I thought it was sad, bad sex, even if Amy Adams seemed to be getting off.

So, is there any indication that this season will be the last? Because I love the show, but I love shows with strong endings, and I feel like it’s time to wrap things up and bring Jimmy over to Saul once and for all.

Lost was the show that lodged in me a deep and abiding distaste for anything Damon Lindelof touches. Even if the pilot was compelling television (and it was), the subsequent episodes — even within Season 1 — have made sure I’ll never go near that show again. No bingeing here. Won’t get fooled again.

Well, I hope it doesn’t go all the way away. I need a site like this, that has informed criticism/reviews and stays the hell away from our political cesspool as much as possible.

No opprobrium for I ❤️ Huckabees?

Sorry Katie Rife — Lucky Number Slevin is more than a retread. It’s got a look, some good reveals, and one of the last decent good guy / bad guy performances by Bruce Willis (even if his character is the regrettably-named Mr. Goodkat). And Lucy Liu being too adorable for her own good. Also, there is much excellent…

Ok then. Thanks for the tip! (I had to look that up: “Any sufficiently advanced troll is indistinguishable from a genuine kook.”)

Uh, no. It was already divided. Incivility has been heaped upon the leftish side of our spectrum ever since Rush Limbough and Ann Coulter came to prominence. My only objection to David Simon and Robert DeNiro’s recent outbursts is that they’re so unsubtle. When you’ve got a sitting target like President Caligula and…

Slavery post-1600 in Western Civ was always about making money.

It’s not really true that if an entity isn’t the cause it can’t be part of the solution. As you say, the causes of homelessness are complex, and as such can’t be laid at the feet of any one agency.

I’ve already bailed on the season, effective after Ep. 1. Sorry if that makes you feel I’m somehow controlling you.

I saw this last night and it was great, but I saw it in an empty theater. I can see why it’s a difficult sell. America might not be up for the ugly reality of motherhood. Tonally, it’s odd: the humor is plentiful but muted while a sense of disaster slowly builds. The payoff was fantastic though.

I think you left out a couple of things: the intersection of real-world and movie-world backstory made Robert Downey Jr the most credible Tony Stark possible—everyone knew how dissipated he had been, and Tony’s redemption arc was RDJ’s too.

I was ungreyed on io9 until I disagreed with CJA about the Hugo nominations a couple of years ago. Then they quashed my mojo. Really bothered me too, since I had been happily contributing there for a long time up til then.

Or teeth, dude. Ultron does not need teeth.

We’ve been losing all along. For years the Washington press corps has traded investigative writing/behavior for access to people in power. I’m always glad when someone calls them on it.

Winner.

Not digging it. After being traumatized all year by the mass slaughter of civilians for reasons that make no sense, I don’t really want to be “entertained” by a fiction depicting that too. Maybe it’s time we rolled back the hyper-violence on television?

Just checking.

I just binge-watched the whole thing, totally worth it. This episode was devastating. The lens flares... I was afraid Gordon was gonna ‘walk into the light’, and he did.
