    Cataclysm had some great aspects (as did the O.G. release, of course) but WotLK was hands-down the pinnacle of World of Warcraft.

    Wait, I thought he was YOUR cousin Vinnie.

    It's been a little encouraging to see some people slowly changing their minds about the whole thing now that the trial is over and they're not getting delicious gossip morsels every day, but it's still a goddamned shame how easily the public POV was railroaded into being on Depp's side almost entirely because he's the

    Every character and every plot felt like they filmed the first draft of White’s notes full of leftover ideas that (rightfully) didn’t make it into Season 1. This was probably the biggest dropoff in season-to-season quality since Downton Abbey’s first-to-second season.

    I’m not going to pick apart this review or chastise anyone who enjoyed this season. Please carry on enjoying the entertainment you enjoy, and I usually don’t like it when people who dislike a show pop into the comments just to rip into the fans. Normally I just stay away if I’m not a fan.

    But I really enjoyed the first

    We’ve been using Three’s Company to describe that couple’s entire subplot. Every episode there’s been some contrived misunderstanding, only because they use slow pans and ominous music instead of quick cuts and a laugh track, they're trying to sell it as foreboding instead of wackiness. 

    Because, and I take no joy in saying this, the writing this season has been very weak. 

    In my opinion: because this season learned all the wrong lessons from season 1.

    I love how you can tell who's an asshole just by how they use the word "woke." 

    I agree that, in a vacuum, the ride doesn’t feel offensive (especially if they changed the voices and did away with some of the signage with shitty wannabe Black slang,) but I think the idea here boils down to "fuck this movie, let's not even remind people that it exists." In that respect, I applaud the re-theming. I

    I love learning about recycled props at Disney. Those robots who entertain people as they wait in line for Star Tours? They’re repurposed goose animatronics from America Sings (others are still geese in the Splash Mountain finale.) That’s why they have little tails, which - y’know - moat robots don’t need.

    Yeah, ask one specific person what they think. Surely his opinion (while valuable) will outweigh someone who did months of research into the film's and stories' origins and production. 

    The whole movie showed blacks in a positive way.”

    I agree 100% except for your opinion that Rogue One was anything more than mediocre. 

    It’s not “Andor’s” fault, but there is an annoying subset of the show’s fans who seem to think they can somehow like it MORE by knocking down other shows.

    King of New York is great too

    In earlier episodes, I got the impression that her daughter had a genuinely rebellious streak in her; and that maybe she saw her mother as a shitty Pelosi-an image of the hated status quo, regardless of her politics. That impression has softened in her last few appearances, but given the kid’s approximate age, I still

    To quote MST3K, “most people are morally ambiguous, which explains our random dying pattern.”

    Counterpoint: the royal family is a fucking cesspool and this show has probably been taking it easy on them while simultaneously pretending to tell the “real” story, a la “The Social Network.”

    “the government made things seem worse than they were.”
