OMG I LIKED THE SHOW BECAUSE EVEN WITHOUT THE 80S-NESS ITS A SOLID SHOW WITH SOME STRONG ACTING THAT TELLS AN ENGAGING STORY WITH RELATABLE CHARACTERS, AND WORKS LARGELY FOR THE SAME REASONS THAT ITS INFLUENCES WORKED, RATHER THAN RELYING PURELY ON NOSTALGIA

The greatest insult possible is being valued at the same level as Zack Snyder. Why don’t we put her in charge?

Yeah, no shit. I think by 1989 kids knew that strangers on the street dressed as clowns and offering you a balloon are probably after your cornhole.

South Park doesn’t think everything sucks. A big chunk of what they believe seems to be that extremism in general sucks, that taking things too far can ruin even good causes or ideas.

I don’t really see this “everything sucks/don’t believe in anything” attitude that others see.

Now playing

Adam Conover had a segment about that on Adam Ruins Everything.

Pgoodso’s Pointless Prediction P’corner-Considering how much of a beef Overkill seems to have with AEGIS, normal superhero protocol, and interestingly, Onward the Dog (at least while full of FO-HAM), as well as his hatred of the Terror and apparent experience with Lint, I think Overkill is the only surviving member of

You know, the simpsons turned into a mediocre generic sitcom so gradually, I nevere] even noticed.

Have no fears, they’ve got stories for years.

It’s still good! It’s still good!

Sure, it seems like basic stuff ... but muffing such things is closer to the rule than the exception in genre fare. Apparently it must be harder in practice than it looks, so why not applaud it when one sees it?

I hate the complaints that Stranger Things is just designed to massage the nostalgia-center of the brain (like Ready Player One or Dane Cook). It’s an entirely original work that takes place in a nostalgic time; the kids like the things we like but ultimately the series isn’t about that, if anything their only

I just had a reeeeeal hard time with my suspension of disbelief in that. That big fucking crate was where I mentally checked out.

Quite. “What the fuck have you done lately?” > “This is the look on my face while I’m fucking you in the ass!” Has Mark Millar been taken to therapy yet, ‘cause he strikes me as not the kind of person who would willingly go.

I’m with you... even something as heartless as The Raid made sure to cover the bases in the character/stakes department.

Will never understand creators making Batman kill people. That’s a fundamental misunderstanding of the character right there.

God, Mark Millar is an overgrown middle schooler. The closest the wanted comic ever gets to the clever parody it thinks it is is with Shithead and he is literally just an anthropomorphized poop joke (author insert perhaps?). That last page particularly, holy cow, the most Mark Millar thing this side of my toilet.

Even as someone who likes Millar’s work, Wanted the comic is...certainly something. It’s not as viscerally awful as The Unfunnies (which Millar himself appears to want to forget) but he’s improved drastically as a writer in his other own work.

This is bad. Am I still Liam Neeson (in the Grey)?
