Honestly, fair. I’m not certain that physical disabilities like this, that people might not be born with, necessarily require faithfully representative casting? Might be more of a case-by-case thing.

“House Of The Dragon seems to have wildly varying ideas of what a 14-year-old looks like.”

I don’t watch the show for the dragons, and don’t want to sound like a fanboy for the dragons, because that’s the shallow excuse some people levy against GoT as to why its so popular... but... that dragon scene was fucking incredible

The main problem with the time jump is that our relationship with Rhaenyra and Alicent were with the previous actresses. I am rooting for Rhaenyra in part because I liked Milly’s Rhaenyra. When you suddenly switch actresses like that, it’s like they’re whole new characters in that they’re not the people we had…

I don’t know if we’re supposed to be on her side, but I do think we’re to understand how she went from this very naive girl to someone who will slowly lose her humanity to protect her children.

Came to say the same. I know AVClub has kinda turned their operation into a content mill but this is next-level.

Then Nolan’s takeover will truly be complete.

The problem with D&D as a movie or show or anything other then a game is really the fact that it was created entirely so people could pretend to be in the fantasy stories they loved. So by its very nature its derivative of classic fantasy like the LOTR and Conan and such.

Back in my day Led Zeppelin was quintessential music to play while playing D&D. You’d have Zeppelin on along with you cases of Mountain Dew and Doritos and take out and you’d rock on into the wee hours of the morning.

I would have gone with “I’m a snoozer baby, so please don’t you wake me.”

I loved this site so much. Idk why I continue hanging around in the graveyard. Nostalgia, I guess.

I like it, too. But more than that, I love that they relegated “Knives Out” to a series name rather than just numbering them.

The issue is that it’s hard to do it without sounding like a conservative crank, which is a shame because someone seriously needs to.

Just a friendly reminder to all that the term Millennial refers to people ages roughly 30 to 40 :)

I’m still skeptical this can be adapted well (its qualities as a book were somewhat specific to the medium, in my opinion), but this might be good. Moffat does his best work with limited series, rather than ongoing ones, so he might not mess this one up.

So, this isn’t a sequel to B13?

The Grammys are like if the Oscars only nominated summer blockbusters in every category. 

I love/hate that they’re calling these trash bags “Everybody Wins” while distributing them to only 25 “top” nominees.

He did play music in public again though, which I don’t think anyone expected either.

Y’know, the country of Iceland has laws concerning the names you can and cannot name your children, and while some people consider them to be a human rights violation, it’s shit like this that makes me think they’re necessary. Like, why even do this? Because it sounds cute? Because it’s funny? Because it’s…
