Satire, deconstruction, and grounded social commentary don’t mean a genre has burnout or fatigue, just that it’s complete. Westerns continued to be fun (Desperado, Brisco County Jr) but absolutely required satire (Blazing Saddles) and deconstruction (Butch Cassidy, Little Big Man, Unforgiven) and now we can even get ev

‘cause I’m partial to Milla rather than Kate.  (honestly I didn’t know Underworld went on & on & on ...)

Every 17 years? Hang on a second.

The American Puritan Ethic is like a cursed cultural zombie that will never die. 

I’m more curious how many AV club bloggers and Rotten Tomatoes “approved critics” are desperately trying not to take a shot of bleach right now due to how popular and acclaimed the movie was.

Folks, have you heard about this book called The Protocols of the Elders of Zion?

JT has disappointed a lot of Canadian progressives because it turns out he’s a run of the mill Liberal with all of the backroom skullduggery and shenanigans that entails. Better than the Conservative alternative but no great hope IMO.

He’s been doing a very shitty job. He never would have gotten elected, even as a backbencher MP, if not for his name. But hey, it’s not like he’s even the first Liberal prime minister this century whose place in politics was guaranteed by being the son of someone who was someone last century.

I mean, I’m not Canadian and I know nothing about their politics, but isn’t the reason he’s in a dead heat with his opponent because he’s kind of been doing a shitty job? The one Canadian I know says he’s just a clown that got elected solely on the basis of his family name.

Justin’s true character is not the handsome shiny liberal he would have us believe. This fall has been coming for quite some time. This has been seen in his policies towards indigenous peoples for a while now. Google his environmentalist ‘policies’, or his complete reversals of his own words in his executive

I’m not sure I’d want to see Intergluteal Cleft opening for anyone.

Fuck those fucking fuckers.

Disney doesn’t want to compete against itself, which means that the release schedule of Disney, Lucasfilm, Marvel, Pixar, Fox all must be accounted for now - assuming no one else makes any big films in the future.

7 years seemed unrealistically short.  They were acting like it was closer to 15 years, which would make more sense given everything that happened in their relationship.

The Orville works when I can forget it stars a billionaire living out his fantasy. When he dates a younger version of his ex-girlfriend, that becomes difficult.

Top of Episode Kelly: “Yo! I used to get SO drunk y’all!”
Later in Episode Kelly: “Yo! Don’t tell stories about the wild stuff I used to do to my subordinates who I hang out with socially and tell wild stuff stories to.”

GET. BETTER. WRITERS. And for peet’s sake if you’re going to do a “Thomas Riker” ep, then make the

It’s both- Too-clean production design, and over-lit.

Glad to see Tony Todd show up.

Hi. I don’t think you should watch a previous episode of a series to understand an episode of said series which is highly serialized

So they’re taking Nic Cages face off and putting it onto another actor’s... They should make a movie about this.
