Imagine that a sequel to a nearly 30 year old franchise brings together the original stars, the original screenwriters, and the guy who directed Galaxy Quest...and your hot take is “they are milking a cow”....are you that hard up for a comment that this was the best you could offer up?

I have to disagree. I think a major theme of this movie is going to be how they stayed immature because of learning about the prophesy. They never did what they needed to do to grow and mature. And THAT is why they never were able to write the prophesied song. They’re daughters, who have been ragging them for never…

for fuck sake are you still signing your own stupid comments

Keanu is one of those few guys whom have managed to stay relevant throughout his entire career.

Well they better

8+21+20+20=69 dudes!

By all accounts he is an awesome dude who had been successful, dealt with personal tragedy, and kept it together without going off the deep end. At this point he might as well just go for it. Make fun of of his “Whoa” persona all you want, the only difference between aloof and stoic is often age.

Well that and Neo, famous for his longest bit of spoken line being his six sentence speech at the end of the first Matrix.

Cracks me up how brave Keanu is for diving headfirst back into a character that he’s basically been running from his whole career, insofar as early assessments of his talent went.

You’re basically describing a medieval Batman game, and I’m here for it.  

Imo, the trick is to find the balance to where hidden blade still insta-kills, but the emphasis is really on setup.

I appreciate easy/story mode. I’m here to have a good time (that means not doing the same fight over and over), enjoy the story itself, and then move on to the next thing. So in the case of FF7, I’m actually happy to hear this...

What isn’t mentioned in the series, but in an La Times interview with the directors is that none of them, even Carole, had any interest in cats outside of their private zoos. Eric Goode specifically says that none of them ever had any interest or curiosity about cats in the wild. So there’s this terrible level of…

Marah:
Do you really think Carole, alone in the night, killed him, dismembered him, and then dragged him, piece by piece, into different tiger’s cages for him to be eaten? And then cleaned up and went about her business for the rest of her life?

Me:
...yes...?

Exactly the kind of self-righteous moral posturing we need in these trying times! 

I dont know man. Carole has some strange “personality quirks” I noticed while watching the series. Like, she has these pictures of her new husband on all fours wearing a collar and leash. He whole deal just gives this vibe of manipulation/dominance over him and everything else in her “kingdom”. When he talks its…

Granted there’s obviously not enough evidence to convict her in the court of law, I’d bet a year’s wages that Carole killed her husband. The show never documented this, but Carole had a relationship that proceeded the disappearance of her former husband and which came before her remarriage. Her partner in that…

I mean... of course?  I’m a feminist but I find this article confusing - this was a (somewhat indulgently lurid) series about a bunch of lunatics.  The people are all (with maybe three exceptions) extremely gross.  Misogyny is one of many, many sins of these weird people.

I love a good nested joke.

I was going to get seriously pissed about the grade of “B”, but looking at this guy’s other reviews, he seems to be going for B’s the way A. A. Dowd gave everything a C.

But seriously, this is the best thing I’ve seen so far this year. “The Death of Stalin” may have been a little bit more polished and been funnier…

I hadn’t heard that about Lakeith Stanfield. It’s shitty behavior, but I (and I don’t speak for the A.V. Club at large) don’t really have the bandwith to keep track of every time an actor, writer, director, or other filmmaker does something shitty.
