Curiosity got the better of me and I had to watch. I made it about halfway through. Not terribly embarrassing, but pretty mediocre. She made a joke about constantly going on TV and saying the same thing over and over in different outfits, which actually is kind of funny in retrospect.

I actually can, all the way back to her original appearances in Captain Britain, but we would be here all day.

It was all downhill after Psylocke became a ninja and Cable militarized the New Mutants, IMHO.

Gotham is an open point of contention in my house. My husband really likes it and I can't stand it. FWIW, I read lots of comics and he doesn't at all. That may be the difference.

Man, that was a bummer. I saw "X-Men TV series" and thought this might be a complete reboot with Claremont's continuity. But it sounds like another Bryan Singer wankfest.

Good call.

"Winnie The Pooh: A Very Merry Pooh Year" sounds like a misguided porn parody.

I don't know. The awful tragedy of Gail seemed very plausible — she took for granted the comforting illusion of civilization the survivors had created, and then realized her error too late. It'd be a bummer if that's how she died, sure, but it rings true.

They were fine. It wasn't as classic country as it could have been, but the music was fine. They didn't deserve the fate they suffered.

I think he was too busy being sad.

You took the words right out of my mouth. HUGE difference there.

I would say "fans of modern country" rather than "modern country fans." Classical country and alt-country have a large fan base that is not particularly ideological.

This seems to the mainstream line on Bush now, but I remember that administration blow-by-blow and we were not chill about it at all. People were calling for Bush and Cheney to be prosecuted as war criminals on a weekly basis. Hell, that even continued for the first couple years of the Obama presidency.

Yeah, I don't think any jokes are necessarily off limits from a humor perspective, but publicly making a joke like this and privately doing it are very different things. Falls in the category of "Just because you can doesn't mean you should."

I know nothing about Tiffany Trump other than Chelsea Handler bags on her being obscure. Which kind of goes to your point, I guess.

Yeah, that's not really the sort of joke one tweets to the entire Internet.

Sure, but it doesn't sound like he learned the right things.

The Joker as the bad guy? Wow, what an original idea! It's not like they've done that before in other movies! It would have been totally fresh.

It's funny. People really don't understand that paying attention to him just makes him stronger.

It's a good idea to watch Fahrenheit 9/11 as an antidote to much of the hand-wringing and teeth-gnashing over Trump. I remember watching Moore's film as a fairly young man and feeling like there was no hope in the world. And, is it turned out, we were all going to be okay. There's a simple, effective lesson there
