Eh, its not that funny

Yep. Gisele seems to be doing well. Meanwhile, sooner or later (sooner at this point) Tom is going to have to figure out what his life is going to be when he can no longer be an NFL quarterback. It would have been smarter to figure that one out before throwing his marriage away. Many others former great NFL QBs have…

What about that guy from Entourage??

iirc the character explicitly names himself after the tolkien villain

hey, maybe they meant John De Lancie’s TNG character!

I found the finale of Shining Girls underwhelming enough that it lessened my opinion of the series overall. I did enjoy the performances and the overall premise, ending just felt rushed and too many unanswered questions. i think the series would have benefited from another ep or two. It did kind of make me want to…

i seem to recall it helped inspire a  D & D module from TSR back in the day, too. I mostly remember the cover had some giant that seemed like there would be chance the party would be able to beat (quick google search reveals this was module X2, Castle Amber, although further research suggests that CoA was only one…

I always thought Zelazny’s Lord of Light would make a good series in theory, although the backlash from religious types would probably sink it.

i thought Michael Pena had taken over as Mr. Roarke but this must be a newer iteration.  

No love for Mazes & Monsters ??!??  

sequelitis imo. need movies centered on new characters instead of expecting new characters to simply spin out from existing franchises. not a coincidence shang-chi was the best of the phase despite pretty much following the standard marvel formula(disclosure- haven’t seen WF yet and will just wait for D+ at this…

he’s too old now, but Jackie Earle Haley seemed like he would have made a good Wolverine, assuming you’re not looking for a Logan who is easy on the eyes.  the comics never gave me the impression he’s supposed to be good looking tho

An Australian thinking some bizarre sounding animal was simply made-up? Now i’ve heard everything!

wouldn’t be surprising - feels like there are about a zillion reality shows based around either being in or just getting out of prison, why not a real housewives version

just you wait, Dalton will be cast in one of these marvel movies yet. heck, they already got Tony Dalton!

man, Michael Shannon would be just great as Parker.  he’s killing it as George jones right now, which i wouldn’t have expected

back in GotG v1, Drax did indeed have some silliness about him but also came across as a fairly scary dude. He’s gotten goofier with each subsequent film appearance imo. I thought maybe they would eventually have him hook up with Mantis but feels like has has very little of a character arc or development, outside from…

yes i agree, more episode reviews would be nice (altho feels like the “reviews” are more like recaps, these days).

i think it is more likely dems wring some concessions from mccarthy (in terms of perhaps committee makeups and debt limit vote) in exchange for voting present so as to lower the threshold mccarthy needs to 200 or whatever he is capable of getting

yeah this one definitely bounced back extremely well after the one stormy weekend depressed turnout a bit.  even domestically seems like its on fire now, raking in box office
