Dwayne Johnson is an avatar of brand maintenance, not an actor. And Dave Bautista is definitely a way better actor with a much more interesting filmography, but he is really coming off as having an inferiority complex because of his background. “I wanna be a REAL actor!” 

Yeah, for some reason I thought this was a more straightforward thriller thing, but this looks super fun. Bring on the non-remake non-cinematic universe R-rated horror comedy, thank you.

Just a couple zip codes away from me, so this has been a weird news story. Hopefully he had enough coke in his system to keep his heart active going into surgery

Insuring a 600 pound actor on a movie set would be impossibly expensive and no production budget would allow it. I don’t have any malice toward fat people, but being 600 pounds is a health nightmare, and shooting around that would be a disastrous clusterfuck, just from a logistical standpoint. People at that weight…

Parasite has one of my favorite jump scares of all time, but yeah, it’s not a horror movie

His parents being cliche unsupportive hard-asses when they were famously beautiful, super supportive very kind people who were their son’s biggest fans cracks me up along with him having the biopic-required sex and drug nadir when he has such a squeaky-clean reputation. Delightful. 

I guess that’s a reasonable response? But these days I honestly don’t assume that they even have editors on this site. I think some business algorithm assigns articles based on what they can’t yet generate automatically with AI

She’s not chill enough to have ever done acid 

In her first episode she mentioned smoking weed in the past like it was a startling moral transgression that would really freak what’s-his-name out. It seems like she’s escalated her lie because the first one didn’t have much impact. Just like those evangelical church dorks do

Imagine reviewing a show that anticipated the exact flavor of critique the Twitter-verse would run with (“This show is manipulative and exploitive”) and leaned WAY the fuck into it in fascinating ways, and just completely missing the point to such an astonishing degree that it’s not even clear if you have actually…

Yeah, he probably shouldn’t be reviewing this show. He doesn’t seem to fully understand what it is, and that should be disqualifying. He should be reviewing a more straightforward comedy.

I honestly think that if I were this reviewer’s editor and received a piece that indicated they didn’t know the OD was part of The Whole Thing, I would take them off these reviews immediately. It’d be like reviewing What We Do In The Shadows and being baffled by a character turning into a bat. 

Another guy who always gets cast a hapless comic relief idiot because he’s fat but is actually a gifted actor. Opposite side of the coin that features buff action hero looking guys who are secretly incredible doofy comic actors.

“I don’t read past headlines but I like being Mad Online”

I feel like every cardiologist in the world winces when he starts talking. I can hear his choked heart juddering over his lav mic

I was somewhere between disinterest and dread on a sequel to Joker (not because of the pretty good movie, but because of the Twitter of it all), but when I heard the rumors that it might be some bizarre musical romance, I got really excited. Fuck yes. Please. Do more weird, potentially dumb shit, Hollywood.

My jaw actually dropped. I was like, “WHOA!! G/O Media allowed a memorable turn of phrase to show up in an article?!”

I didn’t know it existed until this news started breaking, and I still don’t know what it’s for or what’s on it

Sounds like the perfect job. You show up to an air conditioned set during normal work hours with minimal costuming requirements, play a character you could do in your sleep, get paid fabulously for it, and go down as one of the classic TV canon characters, all with plenty of time to be with your kids, especially…

Best thing to happen around here in a long time
