It also needs an edit so that the end of the commercial is like the end of the movie Society where this woman, her husband, the bike and the Peloton trainers all doing The Shunting.

I was holding my breath waiting for the cast list and growing ever more skeeved out as I was afraid she was also going to be the star doing raunchy nude sex scenes while her dad directed. 

You just answered your own question. Chelsea Handler is the producer and star and it’s very likely she is the one who canned everyone else, especially given the reputation she’s earned from those who have worked under her. Erica Rivinoja has proven herself to be a good comedy writer. Handler has not and gets worse as…

I love watching some of the people caping for her now are the same people who were calling her a cop a year ago. Now she’s a victim of racism, but people were side-eyeing her while she was being expected to prove her blackness to Charlamange. A lot of you are straight up fucking phonies who helped bring this woman…

Amen. This site and even The Root threw plenty of shade at her early on and when she was having to do shit like go be interviewed by that asshole Charlamagne The God and be asked to prove her blackness, there’s plenty of blame to throw towards the people who are now pretending they weren’t the ones to throw her under…

Do we have to immediately ruin everything that people like? Everything nice has to be run into the ground so quickly. We don’t even have any merchandise for adorable little Noam Chomsky yet and we’re going to make everyone sick of him.

I’ve preferred the more serious takes, but also agree that it might be time to give it a rest. I think at this point it’s dangerously close to hitting that point where no one has any interest in Bond. Let it sit for a few years and maybe people will be excited by a different take and the return of some clever camp.

I just couldn’t stay invested in it by the last hour or so. The characters didn’t draw me in, most of it felt weightless and it began to feel repetitive both towards past films and from scene to scene. If you’re going to have some sprawling history of the mob’s involvement with the Teamsters and then treat it as a…

3 1/2 hours isn’t outrageous for a great, sweeping film but this 3-1/2 hours feels like 6. I’m surprised people are fawning over The Irishman the way they are. It’s not terrible by any means, but another version of Goodfella/Casino filtered through existential boomer ennui really drags at 3 1/2 hours. 

I’ve read that it was mainly budgetary and the creators made some really dumb decisions financially that pushed the decision for Amazon to just cut them off. 

“It’s not just mediocre food, it’s also Hep C!”

So, since I haven’t seen him live and didn’t agree to an NDA, I’m free to say that I don’t think he’s funny and seems like a prick? That’s okay, right?

Ever think we’d get to a time where a show was squeaky clean while Howard Stern was a part of it and all the controversy would start after he left?

I would like to make fun of you goofy ass white people for this, but I’m Chinese and my people think grinding up tiger bones in your tea makes you dick hard, so I really can’t.

Seems like Superman is probably in that same box as Alien, Terminator and Predator where you should just put them away for a long time because no one is really interested anymore. 

Josh Trank also got canned, which is understandable and Garreth Edwards sort of got the boot, even though his name is still on Rogue One. Sounds like a significant portion of it is not his film after they took it away from him. Seems like there was someone else too, but I’m drawing a blank.

He should probably also stop talking shit and airing his behind the scenes grievances or he’s going to end up directing straight to streaming movies about 5 headed sharks for Asylum.

Jenn Wasner is my dream gf too, so I’ll allow the overzealous coverage.

It’s a little easier for him be more measured about it now that the stupidity has died down. It was to hard to wade through who was giving legitimate criticism and who was concern trolling when you had the mouth breathers going full on hateful in the middle of it. He can see now that it got overblown and admits it.

My feeling too. I like most of what he did and I was all for being done with the past and ushering in new characters and stories, but it doesn’t work as the second film in a trilogy where the first film set it all up as fan service and finishing off the old stories. His ideas should have either been the first film or…
