The CPAC organizer types sure weren't complaining when the Spencer types enthusiastically voted in the same coalition as them.

I think that's debatable. It was obviously in no way comparable to Bill Maher rolling over for Milo, but she always had an answer ready and I didn't feel like Noah ever had her cornered.
I'm extremely angry about Maher's relentless decades-long push for Islamophobia, but his show is one of the only remaining forums where the liberal host is challenged by conservative ideas.
Oh come on, you know there's going to be an elaborate setpiece that explains in great detail why the parsec is used to measure the speed at which a ship makes the Kessel run.
My issue is that this probably doesn't crack the top-100 of stupid and hateful things that Milo has put out there. Obviously his comments here, even in context, are ridiculously demeaning of young sexual assault victims — but he's said so much worse about so many other people. I'm not getting how this is the thing…
He also completely failed to put Milo's persona in context. He introduced him as a shock comic and let him make pouty doe eyes for the camera, and scolded his own audience for "taking the bait," but didn't bring up any of the horrible things he's done and said. Casual viewers were led to believe that all the outrage…
Kind of doesn't matter seeing as how Tucker Max isn't the senior editor of a top-five online news outlet.

That was kind of implied, and I think the same is true of the Merovingian, but then when he gets into the Architect's room all of the previous Neos on the TV look exactly like Keanu Reeves down to the sunglasses. We see them react to the 15 minute expository monologue, and when present-Neo answers faster than them,…
Yeah but why would the earlier version of Neo look 15 years older in that movie, after the Architect's room seemed to make it clear that all of the Neos look like Keanu Reeves did in 2003?
Ever since 9/11, Maher has had two serious axes to grind about Islam and he steers nearly every conversation about terrorism or the Middle East towards these two points:
There's a right way and a wrong way to handle the studio chopping up your movie. Look at what happened to Josh Trank on that horrible Fantastic Four reboot. He badmouthed the suits on Twitter and got himself fired from a Star Wars movie and may never get a chance to direct a big budget movie again. Nobody actually…
The suits only do that to your movie when you're incompetent at managing the suits.
Putin is probably worried about blowback at this point. It turns out that when you intervene to make someone the most powerful person on Earth, you can't be sure they'll do exactly as you wish. One unintended consequence of this blatant interference in the election is that Trump will now be under political pressure…
This story is already metastasizing at a much faster rate than any previous presidential scandal. Normally these things drip-drip-drip out over months or years. When the scandal reaches a certain critical mass, congressional Republicans won't be able to avoid acting. I had expected it to take at least two or three…
I think the Baldwin Trump gets right to the heart of everything that makes Trump insecure. Which, given the way Trump tweets after every one of these sketches, is most of the fun here. He HATES the idea that some people do not actually take him seriously, which requires a pretty baffling amount of delusion…
If we put together a GoFundMe for that horrible Islamic States of America movie, will Steve Bannon quit his chief White House Rasputin job and direct it? Because that would totally be worth my $50.
You guessed correctly.
My wife won't drag me to the theater, but she will drag me to the couch to watch it once there's a Blu-Ray rip available. At least I can bring my laptop to the couch. I think I only paid attention to five minutes of the first one.
I'm pretty sure if you gave six monkeys a controller and infinite quarters, they'd beat the arcade game in under an hour. It's just punch-punch-special-move-punch until the game has eaten $50 worth of quarters and you finally beat Magneto. The level design is still pretty impressive and it's fun to play a game like…
