In terms of influence it's not even close. Blade is directly responsible for a hell of a lot of stuff that came later.

"Note: Saban Films is owned by Saban Capital Group, a part owner of Univision Communications, the parent company of Fusion Media Group, which owns The A.V. Club."

This one is ridiculously dark in a different way. It's not that the reviews themselves are so bad (even the darker ones are more funny than "whoa, hardcore man!") but that the American version plays the long game. There's a cumulative effect that is impeccably constructed. By the end he's basically Walter White, in…

Well the Batman vs Superman theatrical edition was 151 minutes and the Extended Edition was 183 minutes. The theatrical cut *felt* long as shit because it was really weirdly paced, while the length of the director's cut felt just fine. I had issues with the DC but the length is not one of them.

Yes, marvellous reviews Emily! SIX STARS!

As someone who listened to Chocolate Starfish all the time back in 2000 I completely understand and empathise with this form of temporary insanity.

For the right amount of money I'd get a hoverboard tattooed on my face.

I think he's a pretty shitty director in general but if all you're worried about is the action scenes I'm sure you'll be good. There's not a chance in hell he storyboards and directs them by himself.

Welcome to the AV Club.

James Wan, Matt Reeves. Literally everyone they've hired who isn't Zack Snyder is a better director than Joss Whedon. Though I guess we'll see about Patty Jenkins.

I pick Uwe Boll.

Geez, that's it? Those are my 2 choices?

Can't he just write it and NOT direct?

No, she's been like this since her days at TDS. Larry Wilmore also did some stuff standing up and he certainly didn't have a similar problem.

I was never a Plaza fan, but she is fucking AMAZING in Legion.

Hahaha like they'd hang out with gay people.

John Oliver too, though to a lesser degree. And they both have some good material, but their delivery is ridiculously smug.

*watches Ilsa*

I think my chief reaction was: "man, that is one sexy looking holocaust"

More like Jack the Ripped, amirite??
