This fantastic article, and the amazing comments, remind me of the good old days of the AV Club. Thanks!

First of all, you make me want to change my user name to CharacterZeroCloser. Secondly, with all this craziness dialed up to 11, maybe if a mother dies in childbirth, the baby should be charged with involuntary manslaughter. Why not?

I accidentally put the game down to eat dinner, without pausing or saving, and when I came back I realized I had starved 10 of 12 followers to death. The other two were super pissed.

So, if a mother dies during childbirth, and the baby survives, will it be charged with involuntary manslaughter?

Whoa that just blew my mind a little.

Nitpicker. It took me out of the movie for a minute, even though I didn’t care.

Yeah but you’d think there’d be some kind of breach of contract on his end, that he’s clearly breached multiple times by now, jeopardizing the movie and its profits, which should allow the producers to do whatever they can to salvage this hot mess, including recasting and/or deepfakes. I guess we’ll find out.

In the opening scene the dog is constantly distracted, looking past the camera, presumably at all of the crew, or a handler, who are trying to get it to not do exactly that. It’s a long tracking scene, too, one I assume they didn’t want to reshoot a bunch of times if possible. So, yeah, she kinda broke the wall, but…

It does beg the question, but it’s also irrelevant.

I’m surprised Michael Jackson gave permission for I’m Fat.

Thanks for the validation. I’d get into it further, but I want to see if anybody comes to the same conclusions as I did. Now if only I can convince anyone else to see it. First time ever my wife and I went to the movies together but saw different films. Nothing against Downton Abbey...

Top White Savior (Legend - 1985)

What, no Legend?!?!?

Wasn’t the bathtub upstairs? Which would make it harder to peep in on.

Uhhh.... Vikander is Swedish, just saying...

Fury Road being 7 years old just blew my mind. I would’ve guessed maybe 3 or 4. 

Vulfpeck is great! Their YouTube vids are a lot of fun. Some excellent musicians, but especially Joe Dart on bass.

nvm the wiki page has it all. I knew my other fav Alastair Reynolds had a few pieces in there, but I didn’t know Scalzi was all over it. Neat!

Wait what did Scalzi have to do with previous seasons? And when is somebody going to adapt Old Man’s War? Or Android’s Dream?? Or Locked In???

It can be two things
