oh man I miss 2012 AV Club and the Fringe comments section

I don't th8nk what you're saying is applicable to James Cameron, though.

To me, Mr. Reddick’s finest role was the criminally-underseen, Comedy Central show Corporate as over-the-top evil CEO, Christian DeVille. I highly recommend it for any Red-heads out there!

Loved him in everything, but my favorite thing is the Fringe episode “Brown Betty”, where he sings and plays a Steve Winwood song.

Fringe is outstanding. I think it got a bad rap for a while because everyone was expecting another Lost situation, but the writers on the show actually learned from the earlier show (and, JJ Abrams working on both aside, neither had much in common with the other, and Abrams bailed on both very early on) and the…

Well that fucking sucks. RIP.

Sadly some things kill ya no matter how good of shape you are in

I’ve never seen The Wire, but he was outstanding in Fringe. In fact, my only complaint about the show is that he wasn’t given a more prominent story line of his own.

Fuck this. First time I saw him was in the West Wing - he’s the cop who first questions Toby about the homeless man in the classic Christmas episode in the first season.

Just awful. He was a huge talent and made everything he was in better. I’ve been re-watching Fringe lately and it wouldn’t have been the show it was without him. He was such a pro and it showed.  This is hard news.

An actor who classed up anything he appeared in. 60 is way too young.

RIP.

What the fuck. Terrible. This dude was chiseled from granite as recently as 6 months ago. What happened?

i hope the film does very well.

Given that the Marvel family predates Power Rangers by a few decades, I think it’s more the other way around.

Look at cinematography: each year films with camerawork that are exquisite by any metric are completely overlooked. It is a relatively small group of people voting on things where I’ll wager many don’t even take the opportunity to watch all the nominees. This is promotion. It’s not purely about excellence.

If anyone is interested in one of Daniel Scheinert’s early shorts, this from a Sidewalk film festival filmmakers scramble in 2004. I’m pretty sure he was in HighSchool at the time

Or maybe they just weren’t very good….

Yes, clearly the Oscars need to go to the most popular films. Just look at how The People’s Choice Awards kicks their asses in ratings every year.
