Riffing off of the endless scroll article that made it harder to get to the comments section this time, maybe Moon Knight? Although maybe I’m taking “legitimately nutty” a bit too literally . . .

Look, if I admitted that, then I’d have to admit that I too knew that off the top of my head, and I’m not willing to do that.
There are a few loud weirdos who are outraged, and then their outrage gets signal boosted since it’s good PR for (in this case) Marvel. It’s a pretty depressing symbiotic relationship big studios and trolls have these days.
With strange aeons even death may die . . .
Obviously the correct way is for her to throw shittons of money at Screaming Females, who’ve already proven superior at re-recording songs branded as Taylor Swift.
They'll Never Stop The Simpsons
Yup, if folks quit places like the A.V. Club en masse and start another, it’ll totally be a success! Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m just going to take a big swig of coffee and open a new tab in my browser to The Dissolve . . .
Plus moments of tension that can go unstated yet implied, like Greg mentioning how embarrassing it is that his interview failings are there on tape for all his colleagues to hear. Oh, how humiliating to expose yourself to your colleagues via these interview tapes, he tells Carr without at all understanding how much of …
I also think there’s a valid argument to be made that Anime is largely in terms of style, particularly animation style, and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the style used for this *was* very anime.
Yeahhh, I bounced hard off of Marvelous Mrs. Maisel for that very reason.
“Not coming from money” might go a long way to making the main characters less insufferable, so that’s a distinction with a notable difference. (Look, I loved the dialogue on Gilmore Girls, great and entertaining writing, but nearly every episode I ever watched caused serious congitive dissonance as I couldn’t figure…
So weird that life-threatening injuries can be talked about in terms of cost, because our society is so disfunctional it might not actually help an individual if they can’t pay.
I don’t feel like it’s too complicated; these movies are garbage, Michelle Rodriguez is a national treasure, ergo I don’t really give a shit but she’s right.
All these effigies are a goddamn fire hazard!
“How could everyone be so dumb?” say future generations about Bill Cosby.
Yeah, a lot of the problem there is the pacing of the reveals in the show. We don’t ever really see any reason to be too suspicious of Homelander that the wider world also sees, and we do get evidence that even within The Seven he normally puts a very unrelenting positive sheen on things, but we also are privvy to…
In all honesty, I enjoyed Nightflyers far more than I should have (because it was pretty damn bad in many, many ways) due to how strong of a type of setting that is. See also: Another Life, and even moreso that YouTube Originals series I can’t for the life of me remember the name of [quick Google search later] Origin,…
Yeah, you have to be in the right mood. But if you *are* in the right mood it's a great contrast to the frenetic and cut-laden style of most modern movies and TV.
Yeah, fair enough. From my recollection the original Handmaid’s Tale novel did go into juuuuust enough detail for me to do a double-take and think WTF, that doesn’t actually make any sense, when it could have easily been slightly less detailed in the one or two passages that talked extensively about the wider state of…
