Why would anyone want to watch the trailer like this? Especially when it is supposed to be released monday anyways? I used to hunt for MCU tidbits with the best of them but I enjoy it all more now that I’ve stuck to just watching the first trailer or two and enjoying the blissfully ignorant surprises

For that matter, I think Conan has some free time.

John Hodgman is an amazing choice. He’d be great.

And you are underplaying Claire McNear. Yes, she literally wrote the book on the history of Jeopardy!, but she’s also the reason Mike Richards is gone as host (and maybe executive producer?).

“Jim, you’re six eleven and you weigh ninety pounds, Gumby has a better body than you. Boom roasted. Dwight, you’re a kiss-ass. Boom roasted. Pam, you failed art school, boom roasted. Meredith, you’ve slept with so many guys you’re starting to look like one. Boom roasted. Kevin, I can’t decide between a fat joke or a…

If Jennings has baggage from his podcast, its that he’s overtly liberal, and Sony may be concerned about alienating conservative viewers. The same would be true of Burton, and it may be that Richards’ blank-white-page personality is what won him favour in the first place.

It’s a joke that is right in line with countless Phyllis jokes or having Meredith say in her experience, guys prefer having sex in positions where they can’t see your face. They didn’t shy away from jokes that were flat out mean to the performers. 

so someone suggested that a character tell her character to lose 15 pounds? like i understand she plays the character and how that translates to her body, but what was the context? if it was BJ Novak, wouldn’t that fit with Ryan being an asshole? I am really at a loss here as to why this is a “thing.”

STOP CALLING IT JEP

Once again, he was certainly not the worst guy for the gig.

Given that the MCU has Tom Holland and the Venomverse has escalated things by drafting Tom Hollander, it now falls to the DCEU to assert its dominance by hiring Tom Hollandest

He didn’t choose Steve because he wanted someone untrained, he wanted that understood power. A “little guy” who knew what it was like to not have any. Peggy would’ve understood that too, but for different reasons. She’s got training and physical fitness, but she’s a woman in a man’s world, having to fight sexism at…

I liked that Howard Stark name-dropped Hedy Lamar as the German actress He spent time with. For those who don’t know, as well as being considered one of the most beautiful women in the world, Hedy Lamar was also a genius who came up with the frequency hopping idea that modern cell phone technology is based on. IIRC…

well, 2 Chainz went by the name Tity Boi for years because he drank his mother’s breastmilk into his teens, so i mean, rap names are a wild ride.

Hallo Mr Torchinsky, why you say about my product? much designed to reducing the fuel and much save money on environment. Not everyone much can afford great Changli, even we all want one really bad a one! I decide to reduce fuel consumption very much! Thanks for my website, even you say things I know you enjoy about…

I just want Kyle & Beck to get a chance to do an I Think You Should Leave style absurdist comedy show of their own, free from the constraints of a show that only lets them mostly loose at 12:50 AM.

Clearly you never saw Under the Skin.

It’s not about Covid.    Her contract explicitly said theatrical release only, and Disney didn’t do that.   So they needed to renegotiate, and they didn’t.   They need take hit for breaking that contract, one way or another.

Disney probably made the right decision to switch to a multi-platform release, but that doesn’t mean they were right to deny Johansson her cut.

One of the things the MCU had going for it, almost from the beginning, was that the cast genuinely seem to like each other. Other than a few names here and there that didn’t fit (Howard, Rourke, Norton), they hang out with each other, banter, follow each other on social medias, get matching tattoos, etc... Getting…
