Skip it. Skip it like you have never skipped anything before. Then go back in time and skip it again, just to be sure.

Interested to see how this goes. I am a HUGE fan of the original book. But I did not like the series much (aside from the phenomenal casting). This second season does look much better to me, but that could be because I am not comparing it to a book version and bringing my own bias to it.

So he is President of Disney Motion Picture Production. That pretty much covers all non-animated films from the Disney end. The Star Wars properties would fall under Kathleen Kennedy (Lucasfilm president, which also covers Indiana Jones) and Marvel properties would fall under Kevin Feige (Marvel films president).

Part of the issue that hurt their case is that in the past, both actors have praised the film, and Hussey in particular has stated in numerous interviews in the past that she was fine with the nudity and something that people should get over as not that big a deal. So it did make her suit seem simply opportunistic of…

Yeah, most of these I knew. But I will admit this is the first I heard of “Kitty” vs “Mickey”. I was never a fan of Hey Mickey, but the original just sounds better to me.

Or.... people who have a different opinion than you simply have a different opinion than you. I loved the show, and a huge group at my work used to get together and watch the episodes in sort of a weekly watch party in a big projection room. It was an event. But I can still have the opinion that the last season was…

Yes, she is, in fact, a mutant. The issue is that it depends on which film she is in as to what her powers are. In The Wolverine, her power is the ability to predict someone’s death (I forget what the specifics are). In Deadpool she can manipulate electricity.

Isn’t that Jeltz?

It was simply just an off-screen rivalry with Vin Diesel. But now, that’s over? What happened there?

So, they just start using Youtube shorts and everyone moves on?

You are likely thinking of DB2, and the “fridging” doesn’t stick. She actually has more screen time than some other supporting characters.

At $0.20 per gallon, the standard car owner in Texas is paying just $88 per year in gas taxes—far less than the hundreds more EV drivers will now be throwing into the pot.

Personally I would be thrilled to suspend congressmembers for brandishing assault rifles. But then again this is NBA policy, and he is getting millions in a contract with the employer that says “here are some basic things we can drop you for”, and just recently suspended him for. So this is not that hard to comply…

Eh, there is not THAT much stop motion in Beetlejuice. The sandworms, some underworld characters, a few other seconds here and there. There was a LOT of practical work, and that could still be there just fine.

Nah, the word evil is not supernatural. He was a horrible individual who victimized young girls (whether directly by rape or from afar with the photos). Then he murders family and their friends just because he might go back to jail. He is vile, evil, total shit, whatever you want to call it.

I am still unclear on this bit on Roku. Do I need a Roku device to watch the show, or is there a way to stream it over AppleTV or YouTubeTV?

Hating on Reagan is fine, but this is one of the most oft repeated myths that is WAY off base.

In the 1950's there was an increase of vets winding up in institutions over PTSD, amongst other things, and an increasing sentiment that institutions were cruel, costly, and ineffective (much like some dialogue on prisons…

Talked about, sure. But most social media is algorithmically designed to keep you outraged and getting you to engage. Anger and hatred of the “other” does that better than anything else. That is where the dollars are. And modern “news” sites are pretty much in the same mold these days.

when you get upset about me calling out the Jan 6 crowd

I should not butt in here, but I THINK Freddy was actually responding to Cancer up there. I could be wrong, but that makes more sense.
