And if they had ever mentioned the fact that there are two of them the whole thing wouldn’t have looked like a plothole.

To this day, I’m mad that anyone thinks the movie Inception is good. It was built up so much at the time as “smart.” When I finally saw it, I was bewildered that anyone could call it that.

“As fans of Mattel and their iconic brands, we’re looking forward to bringing Magic 8 Ball, one of their most celebrated toys, to life, and playing against expectations in doing so,” said Jason Blum, the head of Blumhouse, said to Deadline.

I suspect that this only counts as an Easter Egg because the movie does such a bad job of establishing its locations. I had assumed that the Monarch team had retreated to its Mothra base and found it odd that only Ziyi Zhang was watching the monster hatch.

Psyched for the Kadrey, kinda so-so on the Stephenson.

You can tell that the director cares about these monsters. The camera dotes on them in reverent close-ups and exultant wide shots, while the human characters are resigned to dutiful shot-and-reverse setups for most of their time on screen.

DC seems to have a habit of sending ambitious Batman stories off into their own continuity. Grant Morrison’s Batman Incorporated was still in progress when the main continuity went in a different direction. Scott Snyder is poised to extend his run into a weird alternate future where Batman carries around the Joker’s

Now I wonder who will replacing him — Bendis is the obvious choice, but he’s already writing Action Comics, Superman, Young Justice, and co-writing Noami. A great choice would be Warren Ellis and if it is Ellis, I would fucking love it and buy it immediately.

So hold on... people voicing their discontent for something they financially supported is sad and lets somehow drag gender into this for god knows what reason?

I mean, I’m sure that doing references like this isn’t unique to this animated film.

You said it as a fact when it’s merely a possibility.

We can’t say that the characters went to “non-denominational heaven”. The show never took a stance on what was on the other side of that door. It might have been heaven, but there was an equal chance that it was reincarnation or just death. The writers wanted the viewers to decide what they wanted was on the other

I honestly don’t see how Watchmen isn’t a freight train loaded with burning manure sailing off a cliff into a volcano.

Sing it with me, one last time, with the cello part: “It’s the theme song. It’s the theme song...”

That ending was as bad as the Battlestar Galactica ending

YOU NEVER EXPLAINED WHAT THE FUCK THE NIGHT KING WAS.

I mean...who knew that Westeros would become a democracy?

For a harshly revisionist series, this was a strangely benign ending. They avoided the restorationist ending where Jon Snow claims his place as the true king, and I’m grateful for that, but they soft-peddle the fact that Dany’s death leaves behind a formidable army with no allegiances except to her.

I remember a lot of fans hated the Lost and BSG 2.0 finales, but those were on broadcast TV and basic cable.

I don’t mean to downplay your contributions to the Observation Deck, but new trailers and videos are gimme posts for a pop culture blog, which is why you will see very similar “here’s a thing” posts on io9 as well as most of its competitors. One of the big risks of posting on a platform like the OD is that you end up
