Yeah, could be a couple of different things, but that was my immediate thought as well.

in its own sloppy way, justice was served

It’s that he was capable of letting you see beyond the coolness to the warmth just barely hiding underneath.

Who knows. The Dodgers front office is so wonky and use of the bullpen was so weird that I can envision him having been under direct orders to prioritize Kershaw and Kelly and avoiding Jansen, leaving him with only Maeda as the one decent late inning arm that he could use when he felt appropriate.

Yeah. To me, releasing on 2000 screens may actually have been a substantial part of the disconnect for the majority of your list. By and large they were niche genre films, and the distributor screwed up badly trying to push them out to a wider audience that never was going to be interested in it. This description also…

This is the best piece you’ve ever written on Jezebel, and I’m so sorry for your loss.

Thanks, interesting list.

Interstellar (which I loved), First Man (which I hated), and, partially, The Martian (which I saw)

Today was a tremendous day for democracy, and I’m more optimistic than you are.
