Russo Bros are adult children who want to seem cool but they’re actually just pick-me girls for Gen Z.

Do they ever explain what their vision is? I didn’t read past the first two sentences.

Barbie and Oppenheimer didn’t become the biggest blockbusters of 2023 based on older generations alone.

Apparently, the film is both a prequel and a sequel, alternating timelines with Mufasa’s story and Simba and Nala raising their daughter

He's moderately attractive and deeply unthreatening

Stand up there in a room with POTUS, as well as hundreds of people you’re making fun of, and see how you do.

It feels like almost a million years ago, watching Jon Stewart make one last desperate plea on the eve of the 2004 election for voters to please make his job harder. Comedy was great under Bush, but imagine how boring it could have been under Kerry.

I honestly did think about trying but after a while the place was so stuffed with suits that I just had to get out. Plus I decided that trying to sneak in to an event where the president is would prooobably end with me being detained by the Secret Service. 

Ok, but “The New York Post is like getting a summary of the New York Times read by a crackhead” legitimately made me laugh out loud. And leaving Michael Che out of the act in order to “Stand in solidarity with President Biden in also losing all his Black support” was a pretty trenchant observation. 

That’s presumably even closer to her than I was biking through the Wellington neighbourhood of Seatoun when she was living in a house there while filming Ghost in the Shell.

I think that he didn’t attend the one with Michelle Wolfe, and they used covid as a reason to not have it again for a while. The Michelle Wolfe choice still amazes me... how could ANYONE in the Trump administration think that she would be a good choice for them?!?

“just sort of a waste of everyone involved’s presumably very expensive time”

I thought the joke about the world being backwards when an 81 year old Catholic is the one fighting for abortion rights was pretty good. But yeah pretty weak set. I feel kinda bad for him though, he’s caught in between a rock and a hard place of “you’re here to makes jokes about the president/media but it’s an…

I thought it still happened but he just didn’t attend so no one cared much.

They didn’t cancel it, he just didn’t go.

it’s really funny that this is simultaneously the one that has the pedigree to maybe be a decent movie, but is also the property that should be a movie least of all.

Look up Peter Serafinowicz‘s Kevin Spacey actor studio impression. It was before any allegations and it’s pretty scathing. Many people knew before the public did. 

Is the hint “please introduce me to her”? That’s the vibe I’ve personally been sending out, to no avail presently...

Not that I disagree in principle, but most people are at work right now. Me? I’m trapped in a cycle of despair.

Forget Anne Hathaway, take the hint about celebrity gossip, AVClub!
