Yeah, since the “G” stand for “Graphic” it should be a hard G. As for what the inventor thought, well, I hope everyone who supports the soft G also pronounces “Mexico” as the original Nahuah people did? So instead of arguing over Chipotle, let’s argue over Mexico.

I would have liked to see Sif back in the movies, except . . . Valkyrie came along. Now, anytime a movie focuses on anyone except Valkyrie, it’s a waste of screen time. 

When I was a little kid, we worried where the falling Skylab would hit. God, I’m old.

I apologize if someone said this already, I haven’t read every comment — but I wanted to add my own peeve against Hollywood, in that the excuse is frequently “well, this character has historically been white . . .” The prevalence of white characters, I’m sure, is a relic of discrimination. When Hollywood uses that as

I was only in Kindergarten, but Star Wars is seared into my memory. Before the movie, our theater played Woody Woodpecker cartoons. 

Bernadette Peters as the wicked step mom telling Cinderella she is common, is the ONLY thing I remember about the movie.

You should include Tom Cruise’s “Top Gun: ME” on this list.  Like his Mission Impossible movies, anything that shows Cruise as a “bad ass” qualifies as science fiction.

Could Godzilla just hold Kong under water until he drowns?

For me, it was the movie poster that ruined it. I expected to see what the move poster promised . . . then was thoroughly disappointed. We got to see, what, two dragons? We never got to see the destruction, it just jumps forward to the aftermath. Where are the dragons destroying London!?

My condolences to The Three-Body Problem. Hopefully there won’t be any room for the “showrunners” to add in their own “artistic” expression or storytelling. Because, man . . . Dorne; seasons six and seven. Yikes.

Mulan is one of Disney’s best. The only part I really disliked was the grandmother. She is crude, not funny (“who spit in her bean curd”), and she puts Mulan down with micro-aggressions (“even YOU can’t blow it”). But worst of all, after all Mulan has done for China and her family, the grandmother STILL tells Mulan she

Plus, poorer people cannot afford private legal counsel, so they are at the mercy of public defenders who are overworked. Each individual theft offence did not get as vigorous a defense as a rich person could have purchased for themselves.  “Justice” can be bought, which is bad news for poorer people who are

I wonder what “dirt” Singer has on Hollywood execs, because he seems immune to consequences even more so that others in Hollywood.

There is a large segment in America where “Christian” = “white” Supporting fellow Christians is code for supporting other white people. If they are not white, then they are probably not “good” Christians, so there is no need to support them.

“Veep” gave us the best “Game of Thrones” ending there could be. It perfectly showed an evil woman’s rise to the ultimate position of power, what she had to do and who she betrayed to get there, and the fallout it had on her family/followers/enablers/fellow game-players. Perfection. The difference in the quality of

I starred you just for mentioning the great Paul Robeson.  A true renaissance man. 

Thunderheart was great. It’s a shame more people didn’t see it.

Sorry, but earl grey, to use the technical term, “sucks.” If you like milk with your tea, chose a good assam tea. If not, stick with darjeeling. And of course, the best tea of all is green tea. If green is “not your cup of tea,” then try oolong, which is half way between green and black. If you like drinks that double

I don’t know how this morphed into a hair discussion? My own observation is that straighter hair is considered less “ethnic” by many, many people. Some may straighten their hair for comfort, manageability, etc., but many do it because that is the “preferred” standard for hair. Just like many people get a nose job

I know it was a comedy, but I really felt for Wiig’s character by the end of the movie, “losing” her best friend to marriage and a wealthy lifestyle that she doesn’t share. It’s basically the same premise as “My Best Friend’s Wedding” — except that I felt NOTHING for Julia Roberts’ character.  Wiig out-acted Roberts,
