Can you explain what being "a standout example of bi/gay-itude" entails? Because if I understood you correctly, you seem to be implying that a gay or bisexual character needs to display some sort of "gay attitude" for their non-heterosexual orientation to matter. Just because it's a non-issue for the character it

Somehow, I'm not surprised. Maybe it's because this is the same Andrew Lloyd Webber who thought that producing a stage sequel to Phantom of the Opera was a good idea.

Oh, bugger. I don't really see Starz as a staple of quality, and the showrunners' resumes do not fill me with a sense of hope. I'm expecting this series to be okay at best. That's a shame, because I do think that, with the right creative team, American Gods could be worked into a terrific series.

Pfft. That can't be it. There is sex and gratuitous nudity in the book, and plenty of opportunities to add some more.

Why do you have to see this? Because you have the good fortune of living in a civilized country that does not oppress its minorities. You should be grateful of this right, since there are still countries in the world that deems some of its own citizens unwanted, thus forcing them to keep away from the public eye.

Well, that makes sense. They do seem like they're isolated on their very own plotline separate from the rest of the cast. Neither of them contributes much to the bigger plotlines.

Ah, Lost. I remember being completely obsessed with this show from start to finish, and yet I feel no desire to rewatch any of its episodes again. I do recognize that it had a lot of good and interesting elements to it, but for some reason I remember its weaknesses first when I look back at it.

Urge to quote the film festival episode… rising! Must… resist… Too… easy…

I have such a confusing relationship with this show. I keep watching it, but I really have to work myself up to a certain mood to be able to ignore everything that's so, so wrong with it.

I used to feel that way about Matthew McConaughey, too, back when he was starring in crimes against humanity like "How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days" and "Failure to Launch", but lately he's been choosing very good roles that really allow him to show his range. While his range may not go too far beyond "Southern", he's

As a shameless Gambit fangirl, I am officially OK with this! And that's a strong OK, not one of those pesky sarcastic ones. He's not the first one I would have liked to see playing Gambit (oh yes, I have a wish list), but I'm optimistic about this casting choice. Channing Tatum is a pretty decent actor as far as I'm

I don't think Avatar is stupid simply fo having intentional parallels to Pocahontas. I think it's a nice idea that could have been interesting, had the execution not been so tediously dated. I'm not talking about the plot elements here, but rather the themes and the perspective, which only recycled tedious tropes

Ugh. I'm glad I don't seem to be the only one who was completely underwhelmed by Avatar. All the movie had going for it was the state of the art CGI, so unless every single one of the sequels manages to wow audiences with a new tehcnological innovation, I'm really not expecting much from these movies.

What is this - strong, thick-headed thinking from a backwards baffoon? Gosh darnit, have I lived to see the day!

I love it how they consider the support, or even the mere acknowledgement, of equal marriage "social commentary", while clearly assuming that the opposition and dismissal of it is somehow completely non-political and neutral. How can it not be thought of as a social statement after their rejective response to the

I've never cared for Lindsay Lohan as an actress and she doesn't seem hard-working or talented enough to even warrant a career revival. Still, I think it's disgusting how the media (and the audience, for that matter - just look at the comments of this article) treats her now that's she's fallen from fame. Everyone

Please. He'll be back in four issues. The bigger the character is, the less meaningful their "death" is. I wonder how long it'll take for Marvel to realize that nobody has been taking their major character deaths seriously in years? I know that this is their idea of creating "buzz" and "suspense", but I really think

Wow, such diversity, much multiculturalism. I call bullshit, Joe Wright. You're just doing what Hollywood has been doing for twenty years now - casting non-white actors into meaningless bit parts while giving all the roles of any substance and importance to white actors (even when they should be played by non-white

I'm sorry, but I'm just not at all excited about this movie, or any other superhero crossover clusterfucks whether they come in comic books, movies, or TV-shows. I just don't like my superheroes touching, okay? Not that I except anything from a movie directed by Zack Snyder to begin with, though, other than vague

I'm just going to say what me and a good few selected others reading this article are thinking about: fuck I'm oooooold.
