I’ve been part of small companies bought by larger ones (unfortunately not an owner!). Trust me, there is no downside for the owner getting fired. The contracts are ALWAYS written to keep the owner around for a few years (mostly so they don’t start another company and steal the employees you paid a lot of money for).…

I thought they were ok to good. I think they will make a good TV show. My female friends that like Sci-fi really liked them a lot. I think it will be interesting to see if much changes because of the age change of the protagonist (in the books she was a young adult - maybe ~18), in the show she will obviously be much…

1) Melania is just waiting for him to die

Please god, let them accidentally jump 67 years backwards for one episode into the old west.

My god, is this Walking Dead nightmare ever going to end?

The core problem with the show was that the original show runners didn’t realize that Star Trek is an ensemble show. And because of the contract they signed with Sonequa Martin-Green, there was really no way they could ever fix it once they realized the problem.  It was really doomed from the beginning.

I can’t see any scenario where the stock doesn’t go down another 80% in the next 5-8 years. They just aren’t that big of a car company. In very simple terms they are smaller than BMW in every measurable way (employees, # of plants, # cars produced, models, R&D budget, etc...) and yet worth 6 times as much. And there…

Yes, but SpaceX is pretty great.

Now that the big automakers are turning their entire R&D budgets to EV, it is only a matter of a few years before Tesla is massively out-gunned. It’s simple economics. If he doesn’t move into new areas he is going to be sitting on second rate tech, below average build quality, parts issues, a very small overall market…

The Boring company’s whole business model was cozying up to politicians to remove safety requirements to make tunnel construction massively cheaper. Why not apply the same business model to nuclear plants?

In their defense, Olivia Munn is probably the only person that I would 100% blame for breaking up a marriage.

Batman Forever really shouldn’t be on the list. Even putting quality aside, the Schumacher Batmans are more of a reboot then a continuation of the series. The entire cast and crew are different.

The rumors were (and take this with a HUGE grain of salt) that in the vacuum of a lot of people leaving/laid-off, that she claimed to be a lot higher in the org than she actually was, in an effort to use the disruption to end up in a very high position at Twitter.

It’s a terrible practice, but I think it can be traced primarily to sales people trying to take accounts with them.  But I think it has now gone to so far that it is ridiculous.

It’s a really terrible trend. Part of this whole infantilizing your work force.

David Rasche is such an under-rated actor. He is great in this and he was wonderful in “Barbarians at the gate” (playing a very similar character) I always hope he gets more screen time!

When Costner’s gang took the first person out to Wyoming to be murdered, I was like, “oh, they’re actually bad guys! This might be interesting!” But no, they’re still completely the good guys!

Watched the first episode and it ended with a “shocking!!!” sexual scene that made very little sense just to try and hook the watcher. The whole episode was marginal, although parts of the premise I did like a lot, so given the indicator of the level of writing from the end of first episode, it’s a pass from me.

There is no way that Connor Roy is not buy Twitter or a Twitter-equivalent before the end of this season!

The real irony is that they had a great premise (that they even hinted at in the first 10 minutes!). A group of people in Star Fleet had the logs from Original Spock’s ship, which meant they had the history of the federation for the next 80+ years. Should they use it? Or should they, in a sense, apply the “Prime…
