Yeah, that or maybe they’re doing what the first trailer for every fucking other big franchise movie does ever: concentrating on the known factors.

Jesus, a new trailer comes out and everyone smashes themselves in the temple with a ball-peen hammer so that they can appear as fucking stupid as possible.

“He was dating MEW for a hot min so after Fargo”

And is continuing said “hot min” several years later. 

“How did they trick Ewan McGregor in to doing this?”

By giving him the entire script of the movie, rather than telling him to make up his mind based on two pages of a trailer script. 

I bet you think you brought some sort of insight to the conversation.

Yeah, let’s ignore how popular they were and pretend nobody every enjoyed one of them.

Yeah, imagine a comedy writer concentrating on writing comedy rather than concentrating on not offending people who display a complete lack of a sense of humour.

“Nobody’s offended by Phillip’s remarks about “SJWs ruining comedy””

Despite ALL evidence pointing that way...

“The issue is not whether something is offensive”

Yes it is, because offense is EXACTLY AS SUBJECTIVE AS HUMOR.

Exactly. Everyone knows that comedy comes from being nice.

“like Inside or Martyrs—it is at turns very uncomfortable and somewhat unnerving, occasionally punctuated by much-appreciated moments of dark comedic relief.”

Why compare the interview to movies that you clearly haven’t seen?

“I still think there’s not enough character there to support her own story”

I guess it was stupid of them to make this a solo movie then, rather than surrounding her with a bunch of other characters, eh? 

“Like all Bay movies, this one’s probably best appreciated on the big screen.”

Counterpoint: like all Bay movies, this one’s probably best appreciated if you don’t have to pay for a ticket.

No, dude got paid for poorly executing Jerry Seinfeld’s idea that he got from watching The Trip.

“Or he felt he deserved more from the start but was afraid to take on a very wealthy beloved star and be labelled as “difficult” in the industry while spending thousands on lawyer fees.”

Yeah, if only he had a hundred thousand or so dollars that he could’ve spent on a lawyer, huh? 

*sigh*

“Did not know about the test-marketing in Canada angle”

That’s because this is pretty much the first time it’s happened. 

“Somebody thought it’d be a good idea to sell scented scissors to children”

“For the casual viewer? Absolutely.”

Why? The casual viewer doesn’t give a damn about continuity. 

Good gravy, I hope the hell not.

“And the Vulture is probably thee most fun recurring non-main character in B99 who isn’t named ‘Doug Judy’”

Craig-Robinson-as-himself-yet-again doesn’t hold a CANDLE to the Vulture. Bill is also much, much better than Doug Judy. So is Commissioner John Kelly. And Wuntch. And Adrian Pimento. Whoops, can’t forget about…
