it is worth pointing out that ‘The Do Over’ and ‘The Ridiculous Six’ have a COMBINED Rotten Tomatoes score of 9%.

I mean, I don’t personally get why anyone would spend hours watching someone else play video games, but I wouldn’t call the people who do it fools. Just people with a different idea of what’s entertaining than me.

TBH the “fools” are the ones spending hours watching her streams

Good article. Even if it doesn’t heap enough praise on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I saw that Dan in Real Life was linked to something and I desperately hoped it was a link to Sean’s Dan In Real Life 2 fanfiction. You didn’t let me down, Jesse.

That’s really not true. If someone is truly infringing on their trademark and they don’t do anything about it, there’s a very small possibility that it could be declared to generic to keep at some point down the road. For example, Kleenex allowing people to use their name as a generic name for tissues with no…

I watched the first Harry Potter movie in college and it did nothing for me. Just a boring kids’ movie. Then I was dating someone who was really into Harry Potter when the fourth one came out, so I ended up seeing all the films from that point forward, most of them on opening night. Enjoyed all of them, other than…

I never hit three per week, but I’m fine with that. If I see three per month, it pays for itself. Especially since it includes the ability to pre-purchase tickets without paying a fee.

The What If...? comic could always pull in any random character or event from any point in Marvel’s history, but the show was constrained to a much smaller set of characters and events, which meant none of the cameos…

This question is answered in the very article you’re commenting on.

Twitter brain is a terrible thing. Reading everything you come across in the most cynical way possible has to be exhausting.

Sure. They’re also the most dominant pop cultural force in the world right now so they’re going to take more heat than other properties because of that. And rightfully so. It just bugs me when people distort the facts to make it more insidious than it is.

Why? We’ve been letting Tom Cruise think that a jet is Fonzie’s motorcycle for 35 years and no harm seems to have come from it.

Yeah. I agree with that take. Honestly, any media where violence is shown to be a solution to big problems can be seen as military propaganda on some level. But the MCU is not at all unique in that regard.

I’m not familiar with whatever podcast Jesse Hawken is on, but he’s been tweeting constantly about Eternals for months now. It’s really become a sad obsession with him. The Marvel fans who accuse everyone of being racist for not liking it are certainly awful, but I’ve gotten so sick of all the smug people shitting on…

I think I kind of remember him now that you say he was a grunge rocker.
