I don't get it. These shows don't even have aliens or anything.

“I am a big believer of giving series that have had a long run an appropriate send-off.”
These days we’ve become accustomed to chaotic action. Quick cuts, explosions, cameras flying around, basically non-stop mayhem. Jurassic Park isn’t that. At every moment, in every scene, you know exactly where each character is. Spielberg’s blocking and editing is so clean that if you paused, say, the first T-Rex…
Even as a Jurassic Park expert, I don’t have much to add, I agree with everything. Well, ok, I guess I can gush about a gew more aspect:
Because they nailed the line between practical effects and CG. It’s why the movie still looks so good today, instead of being full CG that hasn’t aged well.
But other countries ARE struggling with extremism and far-right authoritarians. If we could magically make guns disappear, we should because that would save a lot of lives, but we’d still have a really bad white supremacist problem that we need to deal with.
Probably because Geena Davis has looked exactly the same for 30+ years.
I still have my Geena Davis in Commander in Chief lunchbox.
What a great day it will be when I never have to hear this creature’s name or see its face ever again.
It’s been a while since I’ve watched the original, but I seem to remember Billy (the Native American member of the team) talking about how his people told stories of a monster that hunted them or something like that. I wonder if this is supposed to reference that idea.
Commander in Chief aired almost TWENTY YEARS AGO??? I could have sworn this was a show that aired in the last 5 years or so.
Well, seeing as people traditionally watched TV for free (though basic cable admittedly muddied those waters), the sponsors were indeed the actual customers.
Pat and Ian have been so spot on with stuff. I hope Ethan does a new article on the Intellivision Amico, Tommy Tallarico, & the rest of the executive team to plainly state this was a scam. The amount of vitriol and libel lobbied at Pat and Ian from Amico zealots and more eye-opening from the actual CEO/the so-called…
“.... Do you even comics, Bro? "
Meh. I actually forgot this was even a thing. It was... fine, but a bit of a slog to get through, honestly.
What about the premise that a recently widowed woman moves to a rural country home and discovers that the entire town is Rory Kinnear?
I mean, AVClub used to be aimed at a certain type of person that self selected here. That chose to work here. The site, due to consistent editorial standards and work, had a voice. Yes, not every author agreed on everything, but in general, there was a voice and opinion of the site. It’s what made this site different…
I tried to find an A.A. Dowd review for TGM but had no luck. I feel like I could rely on him to slap a dismissive C+ on this one.
I can’t keep track. Do we actually believe AVClub reviews anymore? Is this movie actually good? Does any staff here actually get what the community enjoyed anymore?
So he was basically a live-action Mike the TV from Reboot?
