I would argue that all of the Jay Bennett Wilco stuff is A or A+. I love Being There, Summerteeth and YHF as well as their work on the Mermaid Avenue albums.

It’s surprising that the film was actually made by the same creators of the original film (with relative autonomy) because, as you said, there is this massive disconnect from the first film.

I have a lot of fondness for The Chronicles of Riddick but I remember, when it came out, thinking, “who the hell wanted this?” Unlike Pitch Black, which was stripped and focused, it was bloated and needlessly baroque. The mythology was hard to follow, the Furyans were a confusing concept, and Colm Feore didn’t make…

Ah, OK. My bad. This article barely mentions it but talk a lot about the Sarah Lawrence incident. Thanks!.

I’m not sure what you’re referring to. The incident that is being investigated, and that is mentioned in the article, happened while he was still in college and before Catfish.

OK, if you don’t mind spoilers, then here ya go:

I love Grant Morrison’s Doom Patrol run and I’m generally fond of the Berlanti’s DC shows but this seems like a really bad fit.

Yeah, I get that the reviewer felt the need to comment on Marlo’s white privilege and how she is unaffected by the issues of POC but she does it in such a dismissive, shitty way. Motherhood is a motherfucker and that isn’t minuscule. Not for the character and not for millions of women.

I have tried to give Alien3 multiple chances to change my mind but I can’t. It’s not a good movie. The “Director’s Cut” is slow and turgid while the theatrical cut is often a confused mess and, behind both, is story that is neither engaging nor original.

They won’t, just they like they ignored her for Young Adult. Despite her Oscar, I still think she is the most underrated actor of her generation.

As somebody who saw the movie, I would say that all the triggering would happen before the *spoiler*. Basically, the entire movie, up into that point, is about Charlize Theron suffering from depression while being completely gutted by motherhood. Even for me (a single male with no kids), it was excruciating.

You’re right, Season 9 was when people started noticing a dip in quality and started talking about it all the time. It had “The Principal and the Pauper” which I think was the first Simpsons episode that people actually flat-out hated and people used to post about how much they wanted the Mike Scully era to end.

I never liked how she responded to stealing jokes which was just “you have to trust me, I don’t steal jokes.”

If you are talking per-capita income, then, yes, those are the two highest groups though that is due, in part, to their relative small percentage of the population.

I dunno. There is a solid number of Gen X’ers, like myself, who remember that show very well and with great fondness. I’m not saying it has a massive built-in audience but it does have its fans and, as I said, the premise has even greater potential to resonate today.

It’s a shame. I like Simone and, unlike a lot of reboots, it seems like the right concept at the right time.

Not really. I don’t think you understood Idiocracy.

I think this sounds horrible. Michael Patrick King is a miserable hack, the premise with a kid is awful, and I love RuPaul but, as an actor, he has never had much presence or ability. I hope this is good but severely doubt it will be.

I liked The Tree of Life but it broke me.

Me too! Personally, I think he could be the new, less finicky David Fincher
