Off-topic maybe, but I found it terrifically refreshing for the disaster genre that the hero of SKYSCRAPER -wasn’t- an obsessed dude who’d alienated his family by being good at his job.

Otis not being particularly evil himself is consistent with the Donner films. It looks like we’ll see the softer side of Miss Tessmacher as well-- if we’re lucky she’ll steal a kiss.

Red Daughter tasting her first Choco was everything.

The photo-booth kill in BEST SELLER is an all-timer.

She’ll always be Dubby to me.

OK, that checks out. But did we ever see her interact with James until he became CEO?

I’d forgive this episode a lot if they could have shown more of the riot than one TV spot of a looter and one burning storefront.

Well except for the Red Daughter subplot, which has been spinning wheels since this season started.

It does beg the question of how Lex knew to place Eve at Catco before Lena got involved there.

“You got all that out of ‘Apple Man’?”

Hey, the Bronze booked Aimee Mann so they’re OK by me.

RETURN THE APP.

Gilliam’s justification for casting little people as the Bandits was to keep the film’s POV at Kevin’s eye level. If you notice, the camera is almost always looking up at the tall people.

True, it isn’t about the heist going wrong (even though it eventually does). But it is a pretty darn clever plan.

I’ll never listen to “Do the Bartman” the same way again.

Isn’t GOLDFINGER the granddaddy of all ‘the loot’s too big to move’ heist movies?

Chicks dig the car.

You just wait. The New Yorker will sic Anthony Lane on this and he’ll do his usual insufferable “we all hate superheroes so why is there another movie about them” schtick

Johnny LaRue’s crane shot fiasco (inspired by the real show’s actual crane shot fiasco) became a part of the show’s continuity, climaxing with the Christmas Special and a remarkable drunken monologue for LaRue, improvised by Candy lying on an authentically freezing Edmonton sidewalk. It’s an amazing watch.

“Was it a stand-alone hit or more of a book number?”
