After seeing her in Ant-Man and the Wasp, I actually found myself talking with someone about the idea of an actual direct sequel to Batman Returns with her along with Keaton returning, Billy Dee as an elderly two-face, that sort of thing. I think it would play surprisingly well. I think Pat Hingle is dead, but shit,…

Sadly, the involvement of Anderson and the younger Herbert leaves me less than optimistic. Their novels started well, but quickly became a slog. I’ll hold out the smallest hope that they translate better to the big screen.

They did (if jokingly) state that animal populations were halved, too. Do animals have souls? YMMV.

It’s like Professor Oak came out of retirement.

On the other hand, can you imagine what he could do with DC if they brought him over there?

There’s also this little matter from the article, which should have been the in the first paragraph so that people wouldn’t get infuriated halfway through, then dive to the comments screaming for blood:

First, the name doesn’t help. Either name. It sounds like a medication. Second, Oreos just taste better. I don’t know if it’s subtly different ingredients, or a different ratio of ingredients, but Hydrox has always tasted flat to me, even in blind taste tests.

Oh, you’re just adorable. So if you’ve done one shit thing in your life, you’re just a shit human being forever in spite of any activities that aren’t. Noted, shit human being.

You can’t really call something a multi million dollar franchise and say it cant’t get its shit together, it’s too double-thinky. Even professionals who publish the occasional turd are still of a higher caliber than amateurs.

I don’t know, man, I tend to find that people who dispense writing tips in internet forums tend to be the self-published or non-published variety. If you don’t have an agent and a publishing house behind you, maybe let the professionals do what they do professionally and you, I’m assuming, do as an amateur.

Since the dog is the first version of the alien we see, and the previews showed enough for people to be aware there was some kind of shapeshifting alien in the movie, I think we can overlook that one.

Look, you can’t imagine how bad my day is going to be when I spent it walking around without my left shoe.

Ugh, do you want hookworm? Because this is how you get hookworm.

No, because that doesn’t mean anything—“cancel” doesn’t mean “do genocide to.”

This is why we should just got to a flat sales tax and leave payroll out of it.

Indeed, it’s just straight up awful looking.

Looks flat to me.

Indeed, for example the insane reaction I heard from someone else based on this single still image:
