So to answer the Internet Geniuses who respond with tired shit like “should Catholics only be played by Catholics, THEN?” There’s a difference between the role Catholicism plays in the world and the role Jews and Judaism play. One is the richest most powerful church on earth and has been for centuries. The others were…

I think the next Bond movie needs to start over, literally, and be set in the 1960s. Forget about trying to make Bond “relevant” in the modern world. He’s not. Embrace it, get back to basics and dive into the iconography of old school Bond.

Heh. We can blame that on the fact that we’re now in a post-Bourne world. The original three Bourne films are startlingly fresh compared to Bond (and more fun too, especially that fight in the Parisian apartment...)

Yeah, it makes no sense at all that two different movies could each use a similar plot device and yet somehow it works in one movie and doesn’t work in the other movie.

“It’s dumb that they just brought back Palps after not mentioning him in either of the previous movies. Like we’re supposed to believe that he was like just off-screen the entire time.”

I always find fans of musical films to be fucking insufferable and the Twitter reactions to Cats is why.

My girlfriend is a wonderful woman. She’s smart, kind, hard working, and gives generously to her community. But she is also one of the approximately 5 people on this planet who are actually excited for this film, and for the life of me I cannot understand why or how someone so seemingly rational could feel that way.

Wilson was reportedly able to secure her departure after an incident involving Jeffrey Reiner, an executive producer and frequent director on the show, and Girls producers Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner. During a casual hang, Reiner reportedly showed Dunham a photo of a nude actor on his phone from an Affair scene shot…

Cosigned. This trope is old and tired and damaging to women in the profession. But screenwriting is so dominated by men, and many of those men apparently lack the empathy necessary to write “the other”—be it women or other ethnicities or the LGBTQ community. As a result, we continue to get stories that reduce these…

Dear screenwriters: Stop writing stories about journalists who sleep with sources. You’d think our shared experience as nerdy, workaholic, under-appreciated writers would engender a little more understanding and empathy from their side of things.

The facts that his defamation lawsuit was dismissed because he was the primary suspect when the media had reported it. I do not condone the media’s behavior in characterizing the man, but in a court of law it was decided that the falsehood of his involvement was not the fault of the Atlantic Journal Constitution.

That’s the point. It is meant to indict the media allowing the trumpers to flee further into their bubble. The villain of the film is not the actual terrorist but the media. No one argues that the media did not get it wrong or that Jewell wasn’t screwed over by the FBI.  So who is this film for besides people who are…

I bet Kevin James is really pissed he missed out on this role!

Reads like that is one of the core themes:

The Fox news crowd is turning this into an indictment of both the entire media industry and the FBI/deep state which - sure, they fucked up.

I assumed this movie was going to be an Eastwood screed against Fake News. 

Yeah. If you’re going to judge a movie by its blocking, you might as well judge a book by the way it uses words! 

“because higher education, like unions, do function as important progressive institutions”

Ignoring for a moment the seemingly magical connection between learning more about how the world works and becoming more liberal, conservatives are under-represented on college campuses because their entire culture involves amassing a fuckton of personal wealth and power. Universities are (in theory) supposed to be…
