Agree 100%. I, like lots of people, watched WW84 on my own on Christmas Day, and it was a joy. 

Wiki says Tenet made $20.2M across both the US and Canada over its first 11 days, so there’s plenty of room for it to be < $16M in the first three.

variety.com: Rebecca Rubin - Box Office: ‘Wonder Woman 1984’ Debuts to Robust (for a Pandemic) $16.7 Million goes on to note, “Even more impressive: it outperformed Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi epic `Tenet,’ which debuted to $9.35 million in September when 70% of theaters had reopened.”

I thought it was good. I remember being initially concerned that they delayed the film (pre-Covid), likely for rewrites, but I mean come on. It’s not like the DC movies are all slam dunks in terms of filmmaking.  Just wait until the fanboys gush about the Snyder Cut despite it likely going to be a flaming dumpster.

Tonight we watched Wonder Woman 1984. It’s now going to be my go-to example about how plot holes don’t matter if you click emotionally with a movie. It totally clicked for me and even now, thinking about various obvious plot holes, I don’t care. I loved it.

I fucking hate that disney owns Star Wars AND Marvel. 

People are making a lot of Pete dumping her by text, but she had already called a break on their relationship (apparently a hiatus). She apparently tried to take it back and he said no. From my perspective if your significant other calls a break they have already provisionally dumped you and your responsibilities to…

I can personally attest to this.  I was a carless, cableless tween/teen in 1997-1999 and had to sit through a number of mind-numbing episodes of Veronica’s Closet because it was too time consuming to log into AOL via dial up between Seinfeld and ER.  It made me yearn for the good old days of Caroline in the City and…

What’s also missing is for that 2008 divorce, Phil allegedly paid her $46 million. Allegedly. 

I know.  I had to look the movie up to read the plot.  I guess if the lead male is 25, and Darius and Kellie are in their mid-40s irl, that makes sense.  But if the lead male is 30; NO NO NO.  

Totally right. We had based that on incorrect information. Found a source that corroborates your memory and research and updated the text above.

Just the worst character assassination in a show. It literally got me to stop watching. That and Adam Pally leaving.

I don’t think “we” did anything. But also: “LaToya.”

I believe it was Mizz (not The Miz) and Dot Gov.

Its all about the clicks baby!

The Democrat running against Boebert is Diane Mitsch Busch. She is a reasonable, middle of the road former county commissioner and former state legislator. She has a shot for an open seat against this new Sarah Palin wannabe. People who care should contribute to her and to John Hickenlooper, who has a shot at tipping…

iirc, the puchline to those jokes was always at the person in blackface’s expense - the other characters were always horrified

Remember how Fey was miffed at people for being put off by the one “Kimmy Schmidt” episode where a group of offended college students protest Titus’s yellowface routine, only to come around because he sang so beautifully in full geisha costume? And that people who called it out said stuff like “well he’s Black…

What a lazy hot take.

Yeah, it was clearly in reference to the interview. This shouldn’t be a thing. It’s kinda depressing that people are so hot for the take-down that they will totally disregard, like, basic syntax.
