Hey, everybody! It’s that guy!
This is really good casting. JK Simmons’ voice was already who I was hearing as that character as I was reading the book. (Can’t wait to see my boy Robot.)
“Song of the South” is exactly the reason why Elba is right.
I broadly hate praising the Disney machine, but I thought their approach with Disney+ was the right one - put disclaimers in front of potentially offensive stuff that let people know what they’re getting into.
Isn’t this post missing the obligatory AVclub “he is wrong and stupid” judgement tacked on to the end?
I may have a man crush on this guy.

Says the guy who complained about people making murals honoring an unarmed man who was killed by police for having a fake $20 bill because he had a criminal history and cares more about abusers than their victims because “what about their livelihood”, and who thinks toxic work environments can be magically solved by HR

Still framing the Gawker demise as “a billionaire with a vendetta financing a lawsuit,” like Gawker didn’t deserve to lose the lawsuit?
Yeah, I feel the same way. I kinda feel like she should become some sort of spiritual successor to Batwoman but not Batwoman. That it should be a different show.
Just a lot of chaos!
Hazel, I wish you hadn’t touched this topic. I know the Kimmel thing keeps getting tossed around on Jez, and if you had read the comments on those prior pieces you wouldn’t be looking this foolish.
Everybody knows that Kimmel was that guy. Corolla is still that guy. The difference (and one that should make all of us…
