I can’t think of another actor with the cachet of goodwill and affection from the public to take up the role. Tom Hanks is going to be magnificent in it. He’s Tom Hanks.

This movie is many things, but wacky is not one of them. 

Am I the only one seeing the strong resemblance between the P’Ting and the Plutonians from Rick and Morty? Same height, same build, same shape face, even the same four antennae. Someone on Doctor Who is a Rick and Morty fan. 

Is it too much to ask to check for typos?   Three ‘Shelia’s for every ‘Sheila’ is a bit much. 

That is literally what I was going to type, right down to the words used. Wow. Well done!

Here’s what I don’t understand: Ansari is in charge of Master of None. He’s written and directed episodes where he plays a version of himself that knows how to treat women with respect and hear them out.

Then when he’s not in front of a camera, he’s not the least bit interested in acknowledging his date’s choice. She…

Someone you’ve never met, having a version of your idea is sadly nothing new.

God DAMN it. 

Lord, I hope he doesn’t get fired for the fallout from this. 

Dressing something up in STAR WARS will only get you so far. It still has to be a good story. ROGUE ONE was an amazing gut punch. It filled in details that added some context to the already brilliant A NEW HOPE.

SOLO didn’t do that. The hero learns very little, changes almost not at all, and we see him lie, cheat and…

A.A. Dowd, I respectfully disagree in the strongest of terms. Between Blade II, Pan’s Labyrinth and The Shape of Water, Guillermo Del Toro has turned out some genuinely fantastic pictures.    

That’s no bald cap. Myers shaved his head.

I adore this movie. I hesitate to say “when I was a kid” because I never stopped loving it. I think I must have seen it a dozen times over the years. It was one of the first I bought on VHS, now I proudly own a digital copy. It’s held up remarkably.

TARDIS, full stop.

I hope it gets renewed. Its viewership has tapered off. Ordinarily they’d announce a show’s renewal earlier than the end of the season. It’s not a good sign.

Is there any word if Crazy Ex-Girlfriend has been renewed for a fourth season?

I feel like we just got a glimpse of the back of Darth Vader’s pasty skull.

Sometimes a picture doesn’t have enough oomph to get made on its own— or if made, not enough heft to garner much attention. Weaving The God Particle into an existing franchise can only help its visibility.

Who is Marica?

I had to.
