Every day I thank the universe I’m not a heterosexual, because their culture seems super tedious.

Is it just me, or do the visual effects look really bad in this?

Yeah! These kids should be working in labs instead of having fun!

Which is weird because Army of the Dead is actively bad. The ending is especially heinous in that it completely forgets the existence of one of the main characters. What a shit show. 

I think his point would be even the generic, by the numbers MCU movies are successful so the Taika’s/Russo’s/Gunn’s are almost exceptions to the rule. For my personal money, all the best MCU movies are directed by people with unique voices, but as far as visual style the movies all very much look ‘of a piece’ which is…

Taika Waititi already mostly fit into the Marvel mould. Other than infusing it with some Kiwi pride, the movie was another example of the Marvel formula, albeit a very good example. James Gunn is the same. His “loveable asshole” schtick fits right in a whole cinematic universe full of loveable assholes, as long as he…

Like your comment?

Everything about this movie seems so bland. A bunch of superheroes no one has ever heard of fighting the most generic CGI monsters imaginable against a muted backdrop.  This is just impossible to get excited for.

Captain Marvel made a billion dollars. And Endgame was almost complete by the time it released (they came out like two months apart). Carol’s role was modest in Endgame because she’s insanely overpowered, and for the time being it’s best to keep her on the sidelines and use her as a last resort, lest she become a…

They sure do. There’s no ability to yell racist or homophobic slurs at your fellow players, much less the ability to sic a SWAT team on them. It’s like do you even game bro?

Dobby?

They don’t make many of those anymore. 

“This is the kind of role that only comes along once in a lifetime”

The real walking dead were the friends we made along the way.

If you’re talking about the episode Normal Again in Buffy Season 6, I actually liked the terrifying realisation that the ‘real world’ was in fact actually a real alternate dimension because of that final scene (it didn’t disappear) and the sinister implication that the experiences of Buffy in the BTVS universe crossed…

Dude, if you’ve convinced yourself that the older, kinja-less version of the AVClub would go any easier on this trifle, I don’t know what to tell you.

No, he’s a fuck up in the MCU as well as evidenced by a litany of avoidable disasters that needlessly got people killed. Just not being a prize ass to Killian (yes he’s primarily responsible for his own behaviour but still) would probably have avoided the premature deaths of at least dozens of people. Plus Killian…

The correct name is Dr. Arrakistein's Planet.

The review did a good job pointing out instances where the show specifically failed in it’s depiction of non-white characters, though

I’m obviously a lone voice but I hated this. A waste of the voice talent and just a complete waste of time.
