That guitar isn't even upside down!

I agree. Last week's episode was the highlight of the season, and would've made a perfect season ending. This episode felt more like it should be the first episode of next season.

Sure it does. Every situation he's in leads to another, which has repercussions on other people, and so on. He doesn't have a traditional narrative arc, but everything that happens has an effect on him. The feather that twists and floats in the wind in the beginning and end of the movie isn't exactly a subtle…

Aren't those people mostly dead or gone from LA now anyway though? That's like when talking about how College Team A beat College Team B 23 years ago and trying to pass it off as statistically relevant today. They are the same teams only in name only.

SPOILER:

They should've had Damon lip-sync to ABBA, everyone would've been happy. I hear lip-syncing is big these days with the kids!

[Movie title]: Golden Globe Edition will be a thing now, where they add a gag-reel and a musical number during the credits.

We can snark all we want, but at the end of the day, Banks is getting paid a handsome amount of money to play dressup in a pretty awesome costume. Even a shitty movie has to be kind of a blast to do, at least in the beginning when they get to put these things on. Well, for 5 seconds, before they have to move around, I…

For Power Rangers, that seems like it would hit the right tone though, no?

JJ Abrams is very good at creating images that indicate a compelling story is about to unfold. He's just not as good at having the images TELL a compelling story.

It's not particularly gory or graphic. It is hilarious, too.

Taft counts as 3, so adjust your math accordingly.

He was in "Everest", according to IMDB. Coulda fooled me. I saw it and have no memory of him in it.

That is perfect.

Avatar alone is better than anything JJ Abrams has done.

"The Force Awakens was competently bland and reverential of the series
and fans to a fault, but people loved the shit out of it, and I imagine
that is the baseline they will follow going forward."

Yeah, the main story of the prequels is fine. It's just that Lucas is a shitty director and screenwriter. I so wish that Lucas involvement wouldn't have been more than "Story by" on those movies.

Art Vandelay?

Introducing Ball-o-rama: you'll feel like YOU get kicked in the nuts!

Avatar in 3D is one of the greatest movie theater experiences of my life.
