“I want to believe that this is true,” he said, regarding the script change.

Anyone who thinks “picking a side” is a realistic approach to this conflict is in a fantasy. Give this a read (really, do it! It won’t hurt you to read something you disagree with: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/10/why-israeli-officials-screened-footage-hamas-attack/675735/)

I watch porn, and agree with Cavill.

I mean, this just sounds like a matter of taste. I happen to enjoy highly choreographed fight scenes, and I’m perfectly fine if they go up to 10 minutes long. I also think the element of conflict in a fight scene makes them inherently more compelling than a sex scene. Which is probably why, outside of porn, you don’t…

What’s also not needed are those highly choreographed fight scenes that seem to go on for eternity. The way they’re depicted, it seems so improbable that any part of these fights could go past 10-seconds before someone needs an ambulance. Are either one of these guys asking themselves, “Does this 8-minute fight…

Quite frankly, I was annoyed that the Dixie Chicks — if I remember this correctly — made those comments at a concert overseas. Forget that! If you’re going to go that route, you do whole Sid Vicious and tell a bunch of half-drunk Oklahomans how shit really is. That’d be ballsy. Or ovar-y. Complaining about George W. to…

I think we tend to root for characters who are proactive, and don’t always care much about the morality what they’re doing. Walter White blowing up his foe with a pipe bomb hidden in an old man’s wheelchair is fun and satisfying. Skylar White being horrified that her husband murdered a man at a nursing home is . . .…

“Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray steal the show in this coming-of-age dramedy”

I’ve never gotten the impression that Nolan “clearly craves” Oscar glory. Most of his movies wouldn’t fit your typical “Oscar-bait” criteria and even Oppenheimer was more of a passion project for him.

I don’t know if it’s the concussions or just some good, old fashioned, right wing indoctrination, but Aaron Rodgers used to present as pretty normal and even thoughtful.

That is the way that business works.  when something is no longer profitable, it is abandoned.  

The article mentions nothing about the amount of profit the California franchises make (as a percentage or otherwise). So the article doesn’t address the point at all.

This is an extraordinarily stupid statement on multiple levels.

 Concluded isn't the same as canceled.

a good chunk of this list is ass and purely based on non-musical aspects like music videos and nostalgia cringe. there are a LOT of covers worst than what is listed here. but in the spirit of the list, What Makes This Song Stink does a deep dive on American Woman stinking.

No no no, you’ve missed it!! The absolute WORST cover of all time is Taylor Swift doing “September” by Earth Wind & Fire. What she did to that song should be labeled a hate crime. Took all the soul and fun right out of it and replaced it with sad white girl acoustics. I will never forgive her.

Not to pick on GnR, but Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door is even worse.  

THANK YOU. Finally, someone with the courage to call out Disturbed’s cover of “Sound of Silence” and point out that it SUUUUUUUUCKS.

Taylor Swift’s cover of September is one of the worst things I’ve ever heard.
