I was hoping the revival would have at least one scene per episode end with the camera just panning to an inanimate knob on a dresser drawer without comment, and that would be our weekly update on Josie 25 years on.

It means the comment it's posted as a reply to (or more commonly, a specifically quoted section of the comment/article) can also be said to describe the AV Club site/community as a whole to comical effect.

If nude models can't break the law, the Russians have won.

My ears are burning!

I think you're on the wrong website dogg, sorry.

do you just have a knowyourmeme tab open that you're copy-pasting from at random or what is going on here

There's been at least two company-wide continuity reboots since Tower of Babel. Batman's Secret Enemy List is currently about as canonical as Superman's rainbow beams. Sorry about your wish fulfilment.

Yeah, lots of writers who are too attached to Batman and not attached enough to producing good writing have had the fanwanky idea that Batman can take down literally anyone in existence at any time without obstacle. If it was fanfiction it would be rightfully mocked - stamping the DC logo on it doesn't make the plot…

I think there's a very strong chance you could be.

Yeah, however would the literal Gods that make up the rest of the team stop a tall normal guy with, uh, a nice car….

I really, really hate this characterization of Batman. I'm okay with him being a smart guy, because you'd have to be to pull off the double life he's supposed to, but somewhere along the way writers have escalated the idea of him as a talented and intelligent man to him being an almost untouchable natural genius…

Yes-men? In the Celebrity Centre?!

I mean… pretty sure actual history did it first.

Equally unconvicted.

I thought Top of the Lake might have been a one-off misfire to challenge herself, but I guess now Elisabeth Moss has officially joined the club of actors who are convinced they can do any accent and apparently have nobody around them to tell them otherwise.

Seems if you were really sorry you just wouldn't have done it.

John C. Reilly and Adam Scott both started out as dramatic actors but have focused almost exclusively on comedy for years now. Jon Hamm discovered comedy a while back too although he still alternates those roles with dramatic ones, as does Andre Braugher.

Add Cumberbatch to that list too. Why anyone would hire him to narrate their documentary escapes me when a) he sounds exactly like literally every other posh English guy and b) it would almost definitely be cheaper and more interesting to hire somebody with actual knowledge on the subject.

Came here to make a joke about hoping they were the same quality as Chappie but I see both the article and every other comment has already got that covered. Gonna flip the script and say that Chappie is my favorite film of all time, only genuinely and unironically. Bet I'm the first to do that!

Truly no short man has ever had a lust for power. Homeboy still would have had the much more useful advantages of being born rich and famous, even if he wasn't slightly above average height. I don't think adding a Napoleon complex on top of his issues would have made him a better-tempered or less successful person…
