And that he knows how to plead for his life in a dozen languages, modern AND ancient. What an awesome character.

I assumed at first she was just pretending to be her own wife, because that's the way people are in the Kimmy-verse.
I'm going back and forth on whether it would have been funnier that way. I guess it depends on whether the writers thought the character would show up again.

The Mummy Returns was just too many things. Too many villains to keep track of. Too many magic McGuffins, Too many coincidences, Too many CGI scenes that CGI technology was not yet capable of.
On the plus side, it had the London chase sequence; and the ancient sword-fight between Rachel Weisz and Patricia Velasquez…

Few plot developments surprise us anymore. We all know the Titanic is going to hit the iceberg eventually. The pleasure is in the journey, not the destination.
And to be fair, even leaving Breaking Bad out of the equation, the creators established in the first scene that Jimmy is going to end up alone, selling cinnamon…

You didn't feel tension in tonight's episode?

Better off financially you mean? He hasn't got a wife and two sons to support.

Let's see how you like Isaac in thirty years time.

And the two films are hardly comparable. The all-out war on Jones and Ghostbusters was vicious. The movie's very existence offended them.Their biggest objection to Wonder Woman so far is that they haven't been allowed to buy tickets to some specific showings.

A second-hand rando quote? Somebody's just trying to push buttons.

750 comments for a movie that "didn't make a huge impact"?

"Wonderful, wonderful players….and Leslie Jones."

A rich Indian lady, Titus! Haven't you been paying attention to the plot?

Isn't Jaqueline's Lakota heritage common knowledge by now? The Snyders paraded her in front of the press.

Having to share residuals with the original creators is the one reason why they won't do this. Same reason why Patrick McGoohan never confirmed that Number 6 was John Drake, or that the Equalizer was Callan.

Germans are the bad guys. That's nothing new. Listen to their accents. Right away you want John McClain to start firing away at them with guns and clever quips.

Not at first maybe.

Where are these two guys going to find a woman on a Friday night to discuss comic book movies with? Huh?

They originally sought Christina Ricci for the role. She would have looked the part at least.
Jim Broadbent is a phenomenal actor, but his part was definitely underwritten. He's playing one of the most notorious public figures in NYC history, but the film reduces him to the role of expository idiot lecturer.

The original Star Wars had a jazz band and a discriminatory policy towards robots. Luke is a whiny teenager who wants to move off the family farm. Han Solo is a bootlegger who needs one big score to pay off his loan shark. The movie's success has always rested on the familiarity of the universe and its occupants to…

The original movie didn't have a "chosen one" narrative; just a call for Luke to follow in his father's footsteps. Otherwise, he's just slightly above adequate. (Something the prequel and sequel trilogies both should have remembered in developing their protagonists.)
