That also applies to the Home Alone movies, though, and nobody questions them being Christmas movies. 

“Die Hard is a Christmas movie” is one of those takes that are made by people who want to come off as being “hip” to movies. It’s annoying.

Of course it’s not a Christmas movie, it’s a movie about action escapism and violent fantasy. Just because a movie is set during Christmas, that doesn’t make it a “Christmas…

I can’t count the number of things I knew “spoilers” for just from pop-cultural background noise that I still enjoyed when I got around to actually seeing them.

Simple rules for spoilers:

The fuck!?!

I’m unashamed to say I love this movie. It’s Reynolds at his most Reynolds, Faris at her most Faris, and Hagerty hasn’t been this funny since Airplane.

Rogue One absolutely smokes Solo.

Yeah, Luke showing up was perfect, in part because in universe, it made total sense that it would be him to show up. In general I don’t like the efforts to incorporate a Skywalker into every aspect of the Star Wars universe, but here it was necessary and justified.

I enjoyed Last Holiday more than most movies of its type It focused on one woman’s dreams, desires and near tragedy more than obsessing about potential romance. Her time at the resort is actually a gift to everyone who encounters her. I love the scene where she tells an entitled white women to treat her masseuse with…

“Click on each photo that has an Ewok.” 

How the hell does Shia LaBeouf still have a career? Spacey, Gibson, Allen, Depp, etc., all produced critically acclaimed work, so there’s (however misguided) always some debate about how we’re supposed to separate artist from art and what it would take to redeem themselves in the public eye. Shia LaBeouf, on the other…

My favorite CYA explanation is that it’s Star Wars Captcha, and it’s literally just making sure you’re not a robot.

The guys is an asshole, no way around it. He thinks of himself as a “troubled artist”, and sure he has had trauma in his life, but as someone who has had a troubled childhood, with abuse, both physical and sexual, bullying and anger issues, all while living the political violence and unstability in Colombia, when I…

Philosopher’s Stone.

“Weirdly, the only real weak spot is Emma Watson, the one of the three who became both a great actor”

I’m happy for Christensen. C’mon, my dude. Prove yourself now that you’re free of Lucas’ writing. I think you can do it.

More like: “stop cancelling well liked shows like Glow and Santa Clarita in favor of garbage like this.”

This saga really lived up to the show’s name.

Holy shit that's a lot of crap to deal with. Im so sorry for this poor woman. I hope her surviving sons have support.
