Which is obviously where the usher fucked up (I was going to put that disclaimer in my post).  

One could argue even long-existing sites like WebMD are rudimentary forms of AI. Pump in a bunch of info, it scans various databases, and spits out potential answers. This is far from anything new, it’s just that now everything is AI.

Not to mention the critic’s certitude that this is a settled topic, when we’re really just getting into it.

If AI truly displaces wide swathes of workers then yes I could see something like that.  But even with automation and offshoring eating up jobs, we still have near record-low unemployment in this country.  Whatever may happen with AI in that regard is still likely a long way off.

Even if I did trust government to do the right thing, who within it is capable of getting out ahead of the technology?  I don’t have a knee-jerk dislike of government, I just routinely question its competence.

I don’t know how Rowland treats people in general, but it’s not a stretch to think that this usher had no idea who she was and was trying to keep the line moving.  I’m also not going to assign some racial motivation.  You can’t just go throwing that kind of shit around at people. 

Especially since his claims that he was dragged by Scheffler’s car are disproven by the video.

Even as the “worst” it’s entirely worth watching, which is not something you often say about every film in a five-movie series.

Agree with OP that even if he had, the alcohol abuse part makes the effects of his foot intake hazy at best.  Especially if he also decided to become a couch potato at the same time.  

Michael Phelps ate something like 14,000 calories per day when he was training.  Granted he was in the pool eight hours a day as well.

Probably a better comparison.

I’d still have a hard time calling this a poor design.  It works as intended and is intuitive to use.

My biggest concern based on the trailer is that it makes the same mistake II and III did - thinking BHC is an action franchise, not a comedy. And you can only do the opening Neutron Dance scene from the original so many times.

1. Make a good movie that stands on its own while leveraging the original, without being a simple nostalgia service

Is Mad Max separated from the others by three column inches because you think it’s that much worse? I hope not, because the main difference between it and the others is that it’s like Alien to Aliens - a completely different scope, but absolutely holds up its end of the bargain.

Especially since Max’s police interceptor is utterly destroyed at the end of Road Warrior.  Any argument that Fury Road takes place between MM and TRW falls apart when you have characters in FR who don’t even know what trees are.  From a societal perspective, TRW and Thunderdome seem to be on similar timelines after…

Is she a cam girl?

Yeah but it took me one drive to get used to it. Push it down a little and it blinks three times. All the way, it stays on until you push it again all the way to turn it off, or you complete the turn. There’s a distinct tactile resistance point where you can tell which you’ve dont.  And you do NOT have to push it the…

Also presumably more difficult for a thief to reach if they somehow get inside the window.

When I saw BMW I was hoping it would be to complain about the melting door handles that are apparently OK in Germany but can’t survive southern U.S. heat for more than a few years. On certain models you have to remove the door panel and grind off a mount to remove it for replacement.  The center door lock is silly but…
