Hot take: the movies aren’t actually that bad. The first and second are definitely the weakest, but the third was directed by David Slade. He made the sparkly vampires genuinely nasty at times, in ways that’d surprise anyone who wrote this off as tween-girl bait. (And probably surprise some of those tween girls too.)

Goddammit. I’ve already watched it twice.

Car chase and gunfight in space? “Highly classified material that could threaten our entire solar system” that they won’t name?

over half a century, Marvel’s X-universe has expanded to encompass intergalactic empires, a prehistoric jungle kingdom, mystical realms, even a gladiatorial reality-TV dimension ruled by a Jabba-like network tyrant.

It’s hard to identify who’s really responsible for how good the series was. Paul Greengrass writing Jason Bourne with his editor might indicate that Tony Gilroy’s writing was the real MVP. But when Gilroy was handed the reins with Legacy, he rehashed plot points (here’s yet another black book supersoldier program that…

It was pretty disappointing too, but it’s easy to leave it out of the series. Jason Bourne was worse.

The Bourne trilogy is one of the most consistently good film series of all time. Jason Bourne was shit.

Surely the weirdest thing about Fable 2 is that it has no PC version, unlike both its predecessor and successor.

I think what clearly comes across is their attitude of vague annoyance that people speaking up about oppression and bigotry are just really harshing their mellow. If only we’d just chill out and be cool with the misogyny, privilege and transphobia, y’know.

You are clearly wrong.

I don’t think you know the meanings of any of those words you used.

My opinion of them? They don’t know me from a hole in the ground, of course they don’t care about my opinion. What they want is more and more people joining their cause. What they want is opinion pieces that support them in national newspapers. What they want is someone who speaks for them getting a nightly show on…

No. What they want is legitimacy. Derision is precisely the right response.

As point of comparison, remember the Kendall Jenner Pepsi ad.

If it’s new ideas and moral and ethical issues you’re looking for, then I’m sorry to say DISCO isn’t gonna satisfy you. It’s pretty much just a space action show, very handsomely mounted, starring possibly the best lead actor since Patrick Stewart. And as space action shows go, it’s definitely smarter and less cheesy…

I think there’s a limit to how many ongoing storylines you can wrap up within a single episode, even the extra-long ones that we got.

Wow, tough crowd. I think it looks okay, wish it revealed more of the story (which a later trailer is sure to anyway), and am looking forward to it because I’m one of those edgelords who think there’s still legs to this franchise.

Better his daughter than his love interest.

I’m sure that’s possible and I’d be happy to be corrected, but I don’t know why you’re getting so pissy about it.

Every time I try to seriously engage with ME3's detractors and understand their complaints, I hear what they would have preferred for the ending. And... it’s shite. Every fan ending I’ve heard is shite. They all want a happy ending where Shepard lives and the whole galaxy celebrates and everything’s hunky dory.
