So far the show has shown that the central idea, the plague, is basically set in stone. Small specifics can be changed but they haven’t even come close to finding a way to stop the plague.

Bull. Shit. I’ve seen a lot of people sling a lot of really blatant racism around and then claim they’re not racist at all.

I love how white men that claim to live in fear of ‘government tyranny’ and believe that it is righteous to rebel against it are the first ones to insist that all black people should strictly obey every police officer like a submissive dog.

With all the dumbed down whining yet to come, I put it to these people just enjoying the feeling of thinking that they’re ‘smarter’ than other people because they enjoy games with arcane, tedious mechanics. Any effort to care about, I dunno, fun results in pandering to the dirty casuals.

Yeah. Oh, here’s a ring for you to find in this endless sea of grass! That’s the only way you’ll know where I was.

He says why- he watched Angharad get run over and then was blaming himself for not being able to carry out his mission. The last thing that Joe says before driving away from Nux after he’s thrown onto the rig and trips is “Mediocre!”- essentially rejecting him and his efforts as insufficient. Nux connects this to…

The outrage over Ledger came mainly from the initial casting. Most anybody who was upset over the initial promotional image were just having confirmation bias. A lot of the people upset here were at least open minded to Leto—if just for the fact that they do remember Ledger.

I’m soooooo sick of hearing this. No one complained about Ledger’s portrayal of Joker when it was revealed. No one. There was some un-ease sure, because they weren’t sure if Ledger could portray the Joker properly. This was because of his film line-up. The only notable thing he ever did was Broke Back Mountain (sure…

The Heath Ledger “outrage” wasn’t even remotely the same as this. People were very doubtful when he was cast... that was pretty much it. When the first image of him as the Joker was released via that fantastic viral marketing campaign, most people immediately changed their tone. He looked awesome as the Joker. It was…

Moviegoers, mainly.

Yeah, good point. Maybe the phone booth can be a linking detail (links to the Matrix).

Did you see Rightious Kill? Holy balls that movie was bad. Also they didn't bother to hide Al's lifts at the end of it.

Also that movie about football bettering with MM. He was a giant ball of ham in that movie.

HBO GO BUT THANKS.

I loved this movie, and the biggest thing I took away from it was that 1997 me didn't know which way Keanu was going to go. I was actually hoping for a kind of "God Help Us All" ending where Kevin sires the Devilspawn and the whole world is in big trouble. The suicide I thought was a bit inconsequential when it…

Not gonna lie, 1997 me really loved the red head.

I don't know about the rest, but I could definitely see Jeffrey Beaumont changing his name to Dale Cooper and joining the FBI when he gets a bit older, because those two characters were amazingly weird in almost the same way.

From my (extremely limited) experience, that seems more common with TV writers and showrunners than you might think. I'm about halfway through a college course taught by a guy who's written for Boardwalk Empire and The Sopranos. We're writing a TV show as a class, and every week several students say they'd be more…

you're the new hipster

But what about Mitch Pileggi??
