Same thing goes for Nathan Barnatt and his No Bones/boneless dance. Except something tells me that he won’t sue, and will settle for some undisclosed sum and/or a credit.

Red Tornado was looking better.

Fun episode. I’m still waiting for the moment where they’ll let Superman loose, and not have him constantly reined in “because Supergirl shouldn’t be overshadowed”, but still, it’s crazy how much those tv crossover are more enjoyable than their big screen counterpart.

Thing is, the YV movement is, at its core, a social media-born and fueled movement. And as we all know, social media is the place where, more often than not, fake news & misinformation abound, outrage is amplified beyond measure, people all know better than the experts, and kinda end up losing touch with how things…

If you look at the Yellow Vests “official” demands*, they’re somewhat far-right on immigration & borders, but mostly left (and far left) on social demands.

If by “the basic quality of the episodes”, you mean “this season has been very mediocre, heavy-handed and flat when written by Chibnall, and it’s barely starting to pick up now that it’s nearly over, and that Whitaker’s Doc is finally starting to come into her own” then yeah, we’re all in agreement.

Oh but most episodes, this season, have already been particularly divisise, and the source of numerous heated conversations between fans.

I really don’t care about Macron’s politics, but De Gaulle, Sarkozy, Mitterand and Chirac all said basically the exact same thing about Petain (“WW1's Petain = great ; WW2's Petain = awful and unforgivable ; both should be remembered”), if not worse. Except they didn’t have social media and the internet outrage machine…

My only problem with what was otherwise a fine match was the ref’s random counting. I get that the drama should take precedence over the “rules” of the Last Woman Standing, but in that case, the ref never seemed to apply some coherent counting methodology to the match.

Honestly, I think they’ll just give up on Cage & Rand for a while. I don’t see them trying to reconcile the vastly different situations both Danny and Luke are in at the end of their respective shows.

Eh, I’d rather watch a new franchise feat. the adventures of a female 005 or 006, with potential crossover/team-up with Bond, than a gender-switched Jane Bond which would replay the Bond hits, “but with a female Bond !”.

As far as the guerilla compound assault goes, it was all second unit, for lack of time and studio confidence in McTiernan, and IIRC, McT always disliked its very static, basic and cheap action movie style.

Riddick almost got away with it for the better part of its first half-hour, IIRC.

Indeed, I recently did a rewatch of both Alien & Predator franchises, and if there’s one thing that the Strause bros succeeded at with AvPR, it's the Predator. Too bad everything around him sucked, for the most part.

Hmm... I have a few issues with TNA/Impact being portrayed as “the company everyone loathed” (but then again, if the interwebs have taught me anything, it’s that expecting nuance in any way is pointless, everything is either awesome, or the worst ever, and it’s even worse in niche fandoms), but since the TNA of old is…

Man, i’m still kinda impressed by the fact that Regal managed to outswerve the swerviest swerve ever swerved by Vince Russo with his “hey, internet, I’m dead, mourn me, psych ! I’m not, i’m just starving attention”, but... f*** him.

Thing is, Noah’s joke was ultimately harmless... but it happened right at the time when italian newspapers, politicians, racists, far right, and so on, used the exact same “joke” to demean the team, deemed by them the “champions of the Third World”.

It was both my favorite ep of the season due to its quasi-backdoor pilot vibe (finally some humor, some superheroism, some action, some banter) and my least favorite, since you could remove it from the series, and everything else would still be the same.

Yeah, I’d argue she probably was the strongest actor on Smallville, alongside maybe Rosenbaum.

Nicki Clyne.
