Because it was fine and people are acting like it’s Citizen Kane.

I kind of enjoyed Joker, but it’s the worst kind of movie. Which is to say, it’s a film that purports to be about serious things, but doesn’t have anything to say beyond how terrible the way it is, because it can’t commit to anything. The best you can say about it is that it’s an examination of how white male…

Jesus Christ they are both way too old for this shit.

ETA: Capri pants were very popular in the 50s, fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn wore them all the time and looked stunning. I suspect Ivanka is trying to look as effortlessly classy and fashionable as Hepburn which frankly fills me with disgust and rage

Vanity yes, taste and good judgement no.

Why wear suits 2 sizes too big or ties 4 inches too long? The man didn’t even know how to properly wear a waistcoat when he met the Queen. The oversized suits “make him look slimmer” and the ties “taller.” I’m sure he believes the orange makes him look healthier. There is literally no rationale to this man’s behavior.…

Television criticism, in part derived from schools of thought in film criticism, which evolves from theater criticism, has mostly always included some kind of review/ranking system in the modern consumerist age to allow consumers to make a more informed purchase decision. However; the ongoing nature of many tv series,…

One more time for the people in the back:

Review grades are not an abstract rubric of quality overall, nor are they graded based on genres. Review “grades” at the AVC are INTERNAL TO THE SHOW ITSELF. Not all television serves the same purpose, nor “entertains” the same way. Mindless fun just is not the same as the…

Christian Bale was a pretty hot Moses. I would consider it. 

Alice is such a great villain. I was concerned before the show started that she would end up being like Jervis Tetch was on Gotham (i.e. terrible), but she’s got the perfect combination of smarts, resources and craziness to be an awesome Batverse villain. And Skarsten is knocking it out of the park with her…

She also framed their dad for killing his wife.

It may be the same genre, but it’s a different kind of show with different things to say. It’s OK to prefer Tolstoy to Dickens, but both are classics for a reason.

They’re dealing with this dire, tragic situation and the next word out of Tyler’s mouth is “I want to have a baby.” SERIOUSLY DUDE

Caroline Dries’s tenure as showrunner of “The Vampire Diaries” coincided with my least favorite seasons of that once-beloved show, so I didn’t hold out high hopes for this.

But honestly, this is right up there with the final season of “Arrow” at the top of the pack for me this year. Partly it’s because this feels new…

Well the problem with that is again, they haven’t shown us anything to suggest that there’s any truth to Alice’s accusations. We just have her word on that.

Well, that was a real gutpunch of an episode. As far as mid-season climaxes go, it did not disappoint.

You might want to look up the actual, literal definition of racism there, champ.

Google literally owns Gmail, there’s no excuse why they couldn’t get codes out in time. I don’t think the late arrival of the codes is lawsuit-worthy, but at the same time what was the point of pre-ordering if you have to wait after launch? People are literally able to buy Stadia right now and play it. This is a…

Even if such a service existed, you have to have some intimate technical understanding of such a service to even begin such a large scale distribution. Sadly I could never see a singularly focused company like Google having such experience with this type of service.

I dream of a far-off future when humans will be able to quickly distribute small amounts of information nigh-instantaneously through some sort of automated process.
