I felt myself a little underwhelmed with the stakes in this edition, especially after ghost protocol and the crazy nuke launch thing. Then I realized that it truly doesn't matter, these films are just so fun and Ethan could be chasing after a syndicate member who stole his meatball sub, it doesn't matter.

It's refreshing to see a female character who has hand to hand combat training fighting men, being punched and thrown by men, and disabling or killing them on her own. Usually these types of characters have to face off against their female nemesis on the other side. I always felt those types of scenes were at once…

I have always felt like the show including and specifically pointing out the differences between stage and street dancers has always come off like a mix of pandering to an urban audience they want to grab, and straight up artistic slumming on the part of the judges. There is always this exotic narrative around street…

That's because Travis is from Virginia Beach where young gay dancer boys don't fit in with the military worshipping Christian conservative populous. I spent a year there and never heard so much open hate speech towards gays in my entire life. I am a straight man who goes running in very normal clothing and had guys…

James Buckley has 25 lines in this movie and they are all "no! we need to find a way out of here!"

I can't really see how a white collar could have won this game unless the top 3 was locked out by white collar. There has always been a bias against those in the game who were independently wealthy and whether or not these individuals were in fact millionaires, the perception that they were or that their skillsets set…

I've watched 20 seasons of Survivor, and I can't remember a less qualified winner than Mike, the guy who did everything wrong outside of winning challenges. He did nothing to insulate himself, he put a target on his back from the very beginning with his behavior, the way he treated his tribe mates and then those who…

That one shot with the hair up, (for those who have seen the film, you know what I mean) was brilliant but could have been so much scarier if the "It" wasn't pictured at all and the hair just goes up.
They played around a lot with perspective, the viewer is clued into the viewpoint of those who can and can't see the…

I'm not sure you could possibly feel dumber in any situation considering the hypocritical nature of your comments. You've made personal attacks against will because he made personal attacks, and you've made them towards me for some ridiculous idea that I rationalized his behavior. Did you miss the part where I called…

Justice would be a majority of the community outside shirin and will voting to deny will. They unanimously voted yes, and shirin blocked him, which is the low road.

Not only am I not being an apologist or a contrarian but I called will an asshole, irrational and terrible. Maybe you need to work on your readers comp. I was simply talking about how it makes sense that someone who's been possibly one of the worst players in years who no one seems to socialize with, who tried to do…

Shirin, we all go through hard times, how we react when sore spots are poked, especially by people who, despite being assholes are unaware of the true circumstances behind them, define us as people. Shirin is weak and really should have nipped will in the bud when he got started, or just left. It just wasn't her and…

Let's not forget that Hali was the one who didn't understand the concept of boiled water sanitation, giving that bearded white collar guy the hardest possible time after he got stung not once but twice, her best friend in the game telling him how to allieviate it by putting his feet in hot water. Likable character my…

If you honestly think that reality TV competitions need to be agents of social Change you are quite misguided. I don't have illusions that they are purely meritocratic, but I can say that I haven't found there to be much controversy around competitors of color being dismissed on these shows prematurely. Adaiah last…
