Maybe the plot problems with cellphones will eventually disappear because young people seem to forget that cellphones can actually be used to make calls besides being used for social media and texting.  “I’m sure we’ll be rescued soon; I made a TikTok of me twerking while yelling ‘help!’ that will probably go viral!”

Agree completely. Modern comms technology has taken away some convenient plot devices, but it has created new ones at the same time. Other examples than *Succession*: there are several amazing sequences using texting in *I May Destroy You*, all the pagers in the room going off within a few seconds in (iirc) *Sum Of…

Even for this site, who gives a shit?

I took all grandchildren and it was a disappointment 😞. 

I went from a huge fan of his to I think I’ve had enough.

I’ll watch this because I give every Anderson movie a shot, but French Dispatch was like a soulless parody of his style. I found it completely uninvolving and really hope he doesn’t disappear up his own ass like that this time out as well.

I genuinely think the last person I remember as a winner of American Idol was Phillip Phillips (and even though it was just the one song). I don’t know if I’ve ever heard of a winner of The Voice put out a single. Is there a point to these shows aside from being relatively cheap?

Two Depp at Cannes articles on the front page? You guys are working overtime for those clicks!

Please stop remaking this creepy thing. Wonka couldn’t stand children, I don’t want to know how he became such a neurtoic, obessesive judgemental child abuser.

Hey! Cool. Some unpaid interns just threw together another slideshow article.

I’ll miss his show. know it is cool to hate on him, but there was plenty of great skits along the way, and they were fun to watch.

So, the “Best of Reggie Watts on the Late Late Show” slideshow goes up tomorrow, is that how this works?

You know what? I really like his show.

When they went to that Liverpool pub & that red velvet curtain opened to him performing for unassuming patrons, I lost it! And then going to his childhood home?! COME ON, MAN! 😭

As much as I hear terrible things about the man, this is clearly the best...

He seems like a dick in real life, but it’s easy to see why people like his on screen persona - He’s affable. He seems genuinely interested in his guests most of the time. He made some fun bits that many people felt they wanted to be a part of. He’s no better or worse than Fallon. A lot of the criticism towards him as…

“Hopefully, he is sincere about growing in understanding in the wake of this situation.” Really? The sanctimoniousness–pure, restrictive, neo-Victorian morality–is ridiculous. To say this “without knowing the specifics behind the incident(s)” is totally sloppy. Abraham is 83 years old. Is this writer, who knows none…

All a big misunderstanding.  Ab-use is referring to him doing situps to get in shape for his role.

Great article--thanks!

THIS take is so tiring.
