Fuck, another pube thread.

To split hairs, neither of those is really a biopic in the traditional sense. They're both snapshots of a particular period of Obama's life - in Southside's case, it literally covers a single day. And it's good, too! It's a pretty charming romcom.

For a moment, I thought Luther was going to be the anger translator for Trump and just unleash a torrent of N-words. Although that would probably make more sense when translating horrifying southern gentleman Jeff Sessions. Or McConnell. Or for that GOP senator from Florida who actually said the N-word. Trump

Haha, I like that.

He legitimately took me by surprise with his performance. He brings a lot of gravitas to a potentially cliched character. His relationship with Jughead is maybe the most touching thing on the show.

That's the family's statement he quoted, not the production company's. Not calling for George's head, so relax. I just thought that comment could've been thought through better.

…Not sure mocking the grieving family is the tack you want to take with this one.

I thought the ending was supposed to be a fantasy. Or, at the very least, ambiguously real.

I don't think people expressing love and admiration toward a film is the same thing as claiming it's "transcendent art." Honestly, though, it's been so long since I've seen the original trilogy that I don't know where I'd put it on the spectrum. I am a little dubious of the idea that there's a clear line between

My immediate thought after something like that happens is always "Dude, I don't work on commission. I don't give a shit if you stop buying Pringles here."

I didn't say she did. I said she was memorable, charismatic, and iconic. I don't necessarily disagree with your notion that she didn't have an arc. I would argue, though, that her lack of an inner journey doesn't particularly detract from her character or the films. James Bond only started experiencing character

They are archetypes, but they're also incredibly iconic archetypes, winningly played by the actors. Indiana Jones is an archetype, too, but that doesn't make him any less amazing. No one in Rogue One has a tenth of the charisma of Leia or Han Solo - in fact, no one in Rogue One has a personality, period (and if you

I mean, it's hard to make the claim that characters like Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Princess Leia are nonexistent. Even if they're not imbued with Shakespearean-level depth, they're still highly memorable. The characters in Rogue One were entirely flat and devoid of personality and I barely remember any of their

I like the juxtaposition between Josey Wales' personal and heartfelt comment and your one-liner about handjobs.

This is spot-on. The film is literally just a checklist of romcom cliches with no thought applied to them. I honestly think the average comments section on here has better jokes than that movie.

I find Kitten pretty hit-or-miss. She's got some cool songs, but a lot of her stuff doesn't do much for me. G# is pretty great though.

Ten Love Songs is an absolutely killer album. "Slowly" is a personal favorite.

"I wish for another genie."

It was also produced by the Farrelly brothers, who've done volunteer work with people with mental disabilities. They apparently even gave Special Olympics final script approval.

Evangelical voters care about one issue: covfefe.
