Because the young Sean Young gif was the image for the article on the front of io9? Headlines when the film was still in the theater referred to a surprise cameo, not that it was specifically Rachael.

Yeah, this is a pretty big spoiler. I have really been looking forward to watching this movie, but I couldn’t make it to the theater because I have a toddler.

That’s kind of how TV Tropers operate. They know the tropes inside and out, the good and the bad, to dissect and catalog them on their TV Tropes wiki.

Racism is not a two-way street. This is Sociology 101 stuff.

This reply is for those saying, “Charles Pulliam-Moore is calling Garland a racist!” You all are limiting your definition of “a racist” to literal klansmen and nazis. While these folks are indeed abhorrent of racists, this is not the only way white people are racist. Even if a white person means well, it is also…

I haven’t read the book series. I’m curious if the other characters are described as people of color, white, or unspecified. I wonder if Garland ended up going the “colorblind” casting route and ended up with two white women as leads, and the rest of the cast as people of color.

I’m glad you clarified. I had been wondering why the casting of Tessa Thompson, Gina Rodriguez, Oscar Issac, BD Wong, and Sonoya Mizuno wasn’t discussed.

I have 4 parrots. 3 are rescued, and the 4th I got for my 12th birthday and I still have because parrots live for-fucking-ever. I volunteer with a parrot rescue and mentor people on how to care for their parrots. I honestly don’t think parrots should be pets since they aren’t domesticated, and non-conservation…

I don’t have a cat either! I think normal cat food would be kibble or canned food. Do they still make pet food out of sick livestock, road kill, and euthanized pets?

I don’t really get why vegans have pet dogs and cats anyways. There are herbivores you can keep as pets, and avoid the dilemma of what to feed them. Rabbits and parrots, for example, both of which end up in rescues so you don’t have to support a breeder either.

Was it Peter Singer?

PETA believes that it is better to be dead than in captivity. They believe domestic animals should be eradicated. I mean, I’ve been vegan for 15 years, and I don’t get it. They are zealots so far removed from animal rights they cause literal harm to animals.

The overlap between “vegan” and “animal lovers” is smaller than you’d think.

I don’t think vegan cats are a good idea, but the taurine in normal and “vegan” cat food is synthetic, so I don’t think they’ll go blind.

Am I overlooking the link to the new trailer?

I’m really excited about the cast of this movie, especially the opportunity to see Gina Rodriguez in an action role.

I was thinking of clueless bosses like @notmyyacht’s, who are usually hired or promoted. But yeah, we have plenty of clueless politicians too!

It continues to baffle me how people who are so clueless get to be in charge.

I know we’ve been told Runaways is in the MCU, but I haven’t really seen any connections yet. I was assuming we weren’t in the MCU when Nico name-checked Obama and Gert’s classmates referenced Clinton losing the election.

Gert and Old Lace are telepathically bonded.

We said a lot of, “Fuckin’ Landry,” at my house when we watched Breaking Bad. Friday Night Lights was the first thing I saw him in.
