I was really not prepared for how dark that went and how quickly it escalated out of control. The whole “is this really space or just an illusion?” mob felt like a Twilight Zone beat (in fact, wasn’t that the exact plot of the astronaut episode of TZ last season?). Having Karen show a split second of compassion for…
The opening segment with Maggie and sign language was at least a better Maggie story than that weirdly laughless Simpsons short playing in front of Onward (which I enjoyed a lot - maybe not in Pixar’s top tier but a funny, sweet movie). There were some decent standalone gags (the sound effects CD was very classic…
Almost certainly Galaxy Quest for me.
Gad still has time in his schedule while being TV's most irritating character on Avenue 5?
I can't use the line because it's too much of a spoiler but his delivery of it in You're Next made me laugh so, so hard. Just a perfect encapsulation of whiny entitlement.
The way Samberg played their final scene at the bar with complete sincerity was unexpectedly touching. Jake so rarely drops the quippy, cocky facade that it really works when he does.
Wanting to hook up with Adam Driver? Perfectly understandable. Wanting to hook up with Patricidal Young Space Hitler? No, just no.
That is great and wouldn't be totally out of place in that movie.
I think it was the Blankies episode when they were giving out their award choices?
I think it was David Sims on Blank Check who observed that Craig's real journey in that movie isn't solving the crime (he figures out a lot of it very quickly) but becoming so intrigued by her that crime solving is fun for him again.
I like how much that adaptation really embraced the horror aspects of the book, while the delightful Rene Clair movie plays up the comedy.
There was a lovely moment in a Sarah Jane Adventures episode where she talked about all of the wonderful charitable work former companions had gone on to do. It’s kind of a nice idea that the Doctor inspires her companions to improve the universe however they can.
Someone once described the 70s/early 80s look of Gallifrey as “empty airport terminal” to me and I’ve never heard a better description. It’s basically just a series of long corridors and big, bare spaces.
Matt isn't going to go cannibal first. He's going to cheerfully recommend it, then give them self defeating suggestions on how to be a better cannibal.
This was shockingly boring for an episode that tried to rewrite the entire personal history of The Doctor, fundamentally alter the Cybermen and the Master, and take out Gallifrey for good. There was no real tension. The Doctor basically watched some home movies and had arguments with her friends and her oldest…
Parodying the extremes of spoiler culture is a funny idea but this never quite took off. By the time we got to the virtual reality thing it had pretty much fizzled out.
He's really good in Goat, though the movie itself feels like an extended SVU episode where they forgot to write in Benson.
I think she's very funny and talented but Amy hasn't really worked as a character since she became the store manager and she and Jonah have become dysfunctional as a couple. This may be for the best. They still have a terrific ensemble.
Such a good movie. Makes an interesting pairing with the first Rocky and Creed - sports movies that take their central romantic relationships very seriously, too, though this is a way sexier movie than either.
