I mean, Kristof has won two Pulitzers so... I’m not sure I’d throw him in there with “hacks”

As a kid, I remember thinking it was creepy. As an adult now, too. So yes, still much loved.

Again... between a not-so great movie and another not-so great mini series we are going to get, what, a not-so great combination of the two?

I’d be really happy if they keep with the trend of finding a qualified, yet up-and-coming actor. Craig had only been in a couple of films (nothing huge or widely seen), same with the others for the most part. I think that Moore was probably the most established actor. In other words, no Hiddleston, Fasbender, or Elba…

Doesn’t this really come down to choice?

The Finder. My wife and I caught it on HULU. Thought is was goofy fun with decent characters. A nice after work show to wind down the day. After we got through season one, I was telling my friend at work about it and said “I can’t wait for season two”... He did not give me the response I was hoping for.

Oh man... this was one of my favorites. Solid characters, cool long story archs... Sleepy Hollow gets to keep going that that shows is utter garbage, and Grimm gets cancelled... smh.

I’ve been a college professor for about 11 years now (I teach rhetoric/argument courses), and while I appreciate having (and agree that we need) places for students to find safe harbor (we do have ‘safe spaces’ on campus, specifically for LGBT but other students can utilize these to engage sympathetic faculty and…

Did the staff at io9 get some kind of memo requiring them to try and convince people this is going to be good? The first trailer was abysmal and while this is slightly better, it still looks kind of boring. A chuckle here and there, maybe, but this isn’t convincing me to shell out cash to see it. If the trailers don’t…

Hanna? I admit, I haven’t seen it in years, but I don’t recall anything fairy tale about it.

My wife grew up with cats, and we have cats. We also ended up getting two dogs, so we have both now. She says we will never own another cat. The surprise cat puke, the fur, the littler. Ugh. I’ll take a dog out to the yard with pooper scooper in hand any day.

I will admit that I wasn’t super excited about this film as it was being talked about and made, and the trailer hasn’t done anything to change that for me. I feel like I’ve seen these jokes or at least a version of them before. I’m just not seeing anything that makes me want to go to the theater for this.

It’s been a while since I’ve read the books, but I’m pretty sure he is described as white, sort of... If I remember, there is a scene where Jake sees a poster of Clint Eastwood and for a second thinks it is Roland. Otherwise, I can’t honestly think of a reason that this would be an issue unless someone is a bit of a…

One other quick thought, if the movie were about ‘mind control’ then the director’s purported intended purpose of making this a feminist film would be void, right?

Honestly, I think the fan theory stuff is starting to get a bit silly. Misreading a film isn’t the same as analyzing it.

I agree - just from this trailer, I’m a bit worried. I’m not happy about it being in English and while I’ll hold out hope, I’m going into it with tempered expectations.

I remember loving Clerks and those Smith films that followed and then Dogma came around. I left the theater really disappointed. On one hand there were some great moments - mostly from Rickman - but on the other it just felt so awkward and off balance. There were all these jokes (some of which worked and some didn’t),…

I this is is great support for the notion that education (specifically higher ed) should really focus on the ‘education’ part rather than ‘career training.’ It is much easier to shift careers if you have a solid education than if you are simply trained to do a specific kind of job.

“I don’t want to think about Animal having a love life.”

I notice that you sidestepped my main point but... ok. Of course he won’t say that because no one is going to admit guilt especially if they don’t feel what they do was illegal. Also, the O’Bannon case, as I understand it, positioned the NCAA, not individual institutions, as the defendant. I don’t think that anyone…
