As a diehard X-Men reader at the time the original series premiered, I wasn’t that big a fan of the cartoon (loved the Batman and Superman shows way more). I hated how they simplified the stories to cram them into the confines of the show. However, I was pleased that my favorite heroes were finally getting some…

I just hope someone is there to remind Sunspot that he has super-strength but not invulnerability. 

There is no meaningfully powerful political left in this country, at least on a national policy level. Our major parties are a center-right party and a far-right party, by any reasonable metric, since they are both capitalist, the economic ideology of the right. So it’s not even facile; it’s basically a category…

The entire country saw a bunch of asshat losers try to overthrow the government and 4 years later large swaths either deny that happened or openly say it was a great thing.

Those who sit on the fence merely get impaled.

We should try Trump out again and if it doesn’t work, we’ll simply vote him out.

“Garland explained that it’s about political divisiveness in general and our insistence on ‘talking and not listening.’ He said there are politicians and people in the media ‘on both sides of the divide’ who are ‘wonderful’ and that ‘left and right are ideological arguments about how to run a state’ and nothing…

People who make food for children are still called “cooks.”

Yes, this is a brand-new term that no one has ever used before.

Maybe we just think Across the Spider-Verse was bloated, poorly structured, and inferior to its predecessor? It is possible, you know.

Hard disagree on that.  If The Boy and the Heron was up against Into the Spiderverse,  that would be a hard choice but not this match up.  I liked Across the Spiderverse a ton but The Boy and the Heron was just a better film 

Yeah, I think the situation is actually that the Academy likes Scorsese a lot, but that his movies (while often very good) have not necessarily been the best movie in a lot of years. Like, Goodfellas probably should have beaten Dances With Wolves in 1990. But most of the time, there’s been a strong case that the…

“...aren’t the biggest fans of Martin Scorsese. The director has been nominated 16 times...”

“Bargain” at 30 seemed odd to me too.

“Christmas” from Tommy is a great Daltrey performance and a great overall Who song. Love the weird “AH, ah, AH, ah...” part.

_I don’t know how “Eminence Front” is missing from this list!_

This is a similar dynamic to Oasis during their heyday: with Noel Gallagher writing all music and lyrics to their big hits in the 90's and early 2000s. (Later on, Liam would contribute his own songs, some of which charted in the UK).

Back in the day I always wondered if Pete would murder Roger before Sting murdered Stewart, or the other way around. Der Stingel apparently really really really hated the way Copeland would explode into riffs and rolls on his own. 

Seriously, it’s the only part that begins to make sense for that band.  Travesty all around.

I know it’s meant to focus on Daltrey, but it’s hard to say these are essential when you leave out so many amazing Entwistle tracks: My Wife, Boris the Spider, Success Story, Heaven and Hell to name just a few. I’d also add more from Quadrophenia, namely Sea and Sand, Bell Boy, and the cut tracks Four Face and Joker…
