“I didn’t mean all those nasty things I said for 20 years ... can I have a career again?”

Bc we are at a point in our collective history that many Israelis support racist nationalist acts of violence even when it targets other Jews bc it legitimizes their own racist nationalism. 

This may come as a surprise but Mexicans and Cubans have a long history of hostility towards one another. All Spanish speakers aren’t the same. 

Programming the timer to go off on early to mid 80s VCRs was so convoluted I’d just stay up and watch Letterman on school nights with my mom periodically coming out yelling at me to go to bed.

Internet 2018: Calling a film “Very Good” is trolling.

I would not use great film to describe any of those. Christ and Innocence are good to very good films. ... We get it. You like Scorsese.

I would say it’s a very good film.

When’s his last great film? 1982?

Jack Black as D Boon. No thanks.

Never said he couldn’t junk ball his way thru a few innings. 

5. Hollywood fumbles projects about rock music at about a 90% rate. You can count the good “rock” narrative films on basically one hand.

It failed b/c: 1. Scorcese no longer has his fastball.  2. The name “Vinyl” is laughably bad.  3. People have had enough of being lectured by Baby Boomers about how great THEIR rock music is.  4. It sucked.

In light of the 48 fps Hobbit cuts, what could possibly go wrong?

Romero and Bellaire are talented. Was their Captain America run supposed to be so short?

When they say it’s good now they mostly mean its just a dumpster instead of a dumpster fire.

Um. It’s totally terrible. It’s a statue of Chris Cornell. What you meant to say is it was executed with a base level of skill but is terrible in its conception, intent and aesthetic. 

I think it’s unfairly maligned as well. While not my favorite season it is indeed rock solid. It is just slightly strangely structured by essentially beginning with a finale and then not having itself a real finale. “A Party for Tarzan” is likely in many top 5 episode lists of the series in general. The show takes

Yeah it should read that it was the episode where Rusty and the Monarch find out they are blood relations ... not the audience.

The show is better for it and more shows should follow suit.

Eh ... the design work was also well below the Timmverse shows while still on the upper end for a Marvel cartoon. It isn’t just the story telling that is weaker.
