No, I’m actually okay with new talent being given an opportunity to find work instead of a handful of actors being cast “in perpetuity” because a bunch of nerds can’t cope with their own limited time on this planet.

My pre-emptive condolences to whichever VA inevitably gets bullied off Twitter after being announced as the replacement.

they always do this with every big movie

“let’s talk about the ending of (insert movie here)” has been a thing here for a while. It’s not like they titled the article “make sure to stick around after the credits of TMNT for The Shredder”.

It’s an easy post to avoid and it has plenty of warning, something gizmodo is not always great at.

I think this would make the fan theory* that he’s playing Hugh Jackman and being forced to be Wolverine by Deadpool all that funnier.

House Harkonnen - white people really are the worst

I’m just here for the continuing arguments between the “Lynch Dune is a visionary work of art that can never be approached” camp and the “Lynch Dune is a crime against humanity” camp.

I thought part 1 was dull and unimaginative and therefore have low expectations for pt. 2. Dennis essentially just upgraded the special effects and copied David Lynch’s version (practically) shot for shot.

Exactly, there was a major change when it came back. I can’t think of anything in the original run that was like the Susan Boyle episode, which has not aged well at all. That and the Flanderization of some of the characters, I don’t have much faith for this new new reboot.

the brain war that was parodying 5 year old Starship Troopers

Parodying society isn’t at all the same as doing “issues of the week” like south park. Most of their classic episodes are random like the egg-salad sandwich worms making Fry a genius, Slurm willy wonka, amazon women, the fem-puter, Omicron Poppers, the brain war that was parodying 5 year old Starship Troopers, etc.

 How many times has this show been revived?

The trailer seems really “topical”. Pandemic, crypto, meta jokes about streaming platforms. I don’t remember original Futurama being very topical, but the reboot did it more like with the iPhones.

It’s better said that it was pretty well believed since the first season, but never with direct first-person confirmation until now.

Robert Downey Jr. admitted as much about Iron Man, too. Basically, I saw him in an interview for one of the Iron Man sequels where he said something like, “Once the mask comes down, I’m on a plane back home to California.” When it’s just the full suit on screen, it’s either CGI or another actor in there, not Downey.…

This was pretty well known about since the first season, how is this still news?

Yeah, I figured he was in the suit zero percent of the time in season three since he was in Canada filming The Last of Us and we never saw Mando without his mask last season.

The answer seems to be “less than you think.”

I can wait.

Anyplace we can get a playlist of these songs?
