Does ... does Scrooge ... does Scrooge blackmail Mrs. Crachit into having sex with him?

Well, we’ve had approximately eleven billion straightforward adaptations of A Christmas Carol, so why not go dark and crazy?

This seems like...a choice.

I mean...you have to time nostalgia well for it to stick. I don’t know anyone who gives a shit about Charlie’s Angels in 2019.

I am so tired of people saying this.  If you read the whole amendment it clearly states that you are given a Netflix comedy special only if you are part of a well regulated militia.   It was never meant to justify everyone getting to be a comedy cowboy no matter what the NCA propaganda says.  “You can pull my rubber…

Everyone is, but these are people I’d expect to have a good time. it would have been easy to make a joke that was basically “Ha-Ha! Fatty Falls down!” instead they made Melissa McCarthy’s character a great spy, and then made Jason Statham the butt of the joke. I just wouldn’t normally take him for a guy who spends…

The movie overall is great, but I love seeing the sheer joy on the face of Jason Statham who spends the entire film making fun of himself. 

Yeah. I was gonna say...

Sports shows are historically difficult to pull off. You need people who are believable at the sport. And you generally need lots of cast members in their 20s to make it somewhat authentic. 

League of their own is a very self contained story and it is aided by its brevity. turning it into a tv show seems like it would turn it into a generic ‘yo, baseball sure is dramatic.’

Last night’s “The Little Mermaid: Live!” reignited my and my dad’s love of tentacle porn! Can I get an upvote?

I semi-agree? When you boil it down, all superhero stories have the same plot: “Bad guy wants to do bad things, and only the special good guy can stop him and save the day.”

We rarely get shit, let us have it.

You’re not wrong. Killa K’s response exemplifies your point about how Kojima’s sledge hammer approach to making a point was and is a turn off to him.

I love that at this point, that they can’t exactly say well, okay, we plead guilty to THAT. 

In Maine, other kids knew you were poor if you got sent to school with a lobster sandwich.

Less overfishing. Lobster has never been particularly expensive on the coasts, near where it’s fished. Fishery collapses started happening pretty late in the 20th century after the reputation for expense had already taken hold. And the Canadian and Maine fisheries are so healthy right now that lobster sometimes sells…

I think I would agree with her point more if a man (Charles Rocket) had not had his career, and even his obituary, defined by saying “fuck” on SNL. 

The jokes really write themselves. I’ll start:
In one role, she had to play an irredeemable monster. In the other, she was just a murderer.

I wonder why she didn’t take the plea deal like Huffman. Was it lawyer advice? does she think she can beat the charges?

Looks like Huffman made the right choice. And got a damn good deal it seems to boot.
