Every season of the Wire was a limited series, if you think about it. So that’s not really an excuse.

Some scenes with the same actors are fine, others are embarrassingly bad. Going back and watching them again, it’s absolutely the writing.

okay

Some of the writing in this show is atrocious.

Let me save people some time. Here is what this shitbait video is:

“Although the actor is not explicitly named in the article, Depp and his lawyers attest Heard’s writing contains a “clear implication that Mrs Depp is a domestic abuser.”

The other day I was in REI trying on shoes and the only good Pavement song Spiral Stairs ever wrote, “Painted Soldiers,” came on. I felt like an old dad - having been a huge fan of a band (relatively) few people knew back in 1997 when the album came out.

Woe, so no one gives a shit about the poorly-developed, by-the-numbers, afterthought of a “universe” of a 20 year old fantasy series that was just “okay” to begin with?

So you expect rich people to write stories about how poor people live? That would require them to research poors or, god forbid, spend time with some. Ick

This is being reported in lots of places. I know this is a tough pill to swallow, but the AV Club doesn’t have some Woodman and Bangstein going out and getting entertainment scoops by blowing executives in studio garages like the real journos over at TMZ.

Here’s something that always bugged me about Temple of Doom. The movie starts in 1935 in a nightclub and Indy has this ride-or-die sidekick that gets killed and is NEVER mentioned again. So let’s say it’s New Year’s Eve 1935.

Thank you for the thoughtful response. I agree that my initial comment, being a reply to the actual asshole comment, was probably a bit confusing. I was on a good sized swig of NyQuil at the time (I am legit sick) that had just started to settle in.

No he did not. I brought him up because there was another story in the AV Club newsfeed at the same time as this one where they used “he” in the headline to refer to Linklater, which tipped me off to “them/they” not being a matter of “style” but of Miller’s preference. Which led me to think - there are a lot of…

Do you respond this way to every legitimate question about where a media outlet finds a source for a fact, my fucktarded friend?

I don’t have a source. Read what I’ve written - I was asking what the source is for members of the media. I only brought up Linklater as evidence that the AVclub doesn’t use “they/them” for everyone they write about. 

So Wikipedia is the source to check for someone’s pronoun preference. Thank you, that was what I was looking for.

I meant that they don’t just default to “they/them” when writing about people. I had no idea about Ezra Miller. So how does a website that can’t get through an article without 18 grammatical errors get this right? Is there a website that catalogues preferred pronouns for writers?

I guess that’s the question I’m asking. And there’s nothing racist about the question because I believe anyone should be referred to by their preferred pronouns, asshole.

Since someone else brought it up, are these Miller’s stated preferred pronouns and how did he get the press on board?

Now do Saving Private Ryan!
