Speaking as a fellow big-nose-haver (who loved this movie), uh...this seems fine.

If it became a chronic blind spot I’d be a bit more concerned, but stepping in it accidentally, apologizing, reaching out to the person affected by it to make sure she’s okay, and then promising to do better and moving on, seems like a…

Editing TheGrayLady would tweet whenever there were changes to the online version of an article, headline, or abstract in the New York Times.

Sometimes this reflected a change in information (updates to ongoing breaking news stories would appear there), or they would reflect a change in spin - and the latter are…

I’m kinda over this one, but I still lament the Phil Lord and Christopher Miller Solo flick we never got.

Perhaps make one good movie first and then we’ll talk, lol

Otherwise this’ll be another one-and-done Dark Universe situation

Perhaps today is a good day to die.

As an American, I have to say, I found big, silly, shitposting nationalism (the genre that this film and the Mel Gibson film The Patriot seem to share) to be a familiar language. I can see why this film resonated with Americans writ large despite our average lack of familiarity with any of the subject matter.

That…

My honest answer is that swearing freely feels like an admission that appeals to decency have always been almost exclusively an instrument of maintaining reactionary power, used by people who will smile through gritted teeth and vote for you to die, and get angry when you call them a selfish, hateful, bastard for…

It will though.

What book are you discussing there?

I typed out several different versions of “the fuck are you talking about”, before realizing you may be mistakenly thinking of the 2021 Neil Burger movie Voyagers, which I liked a bit more than Passengers, but which still fundamentally bungled its premise.

You want the really fucked up sci-fi deep space movie I liked,…

It was a very silly set of characters, but I definitely liked his ensemble turn in Cloud Atlas.

A sci-fi thriller/romance, it centers around a man who wakes up early from hibernation while heading to another planet on a giant colony spaceship. The man—Jim (Chris Pratt)—is desperately lonely and horribly self-obsessed, so he wakes up another passenger, Aurora (Lawrence), and lies to her about their pods…

My goodness

Another “spoiler”.

When I was a kid, we used to just call these “the IMDb cast list”, and to call something a spoiler usually required an event of some kind to occur.

Under the Shadow is a great movie.

I read an interview with him when the Picard episodes aired that he was pretty nervous to return to acting after 20 years, but that there was nobody else he was happier to do it for.

I was quite pleased with the result. Characters making cameos for the sake of it is bothersome to me - I have lots of eyerolling beef…

It pleased me immensely to see Frakes reprise two different versions of the same character, on Picard and Lower Decks respectively. With very different tones, but he did well in both.

This show is super fun. It had to overcome a brief initial feeling of, “Ah, Trek parody. Seen it.” It kinda competed with The Orville in that way for me. Also, oddly, Futurama.

But that passed within a couple episodes for me. Very much became its own thing, which was to both satirize the existing series and also do…

Hear hear.

The amount of plot in the trailer for that film that was never paid off in the movie itself was staggering.

But the casting in both ASM films was outstanding, and I liked the actors. The movies were just ridiculous, incoherent tripe (#2 even more so).

Well that answers that

Nope.

Laughingly = the people calling it a spoiler are laughing or experiencing merriment or expressing derision while doing that = not what I meant, because those people are dead serious that it’s a spoiler, and also crazy.

Laughably = the notion of someone calling a cameo a spoiler is itself laughable, i.e.…
