So there are these three things that we’ve established in the season that if we don’t pay off, it means that they’re bad writers. And the Duffer brothers are very good writers.

I thought about just letting my hair grow out but the combination of not being nearly as physically active as I normally am and staying inside and feeling my hair get long and gross... drove me to cut my own hair just to physically feel more comfortable.

What I enjoy about the BA videos is the simple camaraderie in them. Might be a stretch (Mr. Fantastic) to compare them to superheroes but I think a big part of the appeal of the Avengers movies is seeing how these different larger-than-life personalities interact with each other.

Yes, they definitely crafted everything so that Michael Jordan is playing something as close to “Michael Jordan” as possible — perfect portrait of a “vehicle” created specifically for an actor/celebrity.  That said, I think there are a lot of actors who get accused of delivering the same kind of performance for…

IIRC, these older Air Jordan ads spawned the movie. I remember seeing SPACE JAM opening weekend, when I was in college, and thinking it was pretty lame.

Jesus wept.

Okay, I confess I never got into DR. WHO — mainly because of the daunting volume of material. I started watching the Eccleston series but got pulled away from it and never got back to it... but the series seems like something I’d be really into and I’ve read a bit about the Eccleston behind-the-scenes drama, so the…

Love floats.  Fare thee well, Kelly.

Batman’s infamous foe, The Puffin!

I adored FRAGGLE ROCK so much.  I know the property has gone through several aborted reboot attempts over the years, including a movie version that wanted to make them more hip and irreverent.  This teaser seems to be firmly in the camp of not breaking the mold.

That Trolls squeakquel was definitely a test run. It’s weird because these big studios have all this content that’s ready to go -- that could theoretically be released to VOD -- but it’s content that’s been funded for big theatrical releases.  Even when theaters start reopening, a lot of studios aren’t gonna want to…

I thought I’d read somewhere that they had an ending in mind for the series. Mistakenly, apparently, I even thought it they’d said the complete story would be told in 3 seasons.

JJ Abrams also produced that CASTLE ROCK show on Hulu — that should probably be mentioned here. I wonder if it connects to OVERLOOK.

I don’t think the people were necessarily targeting Ridley for TROS — but when you work so hard on something like this and you’re literally the poster child of the project, I don’t think you can help but be a little hurt by the wave of negative responses.

For a long time, I thought it was silly for an audience to applaud in a movie theater where the people who made the movie were not present. “Applause is for live events where the performers can hear the response.”

I adore ADVENTURE TIME / Pendleton Ward and had no idea he had an “adult” series for Netflix — something to look forward to in this nightmare reality.

I’m glad she got that scene in purely because it was important to her artistically, and I’m all for artists getting to do what they want in studio settings.

Yeah, I actually think it would fantastic for everyone. Studios might not want to risk putting their new material out when everyone’s still testing the waters. Studio re-releases of their back catalog was a regular occurrence back in the day, of course, before DVD and VCRs.  Disney used to do this a lot during the…

Though all these dates are tentative at this point, I’m encouraged by the mere thought that movie theaters will be open again within this year.  Obviously, all of this is new territory and we have no idea when we’re gonna be able to re-emerge from our caves.  I’m curious how much notice we’ll have about when…
