I know it's why the internet exists, but I find this type of nitpicking to be a dumb waste of time. Kind of like writing this comment!

I believe that's what we call "false equivalency." To get back on topic, even the most progressive of TV shows is going to have some problematic elements that are worth discussing.

It's almost as if someone's work over multiple seasons of TV can be feminist AND have problematic elements that are worth discussing. I'm not sure why it has to be one or the other.

I agree, 6 is the absolute worst. Love the rest of them, though.

I appreciate that your idea hinges on being a sequel to part 5, which is the NOES movie nobody likes but me.

Maybe it's because I'm all in on everything the Wachowskis do, but I loved Sense8 from the first episode. I'm kind of tired of the "doesn't get good till episode 4" argument, though that ep is particularly amazing.

It can be hard to explain the concept of camp to the camp illiterate. When I say I absolutely love films like Batman & Robin, Mac & Me, Showgirls, and Troll 2 it may look like I have unimaginably bad taste in movies. Not everyone understands the notion of so-bad-it's-good cinema, and even when they do they still may

What's with Comedy Central's lonnnnng breaks between seasons? It feels like this show and Broad City have been gone for about 3 years, though maybe it feels longer because the world is a daily hellscape of non-stop misery now.

Is calling something a 90-minute movie that feels like a 3-hour movie a compliment?

You're almost as angry about the continued existence of Ryan Reynolds as I am. We should be friends.

Ryan Reynolds is living proof that the world will give mediocre white men a million chances to succeed. And when this proves to be his 600th non-Deadpool bomb he'll get another dozen chances to topline a movie.

The strange thing about MLA's argument is that it seems to rest on the fact that all homophobia is created equal, when reality is much more complex than that.

James Wan is great. I actually forgot he directed Saw until I saw (har har) this comment. It looks like a strange outlier in his filmography now days.

I think the correct answer when it comes to defending Eli Roth is…who cares? He hasn't been a relevant filmmaker in the horror industry in over a decade, unless you live in an alternate universe where Green Inferno and Knock Knock were seen by anyone. Cabin Fever was fun when it first came out, though.

There are few things less shocking than this album getting a good review from The AV Club.

I get annoyed by the anti-pop bias that's prevelant in a lot of music discussion, like this one that goes out of its way to bash "MmmBop" and "Barbie Girl" up front. It's not a crime for music to be fun and catchy and ultimately disposable, and hey, since we all collectively remember those two songs maybe they're not

Aside from The Velvet Rope, I didn't own or listen to any of these. Are we sure this is the good list?

That's the same thing I said in my comment. Sugar Ray is light, breezy summer fun, and they lack the obnoxious nasal aggressiveness of the much more hateable Smash Mouth. I can see finding them completely forgettable, but who has the energy to hate them?

This entire article is very Old Men Yell At Clouds. First, I will argue that Sugar Ray is too breezy and lightweight to truly hate unless your soul is just filled with anger that bursts out in random directions. Second, I could have a good time with a Robyn album and a Celine Dion Greatest Hits. This is pretty much

I've thought about doing the same, but I'm still slogging through the Young Roland section. It's boring and predictable and contains no surprises or forward momentum.
