That’s kind of his whole deal. As someone roughly his age, it absolutely speaks to me. Every generation has programming built in. I get irrationally annoyed at shit all the time; the trick is to recognize the irrationality for what it is, and try and do better. That’s where his humor lies, but I get it’s not for…

The algorithm rejected it.

Good idea, I couldn’t make through the first book.

Too old she is. Too old for the training.

Apple didn’t pay them until now.

They’re setting up the big multiverse crossover with Dr. Strange and/or The Flash.

They pretty much all are. If they’re calling you, at the very least a large % of any donation is likely going to the call center.

Snark aside, if you have Max, those are, mostly, pretty good shows, if you haven’t seen them.

You’re suggesting we re-watch season 1 of Wheel of Time? I barely made it through the first season. I’m hopeful S2 might do a better job of keeping me conscious.

It was definitely the weakest season thus far.

Unrelated, but the still of Lea Seydoux at the start of the article is amazing. I’m guessing Lady Margot’s part might be a bit expanded for the movie.

Meh, Children of Dune is just approaching the embankment of weird. It doesn’t completely go off the rails until God Emperor.

‘Reactions’ are just out-sourced press releases. Change my mind.

The last 30 seconds of this (or most) film didn’t make it good or bad. And the unseen ending you’re describing is hardly different enough to change the film’s reception.

The connection between combat sports and sex is quite real and well documented (napkin summary: adrenaline + bloodflow = horny). That doesn’t matter, however, as this is fiction and the characters just have to believe that it is so.

No Nastassja Kinski? No thanks.

You could make the case for “Best 21st Century Star Wars”, I suppose (although I’d pick Rogue One), but I agree it’s no Empire.

The trailer was definitely all about vibe, not plot. I got more a Warhammer 40k feel.

“it looks cool so shut up” is actually one of the positive things you can say about a Zac Snyder film.

People love Ezra that much? I didn’t watch the whole series, but he seemed like a bit of a whiny brat, and why they gave him command is beyond me.
