I thought it was funny. And it indirectly addressed them not showing up to fight Starro in TSS.

I am happy to accept Superman’s poop fetish as canon. I mean, he has sex with humans, who are a different species. Of COURSE he’s into some freaky shit. If Martha knew only the half of it, she would be so ashamed…

I guess they don’t like the Harley Quinn animated series either?

The Snyder Cult really doesn’t have any sense of media literacy...

That’s cool. Idk why but I just never think of the Criterion Channel.

My God, you’ve just added a new layer to my understanding of Darcy. I’m just like Darcy too. Well, minus the handsome and rich parts.

I assume this is another casualty of the great resignation.

Alternatively, Kanye’s feeling froggy and lashing out at people he thinks he can take in a confrontation.

Even though I knew the story already from the film adaptations, when I finally got around to reading the book, I realized within the first chapter why it enjoys such a good reputation. Pride and Prejudice really is an enjoyable read. Austen's prose is the perfect example of "economy of words". She manages to say far…

Lizzie and Darcy both had to work through the obstacle of him telling Bingley not to propose to Jane. That was bad. 

One other I’d recommend is the miniseries Lost in Austen, about a modern day fan of the book who discovers a portal into it in her attic, causing her and Elizabeth to switch places and get stuck. For a while she tries to keep the story perfectly on track, but finds things are never quite as she expecting (turns out…

I am so sad this column is coming to an end. I love that it’s a serious analysis of a lot of films which often get overlooked or treated with disdain, and there’s been a good mix of classics I’ve seen, underrated gems I want to see, and some really terrible pieces of work. Another one bites the dust...

Macfayden is such a gifted actor. He might give my favorite performance on Succession.

There’s a fairly famous line where Elizabeth declines to join Darcy, Hurst & Miss Bingley on a walk with the excuse that the three of them make a picturesque grouping and the lovely effect would be ruined by adding a fourth, which comes from William Gilpin’s advice on sketching cattle in the landscape:

It took me a while to come round to this version after seeing the 1995 miniseries, but eventually I found it had a lot of charm. It’s better at delineating the difference between the Bennetts and their rustic neighbours and the more genteel likes of Bingley and Darcy. It also sells the humour really well, especially…

What struck me when I first read P&P (somewhere in my late twenties) was how modern a lot of it seemed. When Mr Collins is proposing to Lizzie, both negging her and insisting she’s just turning him down to increase his affection for her, it was just like the screenshots of texts you see all over the internet from…

If he jumped onto a stage with Billie Eilish, I’d still bet on the wispy little white girl.

I normally couldn’t give a shit about Billie Eilish, but I hope she tells Kanye to go fuck himself.

You’re so vain, you probably think this OSHA is about you ...

There has to be a rights issue. Amazon Prime also has Evil Under the Sun but not DOTN in digital.
