I feel like this whole season has been a massive decline in quality. Not only is the show really feeling books 4 and 5's general listlessness, but it's also, strangely, moving way too fast. So some major shit is happening, but with next to no set up. It really feels like the show runners just want to be done with…

Well, in their defense, Theon did betray her. By the episode's end it seemed like Sansa was actively beginning to plot her own way out (she did surreptitiously grab that sharp object looking thing, whatever it was). Although, if the show writers have Brienne ride in on a horse and save Sansa, or Theon come around…

Regarding Gilly immediately wanting to have sex right after almost being violently raped, I'd probably be more likely to buy McNutt's argument that this is a comment on how "sex and violence are closely linked in her world" if the show writers didn't repeatedly use rape as a cheap narrative device for moving from…

See I thought this was a legitimately awful, shark jumping, type episode for me. The Sam/Gilly scene was just dumb, especially since the writers once again went back to the deep well of rape which they use to motivate all action.

No. Their name is fucking stupid and they deserve to be boycotted entirely based on it, regardless of how good they may be.

Ha ha. Food that poor people eat is gross!

They are somehow billionaires, but I don't know anything that they actually sell.

The problem I have showing it to people is that its first 20 minutes are basically just straight homage to 80s summer camp movies, and thus, not very funny. It isn't until the gang goes to town that the tone shifts to over the top parody and things get funny.

His musical booker person had great taste. Letterman was the late night debut for lots of off the beaten path and indie stuff.

OK, I guess it was a Vice short documentary. It's on youtube if anyone is interested:

His death trilogy (Gerry, Elephant, Last Days) were all pretty good and culminated in the also very good "Paranoid Park." "Milk" was also great, a perfect example of how to do a soulless, awards bait, biopic, in a way that was interesting and not soulless at all.

He works at a break neck pace, but up to the late 90s he didn't really have an outright bad film in the bunch. Which is kind of a magnificent feat, given how many films he made. Being that good with that many films for that long was probably only ever surpassed by the Cohen brothers. But they are 2 people, which is…

It's disappointing, mostly just because ever since I saw a documentary about a park ranger that works there a while back I've always thought someone should make a fictional movie set at Japan's suicide forest. That documentary was haunting, to the point that I often think about it. I guess this isn't that movie,…

I saw the movie and I still don't know what he is. Like, he's Jarvis given biological form, I guess, but he's also part robot, or something, too. Plus, he has an infinity stone in his head, which judging from the fact that infinity stones are super hyped up, it seems would make him godly powerful. But everyone just…

It might mess up the pacing, but I think it deprives the film of important background information on the nature of the rebellion. The rebellion in the final cut of Star Wars comes off as weirdly apolitical and you never really get the sense of whether it's something that the common people were behind, or if it's…

I loathed him in DwD, not because he was evil, but because he was a tedious character. As a villain, he's super over the top, and not in an especially creative way. It was just GRRM repeatedly saying, "what's the absolute worst thing I could have Ramsey do?" and then executing it all with a sledgehammer, over and…

Might seem odd to suggest, given that the last 3 seasons have been nothing but Ramsey torturing, but he seems slightly more nuanced this season, compared to previous seasons and the book. I actually got the sense that, in his own twisted mind, he thought he was doing something nice for Sansa when he made Theon…

I never listened to any of her post JLP albums, but liked the singles. Uninvited, Hands Clean, and I even totally, unironically, love Thank You.

Mohd's biggest asset is that he monitors this website 24 hours a day. Like 75% of all articles published in the past 2 years seem to have Mohd as their first comment. I have no idea how he does it.

I watched a Korean stream of it, but got bored half way through, did other stuff, then came back for the disappointment anti-climax. It really was as bad as the parody. There was more running around the ring and bouncing off ropes than professional wrestling.
