I agree with your guesses on Alice. I’m glad that we got all this backstory but personally I wish Earth-Whatever Beth had survived and Alice died because trying to keep Alice in the show is crazy. She can’t just be redeemed and start helping out on cases or be the Robin to Kate’s Batwoman. Or just be free and murdering…

I imagine someone around Chuck Lorre said that exact description, which gave a boring TV boner and he created a tv show around it.

I like Middleditch as much as the rest of the world but this sounds exactly like a Chuck Lorre comedy, as bland and annoying as all of the rest of them.

I was thinking that it meant the comment was a bit vague, is she supposed to be bitchy but with a heart of gold or used to be a hard core drug addict? Its not a very descriptive term when casting a part.

I wish they would do something with Alice where Alice is a distinct personality from Beth and sometimes she would revert back to Beth because at this point its been proven time and time again that Alice is evil but no matter how many times Kate says she will stop her she has free access to Alice’s hideout and does…

See I don’t even think this is an issue of Sonic being a video game. I think this is the same lazy idea of transplanting [character] into real world. Think like the terrible Canon group version of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe or Howard the Duck. Both cases there is a rich and vibrant world that the character…

The weird thing about this isn’t that Biden said it to a voter (or anyone in a place where it could be viewed by anyone else) its whether or not it will actually hurt his electability. Trump got away with tons of crazy stuff (he is still getting away with tons of crazy and illegal stuff) on the campaign trail. If this…

That one was great! It was just the best sketch of the night for me.

That sketch was funny but for some reason this one had me rolling:

Holdo and Rose are hardly mold breaking. Holdo is basically a second Leia and Rose is largely a sidekick. I’m personally rather indifferent to both of them as characters but if people dislike them it is largely a function of issues with how Rian Johnson wrote them. Now granted, there are some toxic trolls out…

Its only kind of established, there is so many other ways it could have gone. Yes TFA established that Luke fled after Ben went Kylo but it didn’t have to be broken old man. It could have been original trilogy same hopeful Luke that is just afraid or remorseful. Johnson went with broken.

Damn, that isn’t a VERY southern mother but she is southern enough to lay a public beat down on her grown ass children.

Unless Christianity Today’s Editor, Mark Galli, owns the magazine I expect a swift kick in the ass for him because it seems like Evangelicals love Trump’s crazy ass despite Trump being, you know, everything that Christians should despise.

I think Star Wars could’ve been safe and boring, or it could’ve subverted expectations, but it just needed to be consistent and have the same people in charge of all 3 films.

Subverting expectations is fine, but not when things have been setup a certain way.

I don’t know that I agree that the giant battle scene was pandering as much as it was payoff.

For me if this was coming from another director that wasn’t The Last Jedi’s Rian Johnson it would carry more weight. He did really well with Knives Out but Last Jedi is very.....uneven? No matter where you stand in terms of canon and stuff like that with Star Wars its still an all around odd movie. So for Johnson to…

I get what the production wanted but the chemistry between the “siblings” and the shots of them gazing at each other does make this seem more romantic or flirtatious than innocent. I remember this commercial and even at the time it was one where if you had it on mute and watched it you thought you knew what would…

Sometimes there is actors who are fired or removed for reasons and they go into the media telling their version or their side of the story and the truth is somewhere in the middle or actually completely different. In this case though not only do I completely believe Jones, he is also throwing the business side in…

Money, it would easier (read as cheaper) for both the merchant and card companies to keep completely outdated and old tech in stores than to upgrade it. While new (to the US) features came out like tap payment (NFC) Apple/Android Pay/Whatever Pay, and chip on cards, there was no incentive by any of the merchants or…
