In case anyone’s not keeping track of the “2020s decade of things that should go without saying but here we are having to say them anyway”:

Yeah they don’t have a lot of new Halloween content this year. Last year they the awful Hocus Pocus 2 and the year before they had Muppers Haunted Mansion, which was a fun watch.

This movie looks like it should have been a D+ release. Even in July, I suspect it would have gotten a fair number of views. I get they are looking to make more money and that they no longer want to pump so much money into D+, but even a PVOD option (with or without a D+ subscription required) may have been a better…

Don’t know much about Fran Drescher but from what I can tell she is definitely the person for the job. No offense to anyone who says a strike should be “short and sweet” but that is just handing management the reins. A strike should last until an actual resolution is reached.

...Maya Gilbert-Dunbar—who argued in public statements that the strike should be “short and sweet,” and called for the union to bring in mediators to hammer out an early compromise with the studios.

From what I’ve seen, she’s been doing a great job.

Anything she’s done since the first Wedding hasn’t been any good-- I suspect that’s why she went back to the well.

I’m wondering the same thing. Given the number of comments on here saying they didn’t even know that there was a second movie (I’m also one of those people) while the first one is a romcom classic, I’m gonna guess skipping the second is fine but the seeing the first is fairly necessary.

I don’t think she’s bad, but I don’t know why she is a mega super star. She sounds fine, and like a bunch of other people.

But is watching the second one necessary preparation?

It does very much feel like someone was just like “-shrug- Melissa and Grant were on Glee. Let’s milk that.”

I’m sorry about your dad.

For me, it depends on the crime. There are many crimes for which one can be redeemed. I would speak on behalf of my friend if they were being charged with drunk driving or robbery. Possibly even murder. Because there can be extenuating circumstances. There can be grounds for redemption.

I don’t like the idea of criticizing Kunis and Kutcher here. This isn’t some privilege Masterson gets because he’s rich and famous — it’s a way all kinds of people convicted of crimes get to humanize themselves and to argue that their lives are redeemable. Kutcher and Kunis are longtime friends of Masterson, and it’s…

Once More With Feeling is indisputably number one.

Buffy’s Once More With Feeling could be the closest possible thing to a perfect episode of television, minus a couple issues (twist nonsensical reveal that Xander knowingly did it, coupled with some weaksauce early-2000s gay panic to resolve the conflict).

I’m happy the first one came out of nowhere to be such a hit, but making this into a franchise just seems like such an unnecessary thing. But your mom should be able to have her indulgences too! Ok maybe I’ll see it too. 

‘...Gus had hoped that the celebration would also offer Toula the opportunity to deliver the journal he kept after immigrating to the U.S. to his three boyhood best friends, so they would understand his lifelong journey.’

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3: Rise of the Machines

Sucks if the accusations are true, but I think for years a lot of people have hated him for what I think are some pretty undeserved reasons, like they think he’s not funny or too needy or his petting Trump’s hair somehow helped Trump win the election.
