Bosch has one more season that has wrapped shooting. A spinoff will begin filming in June or July.

Kind of bizarre this interview didn’t touch on it at all except AA bringing it up for lighting purposes.

That’s really the only thing I saw her in until The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. I agree, she was (and hopefully will continue to be, I have no idea if it’s coming back) really good as that kind of weary modulating force for Bosch without falling into the “now get the hell out of my office” angry supervisor to a…

I have enjoyed the interpersonal stuff a lot more than you. I definitely agree about the timing of Molly spending so much time off base in the middle of this huge crisis. However, I liked the interactions between Molly and her husband.

This genuinely hurts. She was the best character on Peaky Blinders and she was always reliable no matter the role. Goddamn it cancer, its always too soon. She might have been 52 but that feels too young. Those two kids deserved to still have a mother.  Farewell Polly.

I think saying there were 6 seasons of masterful TV is stretching it. The seams started to show by season 5, aka when they ran out of book to crib. By season 6 D&D’s bad impulses and shortcomings were on full display.

Reviled by who? I love this movie; everyone was great in it but I would single out Viola Davis. And that Cliff Martinez score, gorgeous. Sure, it was doesn’t have a 12-minute wordless shot of a guy in a taxi or whatever, so I guess it’s not ART.

I only read the Southern Reach books, so I am surprised to hear something he wrote called a page turner. I think it took me three times longer to read each page of those books than anything I’ve ever read. They were great, but very dense, inscrutable language. 

It’s not going to be the same again. The man definitely had his flaws, namely his at times complete inability to understand his wealth and why you shouldn’t make “jokes” with the punchline aimed at race, gender, or disability, but he was probably more of a positive to the world than a negative over the course of his…

No, control is a tightening noose. His guilt over his earlier transgression caused him to be too abiding; she took that submission and ran with it, to the point where she’s telling him what substances he can ingest, and what things he can’t do without her.

really? Wow - so he wrote my favourite bits from this and Blade Runner? Amazing. 

I think it’s fair to demonize the girlfriend. She won’t let go of something that happened four years ago, and Dan is right that she’s just using this to control the LW, as she tries to control all his other behavior.

For me the turning point was ”can only do drugs with her express permission, which shes already heavily implied Ill never get” because that’s about normalizing her right to dictate what he does, not establish rules around drug use. If she doesn’t want him doing drugs at all, then she needs to just say that an trust…

I liked the non-Soviet parts more than you did. I have no idea about the historical accuracy of things but I do like the continued exploration of how they still haven’t really dealt with the loss of their son and how the daughter has to deal with the fact that she lives in the shadow of someone she can never know.

In fairness to the Simpsons...the AV Club doesn’t really cover ANYTHING, anymore.

I wasn’t thrilled with this episode but I see it as a breather episode before the political shit hits the fan.

I watched the new episode of For All Mankind: The show AV Club and Io9 Have Never Heard of. It was a character building episode so I’m guessing the political shit is going to hit the fan next week.

I think it’s 100% better than The Wire. All the excellent storytelling, none of the shithead McNulty.

It was often and famously said of Christopher Lee that he’d been in a lot of bad movies, but he’d never given a bad performance in them. Yaphet Kotto is one of the few other actors who I think can make a similar claim: Live and Let Die is as close to irredeemable as any of the Bond films (which is, frankly, saying…

Weird thing: So far, they’ve all died in the same order their characters do in the Director’s Cut (where Dallas is still alive until Ripley finds him in a cocoon):

“Kotto famously passed on several iconic roles, that of Lando Calrissian in The Empire Strikes Back . . .”
