I feel the same way about that other ‘80s sacred cow, The Breakfast Club. The first half-hour or so is great, but the second half is pure garbage, and the last twenty minutes or so is total fucking bullshit.

Am I a terrible person for saying that I don’t think Princess Bride is as good as people think it is?

Anyone who generalizes the action of one video game reviewer to the entire community/industry is a moron and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

It’s probably plagiarism in the end, but it’s worth noting that “fast, fluid, and responsive,” and talking about how “rewarding” or “gratifying” an experience happens to be, are core cliches of modern games criticism.

I’m curious to see if this post-Game of Thrones trend of “8 to 9 figures-per-season” TV shows is sustainable. Television has recently been afforded more creative leeway than film because their budgets are so much smaller but they can still deliver compelling narratives. With these high budgets, will television…

“I don’t think enough western filmmakers have spent the time to really analyze the Asian market — that’s why you’ll notice a lot of American films don’t work over here…”

While these modders are at it, maybe those big red letters that Souls players know so well should say “you tried.”

The Seeds is excellent. A perfect pairing of writing and art. Superior work. I encourage everyone to check it out.

MJ might be the greatest of all time, but Jesus CHRIST he is such a pussy.

I still think he partially torched Fringe, but either way, he has quite the bad track record in my eyes.

Kirsten Beyer wrote some excellent Voyager revival books, she definitely “gets” Star Trek which is nice.

I’m excited to see Patrick Stewart and Michael Chabon involved in a new show, but less thrilled about Alex Kurtzman and Akiva “Freeze in Hell” Goldsman. Admittedly, Fringe was mostly a good time, and their work in television is not as alarming as the glossy schlock they’ve committed to film. Meanwhile, I have no real…

Jordon must be taking his retirement pretty fucking seriously if he won’t dunk on Trump for this dumb-ass tweet.

McFarlane’s Venom no longer looks like an oily, deranged smiley face, but we will have to see whether the movie script wants the monster to look pleased with itself. I can picture a version of the story where Tom Hardy’s sad eyes and internalized rage are meant to contrast with the gleeful nastiness of the symbiote.

Ah, yes, time travel, it either solves everything or fucks up everything. Or both.

Fuckin’ time travel.

If AI androids can dance like this, then humans are screwed and doomed...

A Batman movie with emphasis on Batman being the world’s greatest detective sounds awful to you? Or, when you say “awful”, are you referring to all the behind-the-scenes drama up to this point?

The dance number in Ex Machina was both an unsettling tonal shift and a brilliant piece of meme-bait, but the dance number in Annihilation might be even more audacious. Let’s hope the show gives her another chance to get down until the rest of us mumble “what the fuck did I just watch?”

The last few DC movies have given us plenty of reasons to be skeptical about this one, but Matt Reeves has made a career of directing projects that have sounded ruinous until the moment that they turn out to be pretty good:
