I was just sitting here thinking about whether possible-reality or revenge-fantasy is the point of this film, and I realized this kind of thing is probably a lot more likely to happen in 2015 than 2005, with young girls becoming educated on social justice and subjugation issues these days and sexism being a much more…

Comment/screenname synergy

Rescue Me was by far the worse offender of the 2 as far as writing-your-own-character-as-a-stud goes, but MoaCA was the first similar thing I thought of.

That was the thing about it. Scott's character was supposed to be the stud and Ray's was supposed to be awkward, but I remember thinking that Ray was consistently getting the most attractive women.

It's probably closer to entitlement than confidence.

I wonder if this show has already brought up how Irish Denis Leary's character is? Someone on Twitter recently accused him of not being Irish, which is something I've always wanted to happen and his reaction was almost as funny as I thought it would be.

At first I thought he was making fun of me based on his username?

-Denis Leary style rant about the sensitivity and PCness of people who can't handle people not liking stuff-

It's really secondhand-embarrassing to me when people are in charge of writing their own characters and getting laid a lot by beautiful people just happens to be a major part of their character's story. I felt the same way about Ray Romano in Men of a Certain Age.

sorry, meant to reply to Charles Lupula!

Tomorrowland
A friend wanted to see this and I was not at all interested, but it wasn't bad. Its overall theme was probably what bothered me the most— the scriptwriter's agenda screams off the page, and it's this weird combination of childlike wonder and aggressive self-righteousness. It insists that everyone is too…

Yep, that's the one I'm talking about. I'll eventually watch it and see for myself, but I do find it very questionable for a writer/director to insert himself into a role like that.

Really interesting that you mentioned this. I was curious and looked it up, but the first thing I found was a review complaining about how not only does all the perversion seem voyeuristic and exploitative, but the director himself plays the priest being "seduced" by Lemora after all the objectification she goes…

Time is a flat mess.

The reviewer said this, too… Am I remembering wrong? She thinks Cindy is her aunt, right?

Last Guardian?! -flies to Google-

No, Ramsay is definitely a genuinely frightening character in the books. Changing him into a young, good-looking bad boy followed around by hot henchwomen was one of the stupidest choices they've ever made.

I figured when I heard they got a body double for Lena Headey, it was because Lena Headey was too attractive for the walk of atonement. Instead, nope, they got someone fitter because heaven forbid anyone be naked on this show who doesn't have an ideal physique, even when the whole point of the scene is to be the…

Oops! Ignore this. Dr. Jacoby got there before I did.

My one quibble with your post is that the iRex (I like this term) outsmarted the security system. She clawed up the wall and went camo to make them think she'd escaped, then actually escaped when they opened her pen to investigate. Although those gyrospheres don't seem too safe, even around the veggiesauruses.
