This is genuinely brilliant casting. I realize not everyone here likes the first movie, which fair enough even if I personally loved it, but it really went for something instead of playing it safe. So I really dig that they appear to again be rolling the dice instead of just making the first movie again. Have no idea…

Many of whom are also pig people.

Unhelpfulness pays the same and requires less effort.

Quit stealing my moves

Ummm... you didn’t post the trailer though.

This has the potential to be unhinged in all the best ways possible. I had no interest in a Joker sequel until I heard about Gaga’s involvement, so sign me up for opening day tickets.

Ugh I used to be excited for this project, but then I did research into the real HH Holmes and yeah no. Important to note Devil in the White City is a novel and not historical, the real Holmes actually never operated the Murder Castle. It was never officially opened, it was an extension of his true self, which was…

Look, I know we give the A.V. Club a lot of shit these days, so I figured a bit of praise is in order. This is an amazing phrase and bonus points for using my favorite word:

The ol’ Mariska Hargitay strategy.

I’m so ready for this. don’t even have strong feelings about this franchise, but Trachtenberg has really proved himself as a consistent and dependable action-horror director, and Amber Midthunder is fucking awesome and hasn’t been used well since Legion. this looks extremely up my alley

Like the saying goes, good work if you can get it!

It’s about Pick-El, one of Superman’s other cousins whose movie was also delisted.

Yeah, but pickles have notoriously low self-esteem, so they probably won’t complain.

It’s wild to think that the United States exists because the French really liked hats.

We’re the product, but sure.

Damn. I really wish they’d release this to theaters.

AV Club commenters: “It sucks how the new management fired what few decent writers were left and hired a bunch of interns to incompetently paraphrase Hollywood Reporter articles. Also you can kind of hear Ana de Armas’s accent in that one trailer.”

Is it weird to be... kinda excited for a Pokemon release for the first time in years? There’s the possibility of a novel time-travel plot thread and the open-world structure just might make exploration in a mainline entry actually interesting again.

Considering how antagonistic we are toward the writers, editors, and executives, I’m just amazed it didn’t happen sooner. But I think it’d be great if it all just turned into a long-term game of comradely snarking.

Okay, the AVClub reaching the point where its headlines are overtly antagonistic towards the readers and commenters is pretty dang funny.
