Look who I'm talking to, but Tim Curry was never sexy!

Your tagged scene was a shocking-funny moment when I saw it in the theater. I was surprised they killed poor Richard Jenkins..

Actually, I made that up. I don't remember too well the details the novel and miniseries, so have no idea if the second was faithful to the first.

That makes me think that the sexy clown (of both genders) Halloween costume never took off, or existed.

I think The Stand miniseries holds up much better and is more faithful to its source material. But both are clearly of the 1990s TV movie aesthetic.

No, no, squares wear ties and have their shirts fully buttoned.

Maybe Nicole Kidman really is a robot. Huh, did you consider that, Cannes? I don't think so.

Just that Aliens, a superb action film and war film, had emotional stakes in Ripley being a (surrogate) mother to Newt. That's what she was fighting for. The other films in the series don't have that ( I have yet to see Covenant), which is fine, because of the horror nature of the series, as you described, but I…

I took a no-reason long break from it when it came out, and only now am nearing the end of the first season. It's endearingly big-hearted, explicitly being about kindness and empathy as a sci-fi/fantasy show. Teenagers should love it—it has that sense of childhood wonder and adventure.

It blew apart the emotional heart of the previous film, but it works kinda if Ripley is cursed with the Alien in a forever pas de deux. She and the monster will leave many casualties behind in their perverted love story.

That's the result of not having any!

There you go. See, even you who know your own social faults (hopefully you think worse of them than they actually are), aren't a stupid, egotistical jackass. Congratulations!

They're all he and his voters have: a fortified adoration outpost he and his voters have constructed where the reality of his disastrous presidency cannot get in and both parties feel much better about their very poor choices.

John Ridley was on Tavis Smiley's show a month ago. Smiley asked about the curse of the Black Oscar winner post award, and Ridley said he was aware of it. I couldn't help think of that when I saw the commercials for this. I mean, it's easy work and money for Foxx, but it aligns with Halle Berry doing Catwoman and…

That is not a bad idea. Show all those men that it's okay to grieve and not get over it.

I hadn't read Dr. Seuss before. We're not American and I don't remember if my parents, who did read to me English-language books, covered him. So much later, in my adult years, I'm catching up. First, Horton Hears a Who, a nice, beautifully drawn story about what we owe to each other as living things. But, and here…

We're seeing more movies where diversity and equality means women act more like stereotypical men—with the punching and fighting—so I want to see Hollywood make a bunch of films about men acting like stereotypical women—being emotionally expressive, vulnerable, sad, tender—while doing stereotypical woman's work, like…

This is very pathetic and makes me think that these guys have no social skills at all so they cling to the social club they joined by accident of birth all the more tightly.

Kidman really is one of the best actresses of her generation, but she does so many projects and in big and small parts, that you don't realize that (she's the opposite of the unhurried Daniel-Day Lewis). She was genius in the underrated Genius. May the Kidmanaissance never end!
