One would think that Michelle Yeoh being in the movie would remind them of that!

Since when is a Bond film an “American production”? This is as close to Pop Culture 101 as an entertainment writer can get.

But there are forehead ridges and bumps yet to be discovered!

“Campy and lighter than other Marvel joints”? The only Marvel joints before 2003's Daredevil were 2 Blades, an X-Men, and a Spider-Man.
As for the Daredevil show’s violence, my wife got in 2 eps and said “I’m done. Too much.” The second season is absolutely brutal.

What’s weird is for most of the past 7 years my comments got approved pretty quick. Usually the next day. But now it’s taking longer and longer.
Although I found a few other pendings from several years ago, too. Ugh.

I would comment on this but I still have 2 pending comments on other articles. One from this past week and one from several weeks ago.
If someone could get this all straight so I could be part of the discussion in real time I’d be very happy.
P.S. And all the AVClub Kinja comment help links are dead.
P.P.S. I just…

General consensus is that you haven’t, you know, reviewed the movie. Two more paragraphs, please. Or no recess.

Don’t forget, Lucas had ILM produce 3 more FX shots after the movie had already premiered on 70mm, but before the 35mm engagements. The shots help clarify the spacial relationship of Lando/Chewie on the Falcon relative to Luke/Leia on the medical frigate. 3 FX shots plus the score had to get adjusted, and it all had…

I plowed though S2 last week. The back half of the season redeemed itself somewhat. At least I wasn’t fast-forwarding though scenes anymore.
S3 so far is really good, and astonishingly grim. Yeesh. Also, wished I known to watch The Defenders before it.

Hang in there, tiger!

Since I don’t watch broadcast TV anymore, the Winter Olympics broadcast reminded me that NBC’s Promo Department are still as shitty as they were in the ‘90's during peak Must See TV. Unrelentingly bad and lazy, where they pummel the viewer with quick cuts of NBC-looking crime/drama/comedy coupled with cliched…

I have a friend who is an music guy. College job in late-80s was Tower Records downtown DC, then moved to Olympia WA to finish school. College DJ there and knee deep in Oly/Portland end of the Pacific NW music scene during the 90's. Did a community radio show into the late-00's. He knows his stuff, from Swing to Freakb…

The runtime is 2hr 55min. I’d hate to think that was after a butchering.

He mentioned the R-rated Joker in the previous sentence’s parenthetical.

One thing that differentiates Wright’s Pride & Prejudice is it’s cinematography. The vast majority of modern Romantic films tend to be shot simply and predictably, with master shots and angle/reverse angles. They are lit flat and framed unimaginatively. Roman Osin’s photography, along with filming almost entirely on…

Yes, but first you have to scratch out Iron Fist and write in After M*A*S*H.

Trust me, this is the only review we need.

Um, how do you not know about Hulu?
Where do you think Disney parks all the dirty, foul-mouthed Fox stuff?

One of my brothers had the “Making of 2001" paperback. As a little kid I thumbed through that a million times.
I was in grade school in the 70's and saw Silent Running on TV. It was one of the films I saw as a youngster that taught me that not all films have happy endings. That sometimes the absolute shittiest outcome…
