Considering Max Landis is the showrunner and is a fan of Red Letter Media it definitely seems likely

I'm surprised you felt disappointed in a few of those, examples being X-Men and Pets which weren't particularly well received in general.
The only ones of those I really found "disappointing" were The Nice Guys (still liked it, just not as much as I thought I would), Deadpool (same idea as The Nice Guys), and Fatastic…

surely trying to get to the top to be in the safety of their home makes more sense

If you couldn't even find Civil War or Doctor Strange to be good then why bother watching studio blockbusters at all? What are you really expecting from them?

not sure what any of those have to do with Whedon

at this point I'd say the opposite in that people hate it way more than it deserves

that's the opposite of irony. He literally admitted that he wants to work on original works since he had previously been recycling…

I don't really understand the anti J.J. Abrams backlash considering he has only made exactly 1 reboot. I get that people just regurgitate whatever South Park says, but putting at least a bit of mental energy into what you type would be helpful

as with anything that is well loved, people will come out to be contrarian thinking their opinion is more valid than all of the drones who were manipulated into liking it.

You seem to be looking at a lot of your own comments then.

I also wouldn't really like to see a situation where Trump is furious with Putin though. With Trump's temper there could be some pretty big consequences

Where have you heard that the hype is fading? As far as I know it's still topping best of year lists and is a favorite going into awards season. A couple people trolling on the avclub board aren't a great representative

Comic book universes don't really have a tone since the writers aren't really bound by anything.

Humor is so subjective that I suspect it just gelled with some people more than others. If the jokes don't land for someone (e.g. me), then it's basically a below average, generic superhero origin story. If the jokes work, I assume it must be a great comedy that happens to be a generic superhero origin story.

wait people dislike the Harry Potter films?

And I'll come out and say this: I think The Force Awakens and Rogue One are better than Episode IV and V

The comments the reviewer keeps making about how people reacted to the tape only make sense if they didn't think Christine sent it herself.

You should consider what the word "racist" actually means before throwing it around so casually

It's definitely possible I misused the term. Even after being told I used it incorrectly, I rechecked online to make sure I was understanding it correctly and it's surprisingly difficult to find a consensus meaning.

I mean I guess if you remove all context, just "counting down in Arabic" obviously isn't race-baiting. When said counting down happens on a plane right after saying to your friend while filming "Hey how do you think people will react if I start loudly counting down from 10 in Arabic", then it is clear you are trying…
