As a fan of the first book that’s the exact draw the Fincher movie has for me over the original, Craig & Rooney are much better at capturing the characters as they were in the book than the Swedish leads.

This article reminded me that there was a covid Father of the Bride special that I never bothered watching.

Kind of two minds on this, on the one hand, from everything described that happened to Kesha, the guy is a piece of shit and fuck him.

I’m surprised by the B rating, this film was a total bore. The film is propped up by random obstacles that just get thrown in by the writers, they don’t feel earned, it just feels like, “well we need something to happen here, so...this thing will break, or this thing will fail...” I guess its a good show piece for the…

Yeah, like I say I can objectively admire the performances, but the age gap between her and her co-star(s) in both films bug me, I’ve been over Hollywood’s laziness with casting young women and old men for awhile, and would have skipped Silver Linings completely but the praise made me curious, and then it was…

I like the Kingkiller Chronicles, but I also feel like the major appeal of those books is just being enveloped (or as the headline here suggests, maybe “enfolded”) up in that world, storywise its such a slow crawl that goes nowhere, and in the book you can get away with all the “he’s a great singer and lute player,”…

I think his Jennifer Lawrence obsession as a muse is wholly misplaced. I like Jennifer Lawrence, and while I can objectively admire her performances in Russell’s movies, I also subjectively think she’s terribly cast and shouldn’t be in everyone of them (including this one!)

The presumption of that reveal being the Fury we saw throughout the movie was a Skrull playing the part of Fury, while Fury was off in space doing something I’m sure this series will explore in more depth.

I’m not trying to be contrary, and I think its a good story either way. But is that scene really iconic or stand out? In the video she says people will randomly yell that line out to her. That can’t be true can it? I wanna say it feels like a pretty generic scene, but maybe I’m misremembering and this is the first…

Anyone with HBO Max been able to watch these episodes? When I try to watch them I just get a broken “play” button, I can still watch everything else on HBO Max, just not these final episodes.

I’ve dug the Spidey films up to now, but feeling a little back and forth on this one. I’m not super excited about the multi-verse, its a messy comic conceit, it feels a little redundant/lazy given that part of this is obviously a response to how well Into the Spidey-Verse did, and I worry it will be a shortcut to…

Yes, but how was anyone from AV Club to know that until someone from Yahoo! “News” read the interview in Men’s Health and then posted a summary of this part of the interview with a headline enticing enough to get someone from AV Club to click on the article?

“Killmonger can come back. Just say some sympathizer on Shuri’s staff stuck him in a cryo chamber or some shit.”

CAn’t say I was terribly bothered, or even noticed, particular Whedon tropes (whereas some if them they drive me a little crazy in Avengers), but even with me being able to overlook/forgive that the episode was a total bore. HBO’s track record with sci-fi tends to lean towards being completely lifeless and dull; Raised…

Beat me to it, the pairing of Mantzoukus and Daly for the hundos is always great, but 701 is a high watermark, Ego and Tart are do no wrong comedians everytime they’re on the show, but the episode would still get high marks from me if for no other reason than hearing Gabrus actually brave the waters with a character…

Middleditch was definitely one of the funniest guests of the show, and while there have been joking characters and asides about the me-too movement over the years, Scott is never going to jump the gap to genuine controversy by creating future associations with anyone who faces the accusations Middleditch does.…

I also don’t feel like I understand the concept of Captain America as John Walker in the show. I understood Steve Rogers as he was introduced through the movies, he was as PR machine, than forced his way into combat and proved himself an undeniable asset, and remained so even after being unfrozen, then became an…

“it was basically Reddit’s predecessor”

Alright...which one of you went into the bathroom, put my costume on, and took a shit in it?

At least until Marvel’s The Eternals comes out, then WB will fast track it with Louis Letterier or Alan Taylor or someone else Marvel has opted not to re-hire.
