Not sure which way your metaphor and its direction are going, but for the record:

He sounded so much like Roy Kent that I was expecting him to turn out to be Brett Goldstein in surrealistic prosthetics.

Also note that in the last scene Ted juuust happens to say “Once in a blue moon, there’s a game so bad...”

I am a light Reddit user and am stunned at how many questions could be just Googled, AND have been asked twenty times in the past month on the same subreddit.

Like in comic book movies where “special thanks to” can mean “these people wrote the stories that we adapted for this movie, and didn’t get paid a second time”.

I think the Horizon: Zero Dawn credits are literally 40 minutes long.

No, it’s Rogers, but the actor is black.

This is where my consistent use of closed captions comes back to bite me: the CC blew the joke an instant before the photo went on-screen.  I mean, I still laughed loudly, but.

There’s already been a minor update:

This is something I love about MCU movies, that there’s always a chance that the thing you “know” is going to happen, isn’t.

I have to say, I spent most of that locker-room scene wondering why everyone was allowing it to happen. I guess (we now know in more detail) Ted’s got his father-issues stuff, but I would expect Beard to tell Tartt Sr. “time for you to go” much, much earlier.

Never begin a sentence with “You always...”

And Texas is about to make medication abortions illegal after 7 weeks:

This is not your point, but please be aware that nobody in the universe would state that they “believe in Yahweh”. If you mean Jews, observant Jews do not pronounce the name of God at all, and even less observant Jews never, ever, say that particular thing. The word you ascribed is a transliteration thought up at some…

You know, I’m beyond caring about this particular point.  In US politics, “pro-life” is just a term for “anti-abortion”, and trying to go deeper into it is a waste of time.  (Unless they specifically bring a Catholic justification, in which case, yeah, let’s talk about that death penalty.)

OR, they could just pack the voting machinery with Republicans whose sole policy commitment is “Democrats votes are fraudulent”.  

I agree it’s aesthetically amazing.  I just don’t agree that those are “playthroughs”.

On Neir: Automata: I get the urge to call bullshit whenever people talk about “you have to beat it multiple times to get the real ending”. The truth is that the game is just misleadingly broken up with fake credit screens. SPOILERS:

I haven’t seen it for a bit, but the biggest “surprise” was that Tina Fey and Tim Meadows aren’t doing sketch characters; it’s “real acting” which I’m sure is insulting to somebody to say but anyway.

Speaking of similar airplane movies, The Spy Who Dumped Me was super-fun.
