Ah yes, a movie in which the audience is literally meant to cheer a woman getting assaulted, how dare these crazy oversensitive WOMEN call shit out about that. Let's ignore people who call out sexism, that's not like the strategy that enables sexism to keep existing everywhere or anything.

It's not the worst part, but his smug assumption of moral superiority- and the assumption that transpeople should be happy for that treatment he gives them because it would be worse from anyone else- definitely elevates what would otherwise be fairly standard (though shitty) dickishness to a special plane of asshole.

did you see the family guy where he has a bunch of people throw up at the idea of a transwoman

Yeah, I don't really see Ender's Game actually getting another shot either- this movie's doing garbage business overseas because nobody's ever heard of the book there

Scotty getting together with Midge would on the whole have been not so great for Midge, he was a deeply disturbed man

Well hey, apparently you've had a career renaissance as a behind the scenes videographer for Michael Mann

He's pretty noteworthy for the number of major directors he's worked with exactly once- the Coens, Lynch, Scorsese, De Palma- is there a name director he's actually formed a relationship with?

The Rock is the most amazing complex of terrible ideas, tonal mismatches, and actors behaving as though they are in different movies, and works specifically because of it- like, when you watch Transformers or Armageddon, it feels like product being shoved down your throat. When you watch The Rock, it feels like you

That movie is intentionally goofier than people give it credit for, like Bibi Andersson's extremely weird little jester's bird dance

i like who charted but actually looking at kremer weirds me out, his voice doesn't match how he looks to me at all

yeah, it's hard to say exactly what about her worked so well, but i think it's just core improv skills- she consistently came up with new directions to take anything thrown at her, quickly and in character. she's not as crazy as like paul rust or james adomian's characters, but she'd be awesome for a show with like

i really enjoy that he couldn't actually think of a single classic movie monster

if you don't actively enjoy having your time wasted, CBB probably isn't for you

dykula was awesome, especially for a cbb first timer- she seemed like someone that could mix interestingly with a lot of the more high energy guests or characters

What effect would the detonation have on the water and any ecosystem therein? Seems like it would still be, you know, kind of a thing.

I dunno, I think it sounds more like the kind of mid 60s Italian black comedy in the Divorce, Italian Style mode that Criterion would put out but never upgrade to blu-ray.

"all evidence suggests that Norris would have taken Lee apart in a real fight"

Well, it matters insofar as the Bob/Leland scenes in this and the following two episodes are among the strongest in the series- not least because Wise is an amazing actor, and things like the "Fire Walk With Me" poem come out of him in a way that nobody else in the series manages.
