Farewell AV Club commenters! Thank you for the company and the laughs over the years. It's helped me through some difficult times. I would stay but almost everything I enjoy engaging with people on has been gone from the site for a while now, never to be mentioned again, even on WoT. There are other places still

I've enjoyed engaging with people on this site but I won't be creating a kinja account. I don't mind change but there's so much content being cut back and new, non-entertainment/culture content being added, it's obvious you guys are under pressure to deliver and it's just not been the same for a while. I can

Jon is simply an idiot.

I was ready to write off the series after the first two limp episodes but this was invigorating. The office fight scene worked so well despite the difficulty of managing so many characters and dynamics. Terrific moments for all the Defenders.

Not bad, I enjoyed seeing Jones and Daredevil again (Foggy and Karen for sure), but Danny continues to be a petulant child and Cage, while cool, still suffers from being invulnerable. The Iron Fist had an effect on Cage but in 90% of fights The Defenders are going to have - with ninjas most likely, unfortunately -

Why they force you poor Americans to watch these episodes as a single film I don't know. As many have said, watch the series instead if you can.

So, even when the AVClub reviews a TV series is doesn't show up in WoT anymore? Nice.

I'm all for keeping Brendan Gleeson in work.

Agreed. It's unfair to say that the film or Urban's portrayal didn't blow anyone away. The people that saw it and enjoyed it became pretty adamant about wanting a sequel with the same recipe.

I still remember that arc with a guy dripping Tyrannosaurus blood down a piece of string into his downstairs sleeping neighbour's mouth in an (ultimately successful) attempt to create a genetically manipulated hybrid! It was so slow and deliberate, methodical. Scared the crap out of the young me.

Holy shit this was good fucking television.

Grading on AV Club film reviews has become like IMDB, where brigades of (usually teenage) fans and haters up or down vote according to their preferences regardless of the film itself. Perhaps preventing grading until the actual release (which I believe IMDB does now) would help.

I just got PUBG and I've played two games.

I enjoyed this. Maybe it's not as prime television as they thought it might be but it's perfectly entertaining and well done.

I can understand them not reviewing everything that gets a positive response but it pisses me off when they don't mention those shows in the WoT roundups. They used to, but now nothing, not a mention of shows like Wynona Earp, Dark Matter, Killjoys, etc. Pfft.

The Thor movies aren't the bestest but they are the funnest.

Self burn.

If you're in a corridor fighting ninjas, or whatevah, just stick Luke Cage at the front and make some tea.

I hope they can fix up Iron Fist. Better character writing with less whiny toddler. Better fight prep, rumour was actors were given days to prepare. There's a good series in there somewhere.
