I’m taking that as a compliment; thank you.

Oh...well. There you go.

This is how much of season 2 I glossed over: I didn’t know Caleb was a host. lol

Interesting. I thought Spacey was persona non grata across the board, but I guess he stills gets offers?

Ian Malcolm on recasting parts: “(they’re) so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

Yes!

*Scorsese* and DiCaprio. Tarantino and Jackson.

Our almost daily reminder that Texas government is made up of some hateful cunts.

So, guy not getting employed in one industry went and got a job in another industry?

Where this gets tripped up (slide show aside) is that some of these series had great episodes, or great characters, but were not great shows.

Never watched Helstrom before, but is it really worse than The Inhumans’ “empty-warehouse-with-a-few-desks-in-the-center-as-a-space-exploration-center” approach?

SHE WILL strikes me as the type of film that cannot possibly live up to the promise of a well-tailored trailer, even with a presence such as Krige’s in the lead. I’ve loved her since the start of her film career, and I like the slippery, stylish horror on display here (thanks to A24 for making a better show of this…

I mean, this looks and sounds awful. But I’d like nothing more than for Zombie to find a new niche that does not require me to feel grimy after watching one of his films.

Well, my faves are Let It Bleed and Beggars, but so many of their albums have 3-4 songs I dig, I can’t say this would have been an easy task.

So, did you guys meet or exceed your quota of Thor/Taika pieces?

After two solid episodes, last night was a lot of “I know all the answers but won’t tell you, eat the tuna” and “they’re doing everything the same but I won’t explain it to you, human partner, oh let me pass my hand over an object to access that door”.

Imagine if they had split it over 100 days...

Boseman was a great actor, and Blank Panther was a great character, and the film had a wonderful cultural impact and felt special compared to some of the more cookie-cutter (if still enjoyable) MCU efforts. But putting him first feels very much like a sympathy vote. How do you not put Cap or Stark first? They are the…

There’s enough dark stuff in MoM that I doubt this, but maybe Waititi’s lighter touch - and some of the D+ series - makes it feel that way?
