The extended runtime did this season absolutely no favors. We spend so much time with basketball guy or other superfluous characters and it drags. The Satanic Panic storyline could have been dropped and we’d lose nothing. The Steve/Nancy thing could have been dropped. Just let them be friends - it’s healthy and normal…

Either 11 killed a bunch of children and that’s trauma she never thought to mention til now or Dr. Brenner, being our viewpoint character in the scene and not seeing the full events, missed 11 doing battle with an evil (probably psychic) person who came to murder everyone for evil (probably psychic) reasons.

I’ve brought up the cancellation of this show at least once a week since it’s been cancelled. Netflix dropped the ball spending $30 million on each ep of Stranger Things 4 and canceling this. Utterly ridiculous because they were the same style show! Less Goonies and less classic songs, but it was a period piece cosmic…

Oh it’s not like it never happens. But the end results are so manipulated, so stitched together from disconnected takes that the movies lately have just looked terrible. I really don’t think there’s been a good looking Marvel film since 2017. That’s not to say some of them don’t have a great shot here and there since…

I find most these things mediocre at best, but I get that an insane amount of people really like these MCU movies and think they’re gods gift to filmmaking... for some reason. That said I’d still wager that even the most hardcore fans are going to point out that with the latest movies and shows it is very clear that…

The one thing I want from this season is to know why it costs $30 million an episode (so roughly $270 million total for the season) and why Netflix killed off the similarly themed Archive 81 after only being out for two months and barely received any promotion.

Finally! I get to roleplay in a world where runaway capitalism has irreparably damaged the environment and bodily autonomy is revoked for most people who are all stuck, and in many cases literally created for, an extremely stratified caste system that makes state violence impossible to avoid.

And if there’s one thing we should never do it’s underestimate Sony’s desperation or we’ll end up with Spidercide starring Logan Marshall-Green.

Either you’ve taken my joke to a new level of metacommentary or you’ve entirely missed it...

Didn’t read the article, but cannot WAIT to see Aang, Toph and Zuko again. Really missed those characters over the years. I loved Korra’s story, but I feel like there was so much left to tell with the original Team Avatar. 

All I can do is offer you a simple, effective way to deal with this minor inconvenience. What you do with that is up to you. I wish you luck with all your future first world problems.

I think you’re misremembering a lot of what was going on with the John Wick franchise. The release of John Wick 2 and John Wick 3 were over two years apart. February 2017 and May 2019 respectively for the sequels.

Then covid slammed the brakes on John Wick 4 because Keanu got delayed making The Matrix Resurrections in…

If you’re on a desktop browser you can just adjust the width of the window so that all posts end up on one page and you can just scroll down like normal. I just pop the window out of my Chrome browser and reduce the width and it’s fine. No slide necessary.

I want to see Old Man Harrington which is about Steve Harrington time traveling back to the 80s from the year 203X. He’s in his 60s and one of the few surviving humans after the Upside Down apocalypse ravaged the earth.

Got around to watching the first two episodes of Outer Range last night. Really not sure how I feel about it. Nothing in it is particularly compelling. Honestly if they dropped the sci-fi premise altogether it might work better as a straight up crime drama? None of the JJ Abrams “mystery box”-esque shtick is really…

All the messiness can be traced to some exec at Nickelodeon not understanding two shits about anything I’m sure. That show was so jerked around, first being a limited order, the expended, then reduced, it’s schedule shuffled around, episodes leaked, moved to digital only. I have to imagine that’s an insane amount of…

Each episode (nine in total for season 4) is reported to be over an hour long, with suggestions from the Duffer Bros et al that some would be around 90 minutes. That is, essentially, around a 10 - 12 hour movie at least. That is much more that Suicide Squad 2 and Peacemaker’s runtimes all added up. By hours. That…

I haven’t read that. I’ll have to look into it. It’s always weird to be when people downplay the horror genre like it never had anything to say back in through the decades 

The slasher genre, at least at its height in the 80s, wasn’t meant to chastise promiscuous teens. You’re removing the context of the era the films were made in. It was meant to chastise and annoy Reaganites of 80s who generally wanted those they saw as undesirables in America (recreational users, the sexually…

I thought the player beat the game without damaging anything and I was ready to be impressed, but it’s just a no damage taken run which is whatever
