As someone who grew up watching and re-watching Raiders of the Lost Ark, it’s funny to revisit it after many years and realize that it’s essentially a buster keaton film with nazis.

through 2 seasons, Kang is bored by Bojack.  But I’ve watched each season of GLOW at least twice.  Kang fucking loves those ladies.  The tone, the period, the humor, the acting, the heart... it’s a goddamned delight

THIS. GoT used to be ‘The Wire with Magic’. Now it’s just Shut The Fuck Up Here’s Some Dragons. Still entertaining, because well, Dragons. But it definitely feels like it’s being written from an outline more than an actual script at this point.

You’re entirely right, Kang misread! Didn’t realize that you were criticizing the Starlord/Gamora focus more than you were complaining about lack of setup for Nebula/Gamora’s relationship.

Pretty sure that if you have a device that controls Space, Time, The Soul, The Mind, Reality, and, uh, ‘Power’.... you can probably set the filters to just eliminating 50% of SENTIENT life.

Counterpoint:  The Nebula/Gamora backstory was the thing that worked best in all of GoTG Vol. 2 and it’s awesome that Nebula is being given such a juicy part to play in Endgame.

Your wife is clearly into complex foreheads

Welp, this was pretty good!

The Marvel Netflixverse was extremely meh. Like the MCU, they mostly cast the leads to perfection (with one obvious exception). Bu the only season between all 4 Defenders shows that Kang would argue is consistently good is Jessica Jones Season 1. Haven’t seen Punisher, not sure if I’m really interested to at this…

‘Everything is different since Kang took over.’

The problem with ‘Returns’ is that Superman himself is not relatable at all. He abandons his elderly mother and his significant other for 5 full years, without warning or any contact at all. What kind of a jerk does that?

Marsden is far and away the most charismatic and likable character in Superman Returns. Which would be fine, except for the fact that it’s supposed to be a fucking SUPERMAN MOVIE.

Yeah, it’s funny— Kang actually had made up his mind that Bill Maher was THE WORST because he had only heard about his questionable guests and dumber comments over the past few years. Then I actually sat down and watched ‘Real Time’ and... liked it. The interviews are good, the monologues are better than most talk…

Kang would say that clickbait articles like this one, that manufacture reasons for a bunch of otherwise nice people to immolate each other on the internet over fucking minutiae— have a lot more to do with how Trump got elected.

After recently finally reading Moby Dick, Kang was struck at how funny it was, and how much humor it wrings out of salty provincial Nantucket language tics... and of course it begs for some awesome Roger Deakins cinematography. The Coens would be perfect for it.

Yeah, what’s with the lack of love for Miller’s Crossing here? One of their best!

Yeah, that moment was so tonally fucking off. But the movie had already lost me by that point... specifically, at the moment Rorschach jumps out the window during the SWAT team raid and immediately starts going all AWESOME WIRE-FU on the cops. Kang literally threw up his hands and groaned ‘GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK’…

Yes! While there are waaaaaay too many bros like Snyder who mistake Rorschach for ‘cool’— he’s not, he’s deranged— His story is presented with a lot of empathy. His transformation into a murderer is tragic (not ‘righteous’, which is how Snyder portrays it) and his backstory is immensely sad. His brief moment of…

‘I would also be curious as to how the Marvel ownership — set up their bankruptcy deal to keep the intellectual property under one roof. There was every reason to sell it off piecemeal.’

Fair enough!  Sorry Kang sounded like a dick. I was just joking.
