After those first 3 episodes, the only things that mattered to me were 355, President Mom, and that monkey. Yorick and Hero seem kind of a mess, but at least Thirlby is a strong actor. I don’t need weekly episodes of Meghan McCain After The Apocalypse.

Did a memo go out that said celebrated directors should piss all over popular entertainment this year?

Like the ABCs of Death films, the VHS collections usually have a percentage of genuinely great stuff amidst the dreck. Well, except Viral which was disappointing. My only question mark is if the Timo segment will be gory and great or gory and awful.

Every time I worry the show will become stale they do some outlandish shit that cracks me up. I absolutely love the new season. The only question mark I had was why Guillermo was huddled with a corpse.

No, the Mandarin/Trevor stuff in IM3 was great. Anyone who couldn’t appreciate a comedic swerve like that in their action film needs to lighten up.

Or as Mad Magazine would have said, Blecch Mirror.

Blah Mirror?

I’m kinda 50-50 on Schrader’s work, so I’m always curious to see what he brings. I think performances have a lot to do with whether I will find his films powerful or not. Having said that, the guy made MISHIMA, which is a) one of my all-time favorites, and b) a staggeringly beautiful film...so who knows?

This made me whip back up to look at the picture again. Bravo.

This seems like as good a place as any to say I think Netflix has really dropped off in quality programming over the past few years. The last original Netflix film I recall being legitimately wowed by was THE OLD GUARD, and I dug the series BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR. But unless they catch a

Does Taylor look bad? She had a legit business reason for whoever she was to stop her side gigs. And the woman’s attitude was shitty enough I initially hoped Taylor would fire her.

I find them both pretty enjoyable, but man, have two people ever played more parts that were essentially interchangeable from film to film? It’s Formidable Guy and The Snark Machine, Chapter 17.

Don’t take this the wrong way: maybe you don’t watch enough movies. Or just have bad taste. Okay, you probably could take that second part the wrong way.

Anyone else tired of the small child inserted into hardcore action thriller to soften the character’s initial resolve?

I don’t know about y’all, but for me when the fucking snotty Merovingian sends that lady a piece of cake that makes her orgasm was the most annoying part of those shitty sequels.

Several of these, you seem to be confusing problematic assholes with “villains”.

A whole lot of plot complaints for a show about alternate realities.

White and Japanese are - clearly - not in the same ballpark, fucko.

It must really sting to hear that one of your heroes may have committed a gross, heinous act. But I’ve read enough comments that equate to “believe women...unless more than X years have passed” to know that some people will never kill their darlings.

In retrospect, I’m shocked that DISTRICT 9 got a Best Picture nomination. That film does not hold up well.
