He's saying they have to get the magic mcguffin material to fight the unstoppable army of zombies; I think he's *supposed* to sound like a crazy person to someone who is maybe not 100% convinced that the zombies are real…

I'm not sure of that at all. Making the viewer just as confused about where exactly the fighting is taking place as the combatants could easily be a choice.

Didn't see it called out, but Euron holding Yara captive in front of Theon seemed like something of a callback to Season 1 when one of the Wildlings had Bran in a similar position and Theon casually put an arrow through him (and got yelled at by Robb for it).

Is there a bad way to get alcohol poisoning?

Tapioca balls or no tapioca balls?

I personally like Tarantino, but I can certainly see the things about it that would get on people's nerves. My suspicion is that the venn diagram of "Like Deadpool" and "Dislike Tarantino" is very very small.

I mean, if TJ Miller has the 10 minutes or so of screen time he had in the last one, fine. If the movie doubles down and makes it a TJ MIller centric plot (which as far as I know there are no plans to do), I'd worry.

My wife had no idea who Deadpool was and she loved it. I was kind of passingly familiar. I also liked it. I can totally understand someone not liking it though. It clearly thinks it is very clever, and that can rub people the wrong way (see also Quentin Tarantino).

I think Brolin is much better casting. I love Shannon, but "stoic uncompromising hardass" isn't really his jam.

If the whole thing was just a bunch of unexplained weird stuff, then sure, but the stuff we knew about was, if odd, fairly internally consistent, so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

I was entertained enough. I liked the tone, Paul Rudd is charming, and the final fight scene was pretty great. In the Marvelverse I'd at least rate it above Avengers 2, which was just too overstuffed for me, and probably above Doctor Strange, depending on my tolerance for Cumberbatch at that particular time.

No job (outside of modeling) would require a stylish hairdo. Almost every job you might want explicitly or implicitly requires mobile communication.

Except if you want to exist in first world society, it *is* crucial. The fact that we survived before we invented them is not material. We survived without indoor plumbing too, that doesn't mean it's ok for a landlord to shut off the plumbing and say "go shit in a bucket the way people did 80 years ago". There are

Irrelevant right back at you. I guess we should also stop vaccinating because some people survived Polio? And we should stop wearing seatbelts because some people survived car crashes?

You'd also have to be sure enough to challenge him, because if you were wrong you would look like a tremendous asshole.

74 on Metacritic, 90+ on Rotten Tomatoes. Assuming you don't just hate superhero movies it doesn't seem the movie is likely to be shitty.

/me imagines HELP covering the Firebird Suite live in concert.

I was a *total* ELP fanboy in college (early 90s).

You, umm, may want to reread that.
