I would say it’s my favorite post-2000 Tom Cruise film. And my favorite Doug Liman film. And the best post-Groundhog Day film to riff on that mechanic (yes, better than Palm Springs).

Hmmm, incorrect.

What kind of moron thinks giving a bunch of anonymous gamers a free open forum during their event is a good idea?

Except it isn’t. Pinching the browser forces it into single-page mode where (at my resolution) I get about the same amount per screen as the slides but I don’t have to load an entire new page for each list entry. A short flick of the mouse wheel and I go down to the next. Leagues better than loading 35 individual…

Ads.

Every “best superhero movie list” has to shock us by putting The Dark Knight at #2 and a random Marvel movie at #1. That’s just because no one wants to admit what we all know: The Dark Knight is the best superhero movie, and that’s not likely to change.

“I’d much rather be told there is a wait than have a subpar meal.” right.

Sure. I also expect managers not to seat more than they can realistically serve at one time, whatever their limitation might be. I’d much rather be told there is a wait than have a subpar meal. It’s not ideal but you can only control what you can control and for restaurants a lot of the time that’s how many tables…

If you go to Maui, rent from Kihei Rent a Car (.com)

I learbed about them years ago when I was going there 2 or 3 times a year. they rent used mini vans, Wrnaglers, and Sentras that are dinged, maybe a bit of rust or scratches. Used cars basically.
Why do you want this besides it’s cheaper? Because when you park at a…

If you want to get around the Big Island and see more than a resort, a rental car is the only reasonable way to do it. I would be infuriated if I was a resident, but it’s hard to blame tourists for choosing a legal and economical option.

Is the term latinx not racist? It seems like the application of an English language convention to a gendered, foreign language.

Here’s my take on all this. It’s okay for other people to want to see people that look like them, even if those same people don’t look like YOU. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say LMM probably didn’t see a lot of people who looked like him in media. So when he made some media of his own, he wanted to center it…

I completely agree with you. I also find it odd that the frame here appears to be that Lin Manuel Miranda must be taken to task. If you were going to assemble a list of the Top 5 creators working today who have been instrumental in moving the ball substantially down the field with regards to advancing BIPOC…

Latinx isn’t a thing.

This is what we’ve become arm chairing from social media, oh my how far we have fallen.

No

Do any actual Spanish-speaking people use LatinX?

Okay, I’ll bite. Out of a cast of four leads: 1 lead, or 25% of the main cast, is a dark-skinned black man (Corey Hawkins). He’s not Latinx - but this is still a film where non-light-skinned, black folks are represented. 1 lead, or another 25%, identifies as Afro-Latinx (Leslie Grace), and is Dominican. Yes, she is…

I knew it wouldn’t be long before this movie got criticized for not being all things to all people. I’m glad it happened before it was even released.
