“Son, there’s no wrong way to consume fried chicken.”

If you ask a Torontonian, they’ll entirely conflate “Toronto” and “Canada” anyhow.

I mean, it’s not un-cartoon-like.

Is there more Canadian fan-service in this movie than in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World?  I feel like that was the previous champion.

Is that an “eating orlotans” scene in the trailer? It seems like “orlotans” are becoming a shorthand for “crazy white folks”, what with this and “Succession” and “Billions”.

This reboot is going to disappear and reappear mysteriously years later? Are we sure it’s not about Babylon 4?

Nitpick: Solid Sound isn’t annual, it’s biennial. (Or at least it was pre-COVID; they skipped 2021.) It says so right in title of the documentary about the festival, “Every Other Summer”.

“Enduring Love” (2004).  I’ve not seen it, but it’s based on an Ian McEwan novel which probably tells you something about the type of story it is.

Hey, at least it wasn’t as cruel as that “cake busts” BS they threw at the contestants in Week 1 last year.
