Me too. The 2016 Suicide Squad was such an incoherent mess. I’m genuinely curious what Ayer’s original intent was with that film. I can’t imagine that a recut will address all the movie’s flaws, but I’m interested to see how many problems can be traced to the film’s editing as opposed to underlying structural issues

I love science fiction and innovative blending of genres, but this wasn’t that. I remember being intrigued by the idea initially but turned off by the trailers. The trailers made the film look very boring and predictable. When Cowboys and Aliens began popping up on TV, I found I was more apt to watch other generic and

...based off a book based off a newspaper story.

There’s a lot of steps there. Maybe, for efficiency’s sake, just go straight from news stories to musicals more often.

For example, the big news story today are about the end of the eviction moratorium and of course the ongoing pandemic. Maybe someone should make a

First, I completely support SETI and any project or mission that furthers our understanding of the Earth, the universe, and aids us in the quest to find evidence of extraterrestrial life.

But what I don’t like about this is how Loeb seems to conflate UAPs and Oumuamua so effortlessly while also throwing in the notion

Best - Tell everyone that ONLY Bezos, Gates, and Soros (and the other wealthiest individuals) can get it.

My unvaccinated family members have remained convinced since day 1 that Covid is a hoax perpetrated by the “billionaires” to control us, and to sell expensive vaccines (and there’s a smattering of nonsense about

And move where exactly? You can move to the Gulf Coast and be pummeled by hurricanes. Move to California and the Pacific North West and get surrounded by forest fires. Move to the South West and suffer Drought. Or move to New England and... I don’t know... Root for the Patriots? So, you’re pretty much screwed either

Okay.... okay.... but define “day”. 

Genetically modified babies are a bad idea? Says WHO?!

Seriously though, don’t mod your tots boys and girls. It voids the warranty.

I’m sure they would argue that SNL was funny back then and had more class or something. But it doesn’t matter. Hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance is a feature not a bug to these people

Dear FCC. I’m mad because I am watching a show I do not enjoy and want you to do something about it. I’m exercising my first amendment right to demand that you arrest all late-night TV personalities that insult the sitting president. This is America and no one should have the right to mock our great leader. If you do

I agree with what you said in response to another about how violence is wrong. It is. But I’m uncertain what violence occurred here, nor should we rush to the defense of instigators playing the role of victims. While individuals, regardless of ideology, can act in bad faith, I assure you that the people telling the

White supremacists fleeing in the face of civic opposition is not a violation of free speech. Please explain how it is.

I don’t quite get the “shrug” element you see, but I understand how it might seem callous to focus on such frivolous an aspect of the withdrawal. Yet, I actually find this piece quite thought-provoking.

The author isn’t being dismissive of the lives lost or uncertain future facing the Afghans. He doesn’t address any

I just assumed that the future humans were following Zapp Brannigan’s strategy against the hordes of rampaging killbots in the Octillion system. That’s the only reasonable justification I could come up with for sending the endless waves of Canon fodder to their deaths when other more logical solutions were available.

Again, without knowing any of the specifics and assuming it can be scaled cheaply, then any place that has access to power and sea water could benefit. One of the “positives” of climate change (to but the BBC spin on it, https://gizmodo.com/bbc-lists-positive-climate-change-impacts-in-study-gu-1847218954) is that more

Here’s a few I would like to see.

1) Purge: Jury (or maybe just Purgery?)
A taught court room drama where an individual on trial for a crime he didn’t commit must take up arms to defend his accusers and court officials when they all inadvertently get trapped in the court house during the Purge.

2) Purge: Flow Control

Without reading the article, does this remove other contaminates, or just ions?

If this process could run off of solar and be decentralized, I could see it being a boon for the many small island developing states facing future water insecurity. Storm surge and rising sea levels can salinate local ground water supplies

This is the same reason Ask Jeeves rebranded as Ask.com, right?

Seriously though, bullying is a problem and while corporate missteps may exacerbate it, I don’t think it’s fair to lay too much blame on Amazon’s callousness. Amazon could change Alexa’s name to some non-human appellation (and perhaps they should), but

Oh, absolutely. From the UN to the USDA and all points in between, agricultural adaptation strategies are an important topic. But, while adaptation strategies are vital and we should be planning ahead, there is a difference between honestly discussing survival mechanisms and putting a positive spin on climate change.

I mean, it’s always good to look at the silver linings of any potentially negative situation.
