Look the question isn’t “why doesn’t AV Club cover The Simpsons anymore?” because that’s fucking obvious. The real question is “why does AV Club still cover Saturday Night Live?”

he joins a chorus of privileged public figures who have felt a need to speak out against this maligned “cancel culture”—which tends to actually consist of marginalized communities speaking out against sustained, systemic abuse

WW3 plot summary: Diana, still pining over her dead boyfriend, fashions an image of him from clay and uses her father’s godly powers to animate it. The third incarnation of Steve Trevor struggles to adapt to life in the 21st century, but we get many lovably goofy moments as he learns to use an iPhone and buys a

I kept waiting for her to snap Max Lord’s neck, like the “real” Wonder Woman did. Am I wrong to want an “R” rated Wonder Woman with a run time of say an hour and 30 minutes? Without an extended “early days of Diana” scene, and leave out the hour long “let’s fly a plane and hold hands” scene. Oh, leave out the Mall

This is an honest question, but is the Snyder cut really “highly anticipated” as AV Club says? Highly anticipated by whom?

This was a good Twitter response.

When Democrats say “elitists” they mean rich people, when Republicans say “elitists” they mean smart people.

I disagreed with a lot of Rowling's points, but for the AV club, which lied repeatedly about what she actually said, to accuse her of 'incoherent lies' is really something else.

‘Incoherent lies’ - this is nonsense. The pile-on of Rowling is nuts. Her points - that ‘women’ as a defined group shouldn’t be marginalised or renamed, and that the massive increase in gender dysmorphia among young people is connected to social media echo chambers - are relevant, totally reasonable ones.

Honestly, this all kind of seems like what happens when a mid-quality children’s book series about a wizard school is treated by its fans as both modern mythology and foundational moral text in ways that it’s ultimately not equipped to be.

It’s getting to the point where even making fun of the stupid shit that the Trump administration is doing is getting tiresome. While he’s still technically in the office, he is still newsworthy enough to demand coverage, but once he’s out, can we just stop paying attention?

Probably not a coincidence this came out the same day as the revelation about Kushner’s illegal shell company. Trump consistently finds ways to divert news cycles by releasing inane bullshit to distract the media and they fall for it damn near every time even after four fucking years.

This will only work if they get Sarah Michelle Gellar to reprise her iconic role as Kendall Hart.

My article, “Batman & Robin Doesn’t Deserve Your Hate,” will make the ironclad case that Batman sucks, all Batman movies are total dogshit, and making fun of the colorful trash is better than sitting through cold competence. It will be as eye-rollingly smug and self-satisfied as any Nolan fanboy’s essay, and get 400

So is AV Club going to acknowledge the recent passing of Ann Reinking? I’ve seen plenty of clickbait articles and nothing about this. I know this isn’t a big theater site but the woman was a Broadway legend and Fosse muse.

I hate to admit that I’ve never read his books (I should work on that) but the adaptations never let me down. The 70s Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy UK television series starring Alex Guinness (and Patrick Stewart!) is really good.  

IMO, it’s been a long time since Douglas has given a performance that isn’t the same as all his others. He’s a skilled movie star, but he’s long since passed the point in his career where all his performances became variations on his movie star persona.

Except the article is mostly not about Amber Heard. It’s about Depp’s idiotic and unprofessional behavior and alienation of practically all of his business associates. So it’s kind of funny that you’re obsessed with making sure we all know Heard is a bad person.  Like, I don’t think Amber Heard made Depp refuse to

But Zach Snyder’s Justice has recognizable characters? Huh? And what about the Batman Vs Superman crap that set it up? These movies suuuuuuuucccked.

This movie is number 2 on my list of shit I'm completely fucking sick of hearing about, right behind Donald Trump's month long temper tantrum over being a loser.
