As opposed to, what, the government intervening? I don’t think we’re quite there, big shooter. I’m just not sure what it is that actually happened you’re objecting to, here.

While I’ve no doubt the set was amazing, get white kids from the suburbs to embrace gangsta rap in the early ‘90s was not exactly a heavy lift. 

Oh, good, at last the REAL story can be told.

There’s a difference between “bad boyfriend” and “abuser” and/or “predator.” Adams was always kind of a dick, and everybody knew it. But the behavior that classified him as such and what came out with the various recent revalations were different things. 

Oh, man, that’s a tough call. I’ve seen some of my all-time favorite performances at various music festivals. But, after careful consideration, I think the top vote still goes to LCD Soundsystem at Panorama 2016. At least part of it occupying that top slot is contextual: I knew of the band before the retirement, but…

Everything about this - the cast, the creative team, the design, the reliance on old-school puppetry, etc. - just has me so excited....EXCEPT the fact that it’s a prequel. I so wish they’d found some way to move the story ahead from the original so that we’d have some narrative tension rather than already knowing…

Oh, au contraire! I succumbed to super hero cinema fatigue a long time before Endgame. :)  I’m kind of right there with you. But the money train on these things is so gargantuan, is all I was trying to say. We’re in the minority. 

MARVEL EXECUTIVE #1: Well, on the one hand, we could make literally billions more dollars. On the other hand, there’s a commenter on The AV Club who’s tired of our movies.

I agree! I am all for finding joy! Joy is great! But I think there’s a difference between finding joy and being so deeply invested in whether, say, a Star Wars movie is good that you get angry if you don’t find it to be so. Perspective is a healthy thing, isn’t it?

Yeah, see, I read it not as him saying he’s over the roles that made him famous and wealthy, but in the context of the previous question, in which the interviewer asked him to weigh in on the state of the Star Wars franchise...presumably at least partially because, as Pegg points out, he was associated with criticism…

I actually like what Pegg has to say, here.

This looks good enough to make me think they’ll get far enough into the story that I have to wonder how they’ll handle that subject matter in His Dark Materials that has always been considered so scarily controversial when it comes to adapting the trilogy.

Ah, yes, we’re about ripe for a return to “JOIN THE MILITARY BECAUSE IT’S FUCKING AWESOME” movies. It’s just exactly what we need in this modern American era. 

Well, eyes, we’ve had a good run.

I despise Kill Bill Vol. 1 but LOVE Kill Bill Vol. 2. It’s a thing. 

Any opportunity to resurface this sketch:

Maturin or GTFO.

If you’ve never been to SDCC...it takes literally hours of waiting in line to get into one of these Hall H panels. People camp out overnight.

Could it be that maybe they’re not afraid of some boos from fans, but have actual, logistical reasons to not be there, like they - *checks notes* - specifically said?
