“And the back stories and motivations and everything all seemed like they’d been plucked whole from a soap opera”

‘Silly’ Succession?

I can’t claim to have any direct insight, but from what I understand, it’s actually likely very much the opposite of Sandler desiring an easy/lazy paycheck—and contrary to that reputation (and/or the actual quality of some of his worst movies), Sandler is very involved in basically everything about his movies. And I…

Such a great cast. A fearless show, for better or worse

I can’t believe i’m saying this...but...i am intrigued by this so far. I’m glad to see that instead of a simple-”here’s the same show with all new people” they took the same story and reinvented it. Will it work? I’m still not convinced. At least now i’m interested...

It stuck the landing

Don’t forget, the Punisher shows up to take away Superman’s powers during that fight.

“People” are a fairly large group, which can contain more than one opinion.

They very much expected the West Side Story movie to not bomb horribly when booking this hosting gig. 

I like how the issue is framed as “these women pick terrible movies to be in!” and not “these men keep making terrible movies for women to be in!”

Well, according to deep Tarantino lore and internet weirdos like me, Fox Force Five MIGHT actually be Kill Bill and the events of Kill Bill are just a movie that Uma’s character from Pulp Fiction acted in.

So at the time, TV stars were typically still considered second tier to the top movie stars and top recording artists. On top of that, Hasselhoff was considered the “star” of Baywatch, and everyone else was part of what was known as an “ensemble” cast. Anderson was certainly one of the more popular female lifeguards…

they’ve had a space-’50s-diner so alien space bikers is pretty subtle in comparison. 

Man... and I thought Hawkeye didn’t really have a plot.

I think D+ shows are taking their audiences for granted.

If we expand it to oldie movie stars in general, I think RDJ would be perfect for Charlie Chaplin.

Worth pointing out that the cinematography for this ep was handled by Dean Cundy? 

Starting to feel Temuera Morrison’s teeth are distracting. Those are some chompers

A move from January to April generally would be a sign of confidence — January is a graveyard for movies.

Actually, the cartoon established that the movies were Hollywood adaptations of their “real life” adventures. It even made a joke about how none of the actors looked like them.
