Clearly Reese Witherspoon is the right pick here. Just tell him Legally Blond is a documentary. 

Verily, he has lost the favor of the Stonecutters. 

“By the way, Rey, you also have a brother named Henry. He’s a junior on the hockey team at Hoth Academy. But that’s all you need to know about him. He doesn’t have any other character traits.”

Yeah, I thought most of the confusion at the end of season of Legion wasn’t about what actually happened, but rather was more confusion about the moral judgments the show seemed to be asking us to make. 

I’m thinking a sequel focusing on Jesse Pinkman. Jesse successfully makes it to Alaska and starts a new life under a fake identity. But he’s still afflicted with a guilty conscience over everything that went down, so he becomes a community organizer focused on combatting the opioid epidemic in Anchorage. He becomes…

I don’t know. From what we know about the shooter so far, his grudge and mental instability pre-date Trump by a good bit. It might kind of be like the Gabbie Giffords shooting. It certainly didn’t help that Palin and co. were putting out images with the heads of Democratic politicians in the crosshairs of a gun and…

Yeah, at this point, we have one party whose members either don’t care about the rule of law, a democratic political system, and basic human rights or are willing to stand by while their colleagues destroy those things for the sake of getting tax cuts or getting re-elected or whatever. ANYONE who is concerned about…

That’s the thing. Not only was he defending a corrupt and immoral administration on an almost daily basis, but he was also incredibly inept at the whole giving press conferences/interacting with reporters thing. Setting aside the content of what he was saying, why would anyone look at the manner in which he conducted…

I think Chris Rock had a bit on that in his latest Netflix special. It was something like, “People forget how bad Bush was. I mean, he was so bad, the country decided, ‘Hey, you know what? Why don’t we turn things over to a [black man] for a while? Can’t be any worse.”

Yeah, the way I see it, Rotten Tomatoes does yield some false positives. A movie could have a 95% score because 95% of the critics thought it was slightly above average, but I can’t think of an example of a movie that got below 50% that I ended up liking. If 50% or more of the critics think a movie is below average,…

Things like this make it clear that most of the Trumpist political “philosophy” is governed by the basic of principle of “Do we think this will trigger libtards? If yes, then that’s what we’ll do.” The whole administration is basically a message board troll all-star team become national government.

I feel like the show generally hasn’t been as careful with philosophical nuances this season. In the first season, whether you bought their thinking or not (and there were some good explanations by philosophers of mind showing why you shouldn’t buy their thinking), the writers gave us a fairly detailed (for a TV show)…

I’d just like to say that I get/agree with a lot of the moral concerns and issues with inconsistent character development, but I re-watched the opening scenes with David levitating while lip syncing “Behind Blue Eyes” and Oliver and Melanie finding early-60s suburban bliss in their ice cube, and I think, “Oh Legion, I…

Yeah, it seems like the moral compass in the show is a bit screwy. Syd has clearly done awful things in her past, but is treated as a paragon of goodness. The Shadow King has raped, killed, tortured who knows how many people, but he’s apparently allowed to walk out of Division 3 a free man, while David is condemned?…

After the episode inside Syd’s head, I was seriously considering the possibility that she’s been evil all along and was trying to gain control over David through her “feminine wiles” to use him for her own possibly nefarious purposes. After that, though, Syd reverted to type as the caring, concerned girlfriend, and I…

Waiting for Mueller...set in a fascist, dystopian US of the near future, starring Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart.

I don’t know. I love watching soccer, but by now I don’t mind other people saying it’s boring. I think baseball is incredibly boring to watch, but for plenty of other people, it’s riveting. So, different strokes for different folks.

Man, it’s a tough crowd in here today. I didn’t mean for my post to imply that stakes are only created by people dying. It’s just that I feel with most superhero movies you know walking into the theater that regardless of all the dangers the hero and their crew face, the movie will end with a reset to more or less the…

Hmm...it really seems like it would have been better to let him stay dead. I thought seeing his sacrifice to prevent further killing and destruction confirmed for Diana the idea that humans are worth fighting for, which gave her the necessary strength to beat Ares.

I feel like there’s some inconsistent character work going on. Maybe it’s inconsistent in the “who knows what’s real anyhow?” sense, but I’m starting to think it’s inconsistent in the sloppy writing sense. After showing us the episode inside Syd’s mind earlier in the season, why would Syd be that freaked out by David…
