The problem is that Top Gun: Maverick is basically “The Battle of Yavin, but with F-18's”

I was never the biggest fan of RTD’s run (not that I loved Moffat or Chibnall either*), so while I’m not overjoyed that he’s back, I do have to say: the costuming is on point.

Faux News is poison. But people are lapping it up. This is the kind of shit that preludes a fascist state and a deconstruction of democracy. We should know as a country - we’ve destabilized a lot of governments using almost the same methods. Its just ironic that its happening here and people are just as taken in by it…

you did a heinous crime

Absolutely. Both that play and the one Zion picked up his fourth foul were both flops.

It was a flop, just like the call on his fourth foul.

You’re really going to complain about this after Tacko committed about 7 fouls before finally fouling out? Dude figured out refs were only going to call about half of the fouls he committed by draping his arms over people as they went to the rim. Good on him for realizing how the refs were calling the game, but you…

Not at all. While I have a deep grievance against the UNC Board of Governors for how they absolutely torched our athletics program over a bunch of nothing (this is the Valvano/Personal Fouls stuff, and look it up, we haven’t won a conference title in anything anyone gives a fuck about since 1992) at some point we are…

State getting the Beef O’NIT is no snub nor injustice. Scoring 24 points against VPI guarantees you are pure shit as far as a television draw.

Colt’s Fans Dream Boldly

Still, Ryan said he thought “history is going to be very good to this majority” because of the tax overhaul passed under his leadership and increased funding for the military. He paused for effect, smiling like a Cheshire cat “That is, of course, because we’ll write the history, as we always have.”

Exactly. What’s one more week, or one more month for that matter, compared to filling a vacancy that’s been around for a long time with someone who (as Trump was crowing circa the nomination) might well serve for another 30 years? The risk of losing their narrow Senate majority and getting gridlocked, that’s what.

Truth.

I’m embarrassed to admit how happy that made me. 

That’s similar to my take: I’ve always said that they should have split TDK into two movies, with a Joker-dominated first movie, and then a Two Face-centric second installment released six months or a year after. End the first film basically with the Joker escaping and Rachel dying. I think the first half of TDK is…

Watching The Dark Knight feels like work towards the end, and Batman Begins is just a fun cinematic experience that doesn’t camp itself beyond being entertaining. DK seems to drag on a bit - if the Joker’s plan wasn’t so intricate and marvelous it would have become just like Dark Knight Rises. I still rank DK highly…

Ahhh, you beat me to the punch! Yeah, Begins is much better than TDK. TDK (rightfully) earns a lot of praise because of Heath Ledger’s Joker stealing the movie, but ultimately it’s focused more on Joker rather than any other character. Begins works better as a whole story, without being really carried by any one…

If anything they should have kept Two Face around for the next movie to be the main antagonist.

You know what? I’m gonna go there. I prefer Begins to The Dark Knight.

That third down play was actually a performance art piece entitled Ennui
