Others may disagree, but I do think that this series is fairly strong throughout. I like Hill House and Bly Manor more, but it’s probably qualitatively better than Bly. It also sticks its landing better than Hill. (I will refrain from going into the details why out of respect for spoilers.)

I actually thought this was strong until the ending—a LOT of talky/borderline sentimental speeches (which I feel has been true of his other series.) But I thought it mostly earned that so can’t complain—but the middle was actually my favourite stuff. The problem with the format is you know that by the end most of the…

As a person who was himself prone to little clerical mistakes in his early twenties, I am horrified to learn this information. 

Just imagine what happened to the assistant to the assistant to the associate producer that got blamed for the missed payment.

Healthcare.

Does Mike Flanagan know horror is supposed to be scary??

Another thing with the X-Men is that all the movie adaptions to date have all been mostly “grounded” Earth based stories which has ignored the vast amount of times the X-Men went to space and fought aliens and shit.   I wanna see some Star Jammers 

I’ll generally prefer to watch Planet Terror over Death Proof, given the choice.

Love Planet Terror. The extended cut is great on it’s own. 

well i think the issue is that death proof works totally fine on its own, and the double feature was a massive flop, but it was a blast.

I honestly didn’t know that MTV was still in existence.  Huh.

Are the MTv awards still a thing?

Assumed they stopped 15 years ago along with the videos.

I thought he was often funny on SNL, but that was undercut by his “breaking” during sketches. Professionals don’t do that shit on the regular and it became clear that Fallon did it for attention.

I’ve noticed this too. It’s hard to miss.

He’s always been a complete and utter knob. Right from the start. And listening to him now, on that new podcast with the 4 other late-night hosts, really drives home how truly talentless he is.

The headline is clickbait. The actual content is “Longtime editor Tom Brevoort is moving from the Avengers to the X-Men.” That’s it.

I just saw Dune for the first time last Friday. And yeah, the pace is positively glacial, but it worked for me because I was expecting lore, not plot, and that’s what I got. It was a movie more about immersing you in a world than telling a story. I can’t say it worked for all of Villeneuve works though.

Having seen both Blade Runner 2049, which was “good,” and Alien: Covenant, which was very much “not good,” I’m comfortable with the way things worked out. Scott has some very high highs, it’s true, but his full body of work is decidedly spotty, especially in recent years.

Seeing as the Gorn seem to be the recurring bad guys for SNW, when can we expect an episode called Gorn with the Wind?
