Derp. I just saw your message above. Melbourne is a little too far from Atlanta, unfortunately. Sad trombone.

It's only a 7 year age difference. Milo would've made it his friend's dad or something.

I am incredibly jealous.

The age gap isn't unimportant but it's worth pointing out that the younger Elio is knowledgeable and serious beyond his years and older Oliver is initially resistant because of the age gap, specifically saying it would be wrong of him.

It might be my overall favorite book and the movie looks like a great adaptation.

The book destroyed me. It's good to know that I won't survive past Thanksgiving weekend.

I'm still trying to process it but I wasn't disappointed by it. The tonal/atmospheric shift for a lot of it was jarring but many of the scenes actually in Twin Peaks had that same feel. I think it just reinforces the idea that Twin Peaks kinda exists separately from the rest of the world.The bar scene towards the end

Sounds interesting! Apparently it's the first in a series…

I'm not even sure it's about the right/left distinction that this point. Trump represents even fewer of the traditional conservative ideals than the Republican party has at least pretended to care about for the past few decades.

Yeah, I read that his conservative media star has been steadily fading for several years now and BOOM he's suddenly sorry and wants everyone to get along.

I think I read that his ratings (or whatever metrics measure him now) have been steadily going down over the past few years so this may have also been a necessary rebranding. This is probably the easier route than participating in the arms race of crazy that is the right-wing media.

The Neon Demon was such a gorgeous, bizarre fever dream. I was completely enthralled by it.

That wouldn't stop most people from complaining about it, anyway

No one is arguing that - in principle - Drag Race doesn't deserve to be considered for this list besides you.

I didn't call you a bigot; I called you out because you dismissed even acknowledging someone from Drag Race as though there isn't any value to drag performance. You didn't have to complain about Drag Race's inclusion because drag isn't your thing. A LOT of the comments on the post are about performances that were left

Reality tv isn't a monolith and most reality tv is actually scripted.

So how do we make you queen?

He had scheduling conflicts with a play. I would kill for a spinoff series about his wacky misadventures in Egypt, though. If they were ever going to make a tv version of The Mummy…

The scripts really should be used in screenwriting courses for how to structure episodes and balance episodic and serialized narratives.within episodes.

I think I read that it was supposed to be Dr. Moreau originally but they couldn't get the rights in time. It still seems like a big indication it wasn't REALLY supposed to end so soon.
