Nintendo  doesn’t get enough credit for that. The SNES game pad was the blue print for controller design for years and still lives on through the Dual Shock and Xbox controllers. The four button cross pattern, shoulder buttons, the more rounded sides (yes Sega did it earlier, but it felt a bit too bulky). Oddly…

First choice Robert DeNiro, second choice... Jon Lovitz? Huh. Bit of a whiplash there.

Stray observations:

Wall-E is my favorite Pixar film and one of my favorite movies. Up was nothing special IMO.

RIP Ass Dan

My first recollection of Banks is as the radar tech in Airplane! who calls out altitudes: “He’s all over the place! Nine hundred feet up to 1300 feet. What an asshole!”

This whole comment section is the Olympic Games of unbelievably shitty takes. I wish with my whole heart that some sort of awards ceremony for unbelievably shitty takes is created so that some of you can finally chalk up some kind of win for yourselves. Who knows, maybe it would help. Probably not, though.

Oh my God I fucking LOVE the “Scientologeeeee!” dude! My dad was an airline pilot and I spent a LOT of time in airports so we absolutely loved this movie. One take—did not know that. Fucking brilliant.

My mother’s grandmother died the week that Airplane! came out in theaters, so she had to fly back to Louisiana and leave us in the care of our soon-to-be stepfather, who dealt with what to do with her 3 kids and his 2 over the weekend by taking us to see that movie. I was 5, so that’s a solid dumbass dad move. A lot…

They’re a bunch of smug, obnoxious trust fund rich kids putting colanders on their head and play-acting Heroes of the Proletariat. They’re going to become Republicans the second their student loans are paid off.

The Chapo folks biggest and most vocal fans are the actual stereotypical toxic Bernie Bros that you rarely see in the wild. I actually support Sanders, but jesus these people are unbearable. 

Harley is a great anti-hero, but the greatest Supervillain in DC history is Snowflame, the only supervillain powered by cocaine.

Hi, formerly Warren Oates here (lost my Kinja password and wanted something new). Any chance I can get out of the grays?

Poe was supposed to die in the first act. Isaac and his acting convinced JJ to change his mind and just plop him back into the movie with no explanation.

JJ is not good at planning ahead.

I guarantee he had NO backstory sketched out for Snoke OR the Knights of Ren.

He created mysteries and bailed, leaving Johnson with…

I’d been holding out hope that Palpatine would be more of an ephemeral presence, or only showed up in Rey’s visions or something, but no, of fucking course they literally resurrected the evil emperor. Because god forbid we deviate from the concept that there are, like, four people of consequence in the entire galaxy.…

He looks like the world's worst undercover cop.

I’d replace Grimes’ Visions with Art Angels but really, it’s kind of a toss up. Both are genius.

Not gonna quibble rankings but honestly confused how The National have four universally acclaimed albums in the 10's but not one of them made the list.
