His guest appearance on the last (proper) Glen Campbell album, soloing on the song In My Arms, is a beaut.

I feel like deciding that 90% of the people who disagree with you actually hold ulterior political motives that they aren’t voicing, but are instead using their opinion of a movie to signal to others their personal belief systems, is ex-fucking-actly what you spent the rest of your comment decrying

One of seven, in fact.

Alliteration: overvalued

Such are the pitfalls of only having one celebrity astronomer at a time. How about a talent search reality show for a new host: Reaching for the Stars, perhaps? You’d have people running planetariums all over the country sending in their audition tapes. You could get some celebrity nerds to judge it.

Interestingly, one of the reasons they made Susan the First Doctor’s granddaughter was to avoid any suggestion of hanky-panky between the two of them.

Am I too slow with this?

Thanos isn’t a sociopath, he’s every first year CompSci student. He thought of one bodged together, half-arsed solution to his problems and couldn’t be arsed to see if there was a better one elsewhere.

See, that’s what makes me such a visionary--I invert the tropes of the genre, and then I invert them again! It’s that kind of 360-degree twist that keeps me in my lucrative job with Blumhouse!

Were you not entertained?!

Surely Carpenter (b. 1948), whose first feature film was 1974's “Dark Star,” is a contemporary and not a predecessor to Spielberg (b. 1946), whose first theatrical release was 1974's “Sugarland Express”.

Its tone is strange compared to the original “Predator.”

I have yet to read Consumed, actually! I keep meaning to — he signed a copy to me that same day I met him — but I have roughly a billion To Be Read books in my place (hazard of the trade), haha, and it’s sort of fallen by the wayside. I do like to read only horror during October though, and maybe I’ll pair that with…

to me though it shows the Los Angeles entertainment industry with a cold, unflinching fascination.

Thanks for a very thoughtful analysis!

This news was welcomed by the nation’s painfully unfunny people who work in offices, who are polishing up their delivery of “MAH WAIFE!” as we speak.

I dunno if it’s even fair to call that a cliffhanger, and certainly not one that’s hard to follow up on — the scene with Rey finding Luke begged the question “where do they go next?” (people can disagree in good faith on how well Johnson delivered on that), not “how do they get out of this conundrum?” which is the…

I agree with you on the clunky delivery. There’s a lot to like and I ended up understanding what all went down but the storytelling lacked in cohesiveness.

Lisa Bonet ate no basil

The thing is, it’s all pretty clearly a corporate mandate to hand over the reigns from the old guard to the new characters. Those side-movies like Rogue One and the Han Solo one (and whatever else they come up with) appear to be targeted a little more towards fan service and placating the Star Wars scholars, but the…
