It’s not that Steve was a better person than anyone, but the situation behind him taking the serum has yet to be repeated. Not only was he much younger and more naturally idealistic than any of the other people who’ve taken the serum—Bucky and the Bruce Banner of The Incredible Hulk come to mind—he was also the most…

I still remember the first time we got roaches in the truck from one of the filthier bars. And then there’s the returned bottles that’d still have *something* in them that would absolutely reek and sometimes splash around if you weren’t careful, because not all of the bars would bother emptying them out. They’d just…

I used to deliver beer for a distributor that dealt in returnable deposit-based bottles, once upon a time. They’d go to bars, who’d give us cases of their empties for the deposits. I can’t remember the full reason why the place eventually ditched them, but I’m pretty sure having to fumigate the business and the trucks …

It didn’t take me that long to get the bigamy joke, but it was only when the joke randomly popped into my head many years later (I blame the memorable line read from the voice actor) that it clicked.

I think WB has the distribution rights on that. But supposedly somebody at HBO Max is looking into bringing it back.

Maybe it’s because we didn’t get a lot of characterization for Sharon in the movies and almost none of it outside the context of her connection to Steve, but something about the bits with her just fell flat to me. I think I liked the episode a bit more than the reviewer, but there’s just a lot that seems really out of…

I imagine a lot of people are going to be somewhere between annoyed and angry that Venture Bros. got canceled yet Birdgirl exists.

Yeah, I’m not terribly invested in Space Jam one way or another and I had no expectations going in, but the only thing going through my mind the entire time was “What fresh hell is this?”

Well-played, well-played.

After 13 years of memes and bad impressions, we should all be sick of him.

I remember once reading a term for that sort of experience but I can’t recall it off-hand. That feeling when you just step out of an action movie, and you’re pumped up and enjoyed it, but later you stopped and thought about it and were like “Wait, I liked that?” Like, it’s not ‘fridge logic’ or anything like that, but…

This reminds me of when the PS2 came out, and someone posted an eBay entry for an empty PS2 box, but deliberately worded the ad badly enough so most people would assume that the guy meant “PS2 in box” and simply made a typo.

Especially at a time when traveling around the world for location shooting or traditional sets are a lot tougher to manage than a year and a half ago.

I’ll pass on the peanut butter, but I’d eagerly try the rest.

I suspect/hope he’s gonna straddle that hero/villain line, especially since with the arrival of the Disney+ shows that should have enough narrative space to add nuance to an anti-hero sort of character.

You’d think, but 1) the people who made the movie confirmed it was half of all life including animals and such, and 2) Thanos’ nickname (in the comics at least) isn’t ‘The Reasonable Titan.’

It’s nothing extremely specific. Really, it’s just the general tone and the sense of humor. This is exactly the sort of stupid supervillain/superscientist fight the show would get into from time to time, especially in the last couple seasons. It doesn’t help much that, in almost every clip I’ve seen of the show,…

I mean, it’s not like it’s that complicated. The royal family took a PR hit, and they spent a bunch of their ill-gotten wealth in desperate attempts to buy positive headlines from tabloids. And because those same tabloids have been personally snubbed by Harry and Meghan, they probably got a hell of a rate on it.

That interview was the reason I never watched season 5. Like, at first, I could tell myself “Well, they’d already filmed it when this all came out about Tambor, but I can at least watch it for the rest of the cast.” But the way all of the men fell all over themselves to defend him right in front of her just disgusted…

Well, you have to have that one guy whose purpose in the movie is to break one of Waller’s rules and get his head exploded to prove that the implants are real. My money is on either Davidson or Rooker, given how little you see of either of them in the trailer.
