Nightmares are often more memorable than pleasant dreams. 

> It’s easy to not screw up an adaption of something into a film. Its called treating the original source material and designs with respect.

I assume the meaning is that if it’s a wild Bulbasaur, you don’t know its gender. It’s a wild animal. But when you have a known trainer who has her own Psyduck, she can tell you that this specific Psyduck is a male. It’s like when referring to a dog you see being walked, you can say “he” or “she” is very cute but if…

Alternatively, design for realism:

The only article that I want to see on Lifehacker about the lottery is “Life Hack: Save Money by Not Ever Buying Lottery Tickets”

Well that’s... disappointing.

building on the momentum established by Black Panther’s trio of capable female heroes 

This movie really nailed Spider-Man, and the young, just staring out, high school Spider-Man. Peter Parker just wants to do right, and it’s hard work. The “moment” could just as well have been his day-in-the-life scene trying to help out around town, and getting it right maybe only 60% of the time, and his only reward…

Come and Get your Love is by far my favorite song from both movies. I’m undecided on which one I prefer overall though.

People say things that might seem totally innocuous to them but yet totally convince you that they’re utter trash all the time.

Any other movie, the pirate captain would have won back his crew’s respect after the mutiny; Yondu just kills them all. And blows up the ship.

I liked this when it came out...but I didn’t truly appreciate it until I saw the Lindsay Ellis video on it.

That was what saved the movie. The more films I’ve watched, the more I tend to gravitate towards Howard Hawks’ old film saw that a classic film is “three great scenes, no bad ones”. It really does help you separate some of the really great films (Winter Soldier’s elevator fight, bridge fight, discussion scene between…

I was hoping it would have been “Dormammu, I’ve come to bargain...” since it’s a rare finale that shows the hero using his wits and ingenuity to defeat an opponent, rather than their power/strength/skill.

Rickon is lesser Stark.

Both villain plans in BvS and Civil War rely on implausible turn of events that said villains would have no way of foreseeing.

It annoyed me in this episode that the Anti-Pope apparently lives in Rome as opposed to Avignon. That is all I have to say on the subject.

I really dug Shipka’s performance as Mandrake Sabrina. So off-kilter, so creepy.

Marrying and impregnating your daughter does seem very blasphemous. I loved the finger bone crown and thought it was hilarious.

Nothing brings a guy closer to a girl than when the girl kills the dude’s stepmother/pet right in front of him.
