The Prestige flat out tells you the trick behind everything in the movie, sometimes repeatedly.

Were those kids from Gotham?

You’ve just gotta find the right tone for your hero. Dark movies about Batman make sense, his backstory is pretty grim. But Superman, Shazam, the Flash - these are characters that are basically child wish fulfilment. “Fun” should be the word of the day. (In particular, Shazam needs a lot of fun. You can have serious…

Are you seriously trying to guilt-trip someone into not criticising this movie by using the COVID economic crisis as a cudgel? I mean, obviously it’s great that there are VFX employees who got work thanks to this movie, no one is demanding they should have been sent to debtors prison or starve in the streets in order…

I think an apology from Wanda would have gone over as well as a postbellum plantation owner apologizing to his former slaves.

Tucker Carlsan was a man,

Liberals claim to love diversity, but when I include notes from every key in my song, you mock me. Curious.

It’s just not the same without basketball players struggling not to crack up.

Developers were instructed to stop, collaborate, and listen.

“sweat and curse and jerk off and fire a gun and slide a needle into his arm,” known colloquially as the “Florida lunch break.”

Yeah, but I want to be able to authoritatively and comprehensively dunk on the Snyder Cut. I’m going to need to know what I’m talking about, just in case MANIMAL comes back.

- Looks like there was one disclaimer they forgot.

So… that’s ONE of the big reveals done and dusted. And while I think we all knew Agnes=Agatha was “a thing”, it was never certain how faithful to the comic they were going to be, or whether or not she was going to be an ally or an antagonist. And now we know (or do we?).

Kathryn Hahn’s cackle is a thing of wonder (if she WOULDN’T have been revealed as an evil witch by the end of the show it would have been criminal)
BTW, I’m pretty sure that’s also her singing her own theme song. (the lady parts obviously)

One theory was that Billy was “hearing” everyone screaming inside their own…

I’d be morbidly curious if the issue has to do with the size. Like they have to use so much gelatin in order for it to set, it’s completely impossible to get a quality gummy of that magnitude.

Lo Pan will only be made flesh again when he finds a girl with green eyes.

I love how Rebulicans are fans of “at-will” employment until one of their gets shit-canned for doing something not work related. At-will employment in action.

There is a world of difference between comparing *public figures getting pushback on their stated views* to putting people in concentration camps, and comparing *putting people in concentration camps* to putting people in concentration camps.

I think for me it was coming to realize just how honest to god genuine Mr. Rogers REALLY was. The movie in and of itself isn’t really a distillation of when we grew up, its based on a story in Esquire. But there was something about the realness or Mr. Rogers in the way he dealt with kids and people that you just don’t…
