When I said this guy is "great in everything" I meant that as a compliment, not a hypothesis.

He really didn't. Why do you need to misrepresent the memo if it's so bad?

They complain about "safe spaces" but don't like to be fired for their beliefs…. what hypocrites.

There is more to free expression than the First Amendment. You and I are using our cable providers to communicate right now - if they censored us it would not violate the First Amendment but it would sure inhibit our expression.

Who is saying Google should be "compelled" to keep this guy? I think it was wrong to fire him, but that's their right. You can protest an action even if you don't think it should be illegal.

I have not heard anyone say Google did not or should not have the legal right to fire this guy, only that it was wrong to do so.

Equality doesn't necessarily mean equal outcomes. (But don't tell my employer I said that, I like being employed).

The memo itself is not "anti-diversity", it is very clear on this. Maybe people shouldn't be fired for taking one side in a robust and important debate?

If this had been a huge hit, we would see some really interesting fake sequels, because emojis are public domain. You can't use the same characters or voice actors, but children are stupid. Any company that could deliver giant yellow emoji characters cheaply could cash in and there would be little Sony could do about…

I like Penn and I forgive his huge blunders. Penn's successes and failures both originate in big risks. You don't get his performance in "Carlito's Way" without the same kind of risk taking that brought us "I Am Sam". His performance in Carlito's Way could easily have been laughable. He takes enormous risks and when…

New York has a lot of national headquarters for businesses, organizations and media, so stories of smart, ambitious young people are naturally set there. Not everyone who works at a magazine thinks New York is great, that is just where their industry is located.

"It comes across as though Garfield were making light of the history of oppression suffered by LGBTQ individuals" - but it doesn't, at all. Not in context and not out of it.

You never see the main character face forward until he is wearing a mask, because of video game weirdness.

I know it's a framing device for comedy, but without any reverence for the form, it's not a very compelling one. Why sports documentaries?

Do the guys who make these even like sports documentaries? Part of what makes Documentary Now! so great is their evident obsessive knowledge of the real docs they are based on. This looks like what Documentary Now! would look like if made by someone who saw the originals maybe once, a while ago.

Overboard, but it's so obvious I'm not sure it counts.

Meet the Parents, because she let him oversleep. Teamwork, people.

38 states have laws against posting sex tapes without the consent of the person filmed ("revenge porn" laws). Should they not?

That Kristen Wiig bit gave me déjà vu.

This idea of capital J "Journalists" being neutral arbiters of truth is not at all the norm. It is the exception rather than the rule. You are taking a small subset of the world you have seen and assuming everyone else is wrong for not conforming to it.
