Yeah The Croods 2 has been planned ever since the release of the first one, but has been in development hell for some reason: it’s been cancelled, uncancelled, changed directors multiple times, and then pushed back a couple years for no clear reason. The whole situation is really pretty strange.

Wait what? Most shows are on midseason break now. 

We definitely have not seen Jack as a child: that was Kevin’s son we saw in the S3 finale. I definitely think that the flashforwards we saw at end of last season’s finale take place a couple years after the last time we see Jack here, and that the “they” that Toby refers to are him and Lucy (and possibly their child).

This post is really just begging to become memorialized as a copypasta.

I think the original plan was for Loki to be already possessing or influencing Selvig at the start of The Avengers, but the order of events ended up being changed up a bit in the final product.

Uh, every Alexander Payne movie is pretty clearly a comedy, at least to the same degree that Downsizing is? His first two in particular are very farcical and have tons of jokes and laugh lines. And Nebraska is depressing at many times, but is played very much as a comedy for a lot of it’s run time. 

Mr. Robot!

Apparently HBO is making an anthology series based on it, so this comparison may be more apt than you realized!

The hype still seems to be staying pretty alive, I still hear a lot of people talking about it and hearing about people watching it for the first time. I feel like the audience only grows in size each season, and I doubt S3 will be any different in that regard. It functions pretty similarly to a movie series that

Nah, it’s just that Jessica Jones S3 is already in the middle of production, so they’re just waiting till after it premieres to announce the cancellation. 

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and guess you didn’t read the story very carefully.

Carell was absolutely incredible in Last Flag Flying: he really delivers an incredibly muted and subtle performance that reveals little hint of his usual persona. That’s really just a fantastic film overall, I’m kind of baffled at how muted it’s reception was upon release. 

Pretty sure this is a minseries, isn’t it? I didn’t get the impression that it was open ended. 

I’ll be kinda surprised if Collette even gets nominated honestly, horror is rarely recognized in these kinds of awards.

Hmmm or maybe apparently not... no sooner had I typed that, I checked my Moviepass app and it told me I had seen three movies this month and didn’t get any more free ones. Alas :( 

It should keep working like normal until it runs out, I assume it just won’t give you an option to renew the annual plan (I don’t think they ever promised it would anyway). Plus the annual subscribers all get unlimited movies (albeit only the ones Movipeass lets you see) till the plans expire though, so see everything

Wait, this doesn’t air until 10pm? That seems bizarrely late for a children’s show: I really don’t understand the logic to how these kinds of shows are programmed.

I thought The Future was pretty damn great, and way better than the entirely forgettable “Me, You, and Everyone We Know”.

Though Lynch used a Spanish language cover version, so I’d the original still manages to be fair game for use without being insanely obvious or reminiscent of that scene. 

I think that’s unfair to Lindelof really. As much as “Lost” built up some mysteries that were never resolved in terribly satisfying ways, it also had quite a few that payed off big time. Plus Lindelof always makes sure to craft episodes that work as entertaining and satisfying hours of television in their own right,
