Why would I tell a story about criticizing stories?  I’d just cut out the middle man.  

And yet, Lucas was able to make a much more enjoyable and cohesive story than Disney did. 

Pete Buttigieg called one black man instead of addressing Black America.

You fell for his sneaky nine-tailed fox tricks, Michael. Now, he's going to eat all the black folks' livers and leave your corpses twitching and jerking as the souls leave to wander the earth forever with their grudges.

there is nothing about this show that makes me want to watch it. 

This show just feels like a video game. Start at point A and learn something, then go fight to get to point B and repeat.

I love baby yoda but it’s just a bunch of pew pew pew

Why the fuck do you want camera running 120fps. It looked just as much like shit when Jackson tried to bump it to 28 or whatever the fuck it was. The number going up didn’t make an improvement.

Vertical monopolies aren’t known for reducing prices or improving service. 

It’s not the fox’s fault that the chicken coop wasn’t locked?

Oh no, it has infected you too!

Remember when AV Club comments weren’t about the syntax and grammar of the piece and were actually thoughtful about the piece’s subject?

I’ll say it before and I’ll say it again: Joker is basically Threw It On The Ground but played entirely straight.

You got one thing right: they’re basically big budget Friday the 13th level films and their shitty sequels. 

Bt if all it does is challenge you to remember what happened in a prior movie, how is that unprecedented? Hell, how is that even a challenge? The argument comes down to movies vs films, and conflating shitty mcu movies to films because they have an ongoing thread is such a feeble argument. 

Also the person tweeting who said “Dan didn’t see the value of other people’s reactions” is a dumb way to interpret anything they said. No writer and very few TV shows listen to what fans are saying and change course. They tell the story they want to tell how they want to tell it. Studios might give notes, but shows…

Not paying attention to what fans think is a good thing. Fan service is the scourge of 21st century art.

“Why isn’t there an International Men’s Day! Oh...there is? Well I still intend to maintain my indignation at International Women’s Day.”

Im not saying the situations are similar, I'm saying that when you can see the writings on the wall, you don't have to wait and see.

Instead of making a movie about the Joker’s origins, they should make one out of that great animated series episode — Joker’s Favor. It’s about a regular guy becoming an object of obsession for the Joker. We don’t need a Joker origin story -- just an innovative Joker story. A great episode and thinks it has a lot more…

He didn’t say there was no difference whatsoever, he was drawing a humorous comparison between their behaviors vis-a-vis interviews.
