More like 100% childish entitlement.

Odysseus is a fun dick (at least to modern audiences) because he's duplicitous, like a proto-Han Solo, but Achilles is a lame dick because he's 75% pride and 25% childish entitlement. Ancient Greek nobles, being primarily warriors, probably found those traits compelling, but I think modern Westerners can't connect…
I enjoyed National Treasure as dumb fun, but why did it have to be so long? The first Pirates of the Caribbean movie has the same issue.
Early 20th Century crime fiction was teeming with homosexual male characters, but their portrayal was on the whole… not positive, to say the least.
"those in the industry unable to afford the area’s ever-rising rent and property taxes."
This is great. "late for meeting" is still my favorite—I can't help but laugh every time he starts driving that car.
A million zombies isn't cool. You know what's cool?
Pretty much everyone in my office makes "I believe you have my stapler" references. It's like the "Yeah baby!" of middle-aged white-collar professionals.
"a skeptical English historian who turns out to be the last direct descendent of the Arthurian wizard Merlin."
Asked for personal comment in the bowling alley of his Los Angeles home, Day-Lewis responded "I'm finished!".
Yes. Once I learned that cheap-ass Lei combo I never played as anyone else.
"what use, exactly, this human-free world could have for a school bus."
Did you get the Geostorm trailer with the slowed-down, gritty rendition of "What a Wonderful World"? Please tell me you did.
Which is the worst? I'd put my vote in for some pretty gross chow mien I had from those food stands near the boardwalk area.
I found the film too obviously emotionally manipulative, like the creators were saying "we're Pixar and we know how to play you like a fiddle". But that's just me; I critique children's movies on the Internet in my free time.
I'd clarify that this mediocrity is in relation to their flawless run of the 90's and 00's. I'd still take these three films over all the Shreks and Minonses and Hotel Transylvanias in the world.
Yeah, that ride is amazing. It seamlessly combines the adrenaline of modern coasters with the slow, let's-creep-through-a-bunch-of-animatronic-dioramas of classic Disneyland rides.
Back when Cars 2 came out I'd agree with you, but since that movie much of their output has been middling (Finding Dory, Monster University, Brave) or kind of bad (Last Dinosaur). In my view the greatness of Inside Out more than makes up for all their other recent missteps, but mediocrity has definitely crept into…
It's Hormel Black La *silenced gunshot*
