I’m sure this might be great, but between the actors mainly known for comedy doing all the dramatic emoting, the various wigs and period clothes and dramatic facial hair, and the pop song slowed down just so we will all remember to feel angsty, this seems like a parody rather than a genuine trailer.

It looks like the beard was drawn on with a sharpie...in about 2 minutes. 

“DC did the multiverse stuff with Crisis on Infinite Earths, they embraced the movie/TV universes, and they didn’t spend time setting up a character to be a dick joke.”

I think speculating is fun to a degree, but not if you let it consume you and then become outraged based on parameters you and no one else set in the first place (like the people who were furious over Evan Peters mostly just being cast as a wink and a dumb joke).

Not even getting into what he said, I feel like we’ve moved past the point where Jon Stewart pops up again every few years to make a pronouncement for us. I still wish he’d just stayed the mostly funny guy he was in the ‘90s before he was appointed one of the consciences of America. 

It’s just so awful to think about. I feel like anything I’d say would be a cliche but as soon as I read about what happened the senseless numbing feeling was impossible to escape. I’m so sorry for her wife and her loved ones. 

I think FatWS needed at least one more episode. It could have helped tie up Bucky’s story (and make him seem less like he was included just because they know he has a lot of fans), bridge more of a gap between John Walker’s episode 5 persona (his longtime best friend’s death, killing a man in a rage, side effects of…

Justin Theroux appeared in a Lynch project that was heavily reassembled after the pilot process (Mulholland Drive) and a Lynch project that was completely incomprehensible (Inland Empire), so no wonder he was confused.

The film quality of the At Home shows steadily improved over the weeks, although the writing steadily declined for me as it hit back into the normal SNL patterns. If memory serves Kyle Mooney was the one who really seemed to feel at home (no pun intended), for obvious reasons. 

Seth Meyers was very much in his element in the at-home shows, just interacting with family or the little trinkets in his various makeshift office sets. His timing is better without waiting for the audience to laugh. 

It’s a well-made trailer (for whatever that’s worth), but a part of me feels like this story is already so well known and no one can tell Tammy Faye’s story better than she did herself.

Catherine O’Hara also did a very funny impression of Tammy Faye for SCTV, but when I saw the trailer I kept thinking of Jan and how good Jan would have been in this part. 

Or Taika Waititi, who is clearly having the time of his life on these things.

We’re in an era where independent films probably need website pieces less than ever. I think it’s more the endless, toxic social media discourse, where many who claim to hate big Hollywood films but need to endlessly talk about them to get revenue or attention, that buries quality work.

Fantastic 4 is a very risky proposition, and so is X-Men to a lesser degree. They are mostly left with Spider-Man as a near-guaranteed property. For that reason I do think the “next big test” articles are truer here than they have been since probably Guardians of the Galaxy. The main problem is that, while you can’t…

Yes, another gem. I always forget that isn’t called “This Time The Girl Is Gonna Stay.”

I don’t mind the cover, but I love the original Hooked On a Feeling. B.J. absolutely soars on those vocals and like the best singers, makes you feel you are there with them. This is also what makes his cover of I’m So Lonesome special. Imagine having that as your first hit...

He was absolutely faultless on the Mary Tyler Moore Show, especially when he got to do more than recycle the same bickering lines with Ted or Sue Ann. My strongest memory is the one where Mary realized that he was in love with her. Such a sweet, delicate, sad performance. That show had such a superb cast, but was…

Wow. That’s one of the sketches I wish I had been able to see live - I imagine it has a very different atmosphere.

The only real knowledge I have is that any time they were put into the Avengers I mostly just felt bored (I think the time they had Sersi join and mostly just be in a love triangle or whatever was around the period I lost interest in current Avengers).
