I think the “glimpse” promised in the headline is just the image up top of them with the Hulu logo (which at the very least, shows that they’ve kept their character designs just as we remember them rather than pointlessly updating them, so that’s promising). Good to finally know the date this is coming out, but I was…

Holy fuck, I actually missed the part where he suggested that Will Smith did a better job with the character than Robin Williams. That is batshit insane. I withdraw my original compliment about the article, it has officially lost all credibility!

Letterman also has an uncredited voice cameo as Beavis’ estranged father in Beavis and Butt-Head Do America.

Yeah, that ludicrous hot take really undermines what was otherwise a pretty interesting article. Thanks to last year’s lackluster remake, we have now seen what Aladdin would be like without Robin Williams, and the fact that it seems so completely empty and devoid of life without his manic pop culture riffing should…

(Scooches slightly closer to the center out of sheer embarrassment)

This reboot should be called What’s the Point?

Or, better yet, rather than shelling out 30 big ones for a soulless reboot that removes all the elements that were actually fun about the original, you could just watch the 1998 version on Disney+ for free!

Username/comment synergy!

It’s creepy to me how much modern Leftists are beginning to resemble pearl-clutching ‘90s-era conservatives that thought the corrupting influence of Mortal Kombat and Marilyn Manson were to blame for society’s ills, and that censorship is the answer. Remember way back when the left-wing used to actually be cool?

He’s learned a very valuable lesson about only saying these things privately from now on!

No thanks. Censorship is not a form of progress. You and Captain Splendid are very much alone in thinking that it is.

 It’s disingenuous to claim he “got” Nick Cannon in trouble here, that was very much his own doing, although he certainly did nod his head and say “yeah, that’s a good point” a lot during Nick’s deranged anti-Semitic conspiracy theorizing!

It’s interesting to compare the two: The Parks and Recreation one had a much more beneficial reason to exist, with it raising money for charity, whereas this one’s primary motivation is to spread awareness of NBC’s new streaming app, but does so in a way that feels very much in line with a show where much of the humor…

Kinda ironic that the replies seem funnier than this derivative thread itself, which I feel like I’ve almost certainly seen before as a listicle on Cracked or Buzzfeed.

This is an interesting point; I also noticed that the tone of this piece is much more willing to forgive than these sort of articles usually are. I can’t tell whether it’s that Gomez is just less obnoxiously catty than Hughes or Barsanti, or whether it’s buying into the fallacy that Black people can’t be racist (and…

I’m actually pleasantly surprised how many people on here have been able to grasp the nuance between depicting racism in a movie as a way of emphasizing that it’s a negative thing, versus assuming that its very presence in the movie surely must be the filmmakers projecting their own racism! It is a little jarring to…

Remember when this was a site you could go to discover exciting new music, rather than just hear about the latest by has-beens from a decade ago?

There definitely seems to be some jealousy going on over the fact that Jost is a smarmy, not particularly funny white guy who’s failing upwards, whereas Barsanti’s almost all of those things, but failing downwards.

It’s Barsanti. I’m about 90% sure he only said that because Che is black.

Isn’t there already more than enough -ish on the air?
