The other thing people need to realize is that fighting back against your abuser isn’t being abusive.

Nice of them to point out that Tunde Adebimpe is in TV on the Radio, for a sec I though it was the other famous Tunde Adebimpe.

Counter counter point:  Last time Raimi made a villain a “dark doppleganger” was Spider-Man 3.  So.....

Counter-counterpoint. The last time Raimi made the main villain a “dark” doppelgänger in Spiderman 3, it wound up being distracting and ridiculous, so there’s reason to be pessimistic.

i rant on this daily. if anything the monkees were too talented for their “Box” and when they started getting into their more psychedelic phase, it confused too many people.

this is such loser behavior. 

You really think that the 3 time movie director tapped by Disney to direct a major series starring one of the biggest actors doesn’t know how movies work? 

When’s the last time you heard a funky diabetic?

Turns out the answer is today.

Hey folks. I just wanted to drop in and say thank you to everyone here for all the kind words, and also for reading what I’ve written at The A.V. Club these past nine years. I know I wasn’t always the most consistent presence in the comments, even before the Kinja transition, but I dipped in fairly regularly, and for

this is absolutely the funniest take anyone could possibly have.

This recap mostly skipped over Kelvin bearing the cross (!) and kicking his Power Team out of the compound.

Yeah, I mean, I feel like what’s missing from some of these rebuttals concerning where she’s from being a white-majority area is that there’s not actually a good understanding of NYC’s geography and how close/accessible everything is relative to each other (and also that neighborhoods don’t have official boundaries).

Her manner of speaking is not cultural appropriation. Reason being is that her “dialect” is not one that is specific to one “culture” or race. Blacks are NOT the only ones that speak like this nor do they have the right to claim “rights” to a certain dialect. Her dialect is that of lower economic neighborhoods in NYC.

I think it’s fair to call her out to make a greater point about AAVE but growing up in Forest Hills isn’t really that damning. It’s not like she’s from some remote wealthy suburb like Westport and went to boarding school at Choate... Forest Hills is a small neighborhood a few subway stops away from extremely varied

Sucks that this is only being released to such obscure platforms.  I hope they will consider doing an art-house style release on it...little theaters like Angelika could use something funny.

The most visionary rapper currently working and the creators of one of the most popular comedies of all time? I'm sure they'll cry all the way to the bank. 

I don’t see how this doesn’t end up being a career damaging fuckup for everyone involved. If I was an actor you would have to put a whole shit-ton of money on the table to even get me to consider it.

One of my top 5 favorite writers ever. Her craft was eerily perfect in the same way Nick Drake’s guitar playing was--not a metaphorical buzzed string to be heard. I knew this would come eventually, but god, this fucking sucks.

TBH, I don’t think it’ll hurt him much. No reason Disney wouldn’t want to stay on his good side and try to make a go of this movie; he produced two Thor movies, Cinderella and took one for the team with Artemis Fowl’s release last year. Plus, with the Oscar buzz from Belfast and the fact that its a sequel to a
