I would watch Christina Hendricks read the phone book. That is all.

I love all three of these actresses but nothing about the commercials or reviews for this made me want to watch it at all. Even commenters here who watched it regularly mostly said it was fine at best and very uneven. Here’s hoping they all get more interesting gigs next time around.
I don’t know, according to the Wachowskis it seems pretty accurate:
“From the very beginning the philosophical arc of the trilogy was conceived—we wanted to do that all in one movie but we couldn’t quite fit it—and it was the idea of this philosophical investigation: what is reality? How do I know, what do I know? And…
You make some smart, salient points, and I can admit that Luca and The Falcon And Winter Soldier are not a perfect comparison, in so far as I relate them in this piece, especially because the simpler fairytale narrative of Luca basically invites diverse allegorical readings, while TFATWS has different aims (not to…
You’re creating a false equivalence between people offended by words that disrupt the conservative status quo, and people critical of words that reinforce the harms of the conservative status quo.
yeah, I don’t care, you can do that. I’m not trying to tell anyone how they, personally, should interpret art/media. In fact, I’m saying the opposite: Art and media can be fulfilling to all of us in different ways, and we’re all allowed to see ourselves represented in characters if we so choose, to feel comforted and…
The amount of ignorance it took to write this comment is commendable. The number of hoops you had to jump through to arrive at this leap on logic is astounding. You are remarkable in the worst way possible.
Absolutely not. You’re talking about people in the real world. I’m talking about characters in a piece of art/media. The point of this piece is to say “if art speaks to you in a certain way, listen to that.” I stated my personal read of the film—just one person’s perspective—to illustrate a point that art is up for…
Just watched Luca, and while I agree that there’s a lot of queer subtext, I’m not sure it’s actually not just text. Luca and Alberto have the most convincing romance in any Pixar film to date. It’s a pre-teen, age-appropriate romance, but it’s exactly the dynamic that you’d get in a G-rated kids movie with an…
I don’t care about any of this, so I’ll just get that out of the way.
Twitch’s bar for banning people appears to be consistent at “Would it cause a young virgin to blow their load?”
Lowest form of entertainment. Aside for the Paul brothers doing their stupid boxing shit.
I picked up on the potential gay subtext, but I didn’t connect that to the two old ladies in town until you mentioned it. That’s pretty brilliant.
I detected a TON of queer subtext in “Luca” — to the point that regardless of what the director says, it almost had to be purposeful. The biggest give-away for me was the (SPOILERS) reveal that the two old women in the town were also sea monsters in disguise. That’s a classic Boston Marriage reference, and something…
Nah the “bad” baron ending is better because the tree spirit saves the orphans from being eaten. I’d much rather have a bunch of orphans live over a compulsively abusive motherf***er who just happens to be easy to sympathise with. I regret not getting that ending :(
*Spoilers* Eh, i thought Baron hanging from the tree was perfect for his abusive ass lol. If that is the bad ending you are referring to.
Riley, my man, this is the second time you’ve blown up an article by revealing a personal detail more fascinating than the article itself (first was the indie game with the river and you said you lived on a boat owned by a monster, I think.)
I rejected the crap out of her. Felt good. Shes kind of a dick
