I’m a regular Netflix user and yet was only vaguely aware that Netflix has games now. They’ve done next to nothing to market the service - even Apple regularly reminds me that there are games to be downloaded in Arcade. I went to the mobile app just now to try to find the games - even though I was actively looking, it…

Well, all right, then - revise my earlier estimate dramatically downwards.

I’m not a horror fan, which might explain why I felt the horror elements of the comic verged on nihilistic excess - especially the 24-hour diner scenario, which had me wondering what the point of it all was, aside from being extreme for the sake of extremity, shattering norms, etc. I think it’s smart to set this…

John Lasseter at Pixar and Disney Animation did great work as a contributor to and coordinator of a well-oiled creative machine that relied on the remarkable skills and rare talent of hundreds and hundreds of contributors distributed throughout the company. He may have tried really hard to build that same machine at…

Probably, but it’s definitely not “American Indians.”

If the rumors are true and there will be no original, scripted content on HBO Max under the new regime, then “Peacemaker” (and “Harley Quinn,” and “Superman & Lois,” and all the rest) would have to either find a place on HBO proper or cease to exist, no matter what Gunn’s reps are currently telling him.

Judging by this review, I’m not sure that the AV Club bothered to check up on the usage of “American Indian” vs. “Native American,” either.

While I agree that HBO existing in the same universe as HBO Max was needlessly confusing, stripping scripted content from HBO Max and turning it into just another reality TV channel would just be stupid. That would drag down the HBO brand while also stepping on Discovery’s toes as the channel of choice for customers…

I have not been a SNL viewer in many years, which is why, whenever I see Pete Davidson, he just looks to me like someone who would be credited as “Vampire Number Three” at the end of a cheap indie horror film that you stumble across on YouTube.

Hollywood in general has had a problem with repeatedly handing over comic book properties to directors who have no real interest in the material, but what I feel the MCU did much better than WB is keep creative control in the hands of people who love comics. Snyder had a vision for the DC properties, but it was his…

“Maximizing shareholder value” is CEO-speak for “we’re going to slash and burn to get the stock price up and lock down our ridiculous executive bonuses. Where will that leave the business long-term? Who gives a shit? By then I’ll be on my yacht, doing blow with Leo and a bunch of supermodels.”

There’s a writer for “Grey’s Anatomy” who was recently exposed as being the poster child for this sort of activity. For years she claimed to be a cancer survivor, and even got her job on the show by leveraging sympathy for her condition — she never had cancer. She said she was abused by her brother — there’s no…

It’s just Biblical values, as seen in Matthew 4:4: “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on up to five free chicken entrees per shift.”

Sure to be the greatest store-based holiday movie since “Miracle on 34th Street!”

I seem to remember some earlier reporting on this website (or one of its sister sites) that Sudeikis first learned that Wilde had bailed on their relationship when he saw paparazzi photos of her with Styles. So yeah, the idea that there was some “overlap” there seems pretty well-founded. On-set PDA between the…

I don’t get the bidding war around this. Is “Tomb Raider” still a brand that anyone outside of Reddit forums really cares about? Why not just take the basic idea - female Indiana Jones goes on unlikely adventures - and get your own franchise going? That would probably be cheaper, and you wouldn’t have to satisfy the…

There’s no way Shakira is doing hard time over this. They’re just trying to scare her into ponying up the cash.

“I feel like the only thing people should care about is the stuff that I care about, because no one’s experience is different from mine, and my perspective is all-encompassing. I can’t figure out why people keep posting their dumb little opinions online when they could just ask what I think.”

If her dialogue and decision tree are being written by a bunch of white people, even if they’re well-intentioned there will be some degree of stereotyping. We can only hope that their source material goes beyond Richard Rodriguez’s films.

I hope someday to move to the mythical realm in which this advice would be a good read on the situation. In the country I live in - the U.S. in the year 2022, on the planet Earth - the following obstacles are pretty hard to overcome:
