Hopefully it was a mistake in writing “reckon with”.

I remember reading over a year ago a twitter thread from Michael Rianda, the director of Mitchells Vs. The Machines, talking about what he learned in the process of directing. One of them was that Lord and Miller taught him that it is much better to make a version of whatever joke/plot idea you have than to leave it…

For the most part, I actually like this. More movies in theaters is good in my eyes - there have been a lot of movies released on streaming that I feel would have been a good theater experience, so that means that they are more likely to end up in a theater near me.

Probably because they wanted someone who at least knows how to act

I mean, I think it’s funny because it’s funny. But I may be in the minority.

I believe that they did a similar gag last season (though I think they showed a single random line, rather than a silent shot like this season), but before that they did normal teasers.

I am very excited for this movie. The trailer had me worried that it might be Anderson’s most shallow movie yet, but most reviews seem to have found it good on that front. Definitely looking forward to watching it.

Not to be a pedantic shithead, but there are only around 7 million people watching succession, and 2.3 million watching it when it airs. Most of them are probably American, but there are definitely a good amount of non-US listeners. Also, I’m not sure that Succession even has a large right-wing fanbase? HBO isn’t…

I had assumed that by “prolific” they just meant “there’s a lot of directing in this episode”. Which doesn’t make too much sense, but makes more sense than anything else I could think of.

If you actually think that the theme of this show is “everything that’s happening here is good and you should support it”, then maybe right wingers aren’t the only ones with a severe lack of media literacy. Quick tip - when the theme song plays, only slower and sadder, it means that what is happening on screen is…

I’m assuming that you are trying to say the show appeals to the right wing. I mean, maybe. But I’m not entirely sure that can be treated as a criticism to a show nowadays. Harvey Weinstein was a fan of Bojack Horseman. Trumpers relate to Homelander. Are we going to say that Bojack is actively trying to pander to…

Reread what I wrote, dumbass. Of course she sucks, too. She is also, out of the three siblings that are the main characters (and, honestly, maybe even including conner), the morally best character. While she still is a selfish piece of shit for not making the phone call to Nate, she is also the only who is opposing…

That’s the whole point. You’re totally allowed to dislike it (it’s not for everyone), but the tone seems to work for a lot of people. There’s a lot of appeal in how caustic it is. I also wouldn’t say that the characters are unsympathetic. They are totally terrible people, as illustrated by this most recent episode.…

then don’t watch it

It’s interesting how the show has always made a point to avoid glamorizing violence. I think a lot of the action scenes are ‘cool’ from the standpoint of the choreography, but never really within the context of the show itself. This episode had no action, but it still felt like it was doing what you’re saying, showcasi…

Barry is predicting a retro comeback for Youtube, gloriously recreating their early days.

He’s definitely being home schooled, when Sally as calling Barry he talked about his plans for teaching him (if I recall, he wanted to get into long division). The problem is he definitely isn’t being home schooled well. Ever since hearing Bill Hader say on one of the Ringer podcasts that Barry is just a really dumb…

That’s a good point, but I personally think Sally chooses to wear the wig. Like she’s trying to recapture the life that she feels she was robbed of.

I’m not this website’s biggest fan, but the reviewer was clearly making a joke about the dog. Blatantly, painfully obviously making a joke.

I also think it’s worth noting that there are other writers on the show. Hader isn’t the only person making creative decisions, he’s working with other people who also contribute to the tone and mentality.
