I watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s for the first time last week on... Prime? Netflix? One of the two - now there’s a movie that needs a content warning. “Mickey Rooney’s performance in this film is appalling racist to the point where even the director has apologized.”

“Better us than anyone else.”

As someone who isn’t one of ‘you,’ but has had to watch as ‘you’ have shat your way across the planet for decades in the deeply misguided belief of ‘better us than anyone else’, leaving nothing but buffoonish, incompetent chaos and quagmires in your wake, let me sum up America’s global…

Here’s a quick recap: Everyone is miserable, any character with an ounce of morality is either dead or has had it burned out of them via trauma, and none of the claimants to the throne are worthy of it, so the ending is guaranteed to disappoint.

Ugh. I just have to accept the fact that all the actors who voiced the Muppets that I grew up with are gone and retired and I just... have to live with this weird simulacrums that look like the Muppets I know and love but don’t remotely sound like them. 

I’ve found all the Avatar comics pretty universally awful. The reveal that ‘what happened to Zuko’s mom’ was ‘she just left and is fine’ is sort of a case study in how not to conclude a long-running story arc.

The problem with your argument is that Seth McFarlane - to my complete disgust - has proven he’s much better at making Star Trek over the last few years than the people nominally making Star Trek.

The issue with Lower Decks is that it looks buffoonish and continuing the trend of the last decade plus to make Star Trek…

Coleman Francis’ filmography would beg to differ.

By the time I was using computers in the 90s, floppies were all solid, and 3.5" - I remember in the early 2000s seeing one of the massive 8-inch floppies and not knowing how they could possibly be used.

I also remember zip discs, which were posed to take off before their wings were clipped by USB sticks.

They don’t call them “stiffies” because that’s slang for an erect phallus.

STAMOS!

“being produced by the creators behind HBO’s Westworld.”

I’ve felt for a long time that what the Fallout series lacked was endless series of sexual assaults trumpeting its status as a mature adult story for serious grow-ups who like Mature Shows That Are Just So Smart And Grow-Up. I’m so glad Amazon is stepping in to…

Like a parched man in the desert I crawl towards what might be an oasis, but might yet be a mere mirage. There have been so many mirages low these many years - mirages of a Trek show that isn’t swaggering, hyper-violent nonsense, a Trek series with some sense of wonder or reverence for space and an attitude towards a…

Oh good, I’m not the only one completely baffled by this article.

Shadow of Mordor is one of those games where fantastic mechanics are dragged down by shockingly boring story, totally forgettable characters, and sublimely ugly environments. It’s fun to play until you’ve maxed out the skill tree (which, is really easily to do relatively early in the game), in which case you’re left…

God what a devotedly tedious asshole you must be to be making this kind of comment in 2020.

God, I was so baffled by the header pic until I remember they gave Shape of Water Oscars.

Then I was just depressed.

Then I remember the Oscars are arbitrary and culturally we’ve sort of stopped caring about them anyways so, y’know, what of it? Shape of Water wasn’t a best, or even a good film - but neither was Green…

Te answer to “is something mediocre better than nothing at all” is ‘no.’ For proof I point to The Incredibles 1, a film that is in no sense bad, but is so soul-crushingkt generic, a film with no theme, no character arcs, no reason to exist other than a sense of obligation that it is somehow far worse a movie becuase…

I saw this movie on a plane, and the best-and-worst thing I could say about it was ‘It exists.’ It is a completely competent film that never once justifies its existence.

To be fair you could cut literally any shot out of Rise of Skywalker and it would still be as coherent a picture.

“The animated series Star Wars Resistance revealed in its second season that two supporting alien characters, Orka and Flix (voiced by Bobby Moynihan and Jim Rash), were a couple.”

But since the only people on earth who watched Star Wars Resistance after the second episode were beleaguered io9 reviewers fulfilling some…
