The Academy’s efforts to make people forget that Mira Sorvino won an Oscar has officially gone too far...

I’d like to remind you of a little film called Problem Child.

But JK claims that her book had nothing to do with her own struggle and she was writing it years before her own “cancelling”.

You didn't even mention the best part.  The book in question is over 1000 pages.  Its just wall to wall pages of fake tweets insulting the Rowling stand in.  Its genuinely pathetic. 

Roy is DEFINITELY the new coach, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Coach Beard decide to remain in England. Nate gets redemption but not a head coaching job. 

Funnily enough the film, despite its JJ Trek issues, was holding me captivated right up until the Khan reveal. The idea of Harrison being this rogue black ops agent and Starfleet creeping towards aggression and the loss of due process due to security concerns could have been a timely message, and it’s been fertile…

You could make him one of Khan’s followers.

So much this, the film could have ended with Cumberbatch back in his sleep pod and the pull back reveals OST Khan 2-3 pods down from him. So unnecessary for Cumberbatch to be Khan.

Exactly. They are trying to go for a high profile win in a high risk case.  The public statements have all maintained that.  Baldwin should have just limited his public statements, but his public statements aren’t anything to charge someone on.  And the DA’s overzealousness leading to such an elementary mistake leaves…

It’s amazing how quickly people will jump on something like this. Love and Thunder came out less than a year ago. Taika hasn’t released a movie in 8 months? He’s obviously being shut out of the industry. I mean, he’s got half a dozen upcoming projects listed on IMDB and is currently involved in three different TV…

Yeah it’s the same as it always was: some cool MCU movies, some bad ones, they all make a brazillion dollars. This is such a made-up media narrative because critics WANT to believe it’s true.

I mean, here is a good point to note that “fandom” isn’t one voice. It’s going to be contradictory as a byproduct of what it is (a collection of passionate fans).

Yeah I definitely feel the rose-coloured glasses thing as well. I would say only a handful of Marvel movies have transcended being “good” to being amazing or fantastic for me. We look back on the first Captain America fondly now because the character ended up having an amazing arc by Endgame, but objectively it’s the…

Oh, I was going to point out the Grand Tour episode where they were in Colombia and did an entire segment on some village where the men were supposedly f***ing goats.

Well said.. I say this as a guy who used to love Top Gear (for the car stuff not Jeremy’s “comedy/old man whining”

there is a specific kind of theatre kid Ru hates with all her guts. Pretty sure it has a origin story on one ex.

COUNTERPOINT:

I walked past Middleditch a few weeks ago on the way back from the local farmer’s market. I shouted “THOMAS MIDDLEDITCH!” and pointed at him as we walked past. He looked spooked, although that’s kind of his standard expression.

Not just Souza, but none of the other producers are charged, nor the prop master. Which indicates that Baldwin’s on trial only for his actions as an actor: fumbling a complicated draw and (possibly) pulling the trigger on a gun that was not supposed to have functioning ammunition in it. Unless there is more to the…

“If he’s convicted, this will set a very questionable standard for actors that will likely make sets less safe when actors want to insist on checking weapons themselves when they are not trained in that capacity.”
