An excellent final review. Thanks for all of them. This is depressing.

“Look- I’m a grown, drunk man and I want a churro to eat on the choo-choo ride home. That had me in stitches. Long live Dismukes.

Best of luck with everything. Whether I agreed or disagreed with you I always looked forward to reading your reviews. I think there was one time, 5 or 6 years ago, when I mostly came here to just complain about Trump coverage on SNL and was a bit curt toward your review that you replied to one of my posts, which I

Take care, Dennis. Haven’t always agreed with you, but always read you! Won’t be the same around here. Thanks.

So sorry to see all of this great analysis and appreciation come to an end. The long discussions of tropes and styles and how they sometimes combined successfully and sometimes didn’t was always interesting. And I thought the discussions of how these movies addressed, or ignored, real life issues was a model for how

ACKTUALLY Mimic Chests go all the way back to 1974, coming from (surprise) Gary Gygax

Seriously feel you helped me stop being such a movie snob and understand the merits of the Rom-Com, and how the different eras play into our ideas of love and relationships. Just because something is light doesn’t mean it can’t shape us in some way. and the performances by these women, even if the movie doesn’t set

Thank you for this series. I haven’t seen (or heard of, in some cases) every movie you wrote about, but I have read every article, and they all made me want to see the movie. I won’t go on about how this series ending feels like the end of an era (though it does), or how this was maybe the last remaining regular

We asked you, the readers,

some of the peope in this comment section either don’t know what spoilers are or don’t know how to avoid them.

I mean, nothing will help, but I don’t see how histrionics really hurt at this point. A bunch of talented writers, comprising what remained of the site’s heart and soul, were all unceremoniously laid off—excuse me, “voluntarily” resigned after being instructed to move to L.A. within a couple of months without being

Hey folks. I just wanted to drop in and say thank you to everyone here for all the kind words, and also for reading what I’ve written at The A.V. Club these past nine years. I know I wasn’t always the most consistent presence in the comments, even before the Kinja transition, but I dipped in fairly regularly, and for

Because of Dowd, Vishnevetsky, and sometimes jesse, film coverage–specifically reviews–were pretty much the only thing that kept alive the old open-minded-but-critical spirit of AV Club. Depressing to see it go away entirely.

I will say, while I appreciate any lack of histrionics over the Future of the A.V. Club As We Know It!! (and imagine it has served the old-new guard well, ha), I would point out that past incidences of major exodus were either because a bunch of writers left together to start The Dissolve, or a few instances where

I’d rather have a C+ Dowd review of a movie I liked then the crap this site seems to be moving towards. Slides shows and lazy videos about the five best sitcom themes ever that somehow doesn’t mention a sitcom made before 2000.

at least in the days before Kinja decimated the site’s robust commenting culture

A+ A+ Dowd. You’ll be missed.

HAHA Extensive VFX shoots for La Brea? They must be taking it up a few notches cause S1 looked like they were completed by a Gaffer, on set, on a Gameboy, on his lunch break.

Of course Discovery would pick up on one of the dumbest, most pointless Voyager episodes.

Cena’s referring to rumors that Peacemaker spread about Flash and Wonder Woman earlier in the season. In one conversation he claims WW was “eye-fucking him” at some event.
