Coulter looks like she has the face and soul of a sallowed wax figurine at Louis Tussaud’s. Cobie Smulders looks fantastic every minute. It’ll be an interesting transformation.

Y’know, I think they could have gotten away with only one lavalier- the Dan on the left didn’t really say much that justifies a mic.

I found that with a lot of comedy- The Daily Show with John Stewart didn’t quite hit as hard 15 years in, after a couple seasons of Real Time with Bill Maher I realized I have a modicum more political awareness than Maher (and a shitfuck more compassion for Muslim folk), and I really can’t stand the saccharine…

I think the Monty Python troupe had said something of the sort on why they can’t do satire forever- once you become reasonably successful, you become what was the brunt of the joke the whole time.

I do think Tarantino is talented, but I’m totally with you. Tarantino has great films and his place in history, but the sheer volume from the Coen Brothers, as well as the how memorable nearly every one is, they’re easy finalists for the best filmmakers of their generation. They made The Hudsucker Proxy, christdammit!

Also maybe Celebrimbor, who’s familiar to the video game nerds that played Shadow of Mordor.

He started out as a “I’m a centrist doing gonzo journalism coverage of Occupy Wall Street”, but jumped on the alt-right IDW grift, and has traded the “both sides”-ism for backing rigged election conspiracies and reporting on the “eViLs of BLM and Antifa”. He’s a sad, amoral grifter.

It unfortunately doesn’t, that is a pretty fun theory.

It’s such a weird swerve, and it only makes me feel more sad for Clyne, she is truly ill.

FWIW, I think it’s greatly respectable of you to feel conscious enough to justify withdrawing from welfare. I think it’s a good indicator that this social norm of treating welfare as if it’s meritocratic should go away- you are doing what’s best for your health, the system should be there for you and any person that…

Yeah, Tolkein’s works are the only ones that really have that deference- you don’t get that with Eddings, Zimmer Bradley, or Brooks. It’s gotta be that combination of the community involved with the fandom paired with the age and impact of TLOTR (plus Zimmer Bradley was a horrific fucking monster in her personal life).

I never understand this sentiment- do you genuinely have curiosity, or need affirmation that there’s others that, like you, don’t want it? “Is this something we want?” should just always be answered with “sure, because it always has a chance to be good.”

lol, you realize this article specifically is about other people insulting Patel’s appearance? It doesn’t really fit into this weird niche of yours.

I’m out of the greys on some sites, but not others, and the whole ungreying process still eludes me. I didn’t care as much for the longest time, but with the way Kinja is acting weird nowadays, I comment a lot less on the other sites because most greys just get lost now that Kinja just disappears them.

Yeah, we have to hit around 85% of the population fully vaccinated to have a great effect against Covid transmissions, and we haven’t any idea what we should be doing with kids going to school with no restrictions in effect.

When you can attend public events like this without undue risk is a different story- vaccine rollout sucks ass in a lot of places still, and even if you were to eventually get over your hesitancy and have 1-2 doses very recently, the degree of the delta strain transmission in a lot of denser places makes for a good…

That is a fair sentiment, and if that was what was being said I’d have jack shit to say- a lot of the responses I’ve got have been that “a trailer shows EXACTLY what a movie should be” and that “Jason Reitman is not capable of making my expected follow-up to Ivan Reitman’s work!”, both of which are delusional…

No. Trailers don’t have genre. They’re advertisements for films. Films have genre. Marketing material is cut to portray a certain thing, and that certain thing isn’t necessarily the whole breadth of the film. In this trailer, less than 3min, there is very little dialogue- do you think that is to scale or something?…

You seem to have a big issue with people reacting to the actual content of the trailer.

lol, that is a truly half-witted point of contention.
