I always figured that the ghosts in ‘Ghostbusters’ were not literal spirits of the departed, but more psychic manifestations of some of their traits, and that’s why they looked so weird. Guess that’s not the case.

And the thing about fan service is, it does the opposite in the long run. It’s just catering to existing fans, but not creating new ones. I doubt any younger people who didn’t grow up with the Ghostbusters will see this film and think, “Yes, this is the franchise for me!” It will just seem weird and inscrutable, full…

This both depressing and not shocking.  Oh boy can't wait for the sequel that nostalgia baits even harder.

Not shooting people, for one thing.

For the love of white shooters, will you give it a rest? 

This...

“it’s one of only two or three really good scenes in that entire movie” - No, Age of Ultron is jam packed with really good scenes; they just don’t cohere into an overall single story all that well.

Also, god damn it, I hate this website’s layout. The ad makes it impossible to read the content. How does it only seem to get worse with time, y’all? You’re doing a disservice to the writers, editors, readers, and commenters.

I am so happy you mentioned the silo scene. It was also a nice touch that very early in the episode, when Yorick and 355 are packing up the car and talking to each other 355 mentions silos too.

I hope the show gets picked up. It has a lot of flaws but I’d like to see where they go with it. I agree that Hero’s had the worst time with characterization. The dinner scene illustrated the point that Roxanne made about her family’s internalized misogyny, but if also failed to make Hero at all interesting or…

That’s about all the discussion of the Daughters Of The Amazon subplot we need, right?

I’d go with:

You'll take your endless SNL coverage and like it. 

At the time? Yeah, he was huge in the industry. Making a couple movies that rake in billons does that. He didn’t just direct Avengers, he wrote it. He was also exec producer, consultant and did some writing on all the MCU projects from Avengers up until 2016. HBO had just handed him an expensive series that he was…

I’m with you too. I think they’ve done some really interesting things to adapt, update, and improve on the comics. The way they’re handling the Amazons is 1000 times better than the comics.

No I’m with you.  It may have helped that I read the comic when it came out, thanks to my brother buying each issue, but only remember the broad strokes.  Also, I just sorta assumed it was safe for at least two seasons...

I’m kinda bummed out by how much I agree with this. Really gutted it could be gone. 

I feel like I’m in the minority but I’m super bummed this is cancelled. The show overall has made a lot of changes from the comic for the better, and it’s just an overall more intriguing cast of characters (though Hero and Yorrick continue to be the least interesting).

I enjoyed the show, even though I wasn’t fully onboard with some of the choices made. I do hope it gets picked up somewhere. Diane Lane was killing it.
