Charles Emmerson Winchester III was NOT a Brit. He was very famously from Boston -- hence the uppercrustean accent. 

Robert Baratheon is exactly the kind of dude to ditch his family and responsibilities to get drunk at the hunting camp. I honestly thought that made Cersei’s plan more feasible. It wouldn’t be difficult to convince him to get liquored up and go chase some boar’s down.

I will happily show up opening night for Nope 2: Oh, HELL Naw!

Do you... know what the Midwest actually looks like?

Having spent most of my childhood in Kentucky, I can assert that no one there talks like that.

Also, no Kentuckian would be named ‘Benoit’.

I think the issue is the word “music” in the VMAs. That link above is clearly a video but it ain’t music 

THEIR DEATHS WERE NOT “UNTIMELY”. THEY HAPPENED PRECISELY ON SCHEDULE.

Enabled it by existing as a bystander is going to be a tough sell. Sanz is a goner.

Right.

Never back down from this. 

The IRS’s concern is that the company taking a loss on the asset can no longer generate revenue from it in the future. Since WBD wouldn’t be generating revenue from pirated copies, as they are basically stolen property, the IRS wouldn’t care. Also, the asset in question here is the costs associated with producing the…

Just have to thank you for your write up! Every bit of it was understandable and informative.

Because Zaslav helped make the Discovery brand super profitable through a focus on cheap, unscripted, reality TV crap and thinks that’s what streaming services should be. In the last earnings call Discovery+ was far more profitable than HBO Max, even with about a third of subscribers, mostly through ad revenue. He’s…

It’s purely accounting. After a merger the purchasing company has a window of time (which expires mid-August in this case) to write off the current assets of the purchased company that it doesn’t want to retain. For unreleased stuff like Batgirl, WBD can right off every bit of money they’ve spent. Released films are…

Their calculus is that 10 shows that cost $100,000 to make might get more subscriptions than one show that cost a million to make, regardless of the moral or even financial value of the IP itself.

This, of course, is stupid as hell.

Now, if it makes anyone feel better, most American lives don’t seem to matter to him either.

Dude, ease the hell up. They’re not saying that Joker and Harley should never be in a romantic relationship ever again. They’re saying that their Joker and their Harley, the ones appearing in their show, will never be in a relationship again if they have anything to say about it. Read the fucking article better before…

Most theaters don’t give a shit about showing small films because there’s no money to be made in them. Even rep theaters throw in a screening of ‘The Rock’ or somesuch blather every now and again so everyone on staff can get paid. I must’ve missed this magical time of independent cinema where theaters were packed…

But... but the cinema! Where else are French children supposed to drink wine?
