Maybe not so much the subject matter as exceptionally bad timing. Confederate was announced the first year of the Trump presidency, three years after Ferguson, two years after the Charleston massacre, and about a month before the “Unite The Right” rally in Charlottesville. I don’t think Benioff and Weiss are secret

This isn’t a big movie, but that’s certainly not a new concept...

Twilight Zone covered that idea pretty well.

Weird to see Conan O’Brien there.

Boo, they should have adapted Nod by Adrian Barnes instead “Dawn breaks over Vancouver and no-one in the world has slept the night before, or almost no-one. A few people, perhaps one in ten thousand can still sleep, and they’ve all shared the same golden dream. A handful of children still sleep as well, but what

When I read Dynetics, the first thing I think of is a hoax religion.

One of the things that really made them pop, for me, on Discovery was that they felt like a breath of fresh air. I’m not one of those “this isn’t Trek” types, but the best way I can phrase it is “you got Star Trek in my Discovery!”

Honestly, I can understand that not every new Trek show is everyone’s cup of Earl Grey, hot, but I like them all in their own way. I am really looking forward to this though. I really liked all of these folks on their stint in Discovery, and am looking forward to them getting their own show.

Now that Is a group of genetically gifted humans. Even on shitty zooms they are gorgeous.

“That really sucks lady!”

I’m watching it too. It doesn’t have Scott Buck producing. He was showrunner on the last season of Dexter and executive producer of Inhumans and the first season of Iron Fist. 

In this case, there is no reason to.

Character actor Margo Martindale has got some (what we call in Australia) tuck shop lady arms going and hasn’t caused a stir.

Arguably, Space Force didn’t get a fair shake in Trump’s term. Some people believe it’s a smart idea, even some of my colleagues at Gizmodo.

It can’t be. We didn’t get the fully edited version of “Don’t Touch That Dial” and Now in Color” they got.

I can see that. I know that after A. not explicitly seeing any return-moments in Endgame and B. Seeing it played for laughs in Spider-Man, seeing it as chaotic and confusing from Monica’s point of view here was very interesting.  Especially with the idea that she had dozed off and thus was snapped and unsnapped in her

Richard Kelly; now there’s a career trajectory that started so strong as an immediate indie darling, then just careened off a cliff and exploded. I wondered just now if he ever came back from The Box, albeit on a smaller scale and, nope. Seems not 

But she’s so excited to get clean! She’s so excited to get clean!  She’s so... scared of not getting clean!
