Edebiri chimed with this takeaway, in case you need self-control motivation while pressing play: “Nobody is forcing you to watch it all at the same time. You can pace yourself. I find myself with shows releasing weekly sometimes, I wait until the end and pace it out. You have autonomy as a viewer.”

The more I watch this show, the less I like it. The extreme gore, violence, and nudity has gotten dull and the satire is smack you across the face obnoxious (I agree with what they’re lampooning and I’ve seen Kripke’s comments about people somehow confusing the themes of the show but it doesn’t make it fun to watch).…

My general thoughts on the season (some of which I’ve posted before):

They kind of botched the Blood and Cheese part of this episode.

Personally was always happy Supernatural lasted as long as it did - the quality of the overarching plots did go down but they kept the main cast together and it was always fun to watch them take down monsters. Plus every season had a handful of standout episodes that were truly great.

Personally think jumping right into another huge event type movie is a mistake by Marvel. The Avengers movie of old made megabucks at least in part because there was massive hype for them. That doesn’t exist right now because the movies of late have just not done the job. A smaller scale Avengers movie that…

I enjoyed the first act of The Marvels when they were all switching with each other but the villain was very, very lackluster and dragged the movie down every time she showed up. Still better than a lot of the other MCU movies lately.

It made some sense when the console first came out because the WiiU didn’t sell much at all and there were some really good games on it like MK8 that went unnoticed. But I have been kind of disappointed in the last few years outside of their really big titles like TotK. The MK8 DLC, as an example, felt kind of lazily…

The main problem with the first season is that they were covering roughly twenty years worth of events in ten episodes. They didn’t have the time to make smaller characters feel more realized or to give moments time to feel their weight. My hope is some of those issues disappear now that the main event is upon us in…

Guessing it’s basically just that - remasters and smaller games to tide people over until Switch 2 comes out.

I could never get into the Myst games for similar reasons - I only played the original recently when the 3D remake came out. But one of my friends always tells me Riven is one of the best games he’s ever played with the puzzles feeling much more natural. His take was it was the best puzzle game with true environmental…

I am so excited for Riven and Golden Idol.

The thing I enjoyed about early seasons of GoT and the books that have been released is there aren’t really any simple characters. Every character has nuance and depth and there is time spent to explain why they are the way they are, even people who seem like outright terrible people like Cersei and Jamie.

IMO GoT started to fall off even in S5 when they completely botched the Dorne plot. There wasn’t the same commitment to carefully developing characters as there was in the earlier seasons. The stuff with the established characters was still largely good so it kind of hid it for a bit.

However, we’ll note again that Lopez’s tour was really not selling well. In fairness, nobody’s tour seems to be selling well these days.

I get the points made here but there really isn’t much point in starting an early access game for me when my backlog of games to play through is massive as-is. Hell, I still haven’t completely beaten the original Hades.

Jeremy Renner exists in the Glass Onion universe - his hot sauce is referenced in the last movie. So he may just be playing himself.

I didn’t like Dead Reckoning much at all when I first saw it - it felt like they took what should have been a single 2-2.5 hour movie and decided to stretch it into multiple installments to make more money. The villain barely got any development at all - guessing they’re saving all of that for the second half?

The cost of MI7 skyrocketed because they had to film it around a pandemic like many movies that had production underway when COVID-19 hit.

Kathryn Newton has been regularly acting in stuff for a while now (TV and movies) and a movie that grossed $9.9m this year definitely was not her breakout role. I’d argue it was Blockers or Freaky too.
