Maybe I’m being overly generous, but to me Obi-Wan’s incompetence read pretty realistically. He’s spent ten years in a combination of severe depression, PTSD, and actively trying to suppress everything that makes him noticeable. There’s probably a disconnection from the Force to stay under the radar that’s putting him…

There is not a better argument for defunding or abolishing the police than this video (not to mention what happened at Parkland). What are police for, as presently constituted with guns, bulletproof vests, any amount of offensive and defensive military gear, and authority to use all of that at the drop of a hot, if…

It makes sense, but large parts are more allegorical than literal.

Well if I really liked the band I was there for I could leave the venue, take a piss and smoke and come back.

Yeah I can’t imagine how hard it must have been for those poor, poor people. 

Yeah I know. You might hear jokes you don’t like!  

You almost never know who the opening act is for a comedy show and sometimes you don’t like that act.

I mean, according to what he said, he was asked to “share some memories of their time together,” so that’s all either of us knows about what he was asked. You can be “sure” all you want, but based on what he said, what he was asked was for memories of their time together. And regardless, it was on him to be…

The impulse to be “tragedy adjacent.”  Everyone doesn’t need your take on why a tragedy happened.  If you were asked to share some memories of your time together for “a loving tribute,” what part of “he hated his tour schedule and said he couldn’t fucking do it anymore” seemed to you to constitute “a loving tribute”? …

I love how the article the other day says “reportedly” in the title. I’m reportedly great in bed. I’m reportedly smarter than the average bear. I’m reportedly an expert on nuclear fusion. And fission. Reportedly, only one of these statements is true.

Is Kim’s mom really a “lover of great 80s music”, or does she just have the radio on in 1983?

Kim definitively broke bad at the end of this episode. She was on the verge of getting legitimately what she’s been claiming this whole con with Howard has been about, solid financial support for her pro bono legal work, and gaining the respect of her legal peers to boot, but deep down putting the boot to Howard was…

They’re certainly not the best movies in the world but they’re about 100x better than the generic ‘90s and ‘00s action movies that they’ve generally replaced. ‘Highly mediocre’ describes most of the movies that, say, Netflix makes today. Marvel movies are generally decent, a step or so above mediocre...in my opinion.

Is a take almost no one would agree with. Boy, Marvel would’ve liked it if audiences and critics thought so, tho!

“Polygraph tests are bullshit" and "How is she beating this polygraph???" in one article. Bravo, boys,  you've done it again.

And this is about a completely different movie, so why should we care? 

Polygraphs are not admissible in court.  Yes, they get used in investigations, but given how unreliable they are, they’re never actually entered as evidence.

It was common even before COVID, but I feel like this writer is forgetting that MoM was one of the first Marvel movies to start filming during tight COVID restrictions.

…or c) these movies are filmed on a green screen and it’s entirely common for people to appear in scenes together without ever having met.

The Starbucks cup really cut into my core, damn straight Sam.
