He looks like Ralph Fiennes!

When considering that all the characters in the movie are supposed to be 18 or 19 ... and many of the scare-olympic (or whatever they were called) events were about defeating 13 year olds & babysitters ... I left the theater with a big grin: M.U. was a gigantic, feature-length rip on teenagers. I loved it.
I thought this ep was a solid A. The only thing I’d quibble with is Elena not using her bionic hands. (lol: “They have their uses.” My brain’s in the gutter, sorry.)
I think the show handled it about the best they could. After Mack skated through the 1930's without much more than a couple of sideways glances, the show had to do something ... if they had done nothing on race, it would have felt even weirder. May and Ellena caught some shit too. It didn’t pull me out of the show at…
If there were a drinking game to come out of this show, I would drink every time Nandor says “Colon Roe-been-son.” Cracks me up every time.
It would almost make sense if Santa Muerte and Magda are deities with so little following and so few worshipers that Maria is basically the last person on the planet that believes in them. That would make Magda’s desperation for one last apocalyptical gambit and SM’s resigned sadness seem justified: They’re both about…
This is funny, but Spielberg and WB cross paths infrequently. Tom Cruise from Minority Report might work. The cast of the new West Side Story? Celie from the Color Purple. Oprah Winfrey’s Sofia could march up and sock the opponent in the face for the fatality move.
I remember her getting axed on E.R. by bitchy doctor whats-her-face. And kicking the shit out of Raul Julia in Street Fighter!
I try not to form preconceived opinions about GOP reps with sunken, shady, cruel eyes like Cotton and Gaetz. If they were wearing tank tops and shorts at a church picnic, something would still tell me—some little voice would warn me—to sit way the hell away from those guys. I try.
Look, I get it. It’s a funny joke. I’m being a cheek just trying to debate this issue. But seriously though, after Guillermo just spent the season advocating for more rights, he’s going to be all proud that on top of (I guess is already a ho-hum chore) scraping up Laszlo and Nandor’s jizz from all over the house, that…
Good finale. I like that they took out Psycho-Fate in Act One. I think the spot where it felt like Charlie got cheated out of some scenes came just before the Trapped in the TV episode. All the Legends died in the zombie fight. And suddenly it was all on Charlie to rescue the entire team. The cliffhanger felt like we…
I assumed they would have found a compromise where one could be in the totem and the other could be out - switching places. But now that I say that out loud, I see that A) Behrad would begin having chest pains whenever Zari 1.0 was out, & B) It would be a little too much like Caitlin on Flash. Logically, though, maybe…
That was a pretty good sight gag. I guess I prefer the low-range to medium range stuff here. The Werewolf jumping off the roof of the abandoned Circuit City in season one is my favorite. Craig Robinson’s “Mosquito” Vampire Hunter spinning around in the air earlier this season. I liked everything with the Barron last…
So Guillermo’s side business going forward indefinitely is collecting and packaging vampire sperm? I guess it’s no worse than collecting months-old dead body parts. It seems a little messy even for him. Also, how exactly is Guillermo proving “all the sperm the witches could want?” I mean, is it all Laszlo and Nandor,…
RIP the Nadja Doll?!
I agree. This show works best with the bare minimum use of cgi and the maximum use of practical effects.
“You can add this installment to the small list of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes that don’t feature a single use of powers.”
One thing about this show, and I hope I’m not jinxing it, is that they have a pretty good barometer that knows when the audience is getting frustrated with the withheld information. The show withholds it ... but usually comes clean at a decent pace. Especially when they have a lot of material to get through. If we as…
Yeah. This works. Do a two year time jump. Have the new girl show up. All the original cast can be like “Jeez, don’t ask about what happened to Kate Kane.” Batwoman has disappeared. Proceed with show.
No spoilers. Just that the show is generally following a plan.
