Just like all my clothes as I got older. 

It was nice that they finally let Boba Fett do something useful and cool in a Star Wars story.  He’s been skating on his reputation for 40 years now.

oooh yeah! the Chinese fleets of the Agrarian age were really quite amazing. in fact, most of the maritime technologies used by Europeans were actually Chinese technologies traded along the Silk Road.  believe it or not, the only reason why China didn’t come to dominate the world stage at the time is mostly due to…

I like it? It removes a bit of the preternatural, almost-twins creepiness of the Hardy Boys, and I imagine the age gap creates a more mismatched, fun dynamic.

(Who’s next: The Bobbsey Twins? Encyclopedia Brown? Amelia Bedelia?)

Wasn’t this, like, just a movie about a bunch of Highlanders?

I’m not saying that people can’t learn and grow in terms of taste, but people seem to forget how much people loved Ready Player One when it came out, including The AV Club, which gave the book an “A.” I feel like that evolution is way more interesting as a phenomenon than talking about how good or bad the first book…

RP1 really is just Snow Crash but Stupid and Badly Written.

Boyega deserves a lot of credit for being brash and not standing down about this, when it would have been so easy to just complain about it privately to friends and colleagues while staying silent publicly....

All I want for Christmas each year is to not have to deal with Christmas each year.

A little disappointed the Green Arrow & the Canaries spinoff didn’t get picked up. Oliver’s son William and Diggle’s son JJ in particular were great characters, and of course the Canaries. 

Real life has become absurdist, that’s high art if I’ve ever seen it.

So the thing is, most fast food itself doesn’t smell to bad when its fresh.

When the said the Democrats needed a big tent, I didn’t think they meant to fumigate the White House! HEYO!

All J. J. Abrams movies are entertaining spectacles that don’t stand up to logical analysis. It’s who he is.

Looking at it right now, Biden’s pulling ahead in Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Arizona. If he can hold onto those, he wins. Though, it’ll be the first time since 1960 that the President was elected without winning Ohio

So this is the fate of the one they call Olyphant, to roam the great television landscape from show to show to play a role simply known as: Marshal.

To echo a sentiment I saw on another board: Favreau’s boldest choice may have been not titling this episode “Krayt Expectations.” 

There’s a video of him performing it in studio, and it’s amazing to see about a dozen other guests sat around in awe like he’s The Comedian’s Comedian

The way Wiger draws out and soaks in every “fuck” in “Monster Fuck” gets me every single time.  It’s somehow both contemptuous and delighted.
