Eh. The character was an emotionless robot, there wasn’t much for anyone to do in that role. She gave it the most zing that could be expected from the “hey, that’s Janelle Monae!” factor.  

I think that partly depends on whether you take the worst of his far right characteristics—anti-gay, misogynistic, general toxic masculinity—as things he would act on if he had the power and resources or if they’re shitty things he believes but doesn’t actually want to force on society.

And it wasn’t even that Ozy was a better fighter. The whole point was that The Comedian was so broken by what he’d witnessed that he just laid down and died. Going back to where Veidt could find him was an act of suicide, and he knew it.

Hammer kind of did that in Sorry To Bother You, and yeah, it worked.

That cartoon is one of the best things I ever seen.

Making him mad fit was a huge mistake, agreed. I think that was Snyder’s missing the point yet again, this physical manifestation of how much of a total geek Dreiberg really was, no matter what he did as Nite Owl. Snyder just couldn’t do superheroes as less than amazing, when the whole point of Watchmen was their…

I actually liked Luhrman’s Gatsby. He was overly obvious here and there for sure, but the party sequences called for exactly his brand of spectacle (check out the 1970s version, you’ve never seen such a dull shindig in your life), Toby McGuire was a great choice to play the naif (I love Sam Waterson, but the dude’s…

The super powered fights between non-super powered combatants was yet another thing Snyder got wrong.

And now I will forever imagine all studio execs speaking in Mr. Peanutbutter’s voice.

But it’s worth it!

On regular TV, two months would give a show about eight episodes or so, which means this would sort of be like canceling a show halfway through its first—

NO THEY’RE NOT GONNA FUCKING DO STONEHENGE!

Anyone else think thin-skinned 45's gonna try to deport Neil?

Soapdish, a movie that I love—hilarious, clever, great performances—has a nasty little transphobic moment. Minorities, by definition, don’t have the numbers to make everyone treat them well or even know basic facts about them. This translates to powerlessness in the electoral realm as well—witness the long climb of…

I never had to before, but the early voting lines were ridiculous all week here in my part of TX.  Which is awesome.

Who should direct?  Yorgos Lanthimos is the name that jumped immediately to mind for me.

Also Bad Company.

Holy shit, how did I never know about that before.

And yes, as someone who loves ‘70s hard rock/protometal, River Bottom Band are much better than a lot of real acts.

“50 dollars?!”
“Yeah, but it’s all in merchandise.
“Oh.”
“Hamburgers."

Pretty sure this is the best review the AVC’s ever given to a Tyler Perry movie.
