I wish when they brought UNIT back in the 2005 series, it was a underfunded organization that was considered a joke with a shoestring budget and still working from offices and using equipment from the 1970s.

“it’s the first time [since the original reboot] that we have a story that feels as compelling as the first one.”

I’ve gotten some and they snap and articulate well but are still very cheap feeling plastic. They have no heft to them and again everything is 3d printed cheap colors instead of painted or diecast.

This...

Exactly. Not only that, you have to access it on your old purple-and-clear iMac computer that you still have in storage... it’s secure because it’s so out of date no one uses it as a vector of access any longer!

See, I stopped reading DC & Marvel comics because everything sets up everything else. Unless you’re reading one of the few isolated series (Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, the fairly recent Howard the Duck miniseries), you kind of have to read ALL OF THEM to get the full picture. I ain’t got time for that. I ain’t got the…

Zack Snyder: “I’m done with DC.”

The point of continuity in comics (and things based on comics) is ultimately that if you buy, say, an Aquaman book and a Batman book if the Batman book completely undermines a thing that happened in the Aquaman book, then it’s a bummer to have bought both. It’s not a problem if Book A and Book B ignore teach other…

rudy was a terrible pick for #1 (should be brians song or FNL), but seeing any given sunday in the top 5 is a worse sin. You take out all the slo-mos and that movies run time decreases by about 30m. Only movie I have ever walked out on.

Did you just sleep through the last two decades?

You mean the gameshow based on a TV gameshow that is supposed to be unfair is  . . . unfair?

But that’s not what he’s saying. He saying that adult-oriented stuff like Joker will NOT be part of the connected DC universe, but labelled Elseworld. Since Authority is part of the DC Universe, then it's according to this logic, not adult-oriented. Despite the source material absolutely being so. 

In one of the YT videos, they blamed Picard for insisting on FOUR!!! LIGHTS!!!

That was the dumbest thing I've ever seen associated with Star Trek.

Many of those Boomer film school brats’ movies come off as conservative or even borderline reactionary, though most of them (if not all of them) probably have liberal political views. Zemeckis in particular. Remember how Marty “invents” rock n’roll in Back to the Future when Chuck Berry hears him playing over the…

I know there are those who like the Precinct 13 remake and, like all things related to works of art, who am I to say anyone’s opinion is wrong!

That’s a tough question. I’m gonna go with Escape from New York. The general feel of the whole film is just something different and special. The Thing and Halloween are runners up.

Of course Big Trouble in Little China is the easy answer. The kitsch, the campiness and the pure fun of it all. It’s like Roadhouse, a movie so bad it’s good.

Big trouble in Little China. Easy decision, even though I truly love just about all of his films. 

There’s something really pathetic about the need to make “adult” versions of kid shows. The need to monetize existing IP is a cancer that infects everything.
