“Well, it’s a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there’s a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as The Pentavirate, who run everything in the world, including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.” - Stuart MacKenzie.

I honestly have no idea how this is going to work as a show other than adding padding and filler to what was a taut lean thriller.

Agreed, I read that and thought, “You mean Republicans, Charlie?”

But the problem is that the movie treats Sam Rockwell’s bigotry and violent behavior as minor flaws that don’t need to be corrected.

The movie wasn’t really about racism or violence, it was about anger. Most of the actions taken by the two leads were driven by anger, and any perceived redemption arc for either character was about them learning to let go of their anger, though the movie ends before it’s clear whether or not the lessons they learned…

Which is fine for me as how often do you think bigots really change? It made the film feel more real rather than some pablum where he reforms and sees the error of his ways

This GoFundMe is being taken down today at 5 PM PST, but if you would like to throw in a few bucks to help the Boys & Girls Club of Harlem in NYC and buy tickets for a whole lot of awesome kids to go see ‘Black Panther’ next month (the majority of whom are of color), click this link. Yes, it is authentic. Thanks.

that’s because it looks awesome as fuck

it’s gonna be the first MCU intro movie to break a billion worldwide, calling it now.

I don’t know if I see it quite that cynically. It’s a weird thing we’ve become the last decade or so, where the late-night comedians are pretty much expected to do the heavy lifting of the in-depth sit-down interviews that used to be done by the actual media.

Its basically so Colbert himself can avoid criticism for NOT bringing it up. 

Fine, ship. It’s your choice. But don’t petition the CREATORS of the fiction to make your ‘ship’ (god, I hate that word) canon, and then get pissed off when they don’t.

I mean, the whole website at this point is basically Univision fucking a corpse. So, probably not.

I hope this isn’t true. I’m about halfway through Lego Marvel Superheroes 2, and it would be a shame if I sacrificed getting 100% because I refused to rescue the Lego Stan Lee trapped in every level.

Well, Stan Lee has been raping the corpse of Jack Kirby for years.

Harlan Ellison prepares a lawsuit claiming he invented the concept of harassing a personal care aide.

If he did do some of those things he’s clearly horrible, but “my wages to do a nude scene weren’t as high as I would like” is a really lukewarm inclusion in this.

Yeaaaah, I think that’s a pretty weird thing to get angry at him about. He said: “I want to take a moment to just say thank you to Eve, who always stood by me for 22 years. And my four children — Clara, Esther, Jamyan and Anouk — I love you. ... There wouldn’t have been any Emmit Stussy without David Thewlis and…

Outrage is a bubble economy.

They say something, you write a scathing takedown of their inadequate responses.
