The Golden Girls had a couple of episodes where characters they all apparently knew (but had never appeared before) showed up, and they all reeked of backdoor pilots... but weren’t (except for the shitty Empty Nest one). Then you realize the showrunners were trying to show that the characters had a life outside the…

I think the mural with Kratos dying is a red herring, or at the very least, something that doesn’t play out as it seems. About five minutes before this scene, after Kratos kills Baldur, Atreus has a bit of a breakdown where he wonders if that’s all there is to being a god - killing people close to you and constantly…

A reason a lot of people didn’t like S4 was because the characters were too isolated from each other (due, apparently, to the actor’s availability issues). This lead to some really weak bits, especially anything involving George Sr.

Don’t forget the ground-breaking concept of removing the “ensemble” from an “ensemble comedy”! Truly revolutionary stuff!

I have. It’s not really an appearance, though... more of a cameo for foreshadowing purposes.

I just finished replaying the Mass Effect trilogy, and this same question comes up with the Geth. I struggled with that question in those games too, and it’s actually a more interesting quandary, because the Geth are far more alien than the Hosts. In theory, the question of their sentience/sapience should be even…

I like that they didn’t reveal Odin and Thor (and some others). It’ll make their introductions in future games really significant, especially after the buildup in this one.

There are too many virgins/guys who don’t have sex a lot who don’t fantasize about raping women or treating them like property. There’s a degree of personal responsibility here.

If you can quote the portion of the event where Wolff mocks SHS’s appearance, you’ll have a great point.

Ah you were doing pretty well until you showed your hand here.

Er, so do you think kids should be in charge of kid’s shows?

Everything I read about Cannes makes it sound like the most insufferable experience ever. I’m still amazed loud, relentless booing from adults is somehow an expected reaction to movies screened there.

This was entirely predictable. Stacking his cabinet with incompetents was entirely intentional - once upon a time, Trump and Steve Bannon were big buddies, and Bannon has gone on record about wanting to entirely dismantle the federal government. Also, “starving the beast” is a timeless conservative tactic. If you run…

Oh good, more Ryan Murphy shows.

I always thought that Daphne and her family’s blatantly wrong British accents were a running joke. Her brother introduced later on is very obviously played by an Australian.

One day we are going to have the collective realization that she’s just not a good actress.

Seems pretty irresponsible to not pop the batteries out of your kid’s noise-making toy in a world full of monsters that hunt by sound.

Thank you. It’s probably my least favorite film that was meant to be taken seriously. I dislike it aggressively and it made me like all of the actors involved less.

But see, the joke is that woman have sex and also gross bodily functions! Where’s my fucking $20 million?

Maybe it’s a myth to make people feel better, but I read somewhere that lobsters don’t actually feel pain? Or rather, they don’t have a nervous system developed enough to process the pain.
