for photography; most of today’s camera makers have been using machine learning to have the camera identify objects in the scene, and even parts of those objects you’d want to focus on. It makes

PS - Thanks for the Dances With Wolves comparison - that at least gives me an idea of the framework of the story. :)

Yeah that’s probably me. I traveled for work a lot around this time, and didn’t spend much time in movie theaters.  I’m not a superhero film sort of person.  I think the first time I went to a movie theater for the spectacle since I was in college was Fury Road.

I’ll have to go back and find that Treehouse of Horror episode. Judging by when Avatar came out, it’s almost certainly while I was checked out, though.

Just go see The Amy Winehouse Experience if they ever tour near you.  They’re fantastic.

Yeah, I graduated college in 2004. I mostly stuck to college/indie rock in this period, and while I rarely listened to pop radio, she got some crossover on college stations and some indie rock spaces as something out of the ordinary in the pop world - perhaps part of the indie pop genre that was just starting to be a

Why not both? 

The recut, restored, and updated effects really changed my opinion of ST:TMP.  Compared to the original cut, they added back parts of scenes that added context, and you could actually get a sense of the size of V’ger, and the movie works way better, even though it’s longer.  I think the work done to improve the movie

The way I look at it is this: There are movies/TV/books I have never actually consumed, but that I basically know the plot to, or certain scenes I’m familiar with, due to being referenced or parodied in other media. The Simpsons, Futurama, and Family Guy were responsible for so much of this, for instance, I’ve seen

Yeah, I can deal with the clickbait as long as there’s actual good content, too.

I don’t know if she could do the accent, but Aubrey Plaza as Lara Croft would slay.

That started before Netflix.  My understanding is that studios didn’t think comedies were earning enough in the theaters to bother with.

Agreed!  Definitely stoked to have you back, Jesse!

That’s right!  I somehow didn’t put two and two together, but now I recognize the name.  

Yeah, he frequently talks about parts he won’t take and generally seems like his opinion of himself is not in line with Hollywood’s opinion of him.  

Another great long form article, what a treat on a Friday. Thank you for this Cindy!

I just want to mention how much I appreciate long form articles like this.  This is what I came to AV Club for… that, and reviews of *good* shows, not reality TV or re-retweets.

I have a feeling Paramount isn’t renewing anything until after the sale.  So I’m holding out hope there could be more later.

Right?  I’d be willing to try just about anything at that point.

Personally, I prefer TV series with decent budgets for adaptations of novel series.  I don’t think The Expanse would have held up well with each book cut down to a 2-3 hour movie.
