I like the suitcase armour, but otherwise, agreed.

Both the author and the editor (via note) refer to this as a recap on the page. The blurb for episodes 2 and 3 also says recap.

Oooh, look at you mr. fancy pants, with your “local rental shop”. Just gonna hop in your flying robot taxi to get over there I bet.

I spent last night adding a bunch of movies I would kind of like to own to my queue in the hopes that they’ll be among the up to ten that Netflix will be sending for me to keep. Fingers crossed. 

My biggest concern is the cache of movies and shows that have never been streamed and may never be streamed. Whether it’s rights issues or just never having been processed, there must be countless works — including masterpieces or just very very good/entertaining stuff — that may have only been available to a wide…

I resubscribed to the DVD services this past May when I heard it was ending. I had last subscribed 6 years previously. While their movie library did now  resemble a run down video store on its last legs, it still had enough 2000s era dodgy horror movies that nobody will probably ever bother re-releasing streaming or…

Reed Hastings founded Netflix August 1997 which was just a few months after DVD players were available for purchase in the US. You can’t say he wasn’t a visionary. 

I haven’t used the DVD by mail service in years, so I’m certainly part of the reason why they decided to end it, but this does kinda suck because they had a shit-ton more physical media than they have available to stream.

The earliest example I can remember off the top of my head was the final trailer for 2015's The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Suicide Squad trailer was the first thing I thought of after watching this. Also made me remember that sometimes the best movies of the year are the trailers to the worst movies of the year...

Welcome to AV Club!

Ok, so why did the episode get a B-?

You can tell a lot about people from how they treat the people who they have power over.

In the last few years, we’ve seen exposés from the sets of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and Dr. Phil, featuring accusations of bullying leadership styles and deteriorating mental health among staffers.

Jimmy Fallon? A piece of shit? Say it isn’t so!

This has been an open secret for years. I know multiple people who worked at that place, and boy does it sound like it sucks.

Yet more reason we should be praising Seth Meyers and almost everything he’s involved in. (Except for his stint as Weekend Update host.) I fucking love his show; I’m currently missing it so hard. He does the ONLY funny Trump parody, and basically made the “tears running down his face” joke.

Fallon’s “funniness” is…

This is what happens when you give a humorless dweeb a little bit of power

Another clown who got popular off of other peoples' writing accused of being a POS. I’m shocked.

I’m still amazed, all these years later, that this vaguely funny man got this gig in the first place.
