Just Universe of Energy, the "animatronic dinosaurs and Ellen teach us fossil fuels are our friends" ride. 

Joe Dante and the late Dick Miller.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. It’s a solid little horror movie. Nicely shot, likable cast, a couple of memorable sequences (that first scarecrow sequence was a little more intense than I was expecting, actually). The sequel set-up in the last scene is irritating.

Complain about the lazy writing (no worse than the last several seasons) but wow the animation is surprisingly ugly. I feel like he says "oh, the Democratic candidates" because they would otherwise be unrecognizable. 

But the big twist was at least a century old, with both director and writer admitting to the influence of "An Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge." I like the original movie a lot but let's not pretend that element was blazingly original. 

“The kid from Queens? He was a robot. Battery died. Now, moving on, watch me wave my hands magically."

You do remember that about 70% of Emperor's New Groove features a llama as a main character? Because I don't want photorealistic llama 

That's a bit of a shame, since the second season was considerably more fun and they seemed to finally figure out stakes beyond "because Superman." Though their take on Adam Strange was odd. 

Culkin was an amazing child actor. Given that Lucas sucked the charisma out of effortlessly charismatic actors like Neeson and Jackson, I'm not sure any child actor stood a chance. 

I thought he was delightfully odd on the just-OK Miracle Workers. Daniel Radcliffe developing into a quirky character actor is not something I expected but it seems promising. 

Have you seen Jurassic Park? That man takes terrible precautions with exotic animals. 

Not to mention incessant, droning music. 

Agreed that social workers do a hard job and often get made into baddies. Trying to think of positive portrayals. Tyne Daly in Judging Amy? Lilo and Stitch, where it's made clear that he genuinely cares about both sisters? Shazam? 

Reading her novel Jazz when I was a teenager opened my eyes to how fiction that was experimental in format and style could still be deeply compassionate. I have a feeling "compassionate" is a word a lot of her readers will use today. 

That sucks but, as with Sense8, it's hard to imagine a show this gloriously weird ever surviving for long. 

“Can I bring my sexy mumbly weirdness to this role? Cartoon fox into masks? No problem."

I loved his guest shot on Galavant, where he got to show both his playful and more intimidating sides.

I would say Scrooge McDuck for the tax breaks but I doubt he’d appreciate the immigration rhetoric.

I expected Rockwell and Williams to get nominated for Fosse/Verdon. I was delightfully surprised to see Margaret Qualley, who was quietly great as Ann Reinking. 

Actress in a Limited Series is a great group. I would go with Williams but they're all solid choices.
