I figured it would be Jaime

Although I’d hate for the right-wing dipshits like Cernovich to think they’ve ‘won’, I think that outcome is in many ways the best one for everyone, assuming the journeyman or woman filmmaker doesn’t mind taking a backseat on-set.

I’ve seen the idea floated that they’ll officially rehire him as a “producer” and he’ll be on set every day actually doing directorial stuff, while their nominal “director” will be someone who’s an anonymous journeyman who’s fine with having it on their resume while Gunn does all the heavy lifting.

Hire James Gunn’s non-union Mexican equivalent: Diego Pistolaa

You’re forgetting the Raging Bull method: actually have the actor gain a lot of weight for those specific scenes! Sure, it’s unhealthy to drastically change your body weight in a short amount of time, but the duty of an aaaactor is to sacrifice everything for the sake of great art! Like Insatiable!

key changes to Christie’s classic whodunnit, so that even the most avid Christie fans can relish in a twist ending

It’s a bit difficult to sell “let’s just ignore the President of the United States,” as much as my sanity would very much enjoy that.

Yes. That’s the solution. Stop talking about the most powerful man in the world. If we just ignore him, he’ll go away.

That wasn’t the problem. They could have made really fantastic stories with the leftovers. And even in the stories that weren’t about the leftovers, the writing was bad and the characters were awful.

Agree!! I find it hard to believe that we’re supposed to take that scene at face value. Even if Jimmy felt released by Howard’s mea culpa, the normal reaction, after all that guilt and internal turmoil, would be empty exhaustion, not delight. Jimmy feels as bad as ever — maybe even worse now that he knows his

but before he can drop them down a grate in the warehouse yard

It’s a low bar to clear, but I’m not yet convinced that the upcoming Venom movie will be better than Spider-Man 3.

I take it you didn’t come from Breaking Bad? It’s cool if not, it’s just that there’s no great mystery about those scenes for those who did.

After Jimmy puts down the phone, you can hear that the obituary continues to say that he’s survived by his ex-wife and his brother Jimmy, who is “following in his footsteps as an attorney”

Of course Hank being Hank his “Enrico Matasa” character is wearing a giant gold “H” on his chest.

And then give us I like Mike, a prequel focusing on Mike’s days as a cop. With Jonathan Banks playing the title role despite looking 4 decades older than he should.

JUST CAST THE WOMAN WHO IS ON THE GODDAMN SHOW, DC.

Who wants Supergirl without Melissa Benoist?

Not to mention that Hank showed some not-inconsiderable skills, whipping that gun out of Wide Whale’s hand into his own. That was some downright superhero level stuff, right there.

Another incredibly deep-cut reference is when Hatred is listing off all the various Venture-related ghosts he references the many deaths in a millinery fire... which is a call back to Doc’s “my father was a super-scientist, his father was a super-scientist, his father was... wait, no, I think he was a milliner” speech.
