Dungeons & Dragons was the perfect vehicle for him. I like Pine generally, but D&D was the first time I was like, this is the exact type of role he needs to be playing.

Works for me. I’ve only ever found Chris Pratt to be “aggressively fine.”

I watched Nope again last night after reading this article and have to say that I enjoyed it much more my second viewing.  It was just a fun movie.

“By that same regard, though, it’s likely some longtime fans might find it hard to stomach the changes to their favorite show, particularly its aforementioned shift from pure sci-fi to fantasy.”

This feels like one of those things where a show or movie that barely anyone watches “raises a middle finger to its haters” to give the impression that anyone is actually still talking about it. I haven’t heard anything about this show since like the first week it came out.

fucking clickbait headline implying a voice actor had died

This. If Zoolander 2 had to flop for him to make Severance and Escape at Dannemora then we’re all the better that it did. 

The blue-plate special is a pan-seared nothing with a side of nothing rings. Wash that down with an ice cold glass of Diet Nothing.

I think your irony detector is broken

Yeah I agree with all your points. It was great to binge this one but a few days later I noticed that I remember very little of it (and I was not multitasking) and that I actually binged it to “get it out of the way” and... and because binge is the only metric that matters to streamers to consider their show a success.

Or you could just not bother with jokes, they aren’t your forte.

Counterpoint: the episode that got me into watching Pitch Meeting in the first place was for The Last Airbender. It’s still my favorite Pitch Meeting, and I still haven’t seen the movie.

I’ve heard people say they were bored. I don’t really watch horror movies, don’t love jump scares, etc. I thought it was absolutely terrifying. The tension level just kept ratcheting up and up and up, a lot of what’s scary is in little details and little pieces that feel possible and otherwise left to your…

What an extraordinarily obnoxious thing to exclaim in a theater.

Yes. Still the best and most effective found footage movie out there.

...crash course on who gets to eat who out in the Wasteland.

Huh? What she do?

I once lost my face while playing The Unknown.

Oh, for sure, from the point of view of social policy, I get that. I just don’t think ANOF’s position was “jailhouse snitching is bad social policy and Tim Allen should have known the full sociopolitical ramifications of it in 1978.”

I really like this show. I wish they released it one episode at a time so it would stay relevant for more than a few weeks.
