    The same thing would happen to a band like Radiohead if they publicly supported Trump and Brexit. Artists defy their fan bases at their peril.

    Martin Lawrence is now a full 10 years older than Danny Glover was when Murtaugh was approaching retirement (and "too old for this shit") in the first Lethal Weapon movie. Will Smith is only three years younger than Lawrence.

    At least people leave comments on your IMBb page! I actually thought about creating a troll account to leave nasty comments about how much I suck.

    This site is kind of like Breitbart that way, without the Nazis.

    I don't think ANH is a kid's movie. There are no kids in it, for one thing. Children can enjoy Hero's Journey stories because they deal with simple themes like good vs. evil, and the main character always moves from a mundane world into a more extraordinary one, which appeals to a child's desire to explore the

    I always thought that David Koepp's work on the first movie was underrated. He took a rambling novel with lots of unlikeable characters and too many dead-end subplots, and streamlined it into a classic. He even basically captured the importance of chaos theory to the story in one quick scene, instead of stopping the

    [Joel Schumacher waits patiently for phone to ring]

    Hitler implemented universal healthcare for German citizens! Unfortunately he had very specific ideas about who qualified as a German citizen. But overall his healthcare policy, even though it included forced abortions and sterilization and euthanasia, was far more coherent than Trump's.

    I lost interest about halfway through the first one, 15 years ago. I never understood how they could keep making another movie every two years.

    Lays are the best chips, really fantastic chips. Utz chips are small and cheap in comparison, and they only sell a tenth as much as Lays. Sad!

    Depends — does the Nazi have a ticket?

    The thing is, we kind of defeated the Nazis by killing millions of them with guns and bombs, rather than by engaging in rational discussion. Without violence, the Nazis would still rule most of Europe. It is absolutely moral to use violence to defeat Nazis.

    He wasn't wrong! But I would love to know which five directors Cameron considers his peers.

    It must suck for everyone who worked on this film to have to pretend to disavow it just because some idiot leaked footage of a dog who didn't get hurt. How many premieres is Josh Gad going to get invited to in his lifetime? This was his moment to shine.

    Batman monkey needs to shut up and dance!

    And, um, after the initial enslaving Christmas present meeting with Moriarty, it seems that Mycroft was kind enough to schedule a shooting day so that Euros could get all the b-roll footage she'd need for her evil plot years later.

    I couldn't get past the nonsense where she "enslaves" people just by talking to them for five minutes.

    Anthony Hopkins is still working — they should have just named the long-lost sibling Hannibal Holmes and been done with it.

    No. The first half of the first season is the series' peak in terms of quality. The series was originally only picked up for 13 episodes, and in the back half of Season 1 it quickly becomes clear that the writers never had any concrete plan to extend the story to all 24 episodes. So we get nonsense involving

    If I recall correctly, he was last seen writhing as the authorities dragged him away while he said "Think about it, Jack! THINK ABOUT IT!" like a Scooby Doo villain.
