Back when he did Clerks 2 he half-joked about making another one every decade or so as a way to deal with where his life was at at the time. Clerks was about being trapped working in that store, Clerks 2 was about the fears he’d had about being a father. The original version of Clerks 3 would have probably simply been…

Clearly the problem is that he was “36.”

Update: I went for it. It was indeed delicious.

Probably a combination of other projects and maybe considering his options given how they let Abrams throw him under the bus before RoS came out. But then, he is developing a trilogy, and Disney probably doesn’t want to say anything concrete until he’s farther along and the sequel trilogy has faded a little bit from…

So how many people would hunt me down and toss me in the river with some cement shoes for considering making this, but replacing the giardiniera with peppers in sauce made by a local Italian restaurant? (Though now that I check something, it looks like the restaurant actually makes giardiniera as well, I just don’t…

My husband joked that all it was missing was sausage, which is a common criticism from Mr. Meatosaurus.

Weirdly enough, I don’t remember these at all. Maybe the local franchisee didn’t do them?

Well, “everyone since [Moffat]” means just Chibnall. You’re right, though. I’m not too offended by Chibnall as showrunner in terms of overall tone and such, but he insists on at least co-writing pretty much every episode and he’s just... not good.

So, thoughts—

Personally, it’s because I take care of a disabled roommate and as a result do 80% of the cooking and 100% of the cleaning, and there are times when I just don’t have the energy for anything more than “place mug, insert pod, push button.”

From what I’ve seen, heard, and read of Whedon, he’d probably have gotten off on it if she did.

Well damn. That explains why my martinis keep tasting the way a barn smells.

Which makes the catering to her doubly nonsensical. She wasn’t some break-out star/fan favorite.

The boot gives it flavor, dammit.

Aside from the main topic of this, I’m actually having to stop and think about the last time I sat down in an actual restaurant, because I’m legitimately not sure. I think it was an Indian restaurant I visited while at a convention just outside DC right before stuff started locking down and people started masking up.…

It weirds me tf out that Sia uses this kid as her avatar when she’s been so outspoken about the damaging effects of fame and hypervisibilty, especially for women.

I keep meaning to take a closer look at Wynonna Earp. I read the original comics when they came out (though I’m given to understand the show is more based on a reboot of the comic, I think?), but I admit when I first heard about the TV series I kinda wrote it off as someone wanting to do a Supernatural knockoff.

I remember my roommate and I seeing one of the show’s early big missteps was sidelining and killing D.L. so early just for Niki’s sake (and in a flashback that took place between seasons, at that). Like, that really put us off at the time. We didn’t like Larter as an actress, and we didn’t like her characters. It…

Oh, that’s more than fair. The construction of the sequence is amazing. Of course, one could argue it’s not a coincidence that the best part of the movie also has the least amount of dialogue. But yes, the ‘Duel of the Fates’ fight is probably one of the high points of the franchise. In the recently-released final…

And even then, the Duel of the Fates is fun to watch, but in the larger context of the movie it doesn’t make a hell of a lot of sense. Like, Darth Maul has nothing more effective he could be doing with his time, skills, and magic powers than just having a video game boss fight with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan?
