I don't care. I just really want Dowd to review it.

My name's Marty and I like to party!

Who are you to talk, Pennywise?

Yeah, I've only seen it once, but I found it pretty enjoyable. I mean, what else can you expect from a movie like that?

And now?

Why does this competition even exist?

1. I'm not trying to justify it, but it makes sense.

Since the Internet isn't a good place to get into semantics, I'll give Clever Username the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to bad wording. There are probably a lot of other candidates who would do a good job…but I'm going to be honest, on a practical level, del Toro and Cuaron are better choices than any of your…

Well, I really doubt that Ang Lee would want to direct a huge Hollywood action film after his experience with Hulk, great director though he may be. As for Paris Barclay, he's a television director. He has no experience with handling a large production or visual effects. Why would Disney select someone like that—who…

I'm not sure what your point is. Those are just a bunch of random, female and/or non-white directors who aren't exactly struggling to find work. Why on Earth would you think Ang Lee would even want to make a Star Wars movie, or that someone like Paris Barclay would have the skills to do it

Hey, nobody made Rian Johnson take this on. He's making the movie because he wants to make it. He's had three critically-successful movies and has enough cache to get what he wants. And directing a Star Wars movie is probably the impossible dream of every filmmaker in his generation. So, I imagine he's very happy to…

They already cast The Kingpin, it's Vincent D'Onofrio…

Eh, Edwards was working with a tiny budget on Monsters, and the problems with Godzilla were pretty much all story-based. But he could probably make a very good movie when paired with a decent script.

Well, he's made two other films and some stellar television episodes, too.

Like this?

Hmmm, never heard of The Returned. Sounds like a very interesting premise, I might have to check that out. My predictable prediction about "Ozymandias" winning looks like it will come true, though.

That's beard, not a mustache.

Great, so it's going to be another Smallville.

Well, they wrote a whole comic series about that…

So what's the deal with this show? The idea behind it, and every preview, makes it look pretty dreadful. But it's also been getting pretty good reviews.
