Exactly. Unless someone like Nolan or Spielberg pursues it, getting an original, female-lead movie with the budget and scope of a Bond film (No Time To Die cost $300 million) into production is a tall order.

Holy shit, OG James Bond was Sterling Archer.

Cliff Simon (Ba’al) passed away recently, too. It sucks.

I was going to suggest the Bob’s Burgers characters, but I don’t think that would reach the same audience.

I haven’t seen it or plan to, but I wonder if they felt the “befuddled old man” stereotype was in bad taste for a children’s show? Or maybe Lou’s old vibe isn’t as prominent among modern grandparents, and they chose “yoga hippie grandpa” over “Fox News watching loudmouth grandpa”?

He does an entire podcast in character as Ron Burgundy, so he could probably host Jeopardy! in character, too.

This take pisses me off more than their 2016 ones because CA is my state and I live in an area FULL of politically active conservatives who vote regularly and  would like nothing better than to put a dipshit like Elder in charge.

I believe those cutscenes in Starfleet Academy are the very last time that Shatner actually appears on screen as Captain Kirk.

BotF swallowed half my childhood.

(Kinja might eat my comment since I’m grey on Kotaku, but oh well)

Who is to say she won’t be acquitted? Captain Picard is technically a murderer because of what he did as Locutus, but he wasn’t in control of his actions then. Likewise, Agnes was telepathically manipulated into killing Maddox by the Romulans.

I would be disappointed to know the Russos have a problem with a Disney+ release, and people having options to watch in the safety of their homes.

Some people are just principled/stuck in their ways/assholes who refuse to play ball. Manchin and Sinema are among them, and there is probably nothing Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer can offer to change that. The Republicans have the same problem when they’re in power. Remember when McCain voted against repealing…

I assume they could, but there isn’t as much interest since Hulk has never been as bankable as Spiderman at the box office.

I read an interesting article last night about the similarities between the prohibition and anti-abortion movements (decades-long campaigns, heavy rural/religious influence, etc.), the conclusion being that prohibition was killed because it actually happened. Once enough people were affected, opposition mobilized and…

This tripe about Baby Boomers only caring about themselves from the generation who grew up getting a participation trophy because they couldn’t have their little bitty feelings hurt, and whining for everyone else to pay off their debts, because no one wants to hire an idiot who paid hundreds of thousands of dollars…

A show about a crippled gay hillbilly spy?

I hope there’s a tell-all at some point, because it really seems like the lack of a succession plan was part of Richards’ cover to seize the podium.

Agreed. Burton has been a producer, showrunner, director, actor, and host at different points in his life. Give him an a few actual test shows and some support and I bet he’d get into the groove quickly.
