Wow it’s almost like someone tried to turn their life around _13_ years ago and then was murdered by civil servants with no trial.

Everybody’s biting Roger Ebert:

You know who has hands? The Devil. And he uses them to hold things.

So Pelosi should have lectured the CBC on the ownership of black culture?

The optics of white people lecturing black people about racial sensitivity are pretty bad too, though.

Dear The Movies,

“Well, you see Timmy, sometimes life is just a cruel, unfathomable joke, and our existence on this bleak earth serves only as the hollow punchline for an inhumane God’s vile amusement. Do you want some more popcorn?”

nothing in the bill calls for a reduction in police department budgets.

God, this sounds self-absorbed. I really don’t need to see/hear/read another celebrity relive their history of mental health issues on the public stage so they can “move on.” I’m not unsympathetic but I’ve personally experienced the living hell of being the loved one of several people with profound mental health…

I like the part where a shirtless Bill Burr has a fistfight with Harrison Ford next to a running propeller plane.

I get the feeling that a pandemic-related straight to video release is exactly the kind of exit strategy the studio was praying for when they first saw this.

I remain irritated at at these continued attempts to make Pete Davidson into A Thing, but I was hoping at least he’d be funny in an Apatow movie.

I still don’t get what people see in Pete Davidson. But I’ve admittedly seen very little of his work. Does anyone have a sketch or stand-up clip of his that they’ve seen and found funny that they could recommend?

Adoption can be a wonderful thing, no doubt. But it can also be incredibly fraught and expensive, it’s not the point of the movie and it’s really insensitive to say to people who are struggling with infertility.

The greatest moment in Up is at the climax, when Carl discovers the scrapbook Ellie kept of their life together and her exhortation for him to keep going without her. That just destroys me, every time. Carl throwing out all of the furniture so that he can keep going is maybe my favorite thing in the whole Pixar oeuvre.

The heartbreak of realising you're unable to create a life with the person you love is not the same as simply "I want to raise a child". 

Not everyone wants to adopt, and it’s not a simple or easy thing for most people. Please don’t ever say this to a real-life couple dealing with infertility.

I consider this the perfect example of *not* “fridging” a character. Carl’s connection to his late wife and their thwarted dreams is necessary background for the plot of the movie - a lesser film would have *told* us about it, but Pixar instead opted to *show* the hell out of it and communicate a lifetime’s worth of…

Pixar has made plenty of good movies since Up, but I still think Up is their magnum opus that they've yet to surpass.

But I’m a cheerleader showed me a film where the gay people were allowed to be happy and witty and funny and could be the butt of the joke and still the victors.
