One thing I think retro-futuristic shows like this have over those ones (with the possible exception of Stranger Things since that one wears its 80s media nostalgia on its sleeve) is they own the fact that they’re built on the myth rather than the reality more explicitly. Mad Men flirted with the idea of being a story…

Oh, come on! Billy Crudup as a desperate salesman? What the hell more do you want? How can this not be good?

This sounds like my kind of action. I’ll give it a watch. 

If Saskatchewan, Montana and the two Dakotas broke away to form their own country - We’ll call it “Backwardistan” - a bunch of the yeehaw right-wing assholes from Alberta would move there ... leaving Alberta a better place.

Nope. Quebec is where we keep the cool urbanites, European-cred, maple syrup, and one of our best cities - Montreal.

Talk to Alberta. Premier Smith might take them off your hands. Scott Moe in Saskatchewan currently has no friends. He’d take them as well. The rest of the country... fuck no, we don’t want them. We barely tolerate Alberta (and I live in Alberta).

Or “The Founder,” about the founding of McDonald’s. (Great movie, by the way.)

The AV Club died years ago.  You can’t expect much from the corpse.

Yeah as a Canadian I can also confirm that we do not in fact want, nor would we accept, either of the Dakota’s into our fold.

Barbaric. I’d say give Canada both Dakotas but I like Canada and Canadians too much.

the low-key worst part about eternals is how many great actors it wasted on those characters.

That wig has got to be some kind of revenge on her. 

Filming in the actual quantum realm is expensive.

Is MODOK the “Humpty Dumpty” villain the review refers to?

#1: Kang PREDATES Darth Vader. #2: Put some respect on MODOK's name, you son of a bitch!

seriously wished he did more comedy. He has such good timing. 

He was the bomb, yo!

You spelled “was the bomb” wrong!
