“Hey, you know that popular thing everyone likes? Well check this, I don’t.”
Fucking x-treme to the maxxx.

If she means July 11th that makes more sense. That’t the day the Japanese began rowing their canoes across the ocean to attack Pearl Harbor with katanas. They’re a samurai culture, you know.

Hoffman and Weinstein are being treated differently. Weinstein lost his job, his prestige, got kicked out of the Academy, is facing criminal investigations and is being sued. Hoffman got called out for his actions and shitty attitude by a comedy show host.

She’s so neat you don’t even know her name.

Mental illness can do that to even the savviest of us, I’d love to hear a psychologists take on the show because for me personally its depiction of depression, anxiety and the idea of not being in control of your own mind because of it has felt like the most honest and realistic portrayal of the kind of things I’ve…

While it did get a bit overindulgent at times with it’s runtimes, I feel like Season 2 told exactly the story that it needed to. Season 1 & 3's more straightforward narratives make sense given the fact that there’s a very clear and present danger at the center of them. Season 2 on the other hand was the fallout season…

I need to reread Slaughterhouse, I remember it as my least favorite of his works. But I’d guess that’s because it was also one of the first I’d read (I think I read Cat’s Cradle before). And I think a lot of my problems were just not getting on his wavelength.

You’ll need to squeeze it in after those appropriate times to discuss gun control. These two subjects are just a bear to get on the calendar.

Was anyone else kind of hoping (prior to the big reveal) that Rosa’s new squeeze was Derek Hofstetler, P.I.?

The entire incident was belligerent, rude, and entirely unwelcome in its context

Nope. Oliver brought up harassment allegations against Hoffman while they were discussing a movie centered around harassment allegations. It’s literally the perfect time to ask Hoffman about them.

Agreed! I love love LOVE Edgar Wright’s films, but he really needs to work on his female characters. The women of “Baby Driver” were the worst of his films so far - very little personality or character development. Liz from “Shaun” and Sam from “World’s End” weren’t terrible, but could have been improved with more…

Pay people a fair market wage for working in the service industry? What country do you think you’re in, they should be gone into MY field if they wanted to be paid fairly. Maybe don’t get a major in Basket Weaving next time, lazy libs!

/coughs up blood

Continues Wright’s female characters being rather lacking as well. Debora was not deep. (Still irked at the Ramona mind-control thing, too.)

I would like to get back on the saddle very shortly, because—slightly beyond my control—but there was four years between The World’s End and Baby Driver. I don’t want it to be that long again. I would love to have a film out in the next two years.

Can he make Baby into something other than DEFAULT PROTAGONIST? As someone who didn’t find the romance convincing in the slightest or Baby interesting outside of his driving, I don’t really plan on seeing the sequel. The action, the soundtrack, the editing were all great (and to be expected from Edgar Wright), but god…

To reinforce what you said in the last paragraph, my 4 year old son knows how to go down pipes because of those tips. Saves me from having this conversation a thousand times a day.
