My thoughts exactly. Why be evil if you can't enjoy yourself?

(W)hat happens with the advent of the AI CEO? My guess is less income inequality and a diminished oligarchical structure.

My ongoing problem with the MI franchise is its focus on Cruise as a super agent. Nothing against Cruise himself , the concept should be more of an ensemble piece, imo. Like the Dirty Dozen or the Suicide Squad, MI is about dangerous people on a dangerous mission where you are never quite sure of loyalties and who is…

Now if only someone could catch all the "Wiseguy" references in the series, we'll be in business...

Agreed. And if the Avengers movie could have supported more than one sarcastic loudmouth, Reynolds would have been a great candidate for Hawkeye as that character is usually presented in comics.

I can still remember the chorus to their utopian anthem:

You know, my own universe might be a book of haiku.

I did not claim she did. Like Republicans who realize they have gay relatives and find themselves supporting LGBT rights and same sex marriage, Kelly's sympathies usually align with people in situations very similar to her own (maternity leave, equal pay etc.). Her record of racial sensitivity is decidedly mixed.…

Dude! That's why it works every time. The heroes are like, "surely he's not pulling the old 'villain allows himself to be captured trope. He couldn't possibly be stupid enough to think that would work.'".

+1

But the gay millenials got Q and Afro-UKians — or whatever they call them— got Moneypenny. So straight whites are down two on the diversity scoreboard.

Isn't that essentially what Looking is?

Yes: Lost in Space, as you stated, pulled as much from the children's story (and Disney film of the era) Swiss Family Robinson as it pulled from the sci fi of the day. By its second season, LIS was purely a kid's show. FF, for its era, was pulling its influences from the adult edge of the sci fi segment. That means…

Wouldn't complain, but I'd rather have Bradley Cooper, who could better capture the slimy, ruthless part of Indy's character.

The synopsis is not out of sync with the trailer. The trailer alludes to those elements without overtly revealing them.

The FF are science adventurers and their primary conflicts have always involved science based, mysteries, villains and monsters. Their first adventure was to stop an asteroid from hitting the Earth. Their next was stopping an invasion by alien shape shifters. Their greatest battle was against a cosmic being who was…
