I got dismissed by FeministOnFire which is HILARIOUS.

Steps on it and trips and falls all 40 stories down

Ah, the trolley problem for racists.

I would agree with you that Fischer doesn’t owe the public any details if he doesn’t want to give them. But if he’s going to talk about the issue publicly and ask people for their support, providing those details would clearly make people a lot more willing to give that support. Not everyone knows all the industry…

Lovecraft really lucked out in how his terror of anything the slightest bit different from upper class suburban Rhode Island could translate so easily into a really neat cosmic horror setup. And then you hit lines where he outright insults black people and are forced to realize “Oh yeah, that’s what this entire thing…

Rick & Morty was a great, bracing Sci Fi satire but I think it’s just not built to go the long run.

The thing with Nolan is he wants to make standard genre films with a fun conceptual twist, but he often underestimates how much more fun the conceptual twist is than the genre film he’s trying to spice up. It took me a while to come to terms with the fact that Inception isn’t a movie about dream shenanigans, it’s a…

To me it’s very clearly anchored in John K’s mindset. The 25 years or so that he was seen as an animation auteur he tried to establish his paradoxical fixations (the maximalist, frantic action of Bob Clampett & the stilted, slow paced stylisied approach of early 60s Hanna-Barbera; an adolescent fixation on rebellious…

Shit I had no idea.

I was told there would be no math.

The statement went on to highlight the real problem with the film, saying “the best visual effects in the world will not compensate for a story told badly”

Yeah, but pretending that the twisted, murderous (though admittedly sympathetic) monster of the story was black the whole time suddenly adds a hell of a lot of subtext that the author clearly never intended. Which, hey, that could be fun to explore—perhaps in a film adaptation!—but just leaving the text as-is and…

It’s HBO. It’s Armando Iannucci. It’s Hugh Laurie.

I don’t see the issue, HypnoLambOfGod is here for You, just stare into his eyes...

The less-interesting present stuff read to me like people wanting to keep their jobs. Mark Waid was very obviously interviewed, but since he was working for Marvel at the time, Howe left his name out. Bill Jemas is the only one anyone says anything negative about. It feels like maybe the book should have stopped after…

I assume that means he’s playing Darkseid.

Stay tuned for the next episode of Mahou Handomeido Offuredesu!

What?
