You know what’s weird and I’m probably in a minority. When the whole pandemic happened and I stopped going to the theater, the thought of not being able to see foreign language, art house films, and classic movies in my local theater ever again, bugged me. I don’t mind watching these big budget movies at home. I think…

Warner probably realizes that even with a vaccine, covid is going to be with us for most of 2021.

As someone who lives 8 hours from a theater, yep. I haven’t been to one since Heath Ledger’s joker graced the screen. Bring on the at home movies, my consumer grade 70" 4k display for $500 and my $200 soundbar blow any theater experience out of the water.

Yes, if it means I won’t get the 2019 version of Black Death.

Yeah, it’s really a heads-up for content developers who have some level of ownership. Disney is not a shop for gaming creativity. They couldn’t do anything with Epic Mickey in the long run, couldn’t make Infinity last either, maybe had a success with Kingdom Hearts but not from their own shops, had Ducktales but again…

“How have you avoided them?”

Lets consider the more egregious part they didn’t understand. Basic storytelling.

I don’t know why they are surprised when they built the scene to not impose guilt. The scene was specifically set up with no choice for Dany. The Tarlys refused to bend the knee and refused to take the black. Realistically Dany could have imprisoned the but the show never presented this as an option. If Dany had been…

“In our minds, we thought the Randyll Tarly scene was disturbing. Then I watched it with a crowd of people at a friend’s house and they were cheering. Weirdly, the audience just didn’t care. They loved Dany,” he said.

You cannot spoil that which will never be published, Beth.

... it finally hit me.

First of all, it’s not even based on Lovecraft’s work. There’s only a single incident in the entire novel that’s even remotely Lovecraftian. Most everything else is inspired by different, non-Lovecraft stories from across the genre.

You do realize it’s based on a book called LOVECRAFT COUNTRY by Matt Ruff, not on any of H.P. LOVECRAFT’s works. I mean, it’s like preferring an adaption of STAR WARS instead of an adaption of SPACE BALLS 

Something that some won’t understand when they yell ‘Keep your race politics outta my scary movies!’ is that Lovecraft, in heightened particular, by his own extreme racism, strongly injected racial politics into the conversation of horror.

And not Lake’s exploration of personhood or right to exist as more than a tool? There were some serious Blade Runner vibes in season 2 that were immeasurably more engaging than the pseudo-religious delinquents. Not that I won’t watch season 3 when I start a weeks free trial of HBO-Max and cancel it on day 6 because…

Writer 1: “Let’s get Tilda Swinton to play Jareth! Cate Blanchett would do it well too!”

I believe it’s a play on the phrase “What is dead may never die” which was a common saying by one of the factions in Game of Thrones.

Can we get Stevenson to do MOTU instead? She could trick me into caring about He-Man beyond his rogues gallery!

Binge watched it over the past two days. I don’t think it could have been any better. If you would have told me a few years back that, a rough and tough big burly man in my 40s would tear up at the finale of a She-Ra cartoon, I would have called you crazy. But here we are.
