I got to see this last night and it was an all-around good movie. I wanted more silliness, but it’s worth it for the Channing cheeks and Brad Pitt’s exit.

IMO Tatum is one of the most underrated actors working today. Even from the start of his career, he’s continually challenged himself with roles that seem outside his wheelhouse and then usually crushes them. I mean, just look at the man’s run from 2014-2016. In chronological order: The Lego Movie, Foxcatcher, 22 Jump

Donald Sutherland is so damn good in this movie. 

I am so sad this column is coming to an end. I love that it’s a serious analysis of a lot of films which often get overlooked or treated with disdain, and there’s been a good mix of classics I’ve seen, underrated gems I want to see, and some really terrible pieces of work. Another one bites the dust...

I love this movie.

I’m amazed I haven’t seen anyone mention that Nick Zano was clearly doing an impression of Mick’s voice.

So, uh, anyone found a satisfying AV Club replacement? Kinda seems like any remnants of what I liked about this site are about to go away.

It’s all about suspension of disbelief. It’s a fantasy story set in a world very like our own. Would it be easier to swallow if there were giant sand worms or lightsabers? Not saying you’re wrong to not like it, but it’s just a matter of being able to accept the world as they present it or not. Because I think if you

Save the city, failed this city... geez, make up your minds comic-book archers.

The look on Hulk’s face after “smash, smash, SMASH” was priceless.  So serious.  Loved the bit, watched it like five times.  Maybe time for #6...

Am I going crazy, or did people want this musical number to be a sincere attempt at musical theatre? It’s supposed to be a cheesy, un-self-aware Broadway showstopper number, designed to make Clint Barton as uncomfortable as possible, and it succeeded on all points. Bravo. (And Adam Pascal was the icing on the cake,

They would live as owls?  NO!  They would be owl food, that’s the implication here.

Even if it wasn’t funny (it was), any excuse to put an Adam Pascal number in your show is a good thing.

Either he didn’t watch it or he’s so bad at a job that involves analyzing television that he already forgot that the owl does fly away with the shrunken van. I honestly wouldn’t put the latter explanation past him.

Yeah, my theater nerd wife thought it was perfect and hilarious.

I don’t think Barsanti watched this episode

After the musical number was over, my first thought was “That was the best part of the entire series!”... and I really enjoyed this series. The number was absolutely wonderful!

The Tracksuits probably could’ve lived a nice life as owls, eating mice and stuff like owls do.

…a completely ridiculous Avengers musical number that Marvel Studios definitely thinks is funnier than it actually is. (It’s not not funny, to be fair.)

I believe this was Dowd’s way of respecting the spoiler embargo but confirming the rumours that Kraven the Hunter will appear played by Dame Judi Dench.
