This is a fair point, but it still feels like something that seems obvious but is counter-intuitively wrong. The case my wife always uses is movie theater bathrooms - everyone is in the theater, so she feels unsafe in an empty bathroom. That would back this up, I guess? All I have is that if I see a guy going into a…

See, this is a fair point, but I only care inasmuch as the director is like a misogynist or something like that. If he let his dogs wreck a house and then paid for it…I don't really care.

Why would it be safer?

I liked the subversion of the assumption that it was going to be Joey or Yo-Yo, since the audience isn't attached to them yet (especially knowing that Yo-Yo is going to die, thanks to the flash-forward), and then faking it to be Lincoln, which feels like the most dangerous but still acceptable choice, before making it…

Gonna go WAY OUT ON A LIMB and assume you're a guy. Women don't necessarily feel safe around strange men, and there's a super good reason why! That's why we don't have unisex public bathrooms.

Do we need that, though? Can't we judge his effectiveness as a director by his output? That kind of information is useful to his future employers, but not to us as consumers, right?

Feels good man.

Your objection is fair - my response was needlessly critical.

Lego Star Wars with my daughter, aimlessly riding around in Red Dead Redemption when by myself. My gaming is decidedly unfocused lately.

Those who never catch anything?

AUGH JESUS one of my direct reports does that and I had to push down the urge to fire him on the spot when I saw it.

Not a huge fan of this kind of thing, where you could literally have typed LESS into a search engine and get your answer.

No, this is still true, three years later. Definitely on the once and done list.

AUGH GOD DAMN IT. That scene of Nosferatu is one that's been stuck in my psyche for three decades.

That's funny, I didn't care at ALL about the story but liked the gameplay.

I don't think liking 21 Jump Street is that hot of a take, it was pretty widely acknowledged to be a fun and clever movie that defied everyone's (very low) expectations. So I'm saying you don't need to be bashful and back into a compliment on it.

Yeah, if you don't like Elliot, you're not going to like the Flophouse. I still haven't listened to the episodes from before he joined and I can't even imagine how the show was structured without him as the driving energy.

It's his way of making the best film possible.

I saw it was two hours and thought "well, I'll listen to some of this," and then I ended up listening to it twice over the course of this week.

We're sorry we threw things on the stage, Mr. Harwell.
