I think I finally figured out what has been frustrating me about Mandalorian almost since the beginning, but especially these last two seasons (Boba Fett and Mando season 3). The story always SEEMS to have a logical next step. Even if we as an audience can’t specifically name what it is we are expecting, there’s an…

LOL who are their fans saying this?? these guys may be “indie darlings” but first they were acclaimed COMMERCIAL directors. You know, the art form that only exists to sell product. Hilarious that people are giving them shit for selling out. 

I was over him years ago. I followed him on Instagram because, you know, he seemed fun or whatever. But every post was either about his tequila or about his bodybuilding (honestly, how does he even wipe his butt?), and he was just super boring and, well, full of himself. I know it’s Instagram, and truthfully I never…

Not even Logan is, really. One of my favorite scenes of the series is Stewy, a seeming dolt, not only no-selling Logan’s entire schtick but being utterly bored with it because he knows only the promise of more money matters at this point. It really made me flip my perspective on Logan as someone who is simply a…

Honestly, it’s working better on tv anyway

I will go to bad for Lightyear. It wasn’t great but it’s better than a lot of family movies. Puss in Boots is a recent example of something with a lot of legs. It didn’t blow up any week at the box office but it was on the top ten for months.

For years, people have been clamoring for Filoni to be the Star Wars Kevin Feige, but the more we see, the more control he’s given, the less I like Star Wars.

Lol I literally did not think online contrarian culture could possibly produce someone who was pro-Ticketmaster.

Well. I kind of liked the episode and thought Barsanti’s take was fine.

“It was a really tough choice, but ultimately I went with my gut and chose myself.”

I’ve long felt like I’ve been marooned on an island in the Star Wars fandom for not liking the Filoni method of storytelling. For those playing along at home, that’s (1) find something you like that someone else already did, (2) have your own characters repeat it (often while lifting entire lines of dialog verbatim),…

Plot twist - it wasn’t a stolen script, it was just the result of plugging ‘Antman Marvel Sequel’ into ChatGPT, and it just happened to match word-for-word.

Yeah, even though she’s great in EEAAO, I don’t even really understand why she was nominated. As the article notes, Hsu was better than her in the same film. I’d’ve replaced her with Lashana Lynch and given the award to Hsu anyway.

Plus Clint Eastwood (small part in J. Edgar).

Even crazier/more impressive feat over the last 23 years?

He is smart to sell now. His music is not gonna age like Fleetwood Macs or Michael Jacksons.

“I thought that was good stuff, you know? And so I was just despondent, and I was really sad about it.”

Hard to make the case that critics resent them when the RT scores are still so high for most of the Marvel movies. 

There are lots of him, one of the hims created the Time Bureau but didn’t seem to have any specific powers himself, he can shoot energy beams if he has his special chair, and he can time travel if he has his special chair, which is only really useful if he goes to a period in time where his chair’s technology is more…
