Also SAG-AFTRA has an entire bargaining committee who are specifically tasked with bargaining. It’s not like her being at an event meant that no one was actively in talks while she was doing what she had to do.

I could be wrong, but I’m guessing “Threads” is the new “Google+”, a bunch of initial hype, because everyone hates the current social media platforms, only for it to die off, because people hate the new social media platform AND none of their friends are on it.

When I open the app, it’s a wall of influencers and brands posting the most boring things possible. What gets engagement on Instagram (people being hot) doesn’t make for good content on a text-based app (being smart or funny). They really need to change the algorithm to serve up good content, not content from people…

Am I the only one who loved the 1st X-Files movie? Because I did. Plus it had a killer sound track almost as good as the movie itself.

Season 1 was great, Season 2 not so much.  But, yeah, most Marvel shows are fairly bad. 

“My cameo appearance was less fulfilling than my starring role.”

Miss Fine!

Many years ago she took my mother-in-law to Marshall’s and came home with a DVD of Silence of the Lambs from the bargain-bin near the register. When I tease her about loving that movie she gets all like, “No, you’re the one who loves that movie.”

Fuck. The internet is so exhausting sometimes...

Exactly. I enjoy the teaching part of my job. But the committee meetings? The constant revising of meaningless assessment standards? I could leave all that behind in a heartbeat and be 100% happier in my profession. The tone of this article is weird, particularly since it then turns around and congratulates Emily…

A large chunk of working in ‘Hollywood’ has nothing to do with creating things or even planning to create things. So much is just kissing ass, and showing up to parties, and then it takes over your non work life. Part of the issue going on is that a lot of execs have made working in the industry their only personality…

Eli Roth did a surprisingly solid job with The House With a Clock in Its Walls (not that it was faithful to its source material, but it was a surprisingly competent film outside that directors wheelhouse)

I saw the X-Files movie in the theater twice, but my clearest memory of it is finding a VHS copy in my wife’s childhood bedroom, alongside Silence of the Lambs and a collection of Nine Inch Nails videos. Ah, the 90s. 

Yeah Byrne was an Army medical doctor

The “greenface” thing is horseshit, but the rest looks pretty fucking credible.

And the AV Club is doubling down on green face paint being a scandal. Is this the new Ellie Kemper Participated In a Ball a Long Time Ago?

JFC I hate this goddamned timeline...

And judging from the fact that of my literally hundreds of physical games, some dating back to the mid-1970s, and a good 95% of them play with no problem, that shelf life can last quite a while.

Oof do not recommend Iron Blooded Orphans to people who liked Witch From Mercury. That show has comparably terrible writing and every female character is in some way entirely defined by her relationship to a more important man, or in some cases an entire haram and a child bride.

It was amazing to me to find out the…

Collateral not even making the top 10 is a crime.
