I am shocked that a film whose plot focuses around a white person about to attend an all-boys boarding school doesn't address the devastating effects of criminality, high unemployment, foreclosure, or discrimination upon the lives of supposedly common people. I have not been so upset since Diary of Wimpy Kid 3…

Is it too early to start saying "This is Azeroth"?

Charmed did this a couple of times. The main plot of one episode practically relied on Dishwalla's popularity being enough to make a club the hottest place in town. Surprise surprise, a Faustian pact with a demon manager was required.

I wish the Opening Ceremonies had a bit more of an all-encompassing vision. Lots of pretty bits, but because the various segments didn't build to any greater point it seemed like the message was just, "Britain sure has a lot of nice things."
