Using terms like “Democrat establishment” and “Democrat party” is Fox News/Republican doublespeak, which they adopted in order to emphasize their belief that the Democratic Party is not democratic. The party refers to itself as the Democratic Party, and it’s frankly disgusting that you are toeing the Republican line…

Good!

“CBS won’t do anything to Moonves” and “Moonves under investigation by CBS” are both part of this article but I don’t understand how both can be true. I don’t doubt this guy did some (or all) of the shitty stuff he’s accused of but saying “They aren’t doing anything but they are actively looking into the…

I agree with everything you have said here. There is no reason to shit on CBS INVESTIGATING. But. Sam found the way.

Sooo... dumb question. How/why hasn’t anyone produced a buttload of fakes? It’s only paper and color.

I can’t imagine any version of this that works well.

Eh, thats not that great a rationale.  The 80's were when we were at our best, and simultaneously, at our worst?  You can say the same thing about almost any goddamn decade.

It isn’t. I’m sorry. I hate to be the one to tell you, but it turns out that ‘90s kids have no money.

I really don’t like the AV Club didn’t post any examples of the tweets. I mean, I get it; the site and its readers generally like James Gunn, and the site is completely biased against any right-leaning figure and especially the Cernovich types, but still...these tweets are legitimately bad.

Mask of Zorro was awesome! I saw it three times in the theater. It got bonus points for cat sounds layered into the explosion sounds.

Well, thanks for THAT fucking image....

These movies bore the shit out of me. 

Script Supervisor: “Listen, JJ, I just...I dunno if giving Lando the monologue about carrying Ben in his womb for 9 months and feeling the Force living within him, word-for-word, is gonna work when it’s coming out of Billy Dee’s mouth instead of Carrie’s.”

[Later, on set]

BDW: “And not only could I feel him when he was…

And this is premium Barsanti right here. You’d think if your job consisted only of ripping off other people’s work and reposting it that a modicum of reading comprehension would be a basic requirement. At no point in the stuff he links to does Sollima say that it was “his decision” to exclude Blunt, much less does he “…

Thats true and obvious, but Barsanti is going to Barsanti.  

Blunt is a brilliant actress and a welcome addition to pretty much anything but this explanation seems reasonable to me.  How would you include her character without having her either completely abandon any remaining morality or making her the antagonist?  

It makes perfect sense to not bring her back. I mean, no one liked Sicario 2, but her arc was pretty much done. It’s not like she’s going to go “hey, guy who I accidentally helped kill some innocent children, you want to partner up again?”, she doesn’t need to always be there.

This isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

The very first trailer I saw left little doubt that this was going to be a brainless, “look at this cool shot” action movie. The first film was all about moral ambiguities, how far the good guys should be willing to go to get the bad guys. This one looked at subtle as a 12-car pile-up. Though I loved the original so…
