You Got Mail and Sleepless in Seattle are bad too (I love romcoms and am a ruthless judge upon them). The difference is, if you’re white you still have superior efforts alongside their medicority. Unfortunately we don’t have an Annie Hall so you have this undue affection for a weak movie like Boomerang because simply…

It’s a bad, bad movie that is sadly loved by black people because it’s one of the few we have on this type. Similarly, the much superior yet still very flawed love jones which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. We revere it, but it’s also not that good. I love the idea of love jones, I love the look of it—-and…

I love her and her leading role in a B-movie action franchise is long overdue, but honestly they won’t care. If this franchise can survive the loss of Paul Walker is can survive her loss. After all, she’s not even in the one that made it a global phenomenon: Fast Five.

Clearly this was the first show without Stephen Hill at the helm.

You can go back. That horrible husband and wife team is long gone.

Seriously? We’re not talking about how this guy’s name is “Cash Freeman!?!”

So this means my beloved Misfit Shine is perfect, right?

Really? You’re gonna do Vader is Black and not post the best thing about Chasing Amy? “What’s a nubian?”

That it gave birth to this cover is all the justification it needs:

Every year someone tries to do this and every year the prediction fails. I mean did anyone think we’d be listening to The Chainsmokers’ “Closer” all last summer?

If “no one” saw it then it’s unlikely it would be referenced in this video now would it?

It seems odd not to acknowledge a clear pop culture reference, given how prevalent they are in hip-hop videos. I guess a discussion of the “California Love” video with Tupac and Dre shouldn’t mention The Road Warrior either.

No mention that this is partially inspired by the interrogation scene from the awful The Day The Earth Stood Still remake with Keanu Reeves?

But where Priest’s Crew spent significant time focusing on the past and the largely untold story of the original, black Captain America

Shit. I totally miss you singled out POC. As a POC geek I have to concur that’s some racist ass bullshit on your part. Especially given the clear and open racism on display whenever even the most non-impactful character is given a different ethic background.

While I’m not denying the surprising number of close-minded assholes amongst people who spend their time imagining the impossible I think expectations have something to do with it. Because they imagine things like superheroes and super computers and galaxy spanning adventures you expect geeks and nerds to be better…

Came here to post this if no one else had!

When I look at the female celebrities who seems to generate an inordinate amount of dislike I see a common factor in that they like themselves and refuse to pretend not to. JLo likes herself. Lea Michele likes herself. Anne Hathaway likes herself. There’s none of this “Oh, I’m such a dork. I’m just like everyone…

Absolutely. And they’ll use the fact Iron Fist actually did well.

Ahem...
