Boy, I’m just so tired of all this traffic. I just can’t wait to get Out of Africa.

But....but in your analogy, the “serial rapist” is analogous to the “video game controller”? Like, the controller did not shoot anyone. It would be more akin to a newspaper running a story saying “SERIAL STABBER LOOSE IN YOUR TOWN” and then running a picture of a very popular brand of knife. Which seems like a rather…

Gilliam may not have assaulted anyone, or directly harassed them. But his comments reveal a lack of empathy for those women who *were* victims of such crimes. He even goes as far as implying they are partially to blame for the assaults that happened to them.

Can we also talk about the quality of the final lipsynch for a second? Two things stood out:

The games constantly focus on how traumatic everything is for Lara but how she pulls on through and kicks ass.

Ok so if that’s the alternate ending, then how did Lena escape the lighthouse in that scenario? In the cinema release, Lena realizes the double is copying her every movement, and only seems to care about keeping her in the lighthouse (presumably to finish the copying process, which seems much less intense than the…

The tattoo also shows up on Anya’s arm, indicating that even if we assume that Lena & Kane got matching tattoos (possible, but not likely), we have to conclude that the Shimmer (it feels so weird to not call it Area X) “refracted” the tattoo onto Anya as well.

Real talk: I almost fell out of my chair when “Opus No. 1 by Tim Carleton” came on (#2 on the playlist) because THAT IS THE MUSIC THAT PLAYS WHEN I AM ON HOLD AT WORK.

You can add “Cadfael” to your list of clergy members. He was a, and I quote, “Welsh Benedictine monk living at the Abbey of St Peter and St Paul, in Shrewsbury, western England, in the first half of the 12th century.” He solved mysteries using only whatever knowledge was available at the time, and the series is known…

So in response to the last question, I don’t think the issue is whether or not the “timeline” or parallel Earth still exists. I think what matters is (a) did you believe it was real, and (b) do you still remember it.

My boyfriend and I love these. Please never stop!

Mark Duplass excels at playing charming assholes (see: The League, Safety Not Guaranteed).

Did they steal that joke from Monkey Island 3: The Curse of Monkey Island?

Started watching this when it premiered, and was shocked at how cheesy it was. Survived up until the last third of the second season and then just. could. not. do. it. anymore.

Tom Riddle’s childhood was relevant to Voldemort’s character, so we got numerous glimpses of it.

Yeah but what people are saying is that if you, an organization who hands out awards in a certain field, can choose between two (0r more) candidates, and your choice is between someone who “did things worthy of celebration [but] also did shitty things” and someone who “did things worth of celebration and did NOT do…

...Thank...you?

But, like, why? Ok, so Grindelwald and Dumbledore had a relationship years prior, but now it’s over, and Grindelwald is a dark wizard and a criminal. How would it NOT be interesting to see a dark wizard in an strange but potentially loving relationship with someone? Regardless of whether that person was a man or a…

Actually, Yates starts his quote by saying they fell in love with each other’s ideas, and ideologies. Oh and also “each other.” He also said that the movie will “not explicitly” reference Dumbledore’s sexuality. I feel like if I was describing a romance between a man and a woman, I would almost never characterize it…

It’s straightwashing because we are delving into a character’s backstory, and it’s a character who has been established, in what basically amounts to marginalia, as gay. I can think of no other film series or TV show that, when giving us flashbacks to a character’s life, would avoid showing us their lovelife because…
