So long as every one of you dumb motherfuckers keeps paying for this shit—bemoaning the quality but never collectively not giving them your money and time—this will keep happening to you and by this point I have zero sympathy.

Why are you still here? Seriously. What red line will actually matter?

Black Widow is the only good Phase 4 movie.

So much of those movies were not Jackson’s fault.

But he could have saved a butload of money and time had he not pushed to film them in 48FPS so that the films look worse in 2023 than the decade-older LOTR films do.

She did her best in two seasons of Star Trek Picard. Not sure what anyone else could have done with what she was given.

What people WANT is another Shadows of Mordor game, but WB fucked us all over there, the twats.

That take is so stupid its breathtaking.

Its one of the very few movies I’d describe as ‘hateful’ that wasn’t, y’kniw, actual hate-speech.

There’s something so nasty about it, so viscerally unpleasant—it harms this small dinousaur kid in ways that feel stentorian and judgemental. Despite the fact that dinosaur boy isn’t really being ‘judged’ for any wrong

Never got the Scott Pilgrim hype but it’s mostly because I find Michael Cera unbearable as an ‘actor,’ and the film never really justifies what makes Ramona worth pursuing because its Knives who gets all the fleshing-out. (I mean if nothing else at least the movie’s awful Scott and cardboard standee Ramona deserve

The thing is I know now I was never good enough. Not even a little bit.

The origin was ‘we sunk so much money into this franchise and it still doesn’t make enough to satisfy our impossible need to have infinite growth so we’re just going to keep making everything Star Wars we can until we either win capitalism or our company collapses.’

That’s it. That’s the origin. No creativity or ounce

And people still, en masse, don’t really want it.

Back in 2020, it finally made the jump to TV with the Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous series for Netflix, whose six-season run ended back in November of last year.”

Streaming television is fucking broken if we’re getting six ‘seasons’ of a TV show in under three years. Shows come and go in the blink of an eye now its

It sounds dumb as fuck every time someone swears in Trek. It’s so childish.

This might sound ironic but it’s not: cursing usually sounds better in real life than in fiction. In fiction it so often comes off as try hard.

That one scene in The Wire not withstanding.

While there’s a lot to laud in the Clone Wars series, it took Lucas’ bad prequel ideas about the Jedi and tripled down on them, so we’re left with these group that policed the galaxy with only 10,000 individuals, all of whom were seemingly fools.

There’s so many valid things to be bullying this asshat over why’d they go with the superficial one?

“Just fine” is SNW in a nutshell really. Some great episodes. Some awful episodes. Terrible dialogue. Good actors. Yet another Trek set with inexplicably too many light sources.

It all works out to ‘fine.’

Clearly you’re not watching Prodigy. It’s the serious animated Trek show you’re looking for.

Because Ibsen made different movies!

Meet me in Saint Louis a great movie with terrible hair.

They wanted Joe Pantoliano originally but he was too old.
