I don’t know—I think about that a lot, and I can’t think of an apt term, but to call a new band “punk” is just not doing anyone any good.

So I’m gonna make an argument I’ve made a few times before, almost always to rolled eyes. And I get why people roll their eyes at it. But that doesn’t, to my way of thinking, make it any less valid.

I’ve never found myself deeply disliking any of the reviewers. They’re all a little too fond of art house auteur frippery and Dowd can *sometimes* come off as contrarian but I don’t think he genuinely is. As often as I disagree with him I don’t generally feel he’s picking fights.

Oh, I don’t know. What about internet article commenters?

Yeah, no. Sorry but these people shouldn’t be allowed back on the streets in any capacity.

Please. Toy Story 2 is good, but Paddington 2 is better. 

I don’t think it was really worth it prefacing this with “I think”.

The guy that intervened was having exactly none of Karen’s bullshit and good for him.

I fully support throwing the book at these fuckers, flying is unpleasant enough without these stupid assholes lashing out at the people who’s job it is to keep you safe and comfortable while you’re stuffed in a metal tube with a bunch…

If you want fun, eps. in a genre like superhero shows that seems to expressly forbid fun, Legends S2-and-beyond is your ticket. It’s a show where saving a young Barack Obama from Gorilla Grodd (who makes sure to quip “Time to Make America Grodd Again”) is the C-plot in an episode with weirder shit than that.

Someone I know used to religiously watch David Letterman, back in the day. Then there was an evening when he wasn’t going to be able to catch it, so he recorded it.

I would point to the morgue scene as a very big example of why I agree with dirtside. Diffrent strokes and all that, and all due respect to the FX talent, I fucking HATED that scene. Just the most (imo) juvenile, fratboy kind of grossout nonsense. Which is a shame because there was some very effective grim horror in…

Hey you might want to hit the dismiss button on Orrin’s comments. Dude’s a creep who defends James Franco preying on teenagers.

I think the idea that it’s been forgotten is contradicted by the sheer number of people who keep saying it’s been forgotten.

Hopefully Michael Che read the interview, especially the part about receiving criticism.

Dammit Seth, that’s...an extremely reasonable take.

The stage show exists pretty well as its own thing. It covers the content of season 1, but as a one-woman show it really does work. I watched the stage show after watching all of the TV show, and I don’t feel like it sullied the TV show one bit. 

“...step into her mom’s role as a high-profile killer”

There’s a small part of my brain that’s reminding me that Shoot ‘em Up’s trailer looked similarly fun and yet the movie itself wore out its one joke after about 15 minutes and somehow managed to waste the talents of Paul Giamatti, Clive Owen and Monica Bellucci...

Yeah. I trust GRRM a little more than Dumb & Dumber to gauge the right amount of violence against women to be believable for the story (which, historically, is still up for debate). And, to be fair, there is a non-zero number of scenes in the books that make you question whether they need to be there.
