Having Kudrow’s character announce “we’re the Time Bandits” is on par with Zack Snyder calling the team in Watchmen “The Watchmen.”

Calling the original cast ‘Disabled’ seems a bit of a tall order...

Kindof done with Waititi’s brand atm. While I still enjoy Thor: Ragnarok (though I think it was a bit overhyped), Thor: Love & Thunder was an absolute mess. I’m not sure how involved he is with What We Do In The Shadows these days, but the less the better.

That’s not what The Bear is about.

the two weirdest guys in the history of weird guys? doing something weird?

I assume he was joking.  I’ve seen Nicole Kidman in line at a coffee shop and she had to wait like everyone else.

Everything Michael Jackson did was weird. Just like everything Scarlett Johansson does is sexy. 

Does this mean that for a short while, Kevin Bacon was one degree of Kevin Bacon away from Kevin Bacon?

Probably should have said that instead of blaming the material “you were given.”

Well, Eastwood is still alive 20 years after Brando’s death... I guess “the kid” won the longevity competition. 

If Ignatiy came back, I'd genuinely crack open a wine bottle.  Same with Caroline.

If they brought back O’Neil, I might actually believe our culture has a future.

My world of flops was probably THE series that I most missed. Very pleased to have it back and, yeah, Madame Web seems the perfect relaunch. 

It’s Rabin! Now bring back Sean O’Neil, Tasha Robinson, and Zodiac Motherfucker!

Good god! They really are reviving the old A.V. Club, aren’t they? What’s next? A takedown review by Ignatiy? The long-prophesied return of Snarkmaster General Sean O’Neal himself?!

It actually is a pretty under-rated sequel.  It checks all the boxes:  more of the same but bigger, smarmier, self-referential and just enough slight (but obvious) twists to keep it interesting.

Who can forget the enormous power Rosemary Clooney wielded in 1980's Hollywood when George Clooney got his start? Studio executives cowered in fear that she might sic Danny Kaye on them.

It’s always assumed that women attained their position through something other than talent or hard work. They got the job because they are pretty. They slept their way to the job. Daddy bought it for them.  It isn’t surprising that they get tarred with the Nepo Baby brush more often as well.

On the other hand, this is what appears to be a thoughtful news piece on the 2024 AV Club. How did that happen?

Brava, Ms Squibb!
