I can dig it. For me ANH is not a good film. I have a soft spot for it because of the nostalgia factor, and I know it was a bombshell in how it influenced movies (for the worse, IMO). But in terms of actual film quality I tend to side with Alec Guinness. Not quite as strongly, but Lord knows I don’t think it’s a good…

I miscounted. Including Rogue One I think the last five movies sucked.

By making the most awesome Star Wars movie ever! HELLS YEAH!!!

I will say that I have grudgingly more respect for Force Awakens in that I can see that there did have to be the preparation for the fans for the passing of the torch that would happen in Last Jedi, and I believe that Abrams was part of orchestrating that. But it still feels like a tired and uninspired retread and…

Badge of honor.

Idiocracy Now. The Last Jedi was amazing and beautiful and exactly what Star Wars needed. Hell, for the very first time (ok, maybe the second) it was Star Wars to its fullest potential. But we live in an age of SAD people, and so we get these responses.

I just saw Last Jedi, and in addition to being utterly amazed and astounded at how awesome it is, I sat through the Wrinkle in Time trailer. I must have been having a bad day the other time, because this time I was actually really taken in by it. Maybe it was the big screen versus YouTube. Anyway, yet another thing…

Wrong place.

I’m happy for Ava DuVernay’s opportunity here, I’m happy it’s being helmed by an African-American woman and that it’s featuring women of color prominently, and all of the happiness I mention is genuine and unequivocal. I also loved this book as well as a child.

*Hurrrp*

Moonlight is an absolutely stunning film, and Rhodes is incendiary in it. If there was a chance he would play Jean Grey much less Blade I’d say movie producers would be foolish not to jump on it.

Don’t forget just how overly precious it was, something that goes straight back to the source material.

Yeeeaaasss.

There could be lots of things, to be honest. It’s likely great. Not sure why the thought of doing that gag sat wrong with me.

Ah, didn’t realize that. i just re-RTFA and it says it’s him, so I didn’t question that. Thanks. That feels better to me. I retract my apprehension.

I don’t know...I’m generally totally down with irreverence, but Surfer is about as anti-dudebro as you can get. This really feels like a super-struggling-stretch for a cheap gag. Like it would have taken effort to find one that was actually appropriate, but because Surfer has “surfer” in his name the lazy route was…

I take it by “what is going on here?” you were talking about the trailer itself, then?

WhereTF is Comrade Detective on all these lists? Best show of the year. BEST SHOW OF THE YEAR. Well, one of them. And my personal favorite. So well conceived, crafted and executed, so smart, funny and just plain awesome. A socially intelligent riff on ‘80s American propaganda cop movies/shows set as if filmed in early…

I actually watched the trailer that was posted in the article and it CREEPED ME THE FUCK OUT. That was my actual reaction. It’s not for you to mansplain to me what or how intense my reaction ought to be, and so when it comes to either your comment that I should “reel it in” or your clumsy attempt to question my…

You are interpreting my post completely incorrectly. I was expressing no concern with how other people felt about the issue, only how strong my own reaction was. If you look at what I wrote, I never said anything about anyone else’s opinion on this. I was incredulous at the artistic choice of the film. I didn’t expect…
