“It ran for 16 years on the BBC! They showed almost 30 episodes!”

Congratulations . . . ?

Early into the film, Luca (Room’s Jacob Tremblay) defies his parents’ warnings about the dangers of the surface and—making like Tiktaalik before him—scampers onto dry land, his gills and green flesh suddenly, magically disguised.

Two young boys whose true nature is revealed when they are splashed with fluids . . . sure, go ahead.  

I am reminded of a story harkening back to the days when Walt Disney was still alive. Disney, though he had a closet full of Oscars for his animated shorts and live action documentaries, had never gotten a “major oscar,” his features having been passed over or, in the case of Snow White, given an honorary award in…

The androgynous henchperson gets a pretty good revamp in the TV show. The big issue with the character was that, in the books, it’s specifically said that they terrify the children because “they couldn’t tell if it was a man or a woman.” (using “it” for their pronoun sure didn’t help.)

Great, now this is in my head.

I might be in the minority but I’d be down for some late era Genesis games getting remakes like Comix Zone, Ristar, The Ooze, and Vectorman.

It’s an attempt at a step forward (or rather revealing something implemented for a while) but it doesn’t change the fact it’s still a set dressing for a fictional project that will give money to someone in the real world actively pushing to strip transpeople of their civil rights.

Yeah it’s a nice step forward but I’m still not buying this game because I refuse to give Joann my money.

People live there.

Obviously Putin is doing this for Trump and trying to erase the memory of the time Trump got swindled for 10 trillion. Lamestream media doesn’t want you to know this.

Except it also served to erase women in menopause. Or women who've had medical procedures to remove their uterus. It was the stupidest of stupid gender essentialisms based entirely on her stupid paranoia.

Oh 100%. You can get like 80%+ of the back catalog on Switch. But I also can’t for the life of me believe they’re developing a “real” console next year. Has to be a retro console or as Baka said, a steam machine or something. There’s no way they’re single-handedly supporting a new console in 2020. They couldn’t even…

“Definition of ‘countryside’: to kill Piers Morgan.”

Seems insulting to Brenda Fricker (the actual pigeon lady).

Question for the AV Club staff: when did the site’s house style officially change to “be so smug and snarky that whatever credible point might be buried in the article is invalidated”?

I’ll have you know that I loved the very fun recent musical remake of Valley Girl!

I actually thought the first Christmas Chronicles movie was pretty fun for family friendly Christmas entertainment. I’d rather watch Kurt Russel as Santa Clause a hundred times before having to sit through watching Will Ferrel as an Elf again.

Giving opportunity to more people is a good thing. Allowing literally more voices into the scene is a good thing. The idea that white folks are the Most Talented and other folks getting a chance to try out means that these naturally worse voice actors of color are gonna ruin animation is a pretty shitty takeaway here,…
