This news would fill me with more joy if the last season wasn’t so lazy and uninspired.

I feel like Connelly is actually meant to be playing Kelly McGillis’ character, since she and Cruise are meant to be playing two older ex-flames with a weighty history between them.

See, you’d be a lot more convincing with your “I am firmly neutral on Tom Cruise and only enjoy his movies” stance if you didn’t mean-spiritedly shit on Leah Remini for some reason.

Looks like this movie has critics jumping off the deck and shoving into overdrive.

She’s been in some of the biggest blockbusters of all time, but only as a supporting character.

what Cowboys & Aliens should have been.

That’s a weirdly ungenerous assumption. If money were her sole focus, this would be the opposite of what she’s doing.

Barsanti is far from being AVClub’s most popular writer, but the level of vitriol he earns is insane. Especially from this specimen who should absolutely stay in the greys. His comment history reveals how incredibly thirsty he is for Barsanti’s job.

Also, if you wanna talk about supervillain origin stories - in which an ordinary relatable guy undergoes the same plot structure of a hero origin story, only in the direction of evil - the ur-examples are obviously The Godfather part 1 and 2.

4. Snyder’s movies - and the interviews he’s given about them - often traffic in this teenage edgelord toxic masculinity that naturally has plenty of adherents on the internet.

The only take I have on this whole business is that anyone pushing the “it was all staged!” narrative is an unmitigated dumbass.

Oh, somebody’s making himself look shitty, all right.

What is this whataboutism bullshit? Racist Star Wars fans are shitty. Shitty Snyder stans are shitty. You aren’t “worse” or “better” than them. You’re both equally shitty.

Snyder may be the most tone-deaf and narratively incompetent filmmaker working today. He’s a more self-important Michael Bay.

People saying that have clearly either never been publicly humiliated, or don’t have the self-awareness to know what their face was doing when they were being publicly humiliated.

Half a million dollars? Jesus. Author Brandon Sanderson just raised $20 million on Kickstarter for a bunch of his wizard books. Seems like if there are enough Snyder stans to game the Oscars, they can fork out a little more money for a good cause.

U2 sounds like “you too.” Could it be that the band name was inspired by someone in the band members’ lives? Who were they, and what, exactly, were they too?

15 years in advertising. Not true.

My biggest problem with this movie: you never really believe these people are thousands of years old.

Ke Huy Quan plays Michelle Yeoh’s character’s husband? He’s almost 10 years her junior.
