Look at Rotten Tomato scores. People would love to love DC Comics movies, but Warner Brothers doesn’t seem to understand why people like the characters and actually fought with Patty Jenkins over the most iconic scene in the Wonder Woman movie. (They wanted to skip the trench warfare scene, because it was slowing down…

“For the most part it is harmless. I’m not going to lie—I have used flirting to my advantage to get my way in public with both men and women. It’s a thing that I do.

This feels like a very long personal rebuttal from Facebook that got cross-posted to Kotaku.

Because Mexican identity is a huge deal for many Mexican-Americans, especially in the Trump era.

Having a toy that affirms there is value in being Latina, and that you can go on to be one of the world’s most famous artists, even when Washington is sending you and your family a very different message, is incredibly…

Hayek is one of the world’s most beautiful women. That doesn’t detract from how one may or may not feel about Kahlo, who is a towering presence in Mexican culture, but claiming she’s more attractive than Hayek doesn’t strengthen any arguments.

Zebu as the villain of Captain America 4 would be both baffling and amazing.

Some planets are more chemical than others.

And given all of Gotham’s other issues, I suspect the planning commission is either completely graft-driven, hopped up on Scarecrow’s fear gas 24/7, or are all dead.

“Chemical Planet” would be a great title for something or other.

2 Days in the Valley would have been vastly better with the original script, in which it was revealed in that letter at the end, that the angry cop had HIV he had apparently contracted a massage parlor, which is what fueled his over the top aggression in the movie. (As I recall, the letter he toted around was changed…

That’s ... odd. A middling horror sequel needs all the attention it can get, your questions were reasonable ones, and Mad Men had/has a much bigger audience than the Strangers does. This seems like it would be good for the movie to have people reading what Hendricks has to say about #MeToo as possible.

I’m thinking…

Yeah, I suspect we haven’t heard the end of the LA Weekly debacle.

Your post makes it sound like only Gothamist is coming back. LAist is back as well. In a bleak local media year in SoCal, LAist coming back is a bright spot.

(Even if everyone they employed is rehired, though, that’s still a drop in the bucket to the number of folks laid off by the Southern California News Group —…

None of what I said should be construed as a rousing defense of Cloverfield Paradox, which was a hot mess. ;)

That anyone thought it was necessary to explain the first to Cloverfield movies at all is my issue.

Biathlon is completely badass.

Other sports, like baseball, are split into two different activities, but only in biathlon are the two diametrically opposed. The harder you ski — and cross-country is exhausting — the harder it is to shoot accurately. And you have a limited supply of bullets, so if you miss more than a…

I love the Cloverfield movies and this was deeply mediocre and performed the completely pointless task of explaining how they all fit together. That said, my wife and I still watched the whole thing and enjoyed it, even as I mentally noted problem after problem (the centrifugal force “artificial gravity” wouldn’t work…

I’d say about 4'10".

I would say it’s because Americans have developed good taste and judgement in the past few years — I mean, you can get better Mexican food even in Minnesota — but all the evidences suggests _that’s_ not true.

Neil Gaiman is not your bitch.

The show’s ultimate arc is going to be sending them to the actual Good Place and possibly beyond it (any afterlife that sends more than 99 percent of souls to the Bad Place isn’t going to have a Good Place we would recognize as Heaven).

So next season, they’re in the Good Place, or some place adjacent to it and…

Gotham as a Detroit analogue is a lot more interesting than it being yet another comic book version of New York City. I like.
