And yet there appears to be a plethora of AV Club readers saying they appreciate the article and so far the only one saying otherwise is you.

I can assure you that no one’s criticisms of you here have anything to do with your opinions on anything in the Star Trek franchise.

It helps that the guy that kicked his ass was the only one to be sufficiently wary of the guy. The mercenary realized all the mirrors gave Denzel an advantage and got rid of them. Even then, that didn’t really help. What helped was sheer bulk and strength to overpower Denzel. The film essentially established that his…

I definitely understand that complaint — that was also my main issue with the original Taken — BUUUUT dammit, Denzel was just too goddamn cool for me to complain too much about that. It’s no Die Hard, but in terms of Denzel killing fools for two hours, I was sound as a pound. If you’re gonna make a mindless movie,…

One of the reasons it stands out, in my estimation, is how closely it follows the original novel. The Bond of the Flemming novels is well rounded, more human than the movies portray. OHMSS shows him as a more human character, not a caricature.

That is a nice testament to Diana Rigg, as is that being a clear #1 best actress ever in one of the all-time most popular movie series is just a footnote to her career, probably overshadowed by giving the sexiest performance in TV history on The Avengers, and playing, at an advanced age, one of the most badass…

No lie, it’s always been one of my top three favorite Bond pictures — mainly because it was the very first one I ever saw completely through. Also, I fell hard for Diana Rigg (I was already an AVENGERS fan) and I couldn’t believe that mind-blowing finale. I think I was 7 or 8 at the time, and it made a HARROWING…

Trump have both problems. Nixon only have one. Obviously, Nixon better candidate than Trump on every level. That being said, me would love for at least one powerful political position in this country to not be entry-level job someone can coast into on name recognition.

I’m ‘bout it. Anything that inspires a few more dumb fucking white-ass racist neckbeard pieces of shit to have chest-shredding heart attacks, I’m in favor of. And it’s on a Star Wars movie, to boot.

This could be said of basically any profession, right?

Man, I work in marketing. This type of attitude is such a bummer, to the point that I’ve gone from loving clients to just not wanting to deal with them. I’ve walked into meetings with people I’ve never met, who are already set to fight me and hate the things I do. So many people decide right out the gate that you’re…

I agree 100% with this comment. However, I work in a marketing department.

You have no idea what marketing departments do. You couldn’t have a functioning company without someone doing marketing.

I liked him, and everyone else really, in the show Happy Endings.

I get the impression that you didn’t actually read the article. Unless you really think this profoundly stupid movie realistically represents human behavior.

How is it automatically phony? Do you think it’s impossible for a white person to agree with Kondabolu in good faith?

Hari is already a successful standup comedian, has released two albums, hosts one of the most popular podcasts in the country and has acted in multiple TV shows.

Why do people act like Kondabolu’s point is to “change” Apu? From his point of view, Apu is pretty much a lost cause.

When will your “two weeks hate” against Hari Kondabolu run out of steam? I’d ask when you’ll start to look unreasonable, but that ship has clearly sailed.

Yes, I’m sure that was Kondabolu’s actual motivation and not pointing out something that maybe people didn’t understand about portrayals of people from the subcontinent in American entertainment.
