Hell, they’ve done better <i>recently.</i> . The Bale/Nolan Batman films are far from unassailable, but you can’t accuse them of being generally incompetent and/or uninteresting.

I feel like DC movies can be optimistic and not goofy. We have a goofy DC universe. It’s on the CW and it’s wonderful. But the movie universe can be big. It can be bright. It can be earnest and optimistic. And it can do that without cribbing from Marvel’s notes. Wonder Woman did it pretty well, if imperfectly.

I would usually be OK with an average blockbuster. But this is the Justice League. This should be an watershed moment for comicbook films. It should be an event.

There are jokes here—actual, funny jokes—though some of them are sadly lost to bad timing and overly busy sound design.

As a long-time player...yea, saw that coming.

I know right? The internet is a 1980's sitcom dad who wants to try something different for dinner.

It’s a great Devo song, though.

It’s especially sad that this comes on the day Future Man premiered on Hulu, a show that Julie and Billy would have torn apart.

See here’s the thing. The things Trump wants to do, if he succeeds, they are bad or dumb things.

I’m not big on forgiveness. I think forgiveness is warranted if the abuser seems genuinely sorry BEFORE they are discovered. Also, requests for forgiveness should be private so the abuser cannot use it as a way to show what a great guy/gal they are. Forgiveness lets people off the hook and human nature shows that most…

But we’re not generally okay with serial killers walking around. In both of these cases, we’re talking about serial predators, not someone who made a one-time mistake. Also, there’s a lot of real estate between “you’re allowed to not be behind bars anymore” and “I want to see you on a movie screen.”

I don’t know about “complicit,” but I’m not buying that she had no idea who he was.

Becky is being replaced as manager by Sarah Chalke.

I wanted the sword. I got the sword I then joined a Survival match in competitive crucible and straight up murdered people with it. So it worked out well for me.

Weirdly though... doesn’t that make John Wick a little worse? Mainly because it portrays how some gun owners imagine what a gunfight looks like. It’s like the modern version of Rambo — murder with no consequences.

On z nation this week, one of the characters comments that their new truck smells like fried shit, and the other character explains that “there’s way more grease traps than gas stations” in the zombie apocalypse.

This show has become *hysterically* terrible. When they are down to having radioactive zombies eat the cartoon of a tiger to try and generate pathos, you know it’s over.
