Adam Green’s been around for a while. Like fifteen years ago he was mildly famous for being that jerk who thinks it’s funny to make awful shitty friend’s-joke-band-in-middle-school music and get hipsters to pretend to like it. He did kind of fall off the radar when that kind of post-irony-irony shriveled up and died,

Nobody needs to pretend. He’s a useless dumbshit and nobody likes him.

Nono, just dark blacks (no grey box/rim) and glowing bright whites, not whatever the technical HDR spec is. High dynamic range, not High Dynamic Range.

We’ve got a pin-sharp crystal-clear high dynamic range high-lumen projector projecting to a giant screen that takes up an entire wall. (Well, it leaves room at the bottom for low cabinets containing the hi-fi and a bunch of Blu-Rays and whatnot.)

They consistently do excellent-to-superb sound mixing in Hollywood. Unfortunately for many people, it’s with the aim of sounding as good as possible in a movie theatre, and they don’t really consider how it’s going to come out when it’s roughly auto-downmixed to 2.0 and played back at very low volume on a terrible $40

The irony status of that comment is indeed a mystery, if you have just had a major concussion and are bordering on unconscious.

Just get a six foot actress and have her stand on a box in her two-shots, sheesh.

I would love a Moon Knight show that’s not on Disney+.

That’ll teach us to make fun of, mock, lampoon, or deride renowned author, prosperous scribe, and pecunious scribbler Dan Brown.

On a scooter that’s like an hour and a half of transit total, barring rush hour. One half of an LA commute is not unreasonable to do in one day.

Roll them into what

OH MY GOD

I kind of admire just how pigheadedly pretentious Hideo Kojima can be, but making up a new term just for “freeroaming action adventure but kind of janky and full of exposition” is a step too far.

Is there any way we can stop this horseshit? Can I contribute to a Kickstopper to get this project canned?

Thundercats was marginally better than He-Man. The original He-Man was like on the level of those Hanna-Barbera cartoons where [an animal] is good at [a thing] but a huge idiot, and their sidekick is the smart one, and each cartoon is a long chase through a looping background. (You know the ones. There’s like a dozen

I will be extremely impressed if he manages to make something worth watching out of that. Trying to make a good He-Man show isn’t just polishing a turd, it’s giving the shallow brown smear left after a Roomba runs over a turd a full makeover and some quick coaching so it can go on TV and present the weather.

And their second best (by a fairly narrow margin)!

My Chemical Romance. You know which one it was even if you don’t really know the band.

Hairdresser Jon Peters. They let him produce movies because Barbra Streisand once gave him a producer credit for doing her hair, and he proceeded to stumble backwards into a couple of mediocre hits and a lot of the worst movies ever made.

Nah, man. At best that’s a mitigating circumstance that means he doesn’t fully deserve the max two years hard time.
