It just seems unnecessary to write an op-ed about it entirely. I get he has a movie coming out, but it sort of seems like he could just not talk about movies he’s not a part of. Whether his points are legit or not, it’s just opening him up to fresh criticism -- I have to admit his Hitchcock comments were weird -- and…

No she fucking isn’t. She’s *barely* a character. And she’s had, what? Like 3, 4 movies to be more than “Whedonesque ‘strong female’ who can do flippy spinny moves, is sort of a villain, and is painted blue.”?

The problem with that road is a vast majority of the films that were popular when Scorsese was starting out also weren’t high art. It was the studio system which allowed for prestige films to be made alongside pulp. The death of the studio system is what killed those films, more than the MCU. And the current path was…

Just don’t say they’re “not cinema”, Marty. It’s as ridiculous as saying ‘War and Peace’ is a book but ‘The Fellowship of the Ring’ is not a book. Respective quality can be argued all you like, but they’re the same type of thing. They exist on the same plane.

Soylent Green’s Stray Observations: Music Man Will Never Get to the Fireworks Factory Edition:

the mummy act was good, because it was purely nonsensical. I don’t think you need to learn a profound lesson about abusive relationship for it to work.

I’m calling it. By 8:00 PM tomorrow, those racist and/or homophobic social media posts by Cinderblock are going to resurface.

Probably has something to do with it being beyond detrimental to her health. I feel the inability to properly move, diabetes and drastically shortened life expectancy is probably not ideal.

TLJ has that whole sequence of saving the horse things that made me go, “oh yeah, this is basically a kids movie. Maybe I’m too old for this shit.”

Meeeh. Gotta agree, this has felt pretty lackluster in terms of hype, but I’m also not super optimistic about where this is going. I went along with TFA because it was fun, and it was obviously setting things up, but man...TLJ really didn’t do anything for me, besides generating conversations with multiple people…

l, Robot is kind of fun in a stupid way

Hoo boy, in a career with Wild Wild West, I Robot, and After Earth, this movie is his biggest cinematic fiasco?

I give this film 5 Bags of Popcorn and 1776 American Flag pendants.

This is exactly like that time Itchy played Scratchy’s skeleton like a xylophone, and strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something?

Married Incels are the most dangerous.

You know, that “People who look like they don’t have sex” and “balls backed up” can apply to us long married folks you know...

It happens. Lest we forget, Terrence Howard was the highest-paid actor in the original IRON MAN, not Robert Downey Jr.

Right? All we need is for them to decide that a thumbs-up suddenly means “I hate Jews”. Then we all have to stop giving thumb-ups? Fuck that. I’m keeping “ok”.

If you don’t get the difference between punching up and punching down I don’t know what to tell you.
